CITY BEAUTIFUL
MEMBERS BUSY

From Thursdays Daily.
Members of the City Beautiful AS
ISOLATION have not fallen asleep, but
are going over the city with eyes
wide open, judging from the number
of complaints they have filed during
the past few days with Mayor w. H.
Duncan. They charge that the bust
ness streets, which were kept in good
order for a while following the or
ganization of the association, are al
ready becoming unsightly again, and
ask the mayor to assess few fines
for carelessness in this respect, in or
der to show that it is a violation of
the city ordinances. Other offenses
to which the association calls atten-
ton are the rank growth of weeds
and grass on many sidewalks and
streets, the unkempt condition ot the
railway right-of- way and the condi-
ton of stone sidewalks, which have
sunk too low in the ground and are
covered with grass and dirt.

Her Remarks Are Always Apt and

That There Is Absolute Sim

DO you remember what Mrs. Gregg
wore at that reception OF yours two
years ago. asked Mrs. Crane.
No" replied Mrs. Chase, but re-
member what she said. After most OF
the others had made the usual polite
remarks and gone away, Mrs. Gregg
came up, and putting out her hand,
said, with her refreshing sincerity:
You've given me a good afternoon
and now must bid you one"
That is Why | asked you," said Mrs.
Crane, with interest. Although I've
met Mrs. Gregg 100 times, cannot re-
member distinctly what she wore at
any time; but can remember so many
things that she has said and just how
she looked when she said them.
u remember once continued Mrs.
Crane, after a recital by Miss Patillo.
the women crowded round her and
said all sorts OF inane things in the
effort 10 impress the pianist with their
knowledge and love OF music. Miss
Patillo received their compliments in
a polite tired way. Then Mrs. Gregg
came up, took the girls hand in both
hers, and said:
My dear, | don't know anything
about music, but when you played l
imagined | was girl again in a field
of wild daisies
AT once the pianist's eyes lighted
with pleasure, and there was real
gratitude in her Thank YOU and the
pressure of her hand"
And I'll venture" said Mrs Chase,
that if you asked her today about
that recital, the only thing she would
remember would be Mrs. Gregg and
her field of daisies.
1T is not that she says startling
things" continued Mrs. Chase She
does not try to be odd or witty, but
she always succeeds in putting things
freshly. Can you imagine her saying,
II was such a success, Miss Watts!'
I've had perfectly delightful time,
Mrs. Coombs? ,"
Il remember" said Mrs Crane, with
q laugh, that one summer Mrs. Gregg
was at our house party in the noun
tains. One evening, after watching
the sunset, she turned suddenly to me.
DO you know what l was thinking,
Mrs. Crane?' she answered.
No, | answered.
"I was thinking she said with a
smile, how glad | am that | lost my

to be there with her aunt; and il

have known you-and so | shouldn't
be here now.
Both women laughed appreciatively.
Il know many women" said Mrs.
Chase, who are more striking to look
at, many with finer clothes, and some
with keener wits, but Mrs Gregg says
the word you want to hear"
And it is something more than
word" replied Mrs. Crane. There's
the genuine feeling behind the word.
She really enjoys things-with her it
is not a matter of showing her Clothes
of paying social obligations, or making
friends. That, | suppose. is why she
can always say the thing that makes
the hostess remember her with such

ASKS ATTENTION
TO CLIFTON STREET
CITY BEAUTIFUL WORK
COMMENDED BY PROF. c. J.
GREENE, WHO SUGGESTS
NEEDED IMPROVEMENT.
Editor Log Cabin Democrat:

Editor Log Cabin Democrat:
Please allow me to express my APP
probation of the City Beautiful As
ISOLATION and the work it has under
taken. The effects on our streets of
the extreme weather of the past
long winter, of the installing of the
waterworks system; and of the alb
sence of the man who, of all our citi-
zens, gave most literally of money,
time, and energy to the welfare of
the city, have accumulated the need
of the work the league has set itself
to do. Beautifying Conway is not
the passing fad or fancy of some
women and a few men who like to
humor them. 1t will increase the
money value Of every foot of land in
and around the city. 1t will help
greatly to make the physical, mental,
and moral life of our citizens-espe-
cially of our chilren-more clean and
wholesome.
the council are cooperating enthusi-
astically with the league. Let me
respectfully call the attention of
these organizations to Clifton street.
This street, so far as | have been able
to learn, has no official "side, edge or
bottom Every property owner
builds his front fence where it seems
good to him. He is not to blame;
there is nowhere else to build it.
The result is, the street fops from
side to side of north and-south line,
and varies in width from AZ or AZ
feet to considerably more than So
Repeated efforts to secure the con-
sent Of property owners to straighten
the street have failed. Concrete side
walk is now being built on the east
side of the street between Prince and
Mill streets. Some of us fondly hop
ed that this walk would be built to a
line, and introduce some order into
the making of the street. Imagine
our chagrin on seeing that the differ
ent sections of this walk that have
been built, valuable and beautiful in
themselves, take their own direction?
Personally l think that the street
ought to be made straight and so feet
wide This width VIII require fewer
changes in sidewalks and fences than
any other if the street is straighten-
ed. 1t will make every piece of prop
erty more valuable. If We can not
have the street so feet wide, let US
have it As or 40. If it can not be
made straight, let us curve it uni
formly If we can not straighten all
of it, let us straighten part of it. By
all means, let the city council lay off
Clifton street according to some sort
of plan, and have surveyor show
every property owner where his fence
and sidewalk ought to be. Make
changes reasonable and wise in view
of the present and the far-future of
Conway. Give everybody plenty of
time to make changes. Injure no.
body; Cypress nobody.
To the Ragged Edge Committee of
the City Beautiful Association, |
would say that there is nothing in
Conway more ragged-edged than Cliff
ton street. To the association itself,
would say, "If thou canst do any
thing, have mercy upon us and help

URGES CLASS TO
LIFE OF SERVICE
REV. WALDRIP'S SERMON
STRONG EXPLOITATION DELIV-
Erred TO GRADUATES OF
HENDRIX COLLEGE.
From Mondays Daily.

From Mondays Daily.
Admonish;ng his hearers that
through service alone is greatness
achieved, Rev. Marion Nelson Wal
drip exhorted the graduating class of
Hendrix College not to scorn the
humber walks of life, but to seek to
lead lives of service to their fellow
man, in the baccalaureate sermon de-
livered by him at the Methodist
church yesterday morning. Service;
the Law of the Kingdom was the
subject of Mr.. Waldrip's discourse,
the minister declaring that work,
once deemed to be a curse of man
kind, was really its greatest blessing.
The ancient theory that heaven is a
place of eternal idleness did great
harm while it persisted" he said. "A
loafer's heaven made a loafer's
earth" The preacher pointed to the
fact that with the passing of slavery
in the south, the old idea that a gen
tleman was man who did not have
to work had also passed, and, driven
by force of necessity to lives of SER
vice, the south is now developing the
nations greatest men. Mr.. Waldrip's
sermon abounded in epigrammatic
truths and eloquent passages, and
was one of the strongest pulpit utter

The commencement sermon was
preceded by an enjoyable program of
sacred music by the Methodist choir,
a baritone solo, mo Night There" by
J. Abner Sage of Hendrix being I'M

Before introducing the preacher,
DR.. A. c.. Millar, the president, paid
brief tribute to the memory of the
late Capt. W. w. Martin, who for
the first time since the college was
established here, was not in attend
ance at the commencement exercises.
DR.. Millar stated that plans were be-
ing formulated by the board of trus-
tees for memorial to Capt. Martin
in the form of group of buildings
costing about 100000, and that def
mite steps toward the erection Of the
first of these buildings will probably
be taken within a short time. The
buildings, he said, will not only be
fitting memorial to the colleges

an immediate need of the college it.
self. With the present facilities, DR..
Millar stated, the board of trustees
had authorized the faculty to limit
the number of students to $50, as this
is all that can be cared for without
additional buildings.
The annual sermon before the
Young Mems Christian Association
of Hendrix College was delivered at
the Methodist church last night by
DR.. H. E. Wheeler of Arkadelphia,
whose subject was can Imperial Con-
scription." DR.. Wheeler's discourse
was both profound and eloquent and
enjoyed by congregation which fill
ed the church to its capacity.

DR.. CALDWELL's GUIDE
TO GOOD HEALTH

The natural tendency of people in
this busy age to demand of the d.
gestive organs more than nature in
tended they should perform, frequent
ly results In throwing the entire d.
gestive system into disorder. When
the stomach fails to freely digest and
distribute that which Is eaten, the
bowels become clogged with a mass
OF waste and refuse which ferments
and generates poisonous gases that
are gradually forced into the blood,
causing distress and often serious Ill
ness.
DR.. W. B. Caldwell says that II the
bowels are kept regular there will be
much less sickness. and prescribes .
combination OF simple laxative herbs
with pepsin that is most effective In
relieving any congestion of matter in
the bowels. This compound can be
bought In any drug store under .the
name of DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsln,
and costs only so cents bottle. 1t Is
mild in It's action. pleasant to the
taste and positive in effect, dose at
night bringing relief next morning,
naturally and without gripping or 9TH
er discomfort. A bottle of DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin in the house will
save many times Its cost in doctor
bills. Your name and address on a
postal to DR.. w. b. Caldwell, 2O3 West
St., Monticello. ILL.,. will bring free
trial bottle by return mail. Adv.
