PACKING HONEY IN CARTONS
inexpensive Covering Serves to Pro-
tect Comb From Dust and Pre-
vents Marrinq in Handling.

The best grades OF comb honey
should be put on the market in neat
ly printed cartons. They are a great
convenience for the dealer, they serve
to keep honey free from dust, and
also prevent marring the delicate
comb when handling from the grocery
to the consumers kitchen.
Cartons are SO inexpensive, and so
useful, that it is surprising that more
Of the best comb honey is not put on
the market in them.
Of course, those using cartons should
be very careful to see that only the
most perfect sections of honey are
put into them. A honey-purchaser
will seldom buy cartoned honey the
second time if she has been once de-
ceived-by getting, for instance, a
partly filled comb in carton; or, per-
haps, dirty-looking comb.
Cartons should be used more extern
sively than they are now, as they also
furnish an added opportunity to send
printed honey-information with each
comb of honey sold.

WILSON, MARSHALL
CLUBH0LD MEETING
AT COUNTY COURTHOUSE
NEW DEMOCRATIC CLUB NOW
HAS A TOTAL OF 175
MEMBERS.

From Tuesdays Daily
An interesting and enthusiastic
meeting of the Wilson and Marshall
Democratic club of Cadron township
was held at the courthouse in this city
last night. Interesting talks were
made by the president of the club, S.
w. Rogers; Senator A. C. Martin, l..
NJ. Campbell, Jim Dunn, George
Shaw, 10 Frauenthal, Judge w. H.
Duncan, j. w. Akin and others.
During each talk the members, with
emphasis, regretted very much that
there were not more young men in at
tendance, for in attending these meet
ings the young men would become
more interested in the issues of the
day, and therefore, would be more
useful citizens, not only in the pres
ent time, but in the future.
Judge Duncan emphasized the fact
that today we have too many people
who sit down and take no interest in
politics, and after elections are over
are always ready to criticise the out
come, when, if they had done their
duty, it would have been different.
On motion of Senator Martin the
chair was authorized to appoint a
program committee, and w. H. Dun
can, Senator Martin and George
Shaw were placed on said committee.
They will prepare a program for next
meeting, August 10, at 8 o'clock. At
that time it is hoped to have secured
some out-of-town speakers for the &C.
casion, due notice of which will be
given later.
Senator Martin introduced a resolu-
ton endorsing our present congress
man, Hon. H. M. Jacoway, which was
unanimously adopted and is as fol-
lows:
"Whereas, our present congress-
man, Hon. H. M. Jacoway, Jr., has, by
his strict attendance to his official du
ties, been signally successful in secur-
ing for the people of his district all
things for which they have asked,
and,
Whereas, his vote and voice has
always been on the side of the people;
therefore, be it
Resolved, That we endorse his
record as our congressman and pledge
him our unqualified support for re-
election in November"
j. A. King, chairman of the men,
bership committee, together with 9TH
er members of the committee, handed
in the names of 1919 new members,
bringing the total membership of the
club to IT'S members.

ON PROHIBITION
CONTINUED from First Page.)

is, he says. but one district of one
county in this judicial district where
the sale of whiskey is legalized, and
there has been a vast increase Of
crime in that district since it was le-
galized He declared that since he had
been in Office the only four men who
have been condemned to death had
committed their crimes through the in
fiuence of whiskey. He declared that
whiskey has been shown to be, in his
experience, the fruitful source of hom-
icides and of all crimes. He declared
that the expense Of prosecuting crime
engendered by the use of whiskey far
outweighs the revenue derived from
the sale of it.
The last speech of the evening was
made by Rev. Jas. A. Anderson, ed
;tor of the Western Methodist. He
supported General Atkinson's position
that the state is the unit of govern
ment and not the county. He advocat-
ed the creation of an enforcement
commission with power to compel the
local officers to enforce the law. He
cited the case of Oklahoma. Any 10
freeholders may make complaint to
the governor against any officer Tor
non-enforcement of the law, and II
the governor finds just grounds for
the complaint it is his duty to sus-
pend such officer. The officer so com
planned against has the right to make
application to the chief justice within
20 days for an investigation, whose
duty it shall be to appoint one OF the
district judges to sit on the case. DR..
Anderson says this law is giving en-
inent satisfaction in Oklahoma, and
is resulting in the absolute enforce
ment of the prohibition laws in that
state.

cast off the letters of our present con-
stitution. Will you help as? Arkan-
sas should take her place where she
belongs-among the leading states of
the union; and this she can never dc
as long as our cities and larger towns
are so hampered that they can make
no permanent Improvements.
ut may be said that this can be
done through improvement districts
The method of organizing these i'm
posed by the constitution is so cum
bersome that there will never be
enough of them to do the required
work. Moreover, under that system
all the cost is thrown on the owners
lof real property. This is most un-
just-so unjust that they frequently
refuse to assume the burden.
Arkansas is making more rapid
progress educationally than any other
state in the union. This would not
be the case if our school districts in
cities and towns could not use their
credit in building schoolhouses and
equipping them. The bond amend
ment will mean for our cities fully as
much as this same right is meaning
for our school districts
Everywhere our lands are beng

Iceeds of bonds" says the executive
committee, in concluding its appeal
by the issuance of these bonds we
are raising the value of many of our
lands from 10 to 20 fold. We can do
the same for our cities, if We will.
Standing room only was available
at the Arkway last night. The spe-
cial program of THE Post Telegraph

received by the audience and consid-
cred the best seen here in long time.
The program for tonight promises to
be good one. Plenty electric fans to
