Get Wise

Once upon a time there was {
business man in city Of the frst
class who got so busy boosting his
own town and attending strictly tc
his own trade that he forgot to look
across the street to see what his
competitor was doing. This mar
adopted policy of devoting his
entire energy to his own affairs, to
spending all his spare moments de.
vlslng scenes whereby he might
increase his own legitimate profits
and keep all the customers who
came to his store satisfied, This
left him no time for petty iealously
and at times he forgot he had q
rival.
When anybody came along with
a project-a Legitimate project-to
boom his town, he was always ready
to help. If the project meant
bringing people to his town, he was
more than glad to contribute to the
necessary expenses. 1t mattered
nothing to him that others might
embark in his line of business and
that competition might grow keenel
with each new business house that
was opened.
He wanted to see his old town
grow and prosper. He wanted il
to double every year, if possible,
ana he would even call upon his
rivals to help. He was confident
that his own methods in business
were clean-that he was selling
goods and at fair profit and that
he was satisfied.
This man never stopped to ask
how much the other fellow acros;
the street was gong to give toward
an enterprise. He gave as much a.
he could possibly spare himself.
And now that business man has q
well established trai is accounted
one of the leading citizens of tbt
city in wli,h he lives. He is pros
porous and satisfied. .-Ex.

ANOTHER ELECTION
is COMING SOON

Arkansas has already had many
elections this year, and still there
are more to follow. There have
been primary elections for every
office on the calendar, of every gov
ernmental division-national, state
district, county and municipal.
The municipal elections have already
been held, and we have yet before
US the general biennial election this
fall and we are well in the midst of
the national campaign.
There is, however, another cleo
tion which must not be overlooked
and which, in many respects, is of
greater Importance to the individu.
al elector than any of the other cleo
tions. This Is the annual school
election, Saturday, May ls.
As the public school is the very
basis, the foundation stone, of good
government, so are the duties of
those who vote at the school cleo.
tion of gravest Importance. The
divisions are so small, each neigh.
borhood, almost being a separate
unit, that each Is an important fac
tor.
1t is important that good citizens,
who are intelligently interested IN
better public school conditions and
who will devote their time and
energy to the cause, be elected direc-
tors. 1t is also important that a
sufficient school tax be voted and
in most instances this means the
full seven mills, permitted by con-
stitution. So don't forget to vote
at the school election Saturday, May
Is.

OAKLAND FARM NOTES

GOOD ROADS AND FARM PRODUCTS
There is one side to the good
roads question which has been
brought to my mind this winter by
The conditions existing, and one
which few farmers think Of, and
that is the market side. Why does
the price of farm butter and eggs
climb skyward in the towns every
spring? Because of the short sup.
ply. These things pile up at the
homes of farmers because they can
not get to town.
Good roads would make an even
market all the year around and
would add largely to farm profits.
Town people should also give the
above thought and help boost for
good roads. And it would help
You to get fresh eggs, better butter
and other farm products every week
at the time you have to do without.
We feel for you but can't reach
you. We have the goods but can't
deliver them. Help us get good
roads and we will come to you and
make the inner man happy.
Keep boosting eternal vigilance
will bring victory.
THE SECRET OF HAPPINESS
If country boys and laborers
would stop to consider that daily
wage Of SO would barely pay the
\ family living expenses in New York
SCity they would not be so anxious
TO leave the farm.
After an elaborate investigation
1t is found that it costs 5000 a year
to maintain a family in the Metroo-
oils. This provides only for food,
fuel, rent and the fewest possible
clothes. On the other hand half
the males Of this country earn less
than 5000 yearly and 5000 looks
big to the man working for S25
per month and board 1t is not
what one earns but what one saves
that tells the difference between
happiness and misery
The farmer or farm laborer who
gets his house and large part Of
his food supplies from the garden
and farm does not appreciate the
great rapidity with which living ex.
penses mount up where everything
has>to be purchased in small quanti-
ties. Farm wages and profits seem
small when compared with the
earnings of city men but there are
thousands of men earning SO to S.
a day, that haven't cent left when
pay day comes around, who would
gladly get back in the country if
they could. Some of the happlest
people we know are those who live
on small farms with gross earnings
of only few hundred dollars.
Their living expenses are very little
and yet they live well. They have
learned the great secret of econo my
and contentment without which no
one can succeed. They are still
ambitious but have long since
realized that no one can conquer the
whole world.
COMPOUND MIXTURE
Sprinkle your farm with a com
pound mixture as follows: Com
mon sense, one part, essence OF
business, one part, hustle, two parts.
The result-better crops.
It may be true that poor excuse
is better than none but there is no
exouse for the man who let's his
land wash away just because it
rains, for with some work done
at the right time this can be pre-
vented,

cTPENHAGBN, May The peo-
pie Of Denmark were stunned today
BY the announcement Of the sudden
death Of King Frederick. who while

Instantly.
The body was rushed to the near

apopIexy.
King Frederick was travelling in

where he had undergone a course OF
treatment for arteriosclerosis and
Inflammation Of the lungs. He ate
a hearty dinner and strolled toward
Goose Market. one Of the principal
squares in the business heart of tue
city. A few minutes later some
persons noticed an elderly gentleman
fall, When they reached him he
was dead.
Copenhagen is rapidly assuming
