HALBROOK PUPILS
 COMING 10 FAIR
SCHOOL WILL SEND 25O
INTEREST IN BIG EVENT HERE IN OCTOBER AT HIGHEST
 PITCH EVER KNOWN.

Coming 250 strong, with three floats and a big brass band. the pupils of the Halbrook system of schools, will be here in body to attend the educational day program at the Faulkner county fair, Tuesday, Octo- Der 8, according to Supt W. E. Hal brook, who is in Conway today mak- ing arrangements for the arrival of the big delegation. The schools under Prof. Halbrook's supervision are To- cated at Martinville, Damascus and Choctaw, and these schools are pre- pairing to put forth a strong effort to in the prizes offered in the educa- tional department.
 With 800 or 600 people coming from that immediate section, Prof Halbrook realized that it would be impossible for the crowd to obtain ae- commodations in houses and has ar ranged for large camping ground where the visitors will make their home during their stay here. Prof Halbrook says he never before saw such interest manifested in a fair Tn the northwestern part of the county, and 1t looks as if everyone ir tildI ScCtlOil WOufG D6 IleGe.
 His statement is in accord with those of M. c. Canada and B. A. Ar thur, both of whom have just return ed from extensive advertising trips or behalf of the fair. They declare the interest is not confined to any one sec tion of country or class of people, but is universal and if anything can be judged from present indications, the crowd in Conway from October 8 tC II, inclusive, will be tremendous.
 So many professional race horses have already been entered for the fair, that Manager King will have tc stalls constructed Seven were enter ed by one man today, in addition tc about 25 already entered, and letters of inquiry are being received from other horsemen in every mail It is declared that the races this year vii be by far the best ever given here There will be no exhibition" races ir which the purses are equally divided but the rules of the American Trot- ting Association will be followed strictly, and every race will be a req contest for the prize money
 Manager King reports splendic advance sale of season tickets. The tickets, which are on sale at the loca banks and drug stores, are good fol both day and night events, the price for the four days and night being only $150. The season tickets vii remain on sale for only a limited time

ELEPHANT FINDS
 PIG AFFINITY

Animals widely diversified by na- ture often form queer attachments and find singular atfinities when . thrown together in one aggregation Nowhere else in the world is this more vividly demonstrated than in the case of the elephant and barn. menagerie with Gentry Brothers greater shows, which will exhibit in this city Saturday, September 2S.
 When the elephants were first in- troduced in Gentry Brothers winter quarters the other animals held aloof from them. But after few months of contact the creatures in that great performing family came to know each other.
 Casey" the trained pig, became an inseparable companion of king, the elephant One day trainer no- ticed Casey" walk deliberately up to the elephant The largest of all crea- lures was lying down.
 After couple of grunts, which the elephant returned, the pig got busy. With his rough nose he began scratching the elephants back. The pachyderm was in his seventh heaven. "A Now whenever "Casey" is unleash Nd he spends most of his time in the elephant ring When the elephants go for water he goes with them. When they are fed their bran and oats ''Casey" eats with them. In fact. "Casey" and King" are the sAanchest friends around the zoo. B&h will be here when Gentry Brothers shows exhibit in this city Saturday, September 28.

5 deplOrable that an agency which
IS SO necessary for our comfort and
happiness should also involve so
much misery and destruction.
A realization or the enormous de-
struction by fire of created wealth
SHOULD cause every thoughtful Amer
can citizen to hang his head in
shame. 1t is blot upon our civili-
zation. 1t means one of two things,
either that the proportion of dishon-
est individuals is very large, or that,
as a nation, we are OutrageOusly
careless; possibly both of these as
sumptions might be held to be true.
1t is sad commentary on our ma
tional life that the destruction of
property by fire each year is about
to one-half the cost of all the new
buildings erected in the country. Ac-
companying this waste, and due to
the same cause is the loss of the
lives of more than fifteen people each
year. Our average destruction each
week is three churches, three halls,

apartment houses, three department
stores, two jails, twenty-six hotels,
one hundred and forty fiat houses,
and nearly sixteen hundred homes.
In the year 1911 the value of prop
erty destroyed by fire was in excess
of 1924, 100000. The record of the
year 1910 was approximately the
same For thirty-five years up to
and including 1911, the value of
property destroyed by fire in this
country and Canada was far in excess
of 5,oOO,OOO,0OO. The destruction
of property in two years is about
equal to the entire cost of the con-
struction of the Panama Canal. With
such an enormous drain upon our re-
sources is it not wonder that we
are not in a constant state Of panic?

by means of fire insurance, the bur-

nevertheless, the loss to the nation,
