than at any other place in the COM
munity 1t is a splendid meeting
place too for womens social and
study clubs and for entertainments
of all kinds, including lectures on
practical and scientific subjects Of
general interest to the farmer and
to the farmers boy and GIRL
By these means the farmer will
see and know that the school as the
center of the social life Of the COM
munity may stand for a better,
richer and happier life for the farm
er and his family. His children
come to feel and realize that life on
the farm Is just as attractive as
life in the town or city,
II Is a recognized fact much Of
our teaching in the rural schools for
q generation or more has been, not
for living on the farm, but for liv-
ing away from the farm. Much of
the best life of the rural communi-
ties has been drifting to the towns
and cities. There should be d re-
cali" from the city to the farm and
this recall" will come when the
school becomes in reality the social
center for the farmer. To expect
this, to hope this for our farmers IS
not "idealizins." 1t Is the practical,
common sense way of meeting con-
ditions as they exist and when our
farmers desire these things and de-
sire them to such an extent that
the school assumes the rightful po-
sition and place In the community,
then and then only will the thing
be done. The whole community
will be touched at every point.
Farm life will be richer and better
and the school will indeed be the
social center for the community.

CLAY SLOAN'S LETTER
prepared by Prof, J. L. Bond')

In these the opening days OF the
New Year before the busy crop
making season begins, it would be
well for our farmers to think seri-
ously and soberly along the line OF
social betterment for the communi-
ty. 1t is immensely important for
the farmer and for the farmers
family that the social and cooper
ative life of the community be the
best that it Is possible to have
Our farmers are beginning to re-
alize that the most fundamental
force in any community looking to
better social conditions on the farm
Is the school. When the school
conditions in the community are
good the social life of the people is
deeper and richer and better lhere
should crystalize about the school
the best thought, the best life in the
community.
That these conditions may obtain
and in order that there may be that
cooperative spirit and purpose
without which better school condi-
tions cannot be secured In all mat
ters pertaining to the common In
terests of the farmer and the farm
er's family there should be frequent
meetings at the school house, where
the different agencies Of co-opera'
ton for rural bettermcnt may be
discussed and brought to the atten-
ton of the people of the eommuni-
ty
. The domestic spirit of this day
and time Is that of co-operation-a
unity of purpose and action in mat
ters pertaining to the community
welfare,
Farmers Unions or farm club
meetings together with farm dem
onstration meetings and exhibits OF

A FEW THOUGHTS AS WE PASS

from the Memphis Commercial
Appeal on Sudden Death" which
no doubt will be remembered by
all our readers. The truthfulness
of that article was illustrated again
a few days ago by very sad oc-
currence in a neighboring county,
the victim of the sudden call of
death being one of North Arkansas
most widely known citizens. Last
Saturday while addressing a jury in
the circuit court at Pocahontas
Attorney Joseph L. Short of Salem
suddenly collapsed and expired i'm
mediately. MIR. Short was appar-
emily in his usual good health, and
his sudden end was a great shock
to his friends and terrible blow to
his family.
Mr. Short was very successful at
torney and business man, and had
accumulated quite a lot of proper
ty. He had received numerous po-
litical honors, once serving as pres
ident of the Arkansas state senate.
He was a great friend to the town
of Salem. That town will miss him
sadly. Mr.. Short had hundreds of
friends in Sharp county who will
long remember him as a good and
useful citizen.

The Batesville Guard would like
to know who Governor Donaehey is
talking about when he refers to the
gang" which he does quite often.
1t would be interesting to know
that. Slick politicians have used
that old cry of the gang SO long
that it is beginning to grow stale
and smell something like a wet
dog. When a candidate has no real
issue upon which he Gan hone; Gov
election he begins to bawl that
the gang" is after him. When the
candidate wants to throw dust in
the eyes of the people; when he
wants to bocloud the issue and get
the attention Of those who vote
away from his own record he puts
on an air of innocence, rolls back
his eyes like a sick calf and begins
to sputter about the gang" being
after him. The gang" Is very
vague and indefinite term. The
man who talks about the dang"
ought to tell who Is the gang" He
ought to give names and dates,
chapter and verse, If he doesn't do
it he ought to stand convicted of
employing the tactics Of the ordi-
nary demagogue and lowest type of
political trickster and shyster.
:. :: F."
Governor Donaghey Is now loud
in his denunciation of the whiskey
interests. Yet Governor Donaghey
has been in Office more than three
years and no man can place a hand
upon a blow he has aimed at the
whiskey interests. He says the
liquor interests control politics,
which makes one of two things GER
tain; Either the whiskey interests
elected him governor or the Whis-
key interests came into power UNI
der his administration, If the
whiskey interests elected him Gov
ernor his eleventh hour conversion
was not preceded by repentance
one may be sure, If the whiskey
interests came into power under
his administration then his admin
istration Is q failure and he Is in
competent.

The Fish Week Dietary
Need Not Be MOnoton0uS

ITO a warm platter. Garnish with fried
tomatoes and serve with cream sauce
When fish comes frequently TO the table II
ought to be reinforced with heterogeneous
foods, such as milk and eggs. Such re-
inforced dish is fish custard, for which any
cold cooked FISH can be used. Free It from
skin and bone and cut into moderately
small pieces Season with salt. black ana
red pepper and a little nutmeg, If desired.
Lay without packing in buttered soufne
case and cover with custard thus proper
toned: Beat two whole eggs and one extra
yolk very light add a pint OF sweet MIX
and a pinch of salt. Beat all we'll together
Bake In a moderate oven until the custard
,s set and serve very hot with garnish or
parsley.
Fish timbale requires two cupfuls Of cold
fish, chopped fine or ground one cupful OF
cream sauce, tablespoonful of butter. two
fresh eggs, little minced parsley and salt
and pepper-both kinds-to taste. Mix the
fish we'll with the sauce. beat In the but
ter then add the eggs, beaten very light
and mix all thoroughly. Cook about hali
an hour in a moderate oven. and garnisn
with parsley, slices Of hard boiled eggs and
lemon.
Any kind Of cold fish makes a good salad
II dressed with nayonnaise. For a jellied
fish salad soak one-quarter Of box Of gel
atine in one-fourth of cupful Of water and
dissolve in one cupfu Of hot stock. Season
with salt, pepper and lemon Juice and mix
with an equal measure OF fish. Decorate
one large or several small moulds with pars-
ley, capers slices of hard-boiled eggs. or
any garnish preferred; put in the fish mix
ture. and when it hardens turn 1t out on
shredded lettuce Serve with mayonnaise.
An excellent recipe for fish chowder calls
for six medium sized potatoes, four pounds
of fish, one pint Of milk. six water crackers.
one quart of water two onions, half
pound OF pork. one tablespoonful Of thyme
or one teaspoonful OF dried summer savory
and salt and pepper to taste. Cut the FISH
and potatoes into small pieces, mince the
onion and pork and fry light brown. Put
!, a layer Of potatoes in a saucepan. then a
layer of fish, then a layer of the onion and
pork, then a sprinkle of the herbs and a
seasoning Of the pepper and salt. Continue
these layers until all are in, having the
top layer potatoes Now pour over the
water; cover tightly and simmer twenty
minutes without stirring. In the mean time
have the milk ready TO boil break in the
crackers, let it stand moment and add
It to the chowder. Let 1t boil UP once; taste
to see II seasoned rightly. Then stir It
little and serve hot.
Devotees OF paper bag cookery cay that
this is the ideal method for cooking fish,
not only improving the favor of the fish,
but preventing its odor from penetrating
the house It also eliminates the washing
Of the dishes in which the Ash was cooked.
Soyer. the inventor OF paper bag cookery
gives the following timetable for fish: Fifty
minutes for seven pounds. 90 minutes for
three pounds, IS minutes for one pound. six
minutes for half a pound.
