 Her deck blanks bore the marks of footsteps, but there was nothing to ex' plain the disappearance of her master and crew. In her cabin some odds and ends rolled and clinked in the corners with the rolling of the ship; the lock fast places were undisturbed; her charts and papers were quite secure. In her water breaker there was full supply of fresh water; salt meat and biscuits were in her stores. A main sail and two jibs were snugly furled and her lifeboats swung properly in the davits.

NEW DADS START
 BALL TO ROLLING
Pass Sidewalk Ordinance and Con- sider Ordinance to Increase
 Street Duty to Days

The new city council held its first regular meeting Monday night and set on foot the Bull Moose program. At caucus of the members held some time age they pledged themselves to a Do Something" policy, and it seems from the start made Monday night they intend to carry out this pro. gram.
 An ordinance fixing the time ot collecting the special sidewalk tax was passed. This disposeS of all the preliminaries in this matter and the commissioners will now proceed to place the bond issue which has already been arranged for, and actual work on the side walk will begin in a few weeks.
 An ordinance was introduced and passed the second reading to make all the male citizens between the ages of IS and 45 subject to street duty seven days in each year. This is an increase of three days, and the deplorable condition of the streets of Newark is ample evidence that the work is needed.
 An ordinance was introduced and passed to the second reading to empower the sanitary com mittee to employ city scavenger, in order to better provide for more healthful and sanitary con. ditions in the town.
 An ordinance was introduced to pay the aldermen $1 for each council meeting attended and in order to enforce better attendance the ordinance provides for a fine of $2 for non-attendance at any meeting.
 The mayor was instructed to enforce collection of the dog tax with the provisio that no marshall S fee be collected if payment be made on or before the first day of June.
 The treasurer's report showed a total of S1999.25 expended during the past year by the last admins tration. This leaves the towns finances lower than they have been in a number of years, the amount of cash now on hand being only $9145.
 A resolution was adopted re- questing the railroad company to drain the pond on its right-of-way in the eastern edge of town.

SCHOOL ELECTION
 SATURDAY MAY l7
States Greatest Asset is it's Schools, and This Election is
 Therefore Important

There is no more important date on our calendar than the third Saturday in May-the date of our Annual School Election.
 We expended for our public sch ools nearly four million dollars during the school year which clos ed June 30, 1912, and for the year just closing the expenditures will probably, exceed that amount. The funds raised and expended for educational purposes in Arkansas including our institu- tions of higher learning, approxi- mate one half the total tax reve- nue of the State.
 Arkansas has a permanent in-4 vestment of more than $10,000,- 900 in public school property and more than $2.000,000 invested in its University, State Normal, Agri- cultural Schools, etc.
 It is therefore apparent from a financial standpoint alone that every citizen should be interested in casting his vote in selecting those who shall bestadminister that portion of this great fund avail able in his district.
 Yet, much more important is this question than the mere matter of the money involved, when we consider that our pub lie schools are our means of train ing the rising generation for citi- zenship.
 It is of personal importance to nearly every citizen that persons capable and worthy, are elected to the School Board in his district, for the directors have very broad discretionary powers, as well as full authority to handle the affairs of the district.
 The most important question before our citizens is the vote to elect the office of County Super intendent of Schools.
 It is very significant that no other enterprise of any consider able magnitude is operated with out we'll defined supervision, and that no satisfactory school system has been built up in any state without first providing for its sup ervision and making definite County Unit with an active County Superintendent at its head.
 County Supervision IS for the benefit of the rural schools, and its worth in Arkansas has been prov ed in fifteen counties.

LAYS FREAK EGGS

Col. and Mrs. John Qualls own a young Rhode Island Red hen that lays an egg about three inches long every day. The eggs are usually about an inch in diameter and three inches long, and she has been laying eggs like this for some. A sister of this hen, two years ago, laid an egg with a curled tail on it nearly two inches long.

SURPRISED AT THE
 GROWTH OF NEWARK

Editor Newark Journal.-Some time ago a copy of your paper made its way to my office. l was certainly glad to receive it, as l did not know you had so good a paper. After reading it my mind ran back to the days when Newark was in its infancy. Perhaps there are a few in your town yet that will remember me.
 worked in the first cotton gin built in Newark. Ginners then did not have the modern equipment for handling cotton they now have. The gin 1 refer to was owned by J. B. Medley. It was built on high posts and had number of stalls.
 When we received enough cot ton to have a days ginning, then we would take our baskets and carry the cotton from the stall up a short stairway, to a hopper erect ed over the gin stand.
 We would go into the lint room and bulk the lint cotton and carry 1t to the press and tramp it as full as full as we could, then we would hitch a horse or mule to lever below and complete the pressing of the bale.
 1 worked for MT. Medley by the month, and when we were not ginning, worked on his house. 1 remember the sweet gum wealth CT boarding and how hard it was to dress, and how it would warp.
 If l remember correctly, there was man by the name of Mur- phy postmaster at Newark and a young man by the name of Beane was depot agent. MT. George Magness was in the dry goods business. MT. Ben Sisk had a pool and billiard hall; he also had in connection can goods and pickled pigs feet, It was my luck to get the management of this concern on on commission. 1 boarded with A. B. Duff. He was hotel man at that time.
 l will always have a warm place in my heart for old Arkansas, for as it is sometimes said here in Tex as, 1 was water bound over there about 28 years of my life.
 1 have my relatives and friends in that state. It was my privilege to be in your town just a few min utes, last May year ago. It was surprising to me to see so many changes since l left there, and to see what a different appearance the town had.
 If this does not find its way to the waste basket, I may write again some time.
