 The Tribune Booster Edition is full up, the representation to fill sixteen pages. is now complete. It is our pur- pose if night and day labor will do the work, to have it ready for distribution Dee. Is. 1t is going to be proposi- tion that our people will be exceedingly proud of.
 M. B. Russell acknowledges the re- ceipt of a few less than thousand boquets from Tribune readers for his issue of The Tribune two weeks ago. The bald-headed editor who has lost all of his hair in editing what he has been 1 told many times was a real live country paper, cannot understand why a strip bling of would-be-ed would get so many boquets for just one attempt. He says that he suspects if he only had to edit one paper for one week only that it would bring forth a shower of | flowers never before recorded in jour nalism.
 Len Reynolds handed The Tribune office a lemon Tuesday morning that we would like to have kept. It is an Ark ansas product, born and raised on i IleS SIOWu Dy hIIos J dulGO CdIIGNGll near Alpena and is positively the larg- est lemon we have ever seen in the history of the world. We will sign an affidavit that it positively measures Ii inches in circumference any way you can apply the tape. The quality is just as fine as a lemon ever possessed, according to the flavor shown in a com panion that has been butchered. The monstrosity is on exhibition at Key holds grocery and you will confer a favor on us by calling and seeing it, for you have probably doubted our word on the subject, owing to its ap- parent unreasonableness. Of course, such a specimen could not have been produced in any country except North west Arkansas.
 The Tribune is doing all it can to boost Green Gorest and Carroll county. We are making the effort of our lives to call the attention of the outside world to what we have to offer, but there are few things that is not as we would like it and we pen these words in shame when we review the conduct of a number of siXteen-to- twenty-year-old boys on the streets l last Sunday. The scene presented was out of date in the frontier towns of the west years ago and it is nothing more than disgrace and we believe that it is in the interest of both the boys and the public that every one of them should have been severely dealt with. The l law must be exercised if our boys are made to respect it. A boy that grows up up to manhood without proper respect l for the law has but little in store for his future. The citizens of our town should raise up in a body and demand that this drunkenness and rowdyism be severely dealt with and every one who 1 by their conduct disgraced the reputa- ton of the town last Sunday be fined and committed to iail.
 The Grand Piano Contest goes mer- rily on. The contestants are all as busy as bees working like trojans with an even break for landing the coveted prize in the end. The final count will decide just who did the hard work. The girl that does the hardest and most effective work is bound to win and when you take it into consideration that the leading six are working as hard as person could work you can even afford to make a guess who the winner will be- The ballot boxes are in the Bank of Green Forest and the First National where they will remain locked until the evening of December 24 when the committee selected will open the boxes, count the votes and announce the result. This contest is actually creating more interest in this community than anything of like nature that was ever pulled off. Just one word to contestants. Keep busy, 1 When you stop to pause or argue the question you are losing ground. The l ten per cent commission paid by The Tribune will make a neat little sum in the end and pay each one handsomely for the effort put forth.

Owens, who fom erly resided here 1 Mrs. Parks will visit her sister Mrs. Catlett in Springfield, Mo-, and Mrs. Ray Rhodes ct Grenada, Colo, before 1 she returns home.
