Not to Grant Hearings.

Chairman Clark stated to the committee
that the commission interpreted the parce
post law as not requiring it to grant full
hearings on proposed rate changes as II
did in freight rate inquiries. 1t was the
commissions duty, he said, to see that
the Post Office Department did not re-
duce rates below the cost of carrying the
business.

intended you should merely investigate

Judge WA. Butt

The Tribune editor would feel that this Grand Booster Edition of The Tribune, in which we have undertaken 10 make mention of as many as pos sible of the men who have played an important part in the up-building of Green Forest, would fall short of it's purpose very far indeed did we not pen some words of appreciation of the long services of Judge w. A. Butt who has been the public pack-horse of the community for more than twenty years.
 Mr. Butt moved to Arkansas from Illinois in the early eighties, becoming a citizen of the then hamlet of Green Forest after he had proven up on a homestead on the mountain south of town, where he had nestled with his family five years before in log cabin to start life anew after spending what was then thought to have been about all his life in the railroad service, he being then both broken in health and pocket book.
 Early upon acquiring residence in Green Forest Ar. Butt distinguished himself as a doer of thank-you jobs and consequently he has been one of

It is a source of special delight to The Tribune to make mention in this Grand Booster Edition of a young man that We can without the least violence to our conscience predict is destined 10 become one of the leading business men of Carroll county. for his business career covering a space of some seven or eight years and his demeanor has been absolutely above reproach.
 Beginning as office boy in the bank where his services are now indispen- sable as assistant cashier and ac- countant, he has steadily climbed up until today he is thoroughly fitted to be the head of the institution
 Being the son of widowed mother, he has since he has been big enough to earn a wage, the principal support of the family, and that he has per formed that duty well is strongly at tested by the fact that no home is better provided for in the community

C. D. Wall

One of Green Forests prominent financial men and well respected citi- zens is C. D. Wall, who has for some years been at the head of the manage ment of the affairs of the Bank of Green Forest
 Mir. Wall is native Arkansan, hail ing from Madison county, having moved from Marble to Green Forest some ten years ago. First he entered the mercantile field, but early severed this connection in order to become a banker, and he has been factor in our financial affairs for several years, his connection with the Bank of Green Forest dating back to 1907
 It is our pleasure to record the fact that Mir. Wall is of a broad business build, taking the stand toward all mat ters of public needs, which most be- comes a man of his financial standing
 There is little more that can be said of man whose prestige is such as to distinguish with the position of conf dence and trust he has occupied for so long. Such incidents speak louder than would volumes of fulsome praise.
 It might be remarked in this con

al business training long before he has reached mature manhood. His steady business habits and genial dis position has been a subject of com ment by his friends and associates for years.
 Not only has he made good with his employers in the most eXacting way and been a bread winner who has won, but he has the elements of q young man that cannot fail to develop into useful citizenship. You will find him on all occasions ready. yes, even anxious to help along every worthy enterprise that is destined to boost the town or country, and with pock- et-book open to charity at all times.
 We predict the years will not be many before s. x. Edgmon has as cended much higher on the rounds of success.
The Green Forest tribune., 1913-12-19

One of Green Forests most modest business men and yet one of the fel- lows who can be depended upon when there is a call for help to do some thing for he town is Elijah Wise the pioneer blacksmith.
 As the saying goes, what Mir. Wise has in the way of the comforts and necessaries of life-and he has a gen erous supply of them-didn't cost him anything-he has worked them out. All he has done is to pound iron and steel for a living.
 AIr. Wise set up a shop in one corner of the crossroads back when the town was principally noted as the point where the Springfield road crossed the one leading from Berry vile to Harrison, and he has been there eyer since, pounding away.
 There are few better skilled or bet ter equipped workmen in the country engaged in his line of business, but

bank and to predict his success in the new position would be an idle waste of space. Since the place is to be vacated by C. D. Wall, who re- tires to become County Treasurer-he hopes-the stockholders of the bank are exceptionally fortunate in finding so good man as Harye Nillines to step into the position as cashier.
 In this connection we might add that Mr. Nillines will be no stranger to the important work he is about to enter upon, for he has had previous experience, having for some years served as assistant cashier of the Bank of Jasper, previous to his re moval to Green Forest in 1910.
 It is something more than a pleas ure to the editor of the Tribune to thus speak kindly of Mir. Villines in this Grand Booster Edition, for we not only gratify personal feeling thereby, but we have the conscience ness of knowing that every word we have said of him will receive the stamp of approval by those who have had occasion to deal with him or the pleasure of his acQuaintanceShip.

 As manager of the Green Forest Hardware Co.,, which was composed of himself and his late lamented father Joseph Villines, Harve has made that firms business thrive as but few businesses in the country have pros pered, and it was a surprise and dis appointment to everybody in Green Forest, when it was announced that the firm had made arrangements to retire from business.
 In assuming his new duties as cash fer of the Bank of Green Forest, Mir. Villines will take with him the firm confidence of every patron of the

most anybody can beat him at charg- ing. His liberality and fair dealing with his patrons all these years is re sponsible for the fact that he is not now retired with his name at the head of some banking institution.
 But Elijah Wise is no pauper. He has one of the commodious homes of the town, surrounded by beautiful shade trees and flowers, with a back ground of an acre of two of Elberta peach trees that look like a Cali fornia orange orchard in ripening season. He flies high" in his auto Sunday afternoons, and he sleeps soundly from his labors, with the com forting knowledge that he owes no man penny.
 As an attractive trade-center Green Forest owes more than perhaps any one has thought about to the easy-go- ing, friendly and substantial pioneer blacksmith.

Dr. E. E. Poynor

A late acquisition to the citizen ship of Green Forest is Dr. E. E. Poy- nor, who is a freak. in that he takes first rank as a Booster, having been born and reared in the sticks" of Arkansas.
 From a standpoint of a medical education. however, pr. Poynor was to the manor born, being a son of doctor, having graduated and post graduated in both medicine and sur gery; and but for the fact that this country is to be elassed by the doc tors as distressingly healthy, we might have had stronger inducements for the doctor, when he decided to change his location from Osage to Green Forest few months ago in order to take advantage of our school facilities
 But that is not what We started in to say You know doctors are so "dad-gasted" ethical that you have to handle them with gloves in order to keep from advertising their busi- ness.
 What we want to say about Dr. Poy- nor is that his heart is just exactly right and his liberality is everything that the most eNacting could expect in matters of pushing the town and country to the front
 It is the addition of such citizens as Dr. Poynor during the past year or two that has put progressiveness so. far in the ascendency in Green Forest that nearly everybody is getting the spirit. Dr. PoynOr is responsible for a little more than one Boosters share of it.

He has been Squire for eighteen years, in recognition of the efficiency of which service The Fri bune suspended the rules and dubbed him Judge" at the end of his fifth term on the "bench' and we wish to say that no chancellor ever wore the title more becomingly.
 He has been mayor of the town over and over, school director, time after time, city treasurer, secretary of the Masonic lodge, master of the lodge, tyler, steward of the church and the Lord only knows what manner of pub lie burdens has not fallen on his broad shoulders since he cast his lot in this town.
 But under all of the loads with an unbroken record for faithfulness to his trusts, Judge Butt has managed to keep the wolf a comfortable distance and has positively retired with com potency sufficient to keep him through his remaining years.
 Nor has Judge Butts liberality in public affairs been limited to the time he has devoted to public service. He has been exceedingly liberal with his means, often going to the long black book he carries on the inside of his coat pocket to answer a call for sup port of charity, the church or to help out with some public improvement fund.
 Taking that broad view of life that it's wealth is measured by good deeds, and the things that one has done to promote the comfort and happiness of others. our good friend Judge Butt is a millionaire in the best sense of the term.
