IF a pet you must have, get pig.
The pig may not be so delicate and
sentimental an animal as the cat and
the dog, and he has disagreeable
squeal, but he is not disease carrier"
So said DR.. D. T. Quigley Of North
Platte, Neb.. at the Devereaux Meth
odist Episcopal church in lecture on
the prevention Of infectious and con-
tagious diseases.
1t was especially in reference to the
common cold" that DR.. Quigley men-
toned pets. He declared that the
common cold" was the worst ailment
of the human race and that not q
small part Of the affection was attrib-
atable to the family cat and dog. which
boys, girls and grown-ups fondle.

The total enrolment of the Fut- tig public school for the term just closed was lo5, of which 95 were boys and l02 girls. The number of days taught was l52. Total days present by all pupils. 2O,023. Percentage of attendance for all pupils actually enrolled at any one time. about 90 per cent. Number of days attended by each pupil en- rolled, 1O3. but this small number of days attended is due to a large number Of pupiis leaving town be- fore the close of the session and many others entered school after the beginning of the second term. The average monthly enrolment was only about l5O pupils. Nine grades were taught and. taken all together. we believe this term was one of the most successful ever taught in Huttig.

reason for this is the large number of foreign residents located in Chi caeo. foreigners who are not ia miliar with American methods and Amercan names.
 The widespread cafeisseness in addressing mail is a gioNue evil. It is affecting the postal system Of the entire country. Instructions have been sent out by Postmaster General Burleson to all postma sters to do everything possible to oyer ceme the trouble and 10 obtain th co operation Of the public in Gu reeting thie unfortunate habit.

WAS A BRILLIANT REPORTER
St. Mark Declared Shining Example for Newspaper Writer of
 Today.

The greatest journalist the world ever knew lived 1,500 or more years before the invention of type, according to Rev. Dr. Frank N Palmer, says the Philadelphia Bulletin.
 St. Matthew put his chronicles in 2S chapters; St. Luke used 24 to tell ! his ~story: St John used 21. but St Mark covered all the details more vividly in Is, and. true to the spirit of action that animates his kind put a miracle in every chapter.
 St. Mark, Dr Palmer said was the reporter among the apostles. His viewpoint, his language and his mar velous ability to give action and eli max, dash and color in a sentence should be glowing example to the newspaper writers of this day.
 Each of the other apostles speaks of skies that opened. Mark says they were rent asunder He is the only one among his brethren who stopped dutifully to describe the color of a given scene. In the writings of his fellows it is told that the people went to the sermon on the mount Mark writes vividly that the people ran.
 In writing for the Romans he used colorful allusions and the references to wild beasts to touch their intelli- gence in sympathetic fashion at every stroke.

Preparing for Crop Movement.

With reports indicating record breaking crops for the year through out the territory served by it's lines, the Missouri Pacific-Iron Mountain Railroad is putting forth vigorous efforts toward getting it's box cars in first class condition so they will be available for service when the grain movement begins. To that end. many of the company's cars are being practically rebuilt. Close to 50 box cars. practically new, are being turned out at the differ shops every day for this railroad, and the operating officials say that as a result of this work the com pany should be in a position to suc- cessfully handle it's share of the heavy grain movement which is ex- pected to begin about July lst.

MisdireCted Letters.

Few people realize how many misdirected letters reash the dead letter office. This is one branch of the postal service about which little is known.
 Postmaster General Bnr'eson has begun what is promised to be a vigorous campaign to remedy the carelessness of the public in ad- dressing mail matter.
 Complaint is made that the prae- tical efficiency of the postal ser vice is impaired very seriously by mistakes in addressing letters and packages.
 This is no doubt true. Many such letters and packages are re- turned to the sender because of the lack of proper address. Such mistakes are often unconsciously made but too frequently grow out of carelessness.
 The best regulatei tusines house is not exempt. Where it is possi- ble the person to whom the letter is addressed, even though the mum Der is wrong. is reached by the pos tai authorities. Otherwise the let ter is returned to the original sender when he is known. The unidentified letter goes to the dead leter office. which is the final point of destination.
 The degree to which this care less habit of misdireeting letters prevails especially in large cities can be sho"n by figures gathered from the Chicago postoffice. In a sing'e day 2O4, ,950 pieces ef mail matter were improperl9 addressed This was nearly half of the total volume handled in day The percentag4 is not so great in other cities. not because the people of Chicagosare more careless, but te- cause of the enormous amount of mail handle in day.

MEXICAN WAR SERIAL STORY
A Remarkable Feature That Will Be Appreciated by All of Our
 Readers.

Manifested Mexico is a subject In which every American is intensely fn- terested. It is safe to say that there are but few who really understand what has occasioned the years of fighting and devastation that has at- tracted the attention of the entire world
 Dane Coolidge in his remarkable story, The Land of Broken Prom ises,' gives an insight into the condi- tions in Mexico, and some of the fundamental causes of the numerous revolutions in such way as to make the story appreciated not only by those who like stirring fiction, but by those who like information.
 Coolidge has in the past, written some truly remarkable stories of the southwest, section with which he Is particularly familiar. His Hidden Water" The Fighting Fool" and The Texican." are classed as mas terpieces of this type of fiction. He is naturalist of international repu- tation and has performed valuable work in the southwestern states and in Mexico for the British museum. for the United States government. for the national museums of Italy and France. and for a number of the states and cities.
 The Land of Broken Promises" is his latest and by far his best work. and We feel that we are fortunate in being able to secure 1t for serial pub lication in our columns.

T went to see bull fight once, and one of the bulls got mad and be- gan to tear things up fearfully. One of the poor horses got mixed up in his harness and fell down. The bull saw the horse and dashed over to gore him to death. I couldn't bear to see such cruel sight, so jumped into the arena with pistol in my hand. When I got near the horse l found there was only one bullet in the gun, and paused to think what to do- shoot the horse or the bull

PRESS ASSOCIATION MffIlNG.
Editors Of State Royalty Entertained at llt-
 fIe Rock and Other Points.

The 42nd annual meeting of the Arkansas Press Association was held in Little Rock on Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday of last week and was the most successful ever held in point of attendance and interest.
 The entertainment in the capite ] city was under the auspices of the Little Rock Press Club and was the best and most hearty ever af- forded the soribes by that city. They were made to feel that the citizens were proud to have them as their guests and the entertain ment was so generous that it was with difficulty that the busi- ess program arranged for the benefit of those attending was carried out.
 As guests of the Little Rock Press Club the visiting editors and their wives were entertained at the leading hotels, served with four lunoheons by. them and one by the penitentiary commissioners, as we'll as.with picnic dinner at Forest Park. An organ recital by Miss Jablne, on the largest pipe organ in he city, and visit to the Majestic Theatre. as well as an automobile ride to the Country Club and state institutions where light refreshments were served, were also ineludedin the entertain ment.
 To the members of this club is due much credit for bringing the press of the country and city closer together than they have ever been and creating that friendly feeling one toward another which will do much for the state in general. as all are now of one accord. that what helps the city helps the coun- try and what helps the country helps the city.
 On Thursday morning a special train provided by the St. Louis. Iron Mountain & Southern Rail- way left Union Station with l83 editors and their ladies aboard, ac- companied by General Superip- tendent J. N. Dean and Assistant General Passenger Agent F. E. Schroeder, for three days tour of Northeastern Arkansas, whi c h proved to be one continual round of entertainment and surprises at the wonderful resources that are being rapidly developed in this sec tion of the greatest state in the Union.
 Stops were made at Beebe, Searcy, Judsonia, Bald Knob, New port. Mammoth Spring, Hardy, Hoxie, Walnut Ridge, Corning, Paragould. Jonesboro, Marke d Tree, Oceola. Blytheville, Harris burg and Wynne, and at each place the party was received with open arms and extended a hearty well come. Special mention is made of Searcy, where our train was deco rated with flowers and laden with strawberries and cakes; Bald Knob, where we were served with straw berries and cakes under long berry shed; Mammoth Spring, Corning, Blytheville, Hardy, Jones' boro and Wynne, where excellent meas were served.
 The country visited is fast be- coming a veritable garden spot and when the present drainage projects are completed Northeast Arkansas will come into her own as the rich est part of the state. The trip was revelation to many members oi the Press Association and all will sing the praises of that country and the boosting spirit of her citizens.
