Good Citizens Leave Us

The writer has had very little TO do
with the local or editorial work on The
Times for several weeks, owing to i'll
ness, but ever since we saw the item
in The Times couple of weeks ago
in which it was stated that our
esteemed fellow townsman, Judge W.
w. Hughes, had determined to leave
Forrest City, we have very much
wanted to express TO him and through
The Times TO the public, our deep
regret at the loss of such an eStim-
able gentleman and scholar, and Of
such splendid little family-the
good wife and babies. Judge and
Mrs. Hughes have resided in Forrest
City about four years, coming here in
January, 1910, and they have en-
deared themselves to very large
circle Of acquaintance, and made a
large number of very dear and near
friends who will join in these regrets
and good wishes. We had hoped they
had come here to live, and die when
the grim reaper come their way long
years hence, and we are at a loss for
language TO express our keen disap-
pointment by the fact of their leav-
ing Judge Hughes is a citizen of the
kind and character that builds cities.
| We are sorry indeed to lose him as
a citizen, and we commend them to
those strangers among whom they
are now about to cast their lot. We
wish him the utmost success in his
practice ana all ambitions. and hope
they will find genial and sunny sur
roundings and be pleasantly and hap
PLY situated in Memphis. Sorry in
deed TO see you go, old man.

Deafness Cannot BE Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There Is only
one way TO cure deafness, and that is by CON
stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused 10y
an intiamed condition of the mucous lining OF
the Eust achian Tube. When this tube is in
iiamed you have aTumhling sound or mper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result, and unless the in1ama-
ton can be taken ont and this tube restor cd
to its normal condition, hearing will be de-
StrOyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrb, which is nothing but an
inliamed condition of the mucous surfaces
We will give one Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that can
not lac cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send

Synagogue for Forrest City

Tefereth Israel Congregation was
instituted on Sunday, March %, at
Odd Fellows hall by Rabbi Max Sam
field. Of the Poplar Avenue TEN pie,
OF Memphis, Tennessee, and also or
gained Sabbath school under the
auspices of the Synagogue and Sab
bath school extension department of
the Central Conference of American
Rabbits. The following officers were
elected: Messrs Gus Levy, president;
H. j. Warshavsky, vice president;
Louis Barnett, secretary and treas
urer. The Sabbath school is in charge
of Miss Jennie Warshavsky, Mr.. L.
Blumberg and Mr.. Louis Barnett.
We are very pleased to see that
Miss Jennie has consented to give
this work her attention. She is a very
capable little lady, and when interest
ed in any work, has the ability and
energy to make it success. The
gentlemen, too, are earnest workers
in everything that has for its object
the Detterment OF their race. We
congratulate our Jewish friends upon
this spiritual enterprise, and wish for
it and them the utmost success.
There is every indication that a
B'nai Birth lodge will be established
here in the near future. The B'nai
Birth is the largest and most repre-
sentative Jewish organization in the
world and is notable for its extensive
work in charity. The order chronicles
its services to the Jewish people and
to Judaism. Hospitals and orphan
ages. homes for the destitute and
/ feeble minded, settlement centers and
employment bureaus, from the Pacific
to the Atlantic. and from Berlin TO
Jassy, offer monumental evidence Of
a charitable activity requiring an out
lay of vast sums and just as rich in
its beneiicent results. Mr. l.. Barnett
is putting forth bis every effort in
this direction, and if the b mai Birth
is organized here, it will be due TO his
activities, and he deserves the credit.
