THE COUNTY FAIR.

Shall the fifth annual Faulkner county fair, held last October, be the last? We are prompted to ask this question for the reason that at this time one year ago preliminary ar engagements for the county fair had already been made. A manager had been employed, the work of preparing the catalogue was in progress and the date for the fair had been selected. So far as we can ascertain nothing in this direction has been done this year.
 It may be that the people are tired of the fair. The history of other Ar kansas counties has been that after four or five years interest begins to lag and the enterprise is dropped. We had hoped, however, that this would not be true of Faulkner county. The fairs here have been eminently successful and with the exception of small deficit last year have always paid expenses.
 But if we are to have sixth annual fair 1t is time that the matter should be decided.

NEW NAPOR TREATMENT THAT RELIEVES COLDS OVER NIGHT
 GROUP IN FIFTEEN MINUTES.

Most people dread taking medicines. They shrink from the taste and after effects. Yet for as long as they can remember they have been dosing the stomach to cure cold troubles.
 This is no longer necessary as the new vapor treatment, brought here from North Ca oiina. does away with internal medicines for these troubles.
 It is a simp and harmless salye that is applied over the throat and chest The heat of the body releases the vapors of Camphor, Menthol, Thy mol Eucalyptol, and Pine Tar, and these vapors are inhaled, all night long, through the air passages to the lungs.
 You don't re1lize in the morning that you really had cold, as the head is clear pblegm loosened and sore ness gone from the lungs. Group really is relieved in l5 minutes, and for all infiammations of the air pas sages. such as bronchitis. asthma. ca tarrh, hoarseness. etc., this new treat ment will be found unusually effective

W. H. DUNCAN FOR MAYOR.

In this issue of the Log Cabin Dem- ocrat appears the formal announce ment of Judge W. H. Duncan as candidate for reelection as mayor of Conway, subject to the action of the
 Democratic primary In offering for reelection Judge Duncan desires to call attention to the fact that the pledges made by him have been car
 ried out-the new passenger depot is a reality, the light plant has been re-
 built and put in good financial condi- tion; several miles of sidewalks and
 many street crossings have been con structed, several public drinking foun- tains installed, and the city generally
 improved. In the administration of the city ordinances he states that he has been neither too lenient nor too severe. The present condition of the streets, the mayor asserts, is due to excavations during the waterworks and sewerage construction, and he promises that if elected, with these obstacles out of the way, he will see
 that the streets are at once put in permanently good condition. He re
 spectfully solicits the votes of all
 Democrats who stand for the upbuild-
 ing of Conway along every worthy line. (adv)

GOING AMONG THE PEOPLE
A significant statement appears, i

A significant statement appears, in- advertently perhaps, in the latest weely dope" sent out to the news papers by Senator Clarke's press agent at Little Rock, in an effort to try to create the impression that the rural districts are favorable to the senator's reelection. Those who think the country folks are opposed to Clarke were never more distant from the truth" the corresp spondent claims. And here comes the rather surprising admission:
 "The way to find out how the peo- pie are is to go among the people. There have been well informed men in every county in the state doing this very thing in behalf of Senator Clarke for the past four weeks. The report they send in is all the same, |" etc.
 These well informed men" who are travelling over the state in behalf of Senator Clarke, you may be assured, are not simply doing so for the pur- pose of putting their ears to the ground and ascertaining the strength of the Kirby forces. They are doubt less also we'll supplied with other things besides information. Knowing how overwhelming is the sentiment for Judge Kirby, especially in the ru- ral districts, and realizing how futile 1t is for the senator to attempt to defend his record from the stump, these we'll informed gentlemen-ho many of them the press agent does not state-have been employed to "go among the people"
 This is the last desperate scheme of the already defeated senator and the small coterie of aristocratic friends and office-seekers who are supporting him. Hire some well informed men and send them out among the people-they will know how to fix itl But the time is happily past in Arkansas when few

A PRETTY

A pretty wedding took place at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Peter Short on
Eleventh avenue, Monday evening,
when their daughter, Miss Grace, be-
came the bride of Mr.. Charles H. Nc
Cartney.
The ceremony took place at eight
o'clock, the officiating minister being
Rev. c. F. Hoffman of the United Pres
byterian church, and the beautiful ring
service was performed beneath a
bower of palms and ferns. Miss Sadie
Callahan played the wedding march.
The ceremony was witnessed by
about seventy-ive relatives and
friends.
After congratulations to the happy
young couple, delicious refreshments
were served in the dining room.
The brides dress was white crepe
de meteor, and she carried a bouquet
of rosebu6s and m%arguerites. She was
unattended.
The house decorations were of cut
flowers and smilax and were unusual
ly pretty.
The presents of silver, cut glass,
and china were many and beautiful.
Mr.. and Mrs. Mccartney will make
their home in Brookings, the groom
being the proprietor of the tailor shop
at the Columbia clothing store. He
came to Bookings about a year ago,
and had made a large circle of friends
and acquaintance. The bride is a
splendid young lady, and fitted in
every way to make her husbands
home a happy one. The Register
wishes to join with the friends in con
gratnlations and the hope that every
happiness may come to them.

"kEL" AN

We are in receipt of a copy of the
Moscow, Idaho, Daily Star-Mirror,
which contains a very good write-up of
the production of "The Mikado" by
the university students. Eugene Kelly
took the leading part and received the
following favorable mention, which
would lead us to believe that "Kel" is
some actor: "The browning triumph
of the opera was, of course, the re-
markedly clever acting of Mr.. Eugene
Kelly. MI. Kelly is not a great singer,
but perhaps his topical songs were all
the funnier for that; and his incisive
enunciation got every word of the
pointed and jolly lines across the foot
lights. He seemed to improve in his
acting from the first, and by the time
the second act was well under way his
every gesture, his every movement and
speech was ~screamingly funny"

RECORD PRICE FOR FARM

The record price for Bookings
county farm land was hung up Tues
day, when Prof. J. H. Shepard sold his
farm just east of the city to A. A.
Meeker, from ear Chicago. The con.
sideration was $127.50, and the deal
was made through H. G.. Williams.
This may seem a big price, but the
farm is a fine one with good improve
ments and is worth all that was paid
for it and more 1t is only a question
of a few years when practically all
Brookings county land will go to this
figure and above, and the man who
pays any reasonable price is making a
good investment. A couple Of years
ago the Thayer farm, just east of the
Shepard place, was sold for 1924 an
acre. Mr.. Meeker will move here the
coming spring. His principal reason
for buying near Brookings was that he
might educate his children in the
Brookings city schools and at the State
College.
