MASS MEETING To
DISCUSS STOCK YARDS
MEN BEHIND MOVEMENT PRE-.
DICT GREAT THINGS FOR
THIS CITY If THEY ARE
ESTABLISHED.
Proposition Is TG Be Discussed Al
Chamber Of Commerce Assembly
Hall Tonight.

The mass meeting to be held i,
the Assembly room of the Chamber
of Commerce tonight at o'clock, an,
which will be attended by the mem
bers Of the Chamber of Commerce
the Young Mems Progressive League
and the public generally, promises (
set in motion wheels of bushes:
which will grind out new industrial
era for Pine Bluff, as, at that time
the organization of a big stock yards
will be consuimated.
While this section of the country
has run much to cotton in the pas
those who have taken interest in the
new movement, say that Pine Bluff
and Arkansas can become equally a;
we'll known for live stock as cotton
and with the. two great fields combin
ed, can attain a still greater com
mercial Importance.
From United States government
figures it is known that there are
more hogs raised in Arkansas than
in Texas; the state is also a large
producer of cattle, and sheep, ant
yet, at Fort Worth, Texas, there is a
great big business done with packing
plants and stock yards.
Between Fort Worth and st. Joe
Mo-, there are no big plants and
stock yard facilities, although the
new plant which has been construct
ed in Pine Bluff will be in opera
ton within the course of the next few
week, and it is held that this city
is the logical, point for big stock
yards. 1t is maintained by those
who are behind the movement for the
stock yards, that this city would do
way with many long hauls on rail-
roads, aad that Pine Bluff would be-
come great clearhouse point for a
vast territory.
While there is much live stock
raised in this state alt present, it is
held that the operation of the pack
ing plant and establishment OF
stock yards will be an incentive to
a far greater production, and that
farmers will thea be able to secure
competitive bids for their live stock.
The younger business men of the
city, as we'll as the older ones, have
BEEN enthusiastic over the stock
yards proposition and declare con-
fidently that the scheme will shortly
become a reality. A large attend
ance has been asked SO that many
more can become interested in the
movement.

NO SODA OR CIGARS
ON THE SABBATH DAY
Attorney General Moose Says Grand
Juries are Negligent If They Do
Not Prohibit Their Sale.

Little Rock, Jan. 2S.-Attorney
General Moose has delivered an
opinion that 1t is unlawful to sell
saltwater or cigars on Sunday. A
few days ago he decided that it is a
violatio2,of the law to operate a
livery stable on Sunday.
He admits that the law is quite
generally ignored but expresses the
opinion that grand juries are negll
gent Of their duty when the fail to
prosecute.
His latest opinion, addressed to DR.
I. G.. Gorham Of Wilton, is as fol
lows: "In regard to the selling Of
cold drinks and cigars on Sunday,
have the honor to state that In my
topinion it is a violation of the law
to operate a soda-fountain on Sun
day, or to sell cigars on that day.
The law is ignored in many places
in the state. particularly In the
larger cities, but the fact that the
law is not observed would not ex-
cuse one In case the grand jury
should indict him or in case ht
should be arrested upon the charge
Of sabbath breaking"

AT THE HIGH SCHOOL
BY John Sorrells
*++ + + + + + + + + + + i

The heighth of excellence in school
work is 100 or E plus, as it is grad
ed in the schools now. From IS to
100 is graded E. To many pupile to
make an E on examination Is an
epoch in their school career and the
elimination of all earthly happiness.
A pupil who succeeds in working
this work is an object of awe and
reverence to the other pupils. In
the recent exams, a very high and
pleasing record was made. 20 pupils
art The proud possessors og Els.
Two made E in every study-five of
them; II made four Els and 10 made
E in their studies. Application is
. the secret or rather one character
istic of success. Phe' result of ap-t
! plicatton was forcibly brought out
I by the splendid records made on the
mid-year exams. by the 20 Honor
Pupils. These students, though all
of them are bright, are not except
ionally brilliant. No geniuses. Just
ordinary bright students. Their
secret of success is no secret at all
application. They studied con-
sistently and are now enjoying the
fruits of their labor. Enjoyment OF
laurels comes only after the contest
has been hard. There is no honor
in making when no work Or con-
centration is employed in gaining the
desired ends. What these bright
students who have gained the coveted
Honor Roll have done you can do II
you try. Many say they are content
barely to pass, but what pupir is
there whose pulse doesn't ti1gle with
a feeling of pride when he is excel
lent in his work? There is no
pupil so brilliant but that he doesn't
have 20 study to make good grads.
They can't "get by" without study
ing, but the student who, just tries
to get by will soon be passed by AID
left far in the rear by tthe just
medium students who applies him
self. E in a grade is the result OF
hard, honest work and not the flashy
brilliance of the genius. Forget the
idea of getting by, but study hard to
learn. What we learn is ours, aot to
be stolen or taken from us. we
learn only by application. None OF
us are geinuses SO let's get to WORK
and study and swell the number Oh
the Honor Roll from 20 to 229. The
following pupils have earned the
right to place on the Roll OF
Honor. Those who made in five
studies are Adele Bluthenthal and
Josephine Martin. Those making =
in four studies are: Chauncy Olcott,
Marguerite Brewster. frankie East
erly, Lynne Koonce, Frances Howell,
Grace Jackson, Bessie Merele Wells'

ARKANSAS HOME
OF MANY PLAYERS
Tesreau, Vaughan, Robinson, Wood
and Others Came From
Bear State

Bear State.
Though Arkansas has had no repre-
sentation in organized baseball for
several years, except the Texarkana
team in the Oklahoma-Texa league,
the Razorback state is gaining a rep
| utation as producer of fast baseball
material.
For years Charles Schmidt, catcher
for Detroit, was the only Arkansas
representative in the major circles.
Schmidt is likely to be back in the
big ring next season unless he is se7
lected as the manager of Mobile, due
to the great season he had last year
at Mobile, being the leading catcher
in the Southern league. Schmidt and
Gabby Street, who is with Chatta-
nooga, proved real me-backs, and
negotiations for their return to the
big tent are under way.
Paulette, first baseamn for Mobile
for two years, who is still young
ster, barely ont Of his teens, was car
ried over one season by McGraw and
farmed out to Mobile. He developed
with rush during the season of
1913, fielding much like Hal Chase
and batting near the coveted 800
mark. Cleveland is after Paulette.
Wood, an all-around infielder, tick
eted last spring from the University
of Arkansas : to Pittsburg, where he
remained for, several months, being
used as an outfielder and batting ov-
err .3OO;, has been drafted from Sioux
City, where Fred Clarke placed him,
by Cleveland. Wood will stick if
played regularly.
! Bill Luhrsen, recently cut adrift
by Pittsburgs after being bought from
the South, Atlantic and pitching three
winning games for the Pirates, is a
native of Argenta, across the river
from Little Rock.
Rube Robinson, of Pittsburg;
Vaughn, of the Cubs; Perritt, Of the
Cardinals, and Tesreau,. of the Giants,
were four of the twirlers in the tot
tering Arkansas league, several years
ago, and Luhrsen was also in this
company, but could not hold his own.
Speaker was developed in Arkansas,
and Connolly, outfielder for the
Braves, was a pitcher on the same
team. Manager Finn, of the Turtles
could not see Connolly as a pitcher
and recommended that he try the out
field in the future. He did, and rose to
the major, organization.
aAnd no less a star than Jack Love-
Turtle fielder, resides in the Bear
state. Jack hangs around Russell7
Vile, and during the winter chases
crooks, heads posses, puts out fires
and makes himself generally useful.

Judge HOlc0mb's Record

In the nearly SIX years that
Judge o. r. Holcomb has been
on the Superior Court bench,
besides holding court in the
three counties of his district, he
has also held court in Lincoln,
Stevens, Ferry, Spokane, Whit
man, Yakima, Kittitas, Clarke,
Skamania and King counties,
and has tried and decided, in all
those counties, something like
sixteen hundred cases.
Of these, the losing party has
felt like appealing to the sup
RENE court in exactly eighty
cases, so far as the records
show to August &c, 1914, of the
decisions of the supreme court,
of which number only twenty
cases were reversed by the sup
RENE court. The other sixty
were not reversed, as shown by
the records and Supreme courts
published reports.
Since the supreme court fire.
quently reverses itself, and
frequently disagree among
themselves, as to the law Of the
state, the above is considered
an exceedingly good record for
a superior court judge in this
state.
