All the members of the local team played the game of the season and to make special mention of individual players, would be to mention the en- tire team. The game was an oppor- tunfty for every man to show their worth, and the local boys took ad- vantage of it. The game, while con taining few wrangles and disputes, was particularly free from outbreaks of wrath. Every inch was stubborn ly fought for, and Springdale people have every reason to be proud of the 1914 foot ball team of Springdale High.

SLUGGISH LINERS
 STATED PLEASANTLY
NO NEED I'D RISK DISAGREE ABLE, DANGEROUS CALOMEL NOW THAT DODSON'S LIVER TONE TAKES ITS PLACE.

Plenty of peopfe-thousands of them-have found that it is no longer necessary to risk being "all knocked out" by taking calomel when consti- pated or suffering from a sluggish liver.
 Nowadays Dodson's Liver Tone takes the place of calomel.
 What calomel does unpleasantly and often with danger, Dodson's Liver Tone does for you safely and pleasantly, with no pain and no gripe. It does not interfere in any way with your regular business, habits or diet.
 Calomel is poison, form of mer cury, a mineral Dodson's Liver Tone is an all-vegetable liquid.
 Of course, this reliable remedy has it's imitators. But Dodson's Liver Tone has been made to take the place of calomel right from the start. The label on the bottle always has said so. And it is widely known to- day how good Dodson's Liver Tone is as a remedy and that Dodson never makes eXtravagant statements. He says that it '1ivens the liver, overcomes constipation agreeably and makes you feel good, and if you are net satisfied completely with 1t Greeson Cruz Company. will hand back the purchose price A5Oc.) to you with smile.
 Such statements could not be made without true merit to back them up and it is easy for you to prove them for yourself at no cost if not satisfied and convinced. (advt.)

M0RRILTON CONDEMNS
 CITY WAFER SYSTEM
WATER IS RE PORTED TO CITY COUNCIL
 BY COMMITTEE.

Morrilton S waterWOrks system was sharply criticised in report by 8 special committee of the city council submitted at it's last meetin. The re- port, in part, is as follows:
 Our first investigation was that of the water system. We find this water in very bad condition, being pumped directly from the muddy creek and with no Altering whatever. We were told by the manager of the water works system that the filter was out of order and that it was impossible to filter the water at this time. The manager has promised to begin at once to give us clear water, by pump ing day and night into a reservoir or settling basin and then pump the wat CT into the stand pipe. This will en- able them to furnish clear water until the Altering system can be repaired.
 We find that the Waterworks Go. has 48 hydrants in service, all in first class shape, and we also find that some of the hydrants are closer to- gether than needed. We find that the water pressure is up to the standard and we are assured by the manager that in case of fire, if the stand pipe was empty, that they could give direct pressure from the pumps and could furnish sufficient water for protection.
 "We have inspected the property of the city fire company and find some things badly needed. They have 1000 feet of frst-class hose that can be fit ted into three lines; the hose cart is in good repair, the hook and ladder truck is in bad order and some of the ladders misplaced, some repairs and parts are needed to complete the fire machinery, some of the property be- longing to the city, such as rock wag- ons, etc, can not be found, and we understand that some of this property is being used by parties out of the city"

Agricultural Department, the Agri- cultural Schools and the Agricultural College of the University. At least forty of the seyenty-fve counties are being reached. In a number of the counties the teachers are so thoroughly aroused over the work, that they are voluntarily extending the sessions to two weeks and even a month at sheir own expense.

 LAST HAS ARRIVED
From Mondays Daily.

From Mondays Daily
 Had you thought of it? These past two or three weeks of temperatures ranging above the 100-mark almost daily were only spring weather, Summer arrived at an early hour this morning and some really warm days may now be expected. According to the almanac the sun reached it's max imum distance in it's journey north- ward from the equator at 1247 a. m. today, and at that instant summer was formally usnered in, to continue for a period of three months. This also has the distinction of being the longest day in the year. In this lat titude the period between sunrise and sunset is IA hours and 59 minutes, and it will be only nine hours and one minute from the time the sun goes down this evening until it rises to- morrow morning.

RETIRES AFTER LONG
 AND FAITHFUL SERVICE
W. NJ. LYON SUCCEEDED AS GREENBRIER POSTMASTER
 BY c. R. ALEWINE.

Washington dispatches today car
 " the information that George R.
 Alewine has been appointed as post master of Greenbrier, Faulkner coun- ty succeeding William M Lyon. While the appointment of MT. Ale wine, who is a former Normal student and a progressive young citizen of that vicinity, will doubtless prove sat Iisfactory to the patrons of that office, the news of Postmaster Lyons retire
 ment will be received with genuine regret by his hundreds of friends For about 20 years MT. Lyon has
 rendered faithful and efficient ser
 vice and has built up the office until
 it is now one of the most important
 in the county, having four rural
 routes and several star routes. Per
 sonally acquainted with every man,
 woman and child in a radius of 10
 miles of Greenbrier, MT. Lyon took
 great pains to see that every letter, paper and parcel which came to his office was delivered promptly to the correct addressee. If by chance the Log Cabin Democrat failed to send ae Greenbrier subscriber his paper, this office was sure to hear from MT. Lyon, and if the missing paper did not arrive by the following mail we would hear again. It is this kind of personal service in addition to the regular duties of his position that has made Postmaster Lyon warm favor ite with his patrons.
 When the order was made classi- flying postmasters in fourth-class offices in the civil service and the eX- were held here last winter, MT. Lyon decided, on account of impaired health, not to make ap- plication for re-appointment. Physi~ cally he is a man of immense pro- portions and aften calls himself the biggest Republican in the state" Of recent years his health has not been so vigorous as formerly and he is beginning to find it difficult to at- tend to the duties of the position with his usual energy. His many friends wish for him, however, many remain ing years of health and happiness.
 Among other recent fourth-class for nearby postoffices are the re-appointment of G. E. Gentry at Guy and the appointment of Frank J. Mcclure at Gleason and Odes F. Roed at Austin, Lonoke county.

From MonGa7's Daily.
 First copies of the new state re-
 form paper, The Arkansas Prog
 ress,' were received in Conway Sat
 urday afternoon and the journal made a good impression, judging from the many complimentary remarks passed upon it. It is a seven-column, eight-page sheet and is we'll gotten up, both editorially and mechanically. Col. J. R. Taylor, former editor of the Paragould Soliphone, is editor of the Progress. David A. Gates, chairman of the State Tax Commission, is pres ident, and Col. George Thornburg, the well known Masonic. prohibition and church leader of Little Rock, is sec retary of the corporation publishing the paper.
 The Progress has for the leading article in it's first issue a paper by Dr. John ". Conger, president of Central College of this city. on "The Ethical Relation of Our Schools" Dr. Conger urges a closer relationship be- tween the denominational institution and the public or state schools, col leges and universities. The religious school he says, has, however, a dis tinctive place which cannot be filled by any other institution. "The dis tinctive function of the denomination al coleoes,' Dr. Conger says. lis the first to spiritualize the educational ideals of our whole educational sys- tenn, and, in the second place, to pre- pare spiritual leaders, not only for service in the church, but for the state and for business enter prises and for general educational work. The small denominational col lege has always furnished the great leaders for our country in every line of endeavor. Their graduates have been the champion of reform in gov ernment, religion, society and busi- ness. The state institutions are mar shaling the masses of students and gre giving thorough equipment and splendid instruction and should rec ognize the value of the contribution of the distinctively spiritual ideals of the Christian college

WEES RELIGION BRINGS
 ATTACK ON DUNAWt !
FORMER CONWAY EDUCATOR HAS OPPOSITION AT
 TEXARKANA.

TeXarkana, Tex, June 18.-Per- sistent and apparently well-authen- ticated rumor for the past several days has it that Superintendent O. L.. Dunaway of the Texas public schools, who has served four years as such and was reelected for an- other term by the School Board which retired about a month ago, is slated for removal by the new School Board.
 The only active opposition to Mr.. Dunaway is said to come from a secret religious organization known as the Knights of Luther, which is said to be strongly anti-catholic. It is said they base their objection to Mr. Dunaway on the fact that Mrs. Dunaway is of Catholic parentage although it is asserted she has never been a communicant of that church.
 It is reported the congregation of the Pine Street Presbyterian church, where Mr. Dunaway has taught a class in Sunday school the past two years, on last Sunday passed strong resolutions endorsing Mir. Dunaway's views on religion and also his worth mess and general fitness as a teacher. He has strong friends in all the churches, and it is known these in tend to make a determined fight to see that he is retained as superin- tendent.
