HELP THE BOYS AND GIRLS

One of the greatest movements in America today is the work for the boys and girls through the various club activities. There are "Corn Clubs," Pig Clubs, Peanut Clubs," Cotton Clubs, Tomato Clubs," Poultry Clubs" Bread Clubs," Sewing Clubs" and many others. Fathers, and Mothers, are you encouraging these clubs? Or are you holding back and keeping your boys and girls out of these forms of education? There ought to be fifteen thousand boys and girls in these clubs in Arkansas next year. Give every boy pig and every girl pen (3) of chickens or at least give every girl two settings of good eggs next March. Give the girl sett- ings of eggs from pure bred flock and let her have all the money made the first year, and then form a part nership and let the girl have charge of the whole flock. Give the boy an acre for corn or cotton or peanuts and give the girl one-tenth acre for toma- toes. Give the young folks square deal. The Extension Division of the State and Federal Government is deeply concerned in the work for the boys and girls and three people are employed to devote their whole time to this work with MT. w. J. Jernigan, Specialist in Boys and Girls Club work in charge. Parents and teachers should write now to make next year the ban ner year for Boys and Girls Clubs in Arkansas.

BOARDER CHICKENS

While all are agreed that more poul try should be kept on the farms in Arkansas, it should no be forgotten that there are thousands of chickens that do not pay for their keep" It does not pay to keep any old roosters on the place. Every rooster should be fattened and sold in June or July. They are necessary only in the breed ing season when eggs are to be used for matching purposes. Sell off the old roosters and unless you believe in in breeding sell off all young roosters and then buy new males. During this winter these young roosters should be kept in small yard away from the hens. It does ot pay to keep the old hens as they do ot lay enough to pay for their lodging" let alone the pay for the feed. The Extension Divi- sion of the College of Agriculture at Fayetteville has free bulletins on poultry management for persons inter ested in poultry.

Cuts Of His Finger as Object
 Lesson.

We have heard of the absent minded man who struck at a fly on his nose with his razor, but never of human being who cut off second finger in explaining how he happened to lose the first one. In the current issue of Farm and Preside is the following story of man who succeeded in this remarkable achievements;
 "He did not know much about ma chinery, but thought he would put one of his hands down near rapidly whirling circular saw to see if he could feel any rush of wind. He ven tured too far and lost one of his fing- CTS, cut off as by mighty knife.
 "'How did you do it? someone ask ed, hearing the cry of terror and pain from the mans lips.
 "'Why, I wanted to feel the wind and held out my hand like this,' was the reply as the thoughtless man put out the hand which had not yet suf- fered from contact with the pitiless saw. That hand, too, was thrust too near the teeth of the saw and another finger went too."

An Indefinite Question.

Two men were working on the road near a small town in South Arkansas. As they worked they discussed various people and affairs of national impor- tance. Finally one of them referred to the secretary of war and the other asked:
 "Joe, who is the present secretary of war;"
 "Why I can't think of his name just now," replied Joe, "but here comes Uncle Dave Blake; we'll ask him."
 As the old man drove up the labor CTS called out, Say, Uncle David, can you tell us who the secretary of war is ?"
 Uncle David thought deeply for minute.
 "Well, I ought ter know, but, bless me, 1 can't seem ter remember" And he drove on.
 Soon they saw Uncle Dave coming back, and when he came within hail. ing distance, he called out:
 Say, Joe, what war did you mean, anyhow?"

much this millionairess that was In
his mind but the many women and
girls. who without money and fine
clothes, might be lured to Broadway
and there DO made slaves through
their desires for the things other
women there possessed.
Eugenia Kelly promised her mama
that she would be good and shun
Broadway. She was taken from
court and forgiven. But still there
remained that blemish on New York
night life. The word had gone forth.
The Kelly case had started the ball
a-rolling. Police were notified to
exercise more careful watch over
the place and as . result Broadway
is quiet-very quiet. Its very ex-
istence is in the balance. Broad
way long has catered to men and
women of various tastes and has
been permitted to follow the ways
and rules that are known only to
Broadway:
But when it came a matter of con-
sidering the case OF a wealthy young
girl. Broadway changed It's aspect
considerably. Certainly. many
mother has protested Its ways when
her daughter came home to her
drunk from its wines or ruined from
the indulgence 1t permits. But their
complaints never were listened to
by the police. Broadway had the
prerogative of taking young girls
and doing as it pleased with them
and grinding them IN Its iron maws,
tearing down the barriers OF their
training and making them At for as
sociation with others on Broadway,
until the Kelly case came up.
Broadway has been shown place
of wickedness and it's very existence
ia now threatened in a white Way
sense. Berlin and Paris have lost
their attractions for bcnviyants
since the war and now even BROAD
way is threatened. There Is . lid
on the tango places and Broadway
is closing early so that the saloon
and cafes may retain their licenses.

and the lights are begrimed and the

"oh, the cats" said Eugenia Kelly
when they did not appear, They say
they are afraid of the notortety and
wouldn't come to court to help me
prove my case. What do you think
of them for friends?"i
Eugenia will inherit 100000 in

home of her sister. Mrs. Ralph Hill

Her mother. who brought the COM
