SPRINGDALE PARTIES
 BUY MOTOR TRUCKS

S9rlnedale eople again take the lead in introducing new features Of the motor industry into this section.
 Latter pant of last week a repre- sentative of the Koehler one-ton mo- tor truck drove his demonstrator in- Q Springdaie having made the trip from Paducah, Ky He was ea route to Fo~t smith, where he expect ted to dis4oSe of some of his trucks. While in S2rtasdaie .oeal parties became in- terested in# his truck, and Friday Of last We iStiraan Eidson purchased the deanonstrator; while Chas. Smyer and James Arnold bought flew ma chine The demonstration is now at work doing freight duty between Springdale and Rogers, Rogers and |Bentonville, Springdale and Fayette. lvile, and Springdale and Huntsville. The new machine which will be driven by Jun Arrod, an old transfer man here, will be used almost exclus- E'tiS bSt tN'-'zI ibpf7NIo tlilb ho!l and Roeers and Be ftonyille, making l tNo trips ta Rogers and return each day, and two trips to Beatonville and return. The trucks are of 2.000 pounds capacity, and have speed of sixteen mile. per hour.
 The truck owned by Eidson will like be used fer freighting pur- poses between Springdale and Fay etteville, and Springdale and eastern points.
 On the introductory run Of the truck to Fayetteville, the trip was made in little over one hour. carrying 2609 pounds of ice, and other freight. The coming of the trucks will make business for the wholesale houses To- cated at Rogers and Bentonville who serve customers in Springdale. and nearby points.
 Ii was also intended 10 carry the mail from Springdale to Huntsville. but the road seeing trip proved the road to be in such condition that the truck cunld not carry the mail. and make the round trip on schedule time without tearDg the machne to pieces. There seems to be a stretch Of road this side of Huntsville that is in very poor condition, while some H the road this side of White River is in bad shape since the heavy rains. The matter of carrying the mail to Huntsville, as we'll as passen- gers will be considered a little later.

SEND HIM AWAY.

Lin Hinson, fo"me rly of Spring dale, is now resident Of Fay etteville: his change of resldene was not altogether through his own desiree in the matter and II Is certain that Fayetteville ex- pressed no such choice. Tie fact Is, Hinson IS supposed to be prisoner at the County Jail and IS supposed to be serving time hy reason of convictions on several counts as result of his leader ship in Sunday dehauchery near Springdale last April. He is now free to go mhere he likes and IS elassed as a trusty.
 Hinson wandered back 10 Springdale last Sunday and his appearance there caused a blg commotion in municipal affairs, As result of the agitation May or Lane has expressed a desire that City Marshal Avis bee dis charged from office. The main trouble with Avis seems to be that he had nerve enough to stop the desperado-lIinson.
 Only few days ago Hlnson was heard 10 call across the street to friend and say Red, let's s eet drunk and get ln jail again. Hinson should he be- hind the bars lie is pest to SO ciety and a menace to tile youth of our city.
 The Democrat has no fight 10 make on Sheriff Morton. We have commended his administra- ton of affairs throughout his ten ure of office and shall continue to do So as far as is consistent with good government. But cat tie like IIinson deserve no sympa- thy, no consideration and certain ly no privileges. If he is to be turned loose send him back to Springdalee.-Fayetteville Demo- crat. -

Sometimes dad says the paper
 Somehow ain't got up right And does a lot of knockin'
 When he reads it every night. He says there isn't in the sheet
 A thing worth while to read, And that it does not print the kind
 Of stuff the people need. He throws 1t in the corner
 And he says it's on the bum, But you ought to hear him holler When the paper fails to come. He reads about the Weddin's
 And snorts like all git out. He reads rhe social column
 With d most derisive shout: He.ll read about the parties
 And fuss and fret and groan, And says they print the paper
 For the women folks alone He says for information
 It does not contain a crumb, But you ought to hear him holler
 When the paper fails to come. He's always first to grab it

To Patrons Of The Oxford
Post Office.

Patrons Of this Office are vitality
interested in having their parcels
delivered 70 their friends on or
before Christmas day. Now, the
post master asks your co-oPers-
ton 70 accomplish this end. Your
parcels should be mailed early,
wrapped securely, addressed
plainly. Parcels may bear the
words "not to be opened until
Christmas" or similar inscription.
The timeliness of gifts depends
upon their being received on or
before Christmas day; early
mailing will insure this, whereas
the practice of mailing packages
late in hope that they will reach
their destination on Christmas
day is likely to defeat its own OBJ
iect through unavoidable delay
due to the consequent conges'
ton Of the mails. So do your
Christmas shopping early.
