THE JONES BOYS
IN JAIL AGAIN

Claude and Willie Jones of
Newark were placed in jail at
Little Rock Monday on charge
of grand larceny, to await the
action of the grand jury.
The boys are alleged to have
stolen some provisions from
the home of Otis DeCamp of
Little Rock last Saturday af-
teroon. They were arrested a
short time afterwards and
when given a preliminary trial
were bound over to the grand
jury. They were unable to give
bond and were placed in Jail.
The boys only recently fin
ished serving a prison
sentence for committing a
similar act in this county about
two years ago. After serving
out their time, they returned
to their home here about the
middle of March and afterless
than two months liberty they
are again in jail.

TWISTING THE TAIL
Of THE GOLDEN RULE

tice of parading their own vir-
lures and sneering at the frail-
ties of their neighbors
Some want to hog every
thing in sight, though the less
fortunate may experience the
pangs of hunger.
Occaionally we see a sane
timonious countenance in
church while the mind within
is as devoid of real brotherly
love as a fish is of feathers.
The Golde Rule?
Why, the poor, decrepit old
rule is strangling three hun
dred and sixty-fve days in the
year
It's coat of gold has turned
to rust and the once sparkling
waters of its purity are stag
nant from disuse.
| ne Golden Rufe
Can you point to a soul in
all this whole wide world who
in all things does unto others
as he would have them do I'M
to him.
Possibly, we too, are visit
ing the tail of the Golden Rule
when we publish this article,
for we are telling others of
their faults, when we have
may of our own-which we too
often forget.
We may not walk steadfast-
" in accordance with its teach
ings, but we may at least prac-
tice a portion of that which we
preach.
We may accord to others a
slight degree of that which we
demand for ourselves.

The Golden Rule is a good

tail to a FRAGILE.

wayward footsteps of human

in this town that neglect to
tread the golden pathway of

1t has been taught us at the
mother knee, preached to us
from the pulpit, fed to us in

The civic bodies and the business

They are naturally slow to condemn

one reason, few Of them have a per-

they have a business interest. since

to that of the medical profession

MORE BRITISH TROOPS
LANDING AT SAL0NIKI

London, Nov 29.-Allied troops
continue to land at Saloniki in large
numbers. A Reuter- dispatch says that
important British reinforcements
reached that port ON Thursday and
were landed Immediately.
After the occupation of Pristina by
the Austrians and Germans, the mes
sage says. the main body of Serbians
retreated in a southern direction. The
Serbians were unable to maintain
their positions in the Katchnik region,
owing to the greatly superior forces of
the invaders
Official announcement has been
made to commanders of the allied
troops at Saloniki of the guarantee
made ty the Greek government rela-
tive to freedom of action OF their ar
mics. Winter has set in earlier than
usual in the Balkans. 1t is expected
military operations on both sides will
be greatly hampered thereby.
