Change in Banking Hours.

On and after the 18th day of March this bank, under the re- quest of the state bank con- mission, will be opened at s o'clock a. m. and closed at 4 D. m. There will not be any person admitted before or after these hours. This will give the public eight hours in which to transact any business they may have with the bank, and the working force in the bank ample time to do their work before and after these hours. By doing this the State Bank Commissioner thinks we will be able to give better service and our board of direct ors think so too. We are going to ask that our friends and cus- toners cooperate with us in try ing out this plan.

Literary Club Hits
 Upon Novel Plan
Ingenious Method to Rid City of Old Rubbish Is Forward ed by Local Ladies---25c per Load is Offer.

Realizing the benefit to be de- rived from a general cleanup of the old rubbish and waste matter "bedecking" some of the alleys and streets of Ozark and from the standpoint of civic attractive ness, the Literary Club has be- come active in formulating plans which if every citizen will lend their assistance, will materialize in presenting this city as an example of civic attractiveness and the model town of western Arkansas.
 These plans consist of no other means than placing the cleanup proposition upon business basis, and in letter addressed to The Spectator, the local committee, composed of Mrs. Farris Greer, Mrs. Claud Wakefield, and Mrs. J. H. King, announce that they will, as an extra inducement, pay twenty-five cents for every hack load of rubbish gathered up and made ready to be carted away by the first of April. This affords an excellent opportunity for children to earn some ex- pense money and all are urged to get busy and see how many quarters they will be able to pile up between now and that time.
 Every spirited citizen should take an interest in this matter and help the Literary Club, who have paved the way, in the effort to beautify the town and thus make Ozark a brighter and more beautiful place to live in than ever before. All that is necessary is to get the rubbish ready, phone either member of the committee, named above and a wagon will be sent to remove the trash. Application for the bonus should be made to either of the leaders, Mrs. Greer, Mrs. Wakefield or Mrs. King.

Buried at St. Louis.

The remains of Daniel G. Dutton, who died at Little Rock last week were shipped to St, Louis for burial instead of to this place as was inferred by a tele gram received by relatives at this place Sunday. The tele gram was the basis of the state. ment made in Tuesdays Specta. tor that the remains would be shipped here.
 Mrs. Dutton asks us to state that Mir. Dutton was not arrest. ed as stated and that he was not taken to the asylum until some time in December of last year.

Fair Store Fixtures
 Made Things Lively
Shelving on One Side Started Something When it Decided to Take Day Of--Mrs. Jen- nings Injured.

The entire row of shelving on the south side of the Fair store started something last Wednes- day morning when it decided to topple over. Show cases were broken, goods, the contents of the shelving, were piled helter- skelter upon the floor and a casual glance would have given rise to the impression that a cyclone had been playing pranks in this popular store.
 It seems that the shelving was somewhat weak and owing to the fact that an unusually large stock had been purchased this year in anticipation of a large business and placed upon the shelves, said shelving was not equal to the occasion and some
 
 thing had to give away.
 Mrs. Jennings was standing upon the counter in an effort to remove something from one of the upper shelves when she heard the shelving give away. She jumped to another counter and in some manner fell and landed upon the floor. becoming somewhat mixed up with the experimentation of goods. She sustained a bruised ankle, and il is said that her escape from more serious injury was almost miraculous. Carpenters are al work repairing the unruly shelving. Manager Jennings states that. altho considerable damage was done, it is practi. cally an impossibility to place a conservative estimate upon the damage until everything is strengthened up.

Nazarenes Will Begin

Former Cowboy and Noted Evangelist Will Begin Reviv- al at Nazarene Church Next Thursday.

Announcement has been made that Rev. Bennett, an evangelist of Grabow, Louisiana, has been secured to conduct a revival at the Nazarene church in Ozark, beginning next Thursday, March 9th.
 A good attendance is anticipat- ed and it is hoped that consider able good will result as a conse- quence of the meetings. Rev. Bennett is a saved cowboy, a noted evangelist, and is known to many as Walking Bible" so thoroughly acquainted with, and so able is he to quote from that book.
 He is an interesting talker and it is considerable of a treat to hear him tell of his marvellous experiences. Everybody invited to attend the meetings and all Christians are especially urged to take part in the services.

Disagreed With Fac
 ulty; Disappeared
Quintet Made Near Sensational Leave" Following Alleged Slight Disagreement; Search ing Father Aided.

Five pupils of the industrial school, located about six miles north of Ozark attempted the near sensational Saturday when they are alleged to have escaped thru a window of the dormitory in which they were quartered and made their getaway into the night.
 According to our information the quintet, three boys and two girls had experienced some diff culty with the faculty. had be- come dissatisfied in some manner and had decided to return home. There seemed to be some ob- stacle in the way which made it necessary to leave secretly. This they attempted to do. It is reported that one of the boys had money enough to pay his railroad fare and it is presumed returned to his home.
 One of the girls. a miss of tender years, it is said, took refuge in a neighbours house some distance from the school, gaining access to the attic, where. after procuring pair of scissors, proceeded to trim her hair in the latest masculine style. The lady of the house discovered the girl and tried to induce her to come down, the girl refusing to do so. In the meantime, word reached town, the girls father who resides near Charles ton learned of the affair and he, in company with Deputy Sheriff Brandenburg, went to the scene and the young girl was restored to her father, they returning home that night.

 The district road runs over the railroad at an angle of thirty five degrees. A freight train was on side track at the time and it is said the driver was watching this train and whip ping up the horses just before the crash. He was unaware of the approaching passenger train going south.

DENOUNCES THE
DESTRUCTION Of
TEXTBOOKS

The State Health Board denounces
the destruction of more than 1000
state-owned free public school text
books by trustees of school, in which
there had been diptheria as vandalism
in the name of sanitation The Board
says: "In the widest flight of fancy
the letter from the school health board
used as justification could not have
been interpreted to demand the des.
truction of the entire supply of books,
though it might have sanctioned the
destruction of a few actually used by
sick children. In any event the act
was precipitated and unjustified and
showed lack of information regarding
the way in which diptheria is spread
and how it should be fought" :.
