Some six or seven years ago, the
Crawford Apartment Building, 5000 S.
Wabash avenue, was placed under the
control of Mr.. j. w. Casey, the sue
cessful real estate dealer, and at that
time he changed out the white tenants
and put in Colored.
Prior to making the change, the
building was only about half full and
running at a loss. But now it is fully
rented and has been right along with
no vacancies.
Mr.. Casey, understanding how to do
business, last year moved into the
Chamber of Commerce Building, 1873
w. Washington street, and occupies a
neat suite of rooms on the fourth floor
of that building.
He handles and manages property in
all parts of this city and sells farm and
timber lands as far west as Oregon.

HEALTH FOR THE BABY

The health of the baby depends upon
the mother instinct plus scientific aid.
These cannot be dwelt upon at great
length in the space at our disposal; the
primary principles only can be men
toned here. The writer will be glad
to furnish free a booklet on the sub
ject which contains a page for the
record or history of the baby.
The most important factor in the
health of the baby is the food. For
various reasons many babies will not
be given the best known food, namely
the milk from the breast of the
mother. Next to the mothers milk
the most valuable food is cows milk
properly modified. And the proper
modification of the cows milk is a
scientific matter that can be learned
by any normal adult who is entrusted
with the care of baby. Cows milk
must be rendered suitable to the del
icate stomach of the baby, if it must
be fed to the baby. It must be free
from pathogenic germs (diseasepro-
ducing micro-organisms). Science has
evolved a process that enables mothers
to render. cows milk digestible for
babies and free from disease-producin

APPOINTMENTS BY GOVERNOR
HARRINGTON. A DEMOCRAT

Strange to say and to see, the long
list of appointments sent to the Senate
by Governor Harrington contained no
less than six Colored persons as
notaries public, one of whom, Mrs.
Minnie B. Lewis, is the first Colored
woman in the State to be so honored.
In these appointments four more per-
sons were appointed than by Governor
Goldsborough.
Those appointed are as follows: Mrs.
Minnie B. Lewis, connected with the
Mutual Benefit Society and the bank
ing house of William o. Wilson;
Messrs. w. L. Fitzgerald, Truly

Baby should not be fed during proper
sleeping hours for the mother; if any
thing is given baby in the night it
should be water which is always good
day as well as night. Give water in
abundance internally and externally.
Do not feed the baby every time it
cries; some crying is good exercise at

To protect wood against fire, silicate

There are traces Of an organization
for the extinction of fire as far back as

There is no doubt that the original
method of finding fire was by the fric-

|DOYNE IS EX0NFRATFD AND
 COMMENDED BY TRUSTEES

in the administration of his duties as president of the State Normal School
 A report to the board by the re- cently-appointsd registrar, J. P. Ma chin, was read and it is understood that this report was also a complete vlndlcation of any charges of inten- tional irregularities against the Nor nal president.
 News of the boards action will be received with profound qualification by the citizens of Conway, practically all of whom have deeply resented the under-handed attacks seeking to dis credit MT. Doyne in the eyes of the public and of the board of trustees. The vote of MT. Cook against the res olution endorsing the president would seem to verify the belief which has existed here for some time that he has led in the effort to oust Mr. Doyne from the presidency.
 Motives for the fight on the Normal School president are of course matters of conjecture, but the people of Con way have at all times felt the utmost confidence in MT. Doyne and felt as sured that the facts in the case would completely vindicate him.
 By the adoption of the resolution which not only ignored the charges preferred by Findley's report, but al so completely endorsed the admins tration of President Doyne, the board of trustees virtually took the same stand as did mass meeting of citi- zens of Conway at the preceding ses- sion of the board, when a telegram was sent, vigorously condemning the Findley report and endorsing Presi- dent Doyne. Shortly afterwards Find ley filed suit in the federal court against six of the men who signed the telegram, asking judgment for S25 1000 damages. In his complaint Fimdley alleged that he was a citizen of Texas. although he had just been appointed as deputy by State Superintendent Cook.
 Only one member, L. s. Dunaway of Conway, was absent from the meet ing of the board of trustees today. The other members are George B. Cook, chairman; B. w. Torreyson. secretary; State Treasurer R. G. Me Daniel, and State Auditor M. F. Dick lnson, all of Little Rock; Judge A. L. Hutchins of Augusta, and Rev. T. o. Owen of Hot Springs.

 Whenever three or more townships have been formed into a unit for re- straining stock under this law, other townships may be attached to and become a part of the unit in the same manner as the district is originally formod.
 Those favoring the district in this county declare it will be an easy matter to secure the necessary 25 per cent of the voters for the peti- tions and that it will carry when sub mitted to a vote.

 Receives Majority.

Circulation of petitions for the for nation of big fencing district em- bracing six townships and covering the entire western half of the coun- ty was begun today and if the plans of those favoring the proposition mature, it will come up for a vote at the general election in November. Should the question receive major ity at the election all kinds of stock, including horses, mules, asses, cattle, hogs, sheep and goats, will be pro- hibited from running at large with in the district. The townships pro posed to be included in the district are Hardin, Union, East Fork, Cali fornia, Walker, Clifton, Cadron and Benedict.
 The measure is to be initiated un- der the provisions of act No. 1856 of the general assembly of 1915, ap- proved March 199, 1915. This law provides that whenever 25 per cent of the qualified electors of three or more townships in a body in any county in the state, as shown by the election returns for governor at the preceding election, shall so petition the county court, the court shall make an order for an election at any general or special election to be held in the county, for a vote on the question of restraining horses, mules, asses, cattle, goats, swine and sheep, or any or two or more of the said animals, from running at large with in such townships. The 25 per cent must be secured in each of the town ships proposed to be included in the district.
 If majority of the legal votes at the election are cast for the stock law, the county clerk is required to give notice of the fact by publication in weekly newspaper and by post ing three notices in each of the townships in the county.
