The REAL HOMES

Many people seem to think that an
ideal home must be luxurious place
fitted up with all sorts of conven-
fences and comforts. We have only
to look around at the homes of
wealthy people everywhere to see
that this is not true. Mere things,
luxuries, though they be piled ever
so high, can never make happy sat-
isfying home.
Homes are not dependent on riches
and their beauty does not consist in
bronzes and bric-a-brac. The real
home is place where character is
formed and joined for upward
growth, where comradeship prevails,
where love sways and softens, where
mutual endeavor and sympathy make
any work which calls them forth q
godsend, where peace exalts the
mind and rests the body and refresh
es the spirit Of man or woman of
whatever condition or class. It is
for the building of such homes that
women should be trained.
Men pirate too much about the
lack of bread-raising and floor
sweeping accomplishments of the
modern girl. Good bread and clean
floors do not make houses homes. 1t
is the character back of these capa-
bihties that make z mans home his
castle and his sanctuary.-Ex.

possible. Some hold that if a hei-
fer of dairy bred is allowed to get
fat when young she develops a ten
dency to use her food for body fat
all her life rather than to produce
milk. Others hold that the dairy
qualities of a cow are not influenced
in any way by the method of feed
ing when young and that no harm
comes from heifer being fat. Some
desire to develop the largest ami
mails possible for the breed. Others
prefer cows medium sized or small
for the breed.
There must be some general law or
laws in regard to these points that
can be found by experimental work.
Apparently there are a number OF
questions along this line which can
not be answered definitely as a re-
suit Of common observations or there
would not be this wide difference Of
opinion. Having these facts in mind

BEGINNING TO SEE
NEW LIGHT IN BUSINESS
Many Men Prominent IN Business
Are Losing Enthusiasm For
speeding Up" 1des.

us your horse a good traveller"
asked one man of another who had
stopped him on the highway to
"swap" horses.
"A good traveller? Why, stranger,
l can drive that horse so far in a
day that you couldn't get him back
in three!"
Naturally this ingenious though
not ingenious argument did not ef-
feet a trade. But it is the sort of
argument that in a disguised form
is being used effectively by individu-
ais and people all over the map.
Efficiency" and pep" are the two
most overworked words in the Ian
guage these times. Wherever one
goes he can hear the mental motors
buzzing and the wheels whirring.
Every man is so keyed up and dense
ly charged with his life purpose that
you are almost afraid to shake
hands with him for fear of getting
an electric shock.
But, listen, you fellows not already
because of overwork- fol
the psychopatic hospital, the word
has gone forth that speeding up
has reached it's limit and that it
doesn't pay.
1.-THE inefficiency" of efficiency
has proved both costly and brutal'
says man, who has been lifelong
student of busy men. "A man
should be his best up to seventy. If
a man disappears at fifty-ave he is
inefficient, no matter what he has
done before that time-inefficient
because he has thrown away the ripe
fruit of all his life."
Don't drive yourself 80 far in q
day that you cannot get back in
three-or perhaps ever. A good share
of the world believes that the ineffi.
cheney of certain European nation
was the cause Of setting itself and
its whole civilization back half 8
century. Remember the story of the
clever little boy who stole the party
ice cream and ate it all himself and
died the next day?

the pearl chain of all virtue.

FORMER CONWAY MEN
 LEADING LIQUOR MOVE
Ben L. Griffin and B. F. Witt Man. aging Campaign to Initiate Re- peal of Statewide Act.

Two former Conway men, Ben L. Griffin, ex-secretary of the Arkansas Farmers Union, and B. F. Witt, un- til recently connected with whole sale liquor house in Little Rock, are managing campaign for the initia- tion of bill to repeal the statewide prohibition act, according to the Ar kansas Democrat of Wednesday For several days past, it is reported initiative petitions have been in cir culation, but so quietly has the work been done that the movement has just now become public. To what extent signatures have been secured is even yet unknown. It will require about 13,5OO names, or eight per cent ot the vote cast for governor in 1914, to initiate the bill, and the petitions must be filed more than four months before the date of the next general election, which occurs November 2.
 This means the petitions must be filed with the secretary of state not later than July 6.
 News of the circulation of the
 'anti" petition is said to have caused much surprise among the prohibi- tionists, who had been led to believe from announcements by the liquor interests that no attempt would be made to repeal the present law. Should these favoring repeal secure sufficient number of names to ini- tiate bill hot fight on the measure is certain to be waged.
 The proposed bill, it is announced makes more stringent the conditions under which liquor may be sold than the old laws. It is provided that special election must be called and held on the question and a major ity vote obtained before license can be issued. Saloons would be permit ted only in incorporated towns and cities of 800 or more population and only one could be licensed for each
 1000 inhabitants. The hours during which liquor could be sold are re- strloted to 5 o'clock a. m. to 10 D. m. MT. Griffin, while member of the
 house from Pulaski county in the 1915 legislature, achieved distinction by filibustering against the final pas
 sage of the present Newberry act for several hours until licenses could be
 issued to 40 or more Little Rock
 saloons under the old Going act
 which the Newberry bill superseded | By this means Little Rock had sa.
 looms throughout the year 1915, ol
 until the licenses issued under the
 Going act expired.

TELLS HOW TO BUILD
 BIGGER, BETTER CONWAY
Patronize Home Merchants and Home Industries, Andrew J.
 Oliver Urges.
Editor Log Cabin Democrat:

Editor Log Cabin Democrat:
 If you will only publish a few short lines, l will try to give few suggestions as to how to build a bigger, better Conway. How are we to build a bigger, better Conway ? This brings on the finance question. The way to solve this is to spend your money in Conway. You make your money in Conway, why not spend your money in Conway. The factory industry of Conway is small from only one reason. That is non support by Conway citizens. When you go to by an article, if you have a factory or plant that puts out this goods, demand Conway made goods of your dealer. If he does not spend his money in Conway he is not capable of having Conway trade. Always demand Conway made goods of your dealer.
 have visited Conway few times in the past six months, with one pur- pose, studying Conway, Conway peo- pie and their ways. l have been here only six months and live 10 milest east of the city. 1 have taken ings of Conway. Now l call your attention to the laundry industry Each day you will notice wagon on the streets which bears the name of the Little Rock Steam Laundry, doing big business. Each Conway lady patronizes this laundry. Now, a few days past you saw notice in this paper like this, "receiver asked for Frakln Laundry" Why? Who put this notice in the paper? Ans wer: Conway citizens. How? By patronizing businesses other than Conway. How do you expect to have an industry if you do not patronize it?
 In the papers you will read items like this: Mrs. A. is shopping today in Little Rock" Is there not silks and satins in Conway fine enough for the finest of the people?
 NlIn the many nandSOme stores or your city, you will pay your railroad fare to the city, about $2, to buy a $l.9S article because you could make a saving of two cents on the article.
 Last week you had a show in your city under tent. This show carried something like $l 1000 from your city. Stop, ask yourself the question where has this money gone? Gone never to return. It has not gone tc

SOUVENIR BOOK
 MEETING FAVOR

That the plan announced several days ago by the Log Cabin Democrat for issuing souvenir booklet setting forth the resources of Conway and Faulkner county is meeting with pop ular favor is shown by the liberal manner in which Conway business men are subscribing to the project. Almost without single exception every one approached has cheerfully and readily contributed to the publi- cation and it's success is now assured. Sufficient subscriptions have already been made to guarantee that more
 than 2,OO0 copies, the minimum
 number promised to be published can be printed and that the book will probably exceed 32 pages, the mini
 mum size anticipated. It is hoped to raise a sufficient amount to pub fish 5000 or more copies of a book of at least 48 pages, and the present indications are that this will be ac- complished.
 A number of special articles on the various phases of Conway and Faulkner county have already been promised by prominent local people, Care will be taken to secure accuracy and avoid exaggeration throughout the book, it being intended as a pam phlet which will faithfully depict the advantages, resources and possibili- ties of the city and county to the prospective homeseeker or investor and yet make no assertions that will prove disappointing upon closer in vestigation. Faulkner county and the city of Conway are good enough without being overdrawn and they need only to have their advantages properly and truthfully set forth to bring to them large number of the most desirable citizens.
 The Look will be published early next month and will be distributed through the best and most effective channels, a large number being re- taned for future needs. G. s. Mey- CTS, who is soliciting for and compil- ing the pamphlet, expects to complete his work within the next few days after which the work of printing will be started.

help educate your children. Not to build a bigger, better Conway. Now, how much of this money made by this show was actually spent in Con- way? On the other hand you havs two large and up-to-date movffg( picture shows. These shows are operated by Conway citizens, who in return spend their money in Conway, and are always striving for the bet torment of Conway. So by patron lzlng these industries you are help ing to build a better and bigger Con- way.
 How do you expect to have large business houses, sky scraper build ings and handsome fixtures, if you do not help to build them?
 A couple of industries I call close attention to, which is natural for me, as l have spent the last eight years of my life studying. That is the candy and ice cream business, of which Conway has both.
 You will meet the train at the sta tlon each morning. You will see from one to 10 cans of cream set off there, billed to local fountains at Conway. Each can bears the name Little Rock" in big letters. This represents cream made in Little Rock, and they are so glad they have the Conway people going they print taeir name in big letters on each can. Then you and your lady friend or wife and family will go to the foun- tain and order your ice cream and never ask the white jacket if he serves Conway made ice cream.
 Always demand Conway made goods and you will always help build a bigger, better Conway, better schools, better churches and above all better place to be called home. If you are of Conway and for Con- way, be Conway, act Conway, boost Conway, and above all, spend your money in Conway and demand Con- way goods. This helps to build a bigger, better Conway. am, sin cerely, a new friend to all,

COUNTY Y. NJ. c. A. MEETING

The annual County Y. M. c. A.
committee meeting was held in the di-
rectors' room of the First State Bank
of Alma at 2:30 Sunday afternoon.
Good interest was shown by those
present and satisfaction expressed in
the work accomplished during the last
year
The outlook for this years work is
good and many more boys will be
reached in the various branches of the
work than last year
Last year twelve groups were or
ganized, ten of which did good work
This year we hope to have at least
- good groups.
With the interest of the boys have
taken in agricultural club work it will
lie easy to double the number next
spring. Some have all ready signed
up The boys who attended the high
school conference and rural leaders
conference at the state boys camp
,Hayo- Went Hal came back enthusi-
astic over it and will help interest a
much larger number next year.
The state boys conference being at
Lansing this year it is hoped to have
enough delegates from Gratiot county
10 fill a special car.
The question of having a county
camp for the boys was favorbaly COM
niented on. The present officers were
all reelected namely: DR.. NJ. G..
Skinner, chairman; II. c. Moore, vice
chairman, and Carl II. Washburn,
secretary treasurer. Blaine Curtiss
was hired as secretary for the coming
year at an increase in salary.
The financial condition of the or
eanization is good, and the committee
teel that the work is well started.
We hope with the help of our financial
supporters, volunteer leaders and the
guidance of God to help during the
coming year, many a Gratiot, county
boy may become nearer like the boy
God would have him be.
