 in Sixty D a y S

A block of leases consisting of about 11,000 acres has been secured in the vicinity of Ozark by the firm of Jones, Farris X Kandt, of Independence. Kan sas, and according to the state ments of MT. Jones who was here last week, active drilling will begin within sixty days. It is stated that about 5000 acres of this company's leases lie north west of Ozark while some 40OO acres lie northeast, the remain ing leases being scattered about over this portion of the county. A geologist is expected here this week to make the location and owing to the location of the leases 1t is thought that the drilling site will be located with in six miles of Ozark, either northeast or northwest.
 The following is taken from Sundays Fort Smith Times Record:
 The No. 1 well of the Travel CTS Oil X Gas. Co.,, section 29-9- 27. is drilling around 100 feet. McDonough Oil & Gas Co.'S. No. 3, section 27-9-2S, is drilling at 600 feet.

Newcomer Doing Well on 40 Acres
 Franklin Co. Land

Elder J. w. Pruitt, who came to this county last winter with his family and purchased a forty acre tract of land from c. G. Harmon, located some eight miles northeast of Ozark, is making a success of his venture, and when called upon by a rep resentative of The Spectator last week we were shown over his nice fields of alfalfa, corn, oats, patches of potatoes. beans, peas, etc., all in fine condition. Mrs. Pruitt is some gardener too, as evidenced by an inspection of her fine garden filled with cabbage. onions, peas, beets, etc. They expect to set about seven acres to sweet potatoes this season.
 Mir. Pruitt and family came here in January, 1916. from San Antonio, Texas. seeking to re- gain his health, and although he has worked very hard in improv- ing his farm, he states that he feels that he is in much better health than when coming here. One cause of improvement he attributes to the excellent water found in Franklin county. This family has clearly demonstrated what can be done on small scale on the farm in Franklin county.
 Mir. Pruitt is a minister of the Church of God-Septarian and expects to go on a missionary tour over Northern Arkansas and Southern Missouri during July and August.

Lavenue's WAS warm. Food and
music were good. Ir the upholstered
corners of the inner restaurant one
hardly heard the noisy chatter OF the
crowded cafe beyond the front par
tition. The food and sip of wine
steadied lIilda, and the music soothed
her spirit.
She was beginning to feel comfort
chle now with the redoubtable Moran.
Almost always men were more or less
subtly aggressive with her. to so great
an extent that she kept on her guard
with them as a matter of course and
all the time. But this man was not
aggressive at all. 1t piqued her that
he was not. lie drank none of the
wine. but expanding gradually in this
warm atmosphere Of physical WELL
being, became more talkative.
In response TO her shrewd ques-
tions, he told her much about the
boxing busincss-the sort of boys that
are attracted To it, the eXaCting ra-
ture of tho work, relations between
boxers and their managers, ultimate
money rewards. Her quick grasp on
the practical side of 1t appealed to
him; until finally she knew that he
was talking to her as directly and
frankly as he would have talked to q
man. He even voiced his surprise,
saying
II never met & lady before that I
could talk to this way"
"So?" she remarked. smiling little
and looking off AT the violinis,, who
was SO amusingly like well-fed

that now having come to know him

business of boxing Is like, ii would be
interesting to see him In action. "If
he does meet Carpenter. IN make
someone bring me to see it," she de-
cided then and there. THAT is, If I'm
in Paris"
A puzzling element in the situation
was the friendly relationship that
plainly existed between the two fight
ers. Though 1t occurred to her that
their very prominence would natural

top of any profession get lonely" she
reflected "They can't really chum

her own experience how one comes
to admire and even feel a sort of af-

vigorous and aggressive enough to
stir one and bring out ones own
stronger qualities.
