 Biographical.
 Frank White was the son of lIr. and Mrs. \. !. White. and was born in Faulkner County, this state. August ?. 1S77. While in his infancy he moved with his parents to Elm Springs. About tile year 1ss6 the family came to Springdale. and with the exeep= ton of two years spent in Gran berry, Texas. this has since been taeir home. While in Granber- " attending Methodist college Frank made a profession of re- lieion. and united with the N. F. Church. south, of which organ5- zation he was member at the time of his death.
 On August 9. 1s99Ideeeasad Was united in marriage to M fsS Lula HaWn at the home of the bride in Paris. Texas. They went immediately 10 Monett. Mo-. where they resided for six or seven years. coming from there to Springdale. which las since been their home. Deceased is survived by widow and two children. a daagilter, Francis. aged 13 years, and son. David. aged six years; his father and a sister. Mrs. Kate Brogdon, wife Of ;. B. Brogdon.
 Ar. White had been in the rail- way mail service for some eight cen years. Us run most of thaf time being from Nonett. Mo, to Paris. Texas. His duties naces- sarily kept hiln away from home a greater portion of the time. and l
 his coming was always eagerly awaited hy the wife and children and little David always met his father. either at the station or at Isome point on the road home He was unseltish in his devotion te Ifhe welfare and happiness of his family. and his first thought was always of them. That lie did no IliFe for himself alone was force fully demonstrated when he so heroicallH sacrificed lis own life i in a vain effort to save the life Of his daughter 's cherished friend IL had n-1er learned to swim Ion account af the fact that ~ l ~ time h. went in the water i5p WAS seized with ermmp. Know ing the> facts. those friends who know Frank=bsf. feel perfectly >re that be realized vlen he .want into the water that he WAS offering the greatest sacrifice that che can make-hiS own life.
 In his intercourse with his tel- loWmen. deceased was modest and retiring 10 an unusual degree. He was d strong man Intellectually, but he never made a display of niS abilities. and only those who were intimately acquainted with Jim Were aware of the finer qualities of his nature. He had the reputation among his asso- eiates and his saperiors ot being one of the most efficient mail clerks in this division. and he had the esteem and respect of al. from the superintendent down The work of the writer for the past two years has brought him in direct touch with the work of Mr. White, and we speak advised ly when We speak of his profie- iency. In all of his conversations during that time We never heard him say an unkind word concern ing a single individual in the mail service. On the contrary he apparently always had some good word to say for all.

piece goods annually while our ex-
ports Of automobiles amount to

are now looking to the United
States for manufactured goods and
other products necessary in their
ever day life, and there is no rea-
son why the South should not get
full share of the business if it is
sought in the proper way"
