The value of using the Sunday newspaper for listing the offerings oi the week. as well as for creating shop ping Monday. has been recognized everywhere, and is now being adopted universally.
 For some time the moving picture houses Of this city haee recognized the value of listing their weeks offer ings Sunday morning that the patrons may take survey of the field ahead.

 Merchants of Hot Springs are awak- ening to the value of advertising along sane and legitimate lines. They have felt the response of carefully planned advertising. They know that the shoppers interest can be enlisted within the shoppers home rather than waiting in store for a casual call
 They know, too, that if Is not the sum of space that counts, but that fl is how that space is utilized, and where 1t is used: that character must be reflected in the advertising; that individuality must be shown; that simple facts plainly stated are the hest; and that when offerings are thus put before the people, the re- sponse is assured.

DIVIDING THE SUPREME COURT

In increasing the supreme court to a body of seven members, and diyid- ing it into two working branches, will keep up the work, then the movement 10 have this done will meet with pub lie favor. Our supreme court, unfor tunately, has to pass on almost every case tried in the lower courts.
 You seldom read anywhere in the state of a conviction being rendered or big judgement being passed on ia the lower courts, but what there is a note that an appeal will be taken.
 Sometimes it makes the people won der if the lower courts are really worth the price, since everything oi importance is taken along past their yerdicts.
