A Friendly Hand
DANES Whitcomb Riley)

When a man amt got cent, and he's
feeling kind of blue
An the clouds hang dark an heavy an
won't let thre sun shine through,
It's great thing, 0 my brethren, FOR
Teller just to lay
His hand upon your shoulder IN
friendly sort of WY.
1t makes man feel curious, 1t makes
the tear drops start,
And you sort o. feel a flutter in the
region of your heart.
You can't look and meet his eyes; you
can't know what to say,
When his hand is on your shoulder in
friendly sort of way.
Oh, the worlds a curious compound
with its honey and its gall,
With its cares an bitter crosses; but
a good world, after all;
An a good God must have made it
leastways that's what l say,
When hand rests on my shoulder in
a friendly sort O. way

AFTER THE GERMAN VOTE.
(World Review, Boston,

Ii the real mission of Colonel House
is that which has been guessed by the
shrewd observers he will have quite a
job on his hands and will be entitled
to great deal of credit if he succeeds.
1t is said that Colonel House is to
fix things up with the German gov
eminent so that there will be a better
understanding between the United
States and Germany. The idea is that
such an undertaking will have a reflex
action on American voters of German
nativity and parentage who are now
antagonistic toward the administra-
tion
If that is the true mission of the
Texas colonel he has his work cut out
for him.

A series of cartoons running in the
New York Tribune illustrate American
history as it would be interpreted by
the Wilson administration The first
cartoon represented George Washing
ton refusing command of the contn-
entail army because he was too proud
to fight" Other notable historical
events are: Patrick Henry uttering his
defiance to England, Give me liberty
or give me strict accountability
Benjamin Franklin informing George
III that the Declaration of Independ-
ence was for home consumption only;
General Grant writing his memorable
dispatch, Il intend to talk it out on
this line If 1t takes all summer"

NOTICE.

There seems to be some misunder-
 standing on the part of some of the
 men who were nominated for office at
 the Democratic primary which was
 held last March. That was a Demo-
 cratic primary and was held by the Democratic party for the purpose of nominating Democratic candidates. The men who were nominated in
 March were put forward by the Demo-
 cratic party as it's nominees to be voted on in the general election, which will be held on November 7th.
 Every nominee who wants his name placed upon the ticket to be voted on
 at the general election in November should go to the treasurer, pay the | fee, take receipt from the treasurer,
 and then take this receipt to M w. Greeson, who is the chairman of the County Election Board. He will then place the name of the person on the | ticket. Because a man was nominated
 at the primary in March does not
 mean that he is elected; it merely means that he was put forward by the
 Democratic party as its choice to be
 voted on in November.
 Those who have not paid their fee
 to the Treasurer, to have their name
 put on the ticket, should do so imme-
 diately, or else their name will not be
 on the ticket.

 Advance Advertising Car No. 1, of the famous J. H. Eschman World United Shows was in Prescott this week billing the town and surrounding country for Oct. 20, when these neat est of travelling shows will exhibit afternoon and night.
 Lovers of the out of ordinary |amusements are greatly interested in the announcement that this wonder full attraction is coming for it is decidedly the best tented amusement enterprise en route.

 The menagerie containing as it does the finest living specimens of rare, strange and curious animals is really a whole show in itself Prominent in this wonderful collection is the small est elephant entour.

PIONEER CITIZEN OF PRES
 corr WILL VISIT CITY

Samuel A. Reppy, of DeSoto, Mis- souri, writes Col. c. c. Hamby that he will visit Prescott some time the lat ter part of this month. Mir. Reppy was one of the first men to locate in Prescott, was the mayor of the city at one time and wants to meet all of the citizens when he reaches Prescott. His letter follows:
 DeSoto, Mo, Oct. ', 1916. Hon. C. C. Hamby,
 Prescott, Ark.
 Dear Sir:
 Nothing happening, will be in Prescott Oct. 22, 1916, and would be pleased to meet all the Sunday school scholars of Prescott, at night in mass meeting, in order that 1 might say something to them as we'll as to other folks, about conditions that exist, etc. Tell Thos. C. McRae, Hatley, Bryant and others and all the teachers that I will be there-that am the man who organized the first Sunday School that was organized in Prescott, on Sunday, March 22, 1874, and afterwards when Brad Scott procured church bell for the Methodist (the Southern Metho- dist church, l was accorded the honor of ringing out the first chimes that ever waited over beautiful Prairie, DeAnn-which I was informed by my learned friend, Rufus K. Garland, meant Turkey Prairie" I have no doubt but what you now have many persons in Prescott who never saw a wild turkey. I arrived in Prescott on January 21, 1874, and only few days thereafter Benjamin Phillips killed two deer about where Dr. Powers house was afterward built, and killed two fox squirrels out just north of where Ansley's school building was erected afterward.
 want to meet as many oldtimers as l can, as doubtless this will be our last meeting in the flesh-and, unless We keep in the straight and narrow path to the end, there will not likely be much pleasure in any future meet ing we may have.
 Write me at once think l will be in Prescott on the 20th inst. l want to meet the mayor and city fathers. I am sure we will have a grand time. You might tell the news paper man and this might be the means of some one coming in town while I am there that would not know it. I am going to make a historic matter out of this visit along with matters here, etc, etc
 Yours very truly,
 SAM'L A. REPPY.

THEY MIGHT BOYCOTT 1T

The prisoners at the penitentiary have asked the
board of control to meet delegation from the prisoners
to discuss the management of the prison 1t is happy
thought for surely the prisoners know of the hard
ships of the place than the officers Who is better
qualified to pass upon the management of the institution
than those who have made life study of it or are doing
$50? 1t is well enough for the board to hear any COM
plants the prisoners may have to make humanity de-
mands that but in the management of the prison there
should be some outside of it capable of handling the job
without consulting those inside No doubt the prisoners
find many things they would like to change for their
work is conning" but they should remember the place
was not originally intended resort or pleas
ure palace although many of social workers seem to
labor under that impression If they do not like the
board and lodging dissatisfied with the service
the best thing they do is hereafter avoid the place
and refuse to patronze it in any FORM
Of course, if regular boarders at the penitenary
should refuse to commit nfractOnS of the law in order
to keep out of the institution in the future because they
dislike the way it is conducted it would work radical
change in many things outside the penitentiary For
instance supply of reformed convcts who make such
successful revvasts and temperance lecturers would be
cut off, and many professional social upft reormers
might have to go work in order to living Quite
likely there other and far-reaching effects which
would follow the refusal of crooks and thugs to do things
that would land them in penitentiary where the en-
pOyes not attentive to their every want and there
lack of private baths in connection with the frstclass
cells. Possibly the prison board might find it possible
to engage the services of experienced hotel manager
who would better understand the art of catering to the
wants Of particular guests than the ordinary supern
tendent too frequently selected accustomed to
dealing with criminals.
The board in considering the petition of the lady and
gentlemen convics, should get entirely away from the
idea that the penentlary place of punishment and
remember that it is only the laWabidng citizen who is
considered by the onghaired prison reformers
The taxpayers who are paying the bills for the enter
tainment of this choice assortment of law-breakers
might consider their petition from different anglebut
nobody except the tax collector thinks of them
anyway.
