BRIDGE MEETING
 NEXT FRIDAY NIGHT
For the Purpose of Bis cussine the Bridge
 Proposition.

On Wednesday (today) J S. Ladd and c. M. Walter, bridge commissioners, met in Searcy for the purpose of signing the con- tract for the building of the bridge across the river at this point.
 They were immediately served with notice that temporary in- junction had been granted in the Chancery Court restraifi lg them from making said contract.
 W. H. Lightle of Searcy and J. s. Smith of Beebe appear as plaintiffs and are represented by Attorneys Eugene Cypert of Searcy and Rhoton, Helms and Bradshaw of Little Rock. Notice was given that defendants must appear and answer the complaint of the plaintiffs within 20 days.
 Now is the time for the people to show what interest they have in this bridge. All must work to- gether tremendously and drop all selfish interests if the bridge IS to be secured.
 A meeting has been called by the commissioners for Friday night, October 6th, at 7:30 p. m., in Beals Hall for the purpose of discussing the bridge proposition and devising ways and means to push this project to a conclusion.
 All are urged to be there.

NEW OFFICERS WILL
 TAKE CHARGE NOV. 30
State Election Board Makes Announce
 ment OfDate.

All county, District and state officers, except the five constitu- tional state officers, elected at the general election November z will take the oath of office November 30, acc ording to a decision reached Saturday at conference held at Little Rock between Secretary of s ate Earle w. Hodges. Governor Hays, and Attorney General Wallace Davis.
 Formerly the new officers as- sumed office Oct. 31. When the consolidat oa of election laws passed, by the l st legislature, moved the date of election up two months. Mir. Hodges ar nounced he would is;ue the con- missions to officers dated Dec. 31 or January 1.
 Last week Mir. Hodges discov- cred that it would be impossible to commission county collectors later than December 1 because Sectron .7042 of Kirby's Digest provides that collectors shall file their bond and have it approved not later than the first Monday in December, or their offices shall be declared vacant. The confer ence of the state election board was then called resulting in a de- cision to have all officers take office November 30.
 The five situtional stateoffi- cers not affected by the decision are the governor, attorney gener- al, secretary of state, state audi tor and state treasurer. The con- tuition provides they shall take office when the legislature meets in January.
 1t is probable several changes in the new election will be sought in the next legislature. Several members have said they will in troduce bills to repeal the law. If the law is not repealed it prob

Business is Business
By Berton Braley

Business is business" but men
 are men,
 Loving and working, dreaming, Polling with pencil or spade or
 pen,
 Roistering, planning, scheming. Business is business, but he's
 a fool
 Whose business has grown to
 smother His faith in men and the golden
 rule,
 His love for friend and brother. Business is business, but life
 is life;
 Though we're all in the game
 to win it, Let's rest sometime from the heat
 and strife And try to be friends a minute. Let's seek to be comrades now
 and then, An l slip from our golden tether; Business is business, but men
 are men, And we're all good pals togeth- CT!

season. the Hunters would forswear
the pleasure of shooting birds" Thut
In the concluding sentence Of strik-
ing little article In which Prof. A. F.

college. points out the val % of birds
to the farmer and makes u plea for
the Intelligent protection of the feath-
cred folk of the air who are mans
most valuable allies against the

IL would be fine thing IL the peo-
pie OF South Carolina were to get to-
gether and resolve to do what Prof.
Conrad suggests. But there Ia little
likelihood OF that despite tho enor-
nous benefits that would result from
the consequent saving OF thousands Of
game birds which. In turn. would save
the farmers hundreds OF thousands of
dollars In a single season by their
work In destroying insects and weeds.
The next best thing. however, can be
done and should be done and that Is
TO observe and to enforce the bird
protective laws, both state and Fed
eral. that now exlst--laws which limit
the periods during which game birds
may be shot and which prohibit the
shooting OF other birds which are OF
no value as game but OF the creates,
value as insect exterminators ard

A much more enlightened sentiment
with regard 10 bird conservation now
prevails among our people than pre-.
vailed here some years ago. The
farmers and many others are awak en-
Ing to the fact that scientists, lilx,

Baker School, Oct 17-Our schoo,

'Ssis'ant Is Miss Beth Herndon of
Ereenville. So far these teachers o..
giving the best of satisfaction Evor,,

DONG good work. There are so fau,
children down in the Rocky R,,,fs

mas decided that they are justified IN

some of the children who used to usa
the wagon are going this, year to Os-

Of these.
II seems now that church is assur-
'eo Tor this neighborhood. After sew
eral years of preaching by various and
sundry ministers Of six or seven DIR.
rerent denominations; it became more
and more difficult to get a preacher
who could come when he promised.
So the people deci4 ia to form q
Presbyterian church. = And a petition
TO the Presbytery to have one DR.
ganized was signed by some thirty Of
the people. The Presbytery sent 4
committee out few weeks ago to
look the field over. At the recent
meeting of Presbytery held in Sumter
this committee recommended the
formation Of church at this point
and after a full discussion It was
unanimously voted to grant the re-
quest OF the petitioners. So sometime
within the next month we shall doubt
less see a Presbyterian church with
about forty members formed at the
Baker School house.
In this connection it is appropriate
10 caii attention to our weekly prayer
meeting which Is attended sometimes
by as many as sixty-five or seventy
peopleI In community numbering
only about one hundred and twenty.

Columbia, Dot. 17.--As O result Of
the fisht the State department. OF
agriculture has been waging against
adulterated seed oats shipped Into
South Carolina the shippers are com
ing to terms and are now cooperating
with E. j. Watson, commissioners, ia
an. effort to divert all adulterated seed
oats from South Carolina and get the
farmers of this State to buy reclean-
ed oats. A shipper from Texas, from
which State most Of the adulterated
seed oats have been coming, writes
Mr.. Watson as follows: "All of these
oats that are not satisfactory in your
State for seed we are sending to
points outside Of yOur State, and we
trust that you will render us whatever
assistance you can In getting this trou-
bic Strengthened out, We are going
to urge all of our customers in your
state to buy nothing but the recleaned
oats, ana we Wish the commissioner In
your State would urge the dealers
there to get recleaned oats, as we ap-
preciate the necessity of farmers
planting nothing but the best grades
Of seeds. =.
Texas this year is full Of Johnson
grass; in fact the oats have more
johnson grass In them this season
than 1 have ever known before. This
resulted in the fact that our oats were
put in the ground late, and the john
son grass and oats ripened, at the
same time. Ordinarily, the oats ripen
little ahead Of the Johnson grass,
and the farmers are able to thresh
their oats practically free of grass
for this reason"
