Zent tNeighborhood
Zent, Ark. July 26, 1916 Dear ARGUS:

LcnJ, AFk., July ~, 1OAo Dear ARGUS:
 Someone said the other day they hoped to read a letter in the ARGUS from Zent every week and I feel it encumbent on myself to write one this week but I feel as little capable as the small boy who, when the teacher asks him to write a letter, sits with his pencil in the corner of his mouth, Please teacher, can't write no letter, I don't know nuthin to write about" and straightway begins Dear Teacher I seat myself to write you a few lines" etc.
 told you sometime ago we found a silver lining to every cloud and now we have had two fine rains. Our crops are nod ding and smiling to us each day saying, See we are fulfilling our promise of early spring, so you must hurry to get out your harvesting tools, clean them up, oil and make ready for the boun- tiful harvest that awaits those who have toiled energetically and intelligently during the past season.
 Leslie Gaddy is quite busy this week collecting bones, brass. etc. He is bright energetic boy ard who knows but what some day the people of Zent will point to him high up in the business world and say, He belongs to us and we are proud of him. ;"
 We have a number of boys ano girls out here who aspire to big things and especially worthy o1 mention is Miss Margy Schmidt daughter of MT. and Mrs. Gus Schmidt. She stands high 1T her classes, is real help to hel parents. and her aspirations ar' very high indeed. We predic that some day she will be ; shining light among the ables teachers of our county.

 mamma, you wouldn't know Zent now. MT. Clifton has built him a new cottage, MT. Arthur Anderson has made their store look so nice inside and Mrs. Gaddy is walking around with the prettiest baby you ever saw" The pretty baby makes me think of what 1 read in the Ladies Home Journal the other day and 1 pass it along to our farmer parents. We have learned that a girl grows grace full when she is happy, and a boy sweet tempered; that it is bad for growing thing to be unhappy, in school. in play, at home bad for their mental development. We have found that praise has high educative value, and that pride is necessary to growth. ( l Mrs. Sutton has gone to 1 Virginia to be present at their family reunlon and to spend 2 about six weeks with her parents. The Suttons are another ! family who try to make our community better and brighter.
 Mrs. Alex Simpson is prepar- ing to take a trip to Hot Springs and Mir. Simpson who is farming "Glen Echo" has a good crop which speaks well for his hustling activity, but in all my rounds 1 believe Charlie Watson. a colored man near Fargo, has the finest cotton.

Bankhead Good Road Act
 Should Imr0ve Arkansas

Little Rock, July 19-The sign. ing of the Bankhead good road act by President Wilson will mean high things for Good Roads in Arkansas if Arkansas will take advantage of it's provisions for securing federal aid.
 During the next five years the state should receive a total of $1. 272,75O out of the grand total $75,000,00O approriated by the act for the encouragement of road building in the various states.
 The amount to be received an nually are as follows: 1917, for the year ending July 1 $84,S5O; 1918, S,6S, 700; 1919, $254,550; 1920, $339,40o: 1921, $424,25O
 1t is provided, however, that each year the states must pro- vide an equal amount to be used on the roads, else the federal aid will not be available. Just how this can be done is a system that must be worked out State High way Commissioner Owen is deep ly interested in the possibilities of the scheme, and is devoting considerable study to it. He will call into consultation county judges and road builders from all over the states to consult upon what plan can be submitted to the Legislature to secure for the state the advantage of this large amount of money.

friend, who rode with me a great deal thro' the mountains of Southwest Arkansas, and when we met, as we often did, a young girl of rare charm and intelligence, she would exclaim. Full many a flower was born to blush unseen and waste its sweetness on the desert air, " and looking at it from her point of view I thought those charms were wasted there in those back woods but since the frost has touched my locks and life has taught me so many beautiful things know that that sweet ness was not wasted, that hu- manity is everywhere, whether it be in the desert, the back woods, mountains or the crowd ed halls of learning, needs and is calling for the sweetness of life. And we farmer folk need just as much of it as anybody on earth.
 Mrs. w. w. Owen is enjoying her fine new mahogany piano, which her husband purchased for her on his recent trip up north. He intended to keep the purchase a secret from her un- til it arrived but man like he told in two hours after he reach ed home. Now if that had been a-woman it would have been no temptation to keep still about it but men are so different, you see.
 The Ladies Aid. of Hunter, met with Mrs. R. A. Owen last Wednesday. It is needless to say they had a good meeting and a very, very pleasant time for it is a well known fact that guests always take away pleasant mem ories from this lovely home that is rendered so delightful by the
 musical accomplishments of Mrs, Owen on the piano and her son, Burdette, on the violin.
 R. s. Nelson made business trip to Brinkley Wednesday. He is another farmer out here wht has a fine. clean. well-cultivatee

Freak insurance is not at all gn- common with Lloyd, but what is con sidered as one of the most curious policies ever written by that agency was one covering a bishop, II priests and IT nuns who were bound from London to Perth in western Australia.

ASuOUlSIl ll0S UCCu ACIlOVCO from all the premises in the city of Brinkley, and the people on the north side of the railroad and the people on the south side of the railroad show conclusively by their actions that they are desirous of making the city as attractive as possible, making an individual effort to have their in- dividual premises cleared of noxious weeds and other things that would make those premises unattractive and cause unfavor- able mention. We have every reason to believe that the clean up spirit not only exists today, but will grow upon the entire citizenship of our little city.
 Those of our city who love the beautiful intend to see that the public park on both sides of the railroad is kept in good condition. and will be permently beautifed, and we have been informed that the ladies on the north side and those on the south side of the railroad will enter intoa friend ly contest to see which side of Brinkley will be kept cleaner and made more attractive: and the sooner the ladies of the city meet and reorganize the civic league for this purpose, if for no other the better will the people of the entire city be pleased.
 We are glad to note that the expenses of feeding the prison. CTS last month was not one cent. because the criminal element, what few there were in Brink. ley, has sought other grounds, and we promise that they will not meet such encouragement ir Brinkley as will cause them te return. On the other hand, there is quite a number of i'm. provements being made. and other improvements are contem. plated for the near future. am glad to inform the public that Judge Trice has promised to let the contract for building the bridges necessary to oper the road from Brinkley to Brass field. That is one of the most important steps that has evel been taken in Monroe county
 When that bridge is completed la detour of 15 or 20 miles vii not have to be made to enable people travelling in automobiles to reach De Valls Bluff, Lonoke Little Rock. or any other poin' on the west side of Cache Rivel from a point on the east side ol Cache River. The writer indi
 vidually requested Judge Trice tt let contract for the construction of these bridges on a gold basis That is, not on the basis of de preciated scrip. but for one hun dred cents on the dollar. and wt promised that the people o1 Brinkley and the surrounding country would take up all thi'

Mayor CreenIee Writes On Better Things
 Ahead For Brink|ey And Monroe County

the work, because we know that lit will net only open up mag nificent territory west of this city, but will also enable us to have a road for nine months in the year; and when the govern ment aid is obtained by various communities for the construc- tion of roads, we are impressed with the idea that we will get our part for the finishing of the road across Cache River bottom to Brassfield.
 There is another enterprise on foot, and the writer has some- thing to do herewith. We have succeeded in obtaining funds for prospecting for oil and gas in Monroe county. provided owners of land are willing to do the same as the owners of land in all other communities where companies have prospected for oil or gas have done. and that is to execute leases so that those who are expending their money lin prospecting will get a return therefor in the event either gas Tor oil is discovered. No commu- nifty can have prospecting done without executing these leases. Since we have made two or three efforts to have prospecting done, and have failed because two or three land owners would refuse to sign leases. the com pany that we have in view will mot seek any lease but have told the writer that he would ob- tain the leases by offering as a consideration 12H percent of all oil or gas that may be discovered, they will send their experts into the community and if these ex- perts are sufficiently encouraged from the prospects. they will begin within a short time to put down a test we'll. This was the very best we could do, and have promised to make an effort again to procure leases on thirty thousand acres of land, and when that is done 1 will notify the company and they will have their experts here within a few days to make a view of the prop erty to learn if the indications for success are sufficient to justi. fy their making the vast expen' diture of money they will make. l If oil or gas be discovered here, the owners of land know what effect it will have on their prop erty. The very fact that we have an opportunity now to as
 certain whether or not we have these valuable products under our soil should encourage every man who has the good of tht community at heart. Every in
 dication points to the fact thai the eyes of investors are direct ed to Arkansas. and especially to the eastern portion thereof and with the finest prospects fol a monied crop that we have evel 1 had at this season of the year | it is no wonder that everyone ap- pears to be cheerful and happy
