TOM REAVES ASKS YOUR VOTE FOR ALDERMAN.

Four citizens of Pulaski Heights have proposed their names for selection to represent the new Ninth ward in the Lit tie Rock City Council, l.. H. Bradley, J. B. Webster, John P. Streepey and myself. All of these gentlemen are we'll and fla vorably known to the voters, and each has an equal claim for consideration. Whoever is cho- sen will make a creditable al derman ,and the contest resolves itself largely into a contest of personal popularity.
 It will not be possible for me to see and talk with all my friends before the election, and I want to say through The Pu- laskian that l will appreciate it as an honor to be sent as one of the first representatives to the Little Rock council, because l have been active in the annexa- tion movement and have done all that I could to bring the two cities together on terms that were advantageous to Pulaski Heights.
 I have represented the First ward in the Pulaski Heights council, and at times when it was difficult to procure quo rum I have always been at my post. As a member of the Fi- nance Committee and the Com mittee on Streets and Sewers, the two most important committees in the council, I have worked hard to give the people every relief asked for and to make their money go as far as possi- ble.
 In the administration of these affairs I have not confined my activity to matters concerning exclusively my own ward, but 1 have seen that repairs and inn provements were made where needed in every part of Pulaski Heights and have voted with the members of other wards for everything that they have ask ed that it seemed to me the city could give, streets, lights, water,

been instructed by the City Council to continue the negotia- tions with the street railway company and the Mountain Park Land Company for the removal of the fence on the east side of Forest Park, so that Hickory street can be widened.
 There was a watch party" at the Forest Park church last Friday night. Although it was a stormy night, there was a good attendance and an enjoy able evening was spent. At 12 o'clock the old bell rang out on the night air as the bells were ringing in Little Rock.
 At the last meeting of the IV-H Club all the officers were reelected. They are as follows: :: President, Glenn Bricker; vice president, Miss Mary Joe Smart ; secretary, Miss Lucy Stiles ; treasurer, Miss Ruth Beasley banker, J. l.. Waller. The next meeting will be held at the church Sunday at 3:15 D. m. All cordially invited.
 A near-accident occurred here last week, when little Johnnie Opal Rogers, son of MT. and Mrs. John Rogers, set fire to some papers in the parlor of their home. MT. Rogers dis covered the flames only when they had reached a great height and were threatening the walls and ceiling.
 Many friends in Pulaski Heights extend sympathy to Miss Ernestine Schader, princi- pal of the Forest Park school, on the death of her mother, Mrs. Sophie Schader, 72 years old, who passed away at the family residence, 800 Rector street, on New Years day. The deceased was also the mother of former Sheriff Fred Schader.
 H. K. Roberts and family of Dallas, Tex, and Dr. R. l.. Barr, wife and son, Hubert, of Der mott, spent the Christmas holi- days with their father and mother, MT. and Mrs. G. P. Roberts, and sister, Mrs. R. R. Sawyer. In honor of the occa- sion, turkey dinner was enjoyed at the Sawyer home Friday. We understand that Dr. Barr is go- ing to locate on Pulaski Heights.
 The Epworth League of For est Park M. E. church held it's annual election of officers at the church last Sunday night. The new officers are as follows: :: President, A. D. Keeby; first vice president, Miss Margaret Smart; fourth vice president, Mrs. w. c. w. Gum; superinten- dent, Miss Amma Pope; treas urer, J. L. Waller, and Era agent, Melvin Hicks. Three new members were taken in, Dr. and Mrs. R. l.. Barr and H. Barr.

and assure them that they can depend upon me to be as jealous in my efforts for the upbuilding of Pulaski Heights in the future as I have been in the past.
 There is nothing but honor in the office, but with the honor 1 hope to gain the satisfaction of seeing well finished a job that l help to start, and for that req son I ask that you elect me as one of the two aldermen to be elected from the new Ninth ward. Respectfully,
 E. T. REAVES.
The Pulaskian., 1916-01-07

A special election probably will be held as early as the last Tuesday in January to elect two aldermen to serve until the reg ular April election.
 All candidates have agreed to submit their names to the vot- CTS at this election without the formality of nominating pri- mary.
 Any citizen, Republican or Democrat, may vote at this spe- cial election.
 The highest man in the race will be accepted by the Demo cratic Central Committee as the nominee at the regular election in April for the long term, and the second highest man will be the nominee for the short term.
 Two aldermen will be elected from the new Ninth ward as soon as the details of the an- nexation of Pulaski Heights to Little Rock are completed. It is understood that Mayor Taylor will defer the calling of a spe- cial election for this purpose un- til the present administration has had time to wind up the af- fairs of the city of Pulaski Heights. There will be a regu- lar meeting of the Pulaski Heights City Council Monday night, and an adjourned meeting probably will be held few days later. This will enable the busi- ness to be completed before the. end of the week.
 The Little Rock council will meet on Monday following, and it is probable that a special cleo tion will then be ordered, prob ably ten days ahead, for the se- lection of two aldermen.
 For seats in the council from the new ward four prominent candidates have announced, and several others are mentioned.
 It is argued by the friends of Mayor L. H. Bradley that he should be one of the new alder men, in view of the fact that he is in closer touch than anyone else with the city's affairs, and therefore better able to carry to fulfllment the projects that have been started for the i'm provement of the city. MT. Bradley has been one of the warmest advocates of annexa- tion. He has not sought the new honor, but in difference to the many importunities of his friends has consented to become a candidate.

SOX SHOULD BE IN FIRST PLACE
WEDNESDAY NIGHT

BY Mark Shields
Though they have copied six
games out of eight on the home lot,
the White SOX have still failed to
reach first place and the charity en-
gagement with the Athletics is rapid
ly drawing to a close. Two games
today and one tomorrow close this
visit of the MaCks, leaving the SOx
still seven games against the tailend-
ers before the end of the season.
Other teams have as many, or more.
Based on past performances, the
Sox must go east in prst place to
have a shot at the pennant They
have 20 games here on their neT
home stay, but only three of them
are with Comics people; and there
are no other soft spots in the John
son circuit.
Washington comes Thursday. BY
then, no matter what success Boston
has in Detroit, the Hose should be
the leaders. Then they must main
tain their standing against two clubs
that have been difficult customers
all season, for the Red SOx follow
Grifith's clan.
Against these two teams the Sox
will have to play better than against
the Macks. They cannot afford to
run bases in a careless manner
against clubs which can turn the tide
of a game on a lone tally. They
must do everything in expert fashion,
maintaining their high mechanical
gear and vastly improving their
brain pans.
The Sox have the best chance
they have ever had for a pennant.
They possess the punch, the pitching
and the fielding excellence. If they
are beaten out it will be their own
faults.
Happy FeIschr though he receives
fewer press notices than some of his
mates, has been a yluable factor in 4.

The child has changed; 1t IS no long
er the creature that, pointing to an
animal in the field, said, whats
that?" and the regk being, "a cow"
asked "Why?" Tie child is perilous-
ly close to asking whether the AMI
NAL is carnivorous or herbivorous.
That makes coercion very difficult.
But I do not think that the modern
parent desires to coerce as much as
did his forbear. Rather he desires to
develop the child's personality. and In
Its early days this leads to horrld
results, to children being taught to
see the beautiful" or ''being made to
realize the duties of citizen"
We are in for generation made up

OLD JAPANESE STONE IMAGE
Years Ago Found In Jap
Village.

An ancient and ownerless edifice,
standing in village called Shikish-
lima in Shki district, Nara Prefec-
ture, has been found to contain num-
Der of rare artistic treasures In the
shape Of antique Buddhist images
1.-THE discovery Of these rarities, one
Of which Is believed to be the Oldest
Of the kind in Japan" says the Her.
aid Of Asia, SIS due to Mr.. Sekino,
doctor Of engineering; Mr.. Matano,
chief Of the imperial museum at To-
kyo, and Mr. Niino of the Nara Art
gallery. They are Of opinion that the
tottering editice is none other than
a temple called the Seki-iji, which was
built in the Nara period (710-794 A.
d.. The stone image, the central
figure, as it were, of the edifice. rep
resents the Yakushi Buddha, and Is
four feet in height, more than three
feet in breadth and three-tifths to
seven-tenths of foot in thickness.
It was probably made some 2,1OO
years ago, in the era of Hakuho, and
is the oldest stone image in Japan,
says report from a Nichi-Nichi cor
respondent. The head man of the dis
trict is now trying to have it included
among the national treasures. There
are also in the edifice wooden image
Of the JiZo Buddha and several other
figures of antique appearance.

HOW EDITOR COINED WORD
The "Gerrymander" Was Born In
Massachusetts, and Is Credited to
Mai. Benjamin Russell.

It was an early American newspa-
per editor who made the word gerry
mander." He was Maj. Benjamin Rus
sell Of the Massachusetts Centinel,
which he and his partner. Warden.
founded in 1884. He was a fighting
man, and the Centinel was no tame
journal, but whacked bl!thely and cared
not where the chips fell, says the Mer-
genthaler Lines O'Type News.
In 1911 the Massachusetts, legisla-
ture under Governor Gerry made a
neat new division Of districts for con.
gress elections. The most insidi-
Gus and ingenious arrangement Of
districts was the one for the
county Of Essex. With great glee
Russell took a map of the county and
colored the districts to show the
Nervousness of the device.
Gilbert Stuart, the famous painter
saw the map, and suggested that the
apportionment looked like a reptile
He made few marks on 1t with his
pencil and said: There! it's sala'
mander!"
Russell jumped up, laughing. "Sala
mander!" he shouted, looking at the
hideous figure: "Gerrymander"
An engraving of the "gerrymander'
was made and hawked through the
state. Thus was born what probably
is one of the most constantly used OF
all manufactured words.

Let the Public Heal Itself.

AS to the complaining public which
has always complained, which Is still
complaining. it will always, no matter
what happens, assume the attitude of
the physician prescribing for the dis
eases Of others. But it will never
reach beyond the field Of the diagnos-
tician. Whenever it had undertaken
to cure, the remedy has been worse
than the disease itself, and it will al
ways be full and fair answer to say,
physician, heal myself" For the
public IS not only diseased, but it is
eternally injecting the profession
concerning which its loudest com
plants are heard. What we should
strive to be is as good as ourselves
that is to say. as good as our own
ideals! The profession only can cure
itself and it must be in those ways
wrought out by the experience and
learning of the craft Installation
