10 CHOOSE PRIMARY OFFICERS SATURDAY co. CENTRAL COMMITTEE
QUESTION OF SEPARATE PRE- CINTS IN CADRON TOWN
 SHIP TO BE DECIDED.

For the purpose of selecting judges, clerks and deputy shertfs to hold the national, state, district, coun- ty and township primary election on March 29, the Faulkner County Dem- ocratic Central Committee will meet at the courthouse in Conway on next Saturday morning, March IS, at 10 o'clock. The call for the meeting was issued by Chairman A. l.. Nichols of Union township and Sec retary J. R. Donnell of Conway on February IS.
 On account of the many diverse in terestS in the various races, much inn portance is attached to the selection of the election officials, and the meet ing will doubtless be we'll attended. The county candidates, however, will probably not be present at the meet ing, as they have a date at Holland at 1 o'clock Saturday afternoon and one at Enola for the preceding day, in the county campaign now on.
 The question of separating the polling places in Cadron township into the legal precincts and wards, about which there has been consider able discussion, will probably come before the Central Committee for de- cision. So far none of the four com- mitteemen of Cadron township have made public any announcement as to what their attitude on the question will be.
 Secretary J. R. Donnell has ar ranged for the printing of the bal lots and poll books and expects to have them ready for distribution to the committeeman here Saturday The ticket will be the most lengthy ever voted in Faulkner county.

PUBLIC SCHOOL NOTES


 Business will be good this year.
 The afternoons seem mighty long now
 The attendance is falling off with the coming of crop time, and the rooms are less crowded We see evi- dences of better work, too.
 Here is story For some years we have had trouble with little fel- low. He was bad; he would not learn. He was on the streets a great deal. Recently he took a turn for the better. He strengthened up in many ways. He began to work. We investigated and learned the secret. Papa and mama had taken him in hand. They refined him in and took charge of his evenings They saw to it that he prepared his lessons. They are saving the boy. Get the point?
 We are glad to report Bessie Ted der on the road to recovery.
 The sewing room has splendid mlrror. Now that the girls are cut ting and fitting dresses, they had to | have 1t. The girls are doing fine work Tn there. Come and see TOT yourself Irene Thompson was visitor Tuesday. She is in town to take the | teachers examination. She expects to teach this summer and resume her work with us in the fall. We hope she will, for she is an excellent pupil.
 It may be of interest to our friends to know that in the eighth, ninth, tenth and eleventh grades of the school there are but six pupils who are not professed Christians-two in the eighth grade, three in the ninth, and one in the tenth. The senior class is solid-every member a Chris tian. Of the six mentioned. at least three are deeply concerned, and we expect them to see the light soon.
 The manual training department was opened today. Don't ask us where we got the money to do it with for we won't tell you. But we have class in manual training and the boys mean business, too. If you want to help us and yourself at the same time, get the boys to make your ta- bles, porch swings, flower stands, bird houses, cook tables, etc. They will do the work at a nominal price, and the profits will go to buy material for the department. Messrs. Short and Russell are supervising the work. MT. Short is handy with tools, while Mr. Russell is first-rate carpenter
 Daddy" said little first grader at breakfast last week, it is cheaper to be good than to be bad, isn't it?' Why" asked daddy, laying down his fork in astonishment at the ques- tion "Well,' replied the tot sober ly, when you are good you don't have to pay out money for tobacco and whiskey and such things Dad dy doesn't drink, but the shot went home. Next Sunday he and big brother will join the church "And a | little child shall lead them"

Paper by Mrs. Fleming

The following paper was read by
Mrs. Fleming:
Fourteen hundred and ninety -one
years before Christ the temple in
Jerusalem was to be furnished. AZ
ter Bazaleei received from heaven
the command concerning it and had
been filed with the spirit of God in
wisdom and understanding and in
KNOWLEDGE and in all manner of
workmanship. he summoned the lie
brew women to appear before him.
With fear and trembling these
women assembled at his command
, little knowing what was expected of
them
Were the women Of today SO sum
moned would they ,hrk or feel any
fear OF the commander?
No, they would walk boldly into
his presence and demand of him
what is your will?"
We know we stand as mans equal
today and in many ways his SUI
(, perior. We know our power and we
| know our ability to aid we know
what the women are to the church
and to the community in general and
when we are called upon we respond
with heart and hand to any good,
| honest cause.
When Bazaleel made known to
these Hebrew women his desire and
told them how they could help in
identifying the temple as none other
could do, did not that speak plainly
that he realized the worth of woman
and her ability to do?
Listen to these words
Beneath the deserts rim went down
And from their tent doors---all their
service DONE
! Came forth the Hebrew women
Upon goats skin spread upon the
Bazalccl sat and saw them grouped
on every hand
| And soon as silence fell he spake
| And said: Daughters of Israel,
bring word, pray We, hearken
Gods automatically his pattern
Shall fail in finish, though in order
laid.
Unless We women lift your hands ia
aid
through
AS each her veil about her closer
I'VE are but women; what can WON
en- do?"
And Bazalcel made answer:
Gods tabernacl
Not man of all our tribes
From Judah unto Dan
Can do the things that just yc won
on can
Yours is the very skill for which
call;
So bring your cunnin- needlcwork
ThoIgh sma 3olr gifts may snen,
The lord hath need of all
Oh, Christian women
For the temeles set throughout tn
earth's
Desert lands, do not forget
The sanctuary curtains
Need your broidery yet

FLOAT FOR SMALL BOATS

JUNEAU. Nov. SO.-To the Editor: With regard to a float or wharf for small boats which the city has been looking for, the following sug. gestion might be of some benefit. Why not use Ninth Street, which is already piled for a garbage dump? A few more piles would put this street out to deep water and give excellent facilities for wharf of any description.
 It is only a matter of time when some private individual will grab this frontage, then the city will be begging for space for a float This ground is being rapidly piled by pri- vate individuals and when it pays men of small means to so after the property it surely ought to pay the city to invest a few dollars for the benefit or the public.
 The city ought to go after the water frontage RIGHT NOW. or oth. errwise there will be none to be had.

.The Rattle Crv of Peace. '

No matter whether it is beast, man or nation. if there is no fight. no defense. they are worth less. That is the great story Of "The Battle Cry of Peace" This great spectacle seen at the Orph- cum is one Of the greatest prepar- edness plays ever. It is not a preparedness for war. but prepar- cdness against war. A queer com bination, perhaps some will say, but see it. and you will get the idea. No story, no play could be more forcirully told. punctuated with positive exclamations as this screen version. It is something that every man. woman and child should see. Patriotism is the keynote Of this play, and preparedness is pa triotism. If you don't believe it see "The Battle Cry of Peace. which will be given only tonight and tomorrow night. The special music of the orchestra also en- hances the telling points of the production.

Jacks Chance Was Good, but
 That Was All.

One day Ted Sullivan, old-time manager of ball teams, visited Clin- ton. Iowa. and met fellow named J. F. Brickhouse, who managed the local theatre. J. F. had a ball player on his string whom he rec commended highly
 "We play a game today, Sulli- yan," he said, "and want you to watch my man Jack 0Toole. He has the making of the greatest hit ter in the %orld-greater than Cobb or any of them. Just keep your lamps on o'Toole."
 Sullivan promised and the two men sat in the stands together. The first time up, with men on bases, 0'Toole took three healthies. The second time up he got foul be- fore flaming. and the third time he whiffed again.
 He didn't bat very we'll today" said Brickhouse, but don't you like the way he stands up at the plate?"
 "Well, he struck at the ball." re- piled Sullivan, searching for an ali- bi. q will say one thing for O. Toole, he'd be a great man to send up in pinch with the bases full and only one out. I don't think he'd hit into double play"

He said that two places for the next camp are under consid- eration, but a definite announce ment probably would not be made till later in the week.
