A. is doing for the pub lie school in Ozark? Do you know that the s. 1. A. has had Miss Garrett's room cleaned and a new coat of alabastine and paint has been applied. and Miss Garrett and her boys and girls are delighted that they have a clean fresh room, and they can study much better. Many other things are needed in the school. Every mother is earnestly re- quested to help in this work. Do not make some other mother do more than her share because you are not doing yours.

tor of a country newspaper has his amateur fire chiefs-friends, acquaintances and other pests who tell him b'gum and b'gosh how to run his paper. And they are always radical. They are willing to take all sorts of chan ces with the editors business, None of their money is invested, none of the responsibility is theirs and none of the risk is theirs that's why they are are always so all-f fired ready to tell the ed- itor what to do. If we had pub lished one tenth of the fool things we have been asked to print we would long ago have been dead, buried, and perhaps forgotten by all except the gink who kept us in his memory by a notch in his gun. The amateur fire chiefs do not understand why we do not follow their advice unques- tionably. They shake their heads pittingly at our incompetence and predict disaster and disease and measles and humps because, since we have to assume all re- responsibilities, we insist on doing our own thinking.

Teddy's fire eater, all right, and ought to have a little war before break fast. each morning, but, giving us our choice, we'll stick by Woodrow Wilson and stay out. Give any fool a chance and he can plunge a nation into war, but the man who can keep a nat ion out of war and give us peace with honor, is a statesman. Such a man is Woodrow Wilson.

Obituary

To the memory of William Joseph Turner. son of MT. and Mrs. Elijah s. Turner of Barnes, Ark, who departed life at his home October 26, 1916.
 William was born in the state of Texas May P. 1897, coming to Arkansas with his parents when but a small boy. At his home school he had obtained sufficient education and Sept IS, 1915, was licened to teach in the public schools of the coun- ty. In June the following year he made a trip to Joplin. Mo-, but soon returned home to his parents, and in July afterwards made another trip to Joplin and there soon took the measles and came home, and on the 22nd day of August following, while at school. took sick which after wards developed into typhoid fever, being confined to his bed for 66 days. He bore his suffering bravely and was conscious till the end. Then closing his eyes in quiet slumber passed away with out a struggle. His remains were laid to rest in the family ceme- tery Friday evening.
 Although he had not joined any church but was true be- lieveri in christianity. and seemed to be prepared to meet his God in peace. William was respected and honest young man and love ed by all who knew him. His word was always good. If he doubted his ability to accomplish he never promised. He was kind hearted and true to his many friends.
 To the bereaved we will say, you have our real heart felt sym- pathy in your sad hours of sorrow and bereavement, and may we all live so as to meet in the morn of the resurrection.
 We have lost our precious friend.
 He has bid us all adieu,
 He has gone to live in heaven,
 And his form is lost to view. Oh. this dear one, how we loved him!
 Oh, how hard to give him upl But an angel came down for him
 And removed him from our flock.

ed to farm owners or prospective farm owners. The loans may run up to 50 per cent of the value of the land used as securi- ty and 20 per cent of the value of the improvements. The loans will be made at a low rate of in- terest not yet determined. but it will be less than 6 per cent. Provision is made for the bor- rover to pay off the debt. inter- est and principal through periods of from five to forty years, at his option.
 The legislation is expected to prove great boon to those sec tions of the country where farm development has been retarded because of high interest rates, and it is predicted that it will tend to make agricultural pros- perity permanent and uniform, stabilize and equalize interest rates, and greatly improve the condition of the farmer.
 The nationwide interest in the provision of the bill is indicated by the fact that more than 1OO,- 900 inquiries have come to the Treasury Department for imfor- nation about it. Secretary Nc Adoo predicts that the banks will be established and ready to make loans early in 1917.

"The Tongues Of Men. y

The Wednesday offering at the
Grand will be "The Tongues Of Men,, y
a sparkling drama Of love versus duty
wherein Constance Collier, the inter-
nationally famous London star, plays
the leading role. Following is a. brief
outline of the story:
In sermon on the evil of the thea
tre the Rev. DR.. Penfeld Sturgis, rec
tor of fashionable st. Martins-in-the
Lane, refers directly to Jane Bartlett
and the grand opera "Zaporah" of
which she is the star. Stung to the
quick she accepts the challenge he
has given and determines to make him
''eat his sermon, word for word
On the strength of the rector's SER
mon the mayor closes the opera, but
the Rev. Dr.. Penfeld having had
chance to study Miss Bartlett at close
range, realizes her bigness. He dis
covers that out Of the goodness Of her
heart she has been quietly educating
number of poor girls, feeding hun
cry composers and lending a kindly
ear to the downhearted.
Repentant, he decides that he owes
her an apology, which he makes in an
open letter to the newspapers. At this
ms congregation rises in arms and to
preserve his dignity the young rector
offers to marry the prima donna. She
accepts, thus having carried out her
threat. At this point the story takes
an unexpected turn; why not see the
play and enjoy it yourself?
