LITTLE.TALKS ON1THRIFT
sntl Four years later he became clerk in
By s. w. STRAUS Ptysidknt Am<y1ean Soasr tSr TAsiN

Four years later he became a clerk in a country store at $8 month.
 Joseph c. Cannon, the former Speaker of the House, also clerked ill a country store where he re- ceived g week. The Presidents son-in-law, William c. McAdoo. was farm laborer, then tunnel digger, and now is a wealthy man and Secretary of the National Treasury. The Secretary of Labor. MT. Wilson was coal digger.
 Given the same instinct of thrift a boy can do today what these men have done. When men tell yo1," says Sir Thomas Upton, "that there are no more chances in tsle world, tell them that they are :n;s- taken. There are thousands of manufactures that are still in an imperfect state, there are millions of acres that are still to be male productive: there are, seemingly, countless achievements yet to :,c undertaken"
 Quite an achievement was tie Save Something" club whicl; a Massachusetts department store conducted last year. Cards were printed with four rows of even numbers. It was originally planned to have the members of the club. all employees of the store deposit two. four. six. eight and ten cents per week. but the plan out grew that and some of the clerks derc:- ited S1.O0. Each card totals S27.s6 and members possessed from pro to three cards. according to tf> amount of money deposited. II e holder of three cards drew al o.,' SS26S when the money was divis!vn at the end of the year, while al; drew at least $2.56.

NEGROES ORGANIZE !, TO AID FARM AGENTS
Dr. H. l.. Jordan Chosen President of Arkansas Negro Farmers
 Association.

With the Intention and purpose of | carrying farm demonstration work among the negro farmers and their 1 families ever farther than the work is carried by the federal demonstra-
 tion agents, yet to work in hearty
 cooperation with the federal authori- | ties, the Arkansas Negro Farmers as sociation was formed yesterday after
 noon at big meeting of negro farm
 CTS, in this city.
 Dr. H. L. Jordan of Pine Bluff was
 elected president; W. NJ. Burkett of
 Gra.t county was elected vice presi- dent: Rev. w. B. Brownlee of Pine Bluff was elected secretary; Robert Morgan of Lincoln county, treasurer;
 and A. B. Crump, of Camden, state organizer.
 There were betkeen 60 and iG negro 1 farmers at the meeting. and the dis cussion was lengthy and thorough. There was clear explanation of the
 purposes of the organization, it be- ing pointed out that the federal au- thorities have not the appropriation | necessary to place a negro farm dem- onstration agent ill each county. TO l reach the negro farmers, their wives and children, in the most remote sec tions, is the principal purpose of the new organization, as stated at the | meeting yesterday, and the farmers
 demonstrated their approval of the
 plan by unanimously placing their
 names on the membership roll. Nearly dozen counties were rep
 resented at the meeting yesterday and it is stated that the work of organlza- ton is to be pushed in each of the counties of the state, that a thorough
 organization may be perfected at the
 earliest possible time.

have not dawned, which we sum up IT. the whole idea of thrift and sav- I ing, then he has not opened his eyes to any adequate conception of ,. huna life.a~We are in this world noSto provide for ourselves alone. bur for others, and that is the basis of economy. So that thrift and economy and everything which ministers to thrift and economy supplies the foundation of national life"
 President Wilson is known as an advocate of thrift. In fact 1t will be found that all successful men have the instinct of thrift in one way or another., ,Manysof the men wfof are serving in. the United States Senate, Congress or the Cabinet. are self-made men. They were poor, but they were thrifty and poverty cannot keep a thrifty man down.

n INE BLUFF O ROGRESS
 ROsPERITY
THE GET TOGETHER SPIRIT.

Factionalism. squabhling and divis- fen of sentiment on matters of public improvement are cankers that eat into ths yitals of pr- gross in many municipalities. Conditions in one such city came to our attention the ether day. And. as was to be ex- rected, ths city was standing stiil.s \
 The go-ahead spirit demands she sst-together spirit. Where the back wa4d-lookers and the forward-losk- CTS are equally divided. there will be little progress. Sometimes the back ward-lookers will be numerically in forior io the progressive element in a community, but-unfortmately in such q case--may possess most Of the wealth. And sc their greater power and influence blocks the way t. needed public improvements.
 We once knew very rich man who was strenuously active Tn opposing a needed public improvement along the streets on which he owned property, b cause, as he said, he didn't expsct 10 live very long and would not De able te enjoy such "extravagance' many years.
 This eran in his will made provis- ion for a fine tombstone over his grave; but the town snickered when they read his obituary in the local papers.
 Public improvements require con- certed action. Of course, there will always be a few kickers, but this should nct develop into heated talk. The manner in which citizens of Pine Fluff supported movements for neces- sary improvements in the past speaks wsel for the future-speaks we'll for tie success of the project to remedy the deplorable conditions that exist a. frequent intervals in the lake bed section.
 There appears to be no difference of opinion among the people of the great need for protecting. life, health asnd property through means to pre- vent the Sverflcw of this section Of the city: 2 section thickly populated by home-owners. There has been some difference of opinion as to the method. but this may safely be left 10 the committee cf fifteen which has magnanim7 undertaken a diff cult duty. With a dsfinite plan, the people will get behind the project and push it to successful coIpleticn. And Pine Bluff will be better off. physi- caily and financially, for the inn provement.
