Mason'ss Who Signed tho Whiskey Petition "In
 Bad"

Some several years ago the Grand Lodge of Masons issued an edict forbidding members of that fraternity from signing a petition for saloon license, vot- ing for saloon license or in any way aiding the liquor traffic. In other words if you want to line up with the whiskey side they say that you are not fit to be con- nected with the Masons and that a subordinate lodge MUST expell such members.
 Down at Texarkana the news paper report is, that there are about a dozen Masons who sign ed the recent whiskey petition asking the repeal of the present prohibition laws, similar to the Monroe county or Brinkley petition, and they are to be brought to trial.
 It is reported that there are a few Masons in Brinkley whose name were on the petition here.

Trading at Home

Little Rock, Aug. 21 Speak ing of the "buy at home" move ment, a prominent visitor to Little Rock said: Tt is fine thing in theory, and the city and country newspapers are doing everything they possibly can to foster it. It is a pity that they are not receiving the co-opera- tion they should from dealers and merchants, that is in the matter of prices. Take my case, for instance: Recently l had occasion to buy a couple of electric fans. The price quoted in my home town was $1l. .OO, more than the price quoted me in the open market at Texarkana, and of course I did what anyone else would have done, sent to Texarkana for the fans. The sentiment involved in this question should be evenly dis tributed,"
