A MAN WHO KNOWS
To Organized Labor:

10 orSaTlEeu lSapors
Kindly remember after this glorious
day of labor and thereafter never TO
give any patronage to any concern
that keeps open any one night in the
week after 6 o'clock. You ask for
short hours and good pay, why not
boost the Retail Clerks and give TO
them the same; shorten their time.
You can purchase anything during the
week. and Saturday also before 6
o'clock. Any fair-minded concern
ought to close without having their
names placed before the labor un-
ions. Make them all close at 6 p. M.
every day in the week.
OLD RELIABLE SOL.

On February 25, Miss Miller said,
two and half million suffragists
volunteered their services to President
Wilson in event of war. Those who
are called probably will serve with
the Red Cross association, she said.
One of the objects of Miss Miller's
visit to Conway is to form first
aid class under the supervision of the
American Red Cross. Should this be
accomplished, local physician will
be called upon to lecture on first aid
one night week.
Miss Miller also proposes to organ
ize thrift committee here, whose
slogan will be Every Home With a
Garden" The present scarcity of
food, she points out, should be an in
ducemcnt to the women of Conway to
become affiliated with the movement.
Every woman in Conway is invited

ternoon at the courthouse at 3 o'clock.

WOMEN ARE CALLED TO

Miss Josephine Miller of Little Rock,
Well Known Social Worker, to
Appear Here Tomorrow.

Miss Josephine Miller of Little
Rock, national suffrage organizer,
will meet the women of Conway and
Faulkner county who are interested
in woman's suffrage, the Red Cross
organization and the thrift movement,
at the courthouse at o'clocl, tomor-
row afternoon. Miss Miller spent a
year and half at the front in
France, returning to Little Rock to
take up the work of promoting wom-
ans suffrage, organizing Red Cross
associations and assisting in the thrift
movement.
Miss Miller said this afternoon she
hopes to stimulate more interest in
the suffrage for women in Faulkner
county, inducing as many as possible
to pay poll taxes to become eligible
to vote. The national organization,
she said, is planning to secure full
suffrage for women, ana unless more

DELEGATES TO Be
NAMED TOMORROW

County and district delegates to the
constitutional convention to be held
in Little Rock on November 10, will
be nominated tomorrow. The general
election will be held June 81. The
polls will open at 8 a. M, closing at
8. Indications point to light vote
in Faulkner county, due to the fact
that in She district contest there is no
opposition, there being two delegates
to select and only two names appear
upon the ticket, Joseph w. House of
Little Rock and Oscar H. Wilson of
Russellville. In the rural districts
the farmers are considerably behind
with their work, and if the day is IA
vorable, it is believed most of them
will be unwilling to leave their fields
to go to the polls. DR.. J. H. Reynolds
and Attorney J. H. Dunn are candi-
dates for a seat in the convention as
delegates from Faulkner. county. Only
one is to be chosen.

WHY UNDER 80?

1t is hard to conceive the reason for the
difference of opinions expressed in Congress
in regard to the age limit for military
service. The only test to be applied to
the soldier is that of physical and mental
fitness. There can be no question that men
from 80 to 40 years possess both qualities IN
q higher degree than men from Il to ~
Then there can be no sound reason tor
forcing the young men to do the fighting.
Of course consideration should be gwen
to the men with dependents, but the ques-
tion of age should not be the sole test.
War is a cold practical proposition, and
it is certain that the young men are greater
asset to the nation than are the old men.
If farmer was called upon to sacrifice
part of his work stock he would not hesit-
ate to select the oldest.
The same reason will apply in furnish
ing cannon food. There must be some
motive behind the position of our representa-
tives in Congress in making 80 years the
maximum age limit. We are afraid that
the motive will not bear the light Of day?

STARVATION THE SOLUTION

The engagements on the front IN Bel
quinn and France have continued during the
past week without any materla! gains Tor
either of the belligerants. The allies appear
to have gained some conquered territory, but
on the whole the intense battles fought IN
taking and holding the lines makes it doubt
ful if the losses were worth the effort. The
victories gained have been so small in COM
parison to the total number Of men involved
that the results must be considered as mega
tive
The conviction is growing that the final
conclusion Of the war will never be reached
through the force of arms, but that it will
depend on the food supply.
The enormous falling off in production
of food crops, coupled with the heavy des-
truction of supplies destroyed in course of
shipment is bound to be felt within the next
twelve months. 1t is not improbable that
the pangs of hunger will in tine force a
cessation of the war and that distress
will reach the allies and their foes alike.
That the men will, through starvation, be
forced from the trenches and will lay aside
the rifle for the pillow. In fact the conditions
now point to the possibility that the war
riors may be forced to avocationS of peace
before the conclusive battle is reached
The prospects for decisive battle of
arms are still distant, but the prospects Of
famine loom clearly in the near future.
We can fight without powder, but when
the bread gives out there is bound to be
peace Itnow seems that hunger will con-
quer the martial spirit.
The only thing to be considered is will
it reach Germany and Allies at the same
time, or whether it will reach one or the
eether first?
