SELL SURPLUS FOODS
 AT MARKET PRICES
Mrs. EernIlnrdt and Dr. Welgart Say some Persons Believe Government
 Vculd Commander FOOdstufis.

"A number of persons in Desha county arc la5oring under the impress sion that the government will com mandCer all their surplus foOdstuffs," said Mrs. Jack Bernhardt. president ot the Pine Bluff district of federated clubs, who recently returned from a visit to that county.
 Dr. S. P Weigart of Little Rcck. district agent of the United States department of agriculture, who was here to deliver an address to the far mers of Jefferson county. said that he heard similar expressions in other parts of the state.
 Both Mrs. Bernhardt and Dr. Wei gart said it would be a difficult mat ter to convince them to the contrary. but they really did not believe that the opinion prevailed among suffi- cIcnt number of persons to affect the amount of foodstuffs that would be placed on ttc market. At the same time, they stated. there is a proha bill ity that tho same opinion prevails among certain people in other states.
 In any event. beth have done all they could to correct the erroneous impression. They asked their friends to do what they could to correct the people who indulged the opipion, and assure them that the government wants them to sell their surplus food Stu.fs at market prices.

Be Careful in Using
 Soap on Your Hair

Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which is very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle.
 , The best thing to use is just plain mul- sifed cocoanut oil, for it is pure and entirely ,greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats the most expensive soaps or any, thing else all, to pieces. You can get thissat any drug store, and few ounces will last the whole family for months.
 Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it.in, aboutaa teaspoonful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy father, cleanses thor oughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, .and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy. wavy, and easy to handle. Besides, .it;loosens and takes out every particle of dust. dirt and dandru&.

 ARMY ORGANIZATION
War Department Considers Plan to Re- duce Present Size of Large Units,
 Recommended by Pershing.

Washington, Aug. 9.-Reductlon of the strength of American army dlvls.. ions to the European army standard oi 19,0 ,00O men and revival of the old army corps major tactical unit was recom- mended by Major General Pershlng, after a careful study of conditions at the front. American army officers are convinced that sound military reasons induced the French and British war ot- fees to adopt this tactical formation for trench warfare.
 Reductions of the divisions means 9 big job for the war department. Much administrative work already completed probably will have to be done over again. General Pershings recommendation are positive. how ever, and the departments attituda IS the same as it was toward General Funston during the Mexican trouble. The wishes of the men on the ground, on whom rests the responsibility for actual operations, will be met as lar as is practicable. One effect of the reduction of both brigades and divls-- ions will be to crcat many additional vacancies in the grades of major and brigadier general.

Boy Scouts Busy.

| ~ - n,
At meeting Of the Boy Scouts
Thursday night, two new mem
bers were voted in, making the
total number in good standing
thirty-two. This number is all
that can be. enrolled in one troop
under one Scout-master. There
were twenty-seven scouts pres
ent, showing that they are all in
terested in their meetings. If
there are any boys desiring adj
mission to the Scout organization
now, they must be put on a wait
ing list and wait for a vacancy
before they can be voted in. How
ever, there are plenty of boys in
this community to organize an
other troop under another Scout
master, and this should be done,
for there is not a member who
does not benefit by his belonging
to the organization. Every
scout takes an oath before being
admitted, "To do my duty be-
fore God and my Country, and to
obey the Scout law; to help other
people at all times; to keep my
self physically strong. mentally
awake, and morally straight"
and every good scout keeps this
oath in mind at all times. At ev-.
cry meeting, each scout makes a
report Of the good deeds he has
done during the past week. He
is also expected to report any i'll
deeds he, or any other scout, has
committed, SO that in this way,
every scout is a committee. Of one
to see that the scout law and oath
is kept.
The matter of establishing /
Boy Scout Service Station at

ent unanimously voted in favor
Of it. A phone will be placed in
