SPECIALIST SAYS MAN
 WAS REALLY NOT BLIND
Pine Buns CharitabIy Inclined Folk
 Imposed Upon By Man Who Worked On Sympathies Thru Two Tots.

| There departed yesterday from Pine Bluff, to their home in Helena, l q man and his two little daughters, who had spent several days in Pine Bluff and whose income during their brief stay here is said to have aggre- gated a considerable amount from the sale of printed slips of a song" and of lead pencils, principally by the two little girls.
 One of the girls is not yet five years Of age, and the other is not more than seven. The father professed to be blind. and naturally, sympathy was generally aroused, especially for the tots. by the appearance of the chill dren and their father. with the songs and pencils to be sold. Coins, principally .a-cent and 1O-cent pieces. were given literally to the tots, and few persons accepted either the song or the pencil in exchange therefor. The departure of the trio yesterday was the result of the investigation sociated Charities. When the pres ence of the man and his tots became known. he was seen by representa- tive of the Associated Charities. and urged to leave the city. This he re- | fused to do. despite continued urg- ings, based on the grounds that it | was unfair and improper to the chil- dren to continue such activities and surroundings.
 Finally, the matter was referred to the probation officers and taken by her into the juvenile court. Judge l.. E. Cheek had the man and children brought before him, and local spe- cialist was called upon to examine the man. When the specialist re- ported that he could find no indica- tions that the man actually is blind
 the man offered to return to his home
 with the tots, and to remain there. To
 this Judge Cheek consented with the understanding that the man must cease travelling with the two chil- dren. virtually begging" livelihood. 1 At the office of the Associated l Charities, attention was called to the
 fact that this was only another of the
 frequent cases where the general
 public is imposed upon because of it's
 failure to handle all such cases
 through the organization. which is
 equipped to quickly and definitely in-
 vestigate each and every person who
 requests aid of any kind.

MAMMOTH ELBERTAS
 IN PINE BLUFF

Pine Bluff and Jefferson county are the places for Elberta peaches. Here Is where they grow to mammoth pro- portions and are more than worth while. Besides, they turn out in great size in the second year.
 This is conclusively shown by two mammoth Elbertas taken from tree in Miss Lizzie Owens yard at Second and State, transferred to a jar of al cohol for preservation and placed on desk of K. B. Bloom, secretary of the Pine Bluff Chamber of Commerce.
 !. Miss owens took three peaches from the tree. the total weight for the three being two and half pounds. The two that were placed in the jar weighed 15 ounces each. This Is the second year of the tree. and there are others on the limbs that bid fair to weigh above pound.
