BELOTE STILL LEADS
 FOR DELEGATE
RETURNS UP TO MONDAY AT
 NOON INDICATE HE HAS BEEN
 NOMINATED IN DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY.

Up to noon today all the precincts in the county that held elections Sat urday have been heard from and the indications are that J. c. Be1ote has received the nomination for delegate to the constitutional convention by a small plurality over his two opponents, W. Morton Garden and Jno. w. Keith.
 Bismarck and De Roche townships are yet to be heard from and if cleo tions were held in thess two townships the result may be changed.
 The vote is probably the smallest polled in democratic primary in this county for many years. The absolute lack of interest on the partof the peo- pie strongly indicates that the consti- tutional convention does not appeal to them and that new constitution will not be ratified when presented to the people next November.

COUNTRY CLUB TO AID
 IN FOOD CAMPAIGN

While there is a food raising cam paign over the state, let Malvern rot lag behind in this agricultural pre- paredness. An appeal has been made by "The Country Club" for vacant lots that the school children should be enlisted in a campaign to make every vacant lot produce it's capacity in foodstuff. Let real estate men who have lots or land that will not be cul- tivated this year offer them free of charge to persons with no garden space. Several large lumber compan- ies, employing several hundred men, are offering each man garden plot, seed and fertilizer free of cost. Many
 eaterprising citizens in Little Rock
 ald other towns over the state are
 furnishing lots free of charge and
 why not Malvern men assist in the
 campaign for producing more food crops Special attention should be made to get women and girls of both town and country interested in can- ming fruit and vegetables. Let there be no further delay, but let real estate men or women, and owners of vacant lots, communicate with the presidents of 1The Country Club" or s. I. A.

SUNDAY SCHOOL CON-
 VENTION AT PINE BLUFF

The State Sunday School Gonven- tion meets in Pine Bluff April 24, 25 and 26. All indications point to a great convention. Those who have charge of the arrangements say this will undoubtedly be the greatest and largest attended Sunday School Con vention ever held in Arkansas. An exceptionally strong program has been arranged, upon which will ap- pear some of America's greatest Sun- day School experts. The principal speaker of the convention will be Mr. John L. Alexander, of Chicago, repre- sentative of the International Sunday School Association. Besides Mr Alex ander there will be a number of other specialists who will touch every phase of the modern Sunday School work. One of the features of the program will be the music in charge of MT. Albert E. Buss, of St. Louis, Mo, ac- companied by Mrs. Frank L. James. MT Buss uses the cornet in directing the convention music. He is consider ed one of the best cornetists in the country.
 The railroads have granted re- duced rate and are helping advertise the convention. The Pine Bluff people will provide entertainment for all registered delegates. No limit is placed upon the number of delegates school may send, but every Sunday School in the state should send at least one delegate at the expense of the school. All trains will be met by the Recep- tion Committee, and the delegates taken directly to the Y. M. c. A. where they will register, paying al small registration fee of 50 cents, which entities them to all the privi- leges of the convention. For this registration fee the delegate receives the convention badge, which will ad- init him to all sessions of the con- vention, the convention song book and a souvenir program. He also receives a years subscription to the Arkansas Sunday School Herald.
 Send your name at once to MT. E. M. Goodwin, Pine Bluff, telling him you will be at the convention.
