THE VACATION LIAR.

Uo will soon have with us the vaca- .ion liar. He is delightful fellow. ono cannot help liking him. We listen x his stories and marvel at his wealth of imagination.
 1rne has been fearful month so for and the vacation season does not look as inviting as it will look this t;r,o next month. In July the earth will be parched and hot and will more tban make up for the surplus of rain 4hot we have received of late.
 We seldom think of vacations dur mo the early days of spring, but n,bon the sun looks down with a pitt 1oss eve then we begin to dream of +be ocean, the mountain, the country and the camp where we can rest in quiet solitude.
 With the coming of summer and the vacation season comes the vaca- lion liar, and the wonder of it is that be shows up each season with an en- fire new repertoire of stories, each of which is more stupendous than the one he told last year.
 Wait until the first fishing party comes home and keep your ears open. you will hear him tell of one fish he caught of such size and weight that native fishermen gathered about him speechless with wonder over the prize displayed. Another old native will say that it is the biggest fish he has seen since his grandfather, back in the early sixties, caught one that was just a mite bigger.
 Or he will tell you of the fish he nearly caught and will add that if he had not had his attention attracted elsewhere he would have certainly brought that fish home to exhibit in a show window. If he is not telling you of the fish he, in a careless way, tells of the rattlesnake he killed that was over Is feet m length.
 He will exhibit the marks of mos quito bites and look you honestly in the eye and declare, that Int never saw a mosquito the entire time he was away.
 He will drift back home during the summer and will look worn and tired and thin with an expression of "home, sweet home" in his eye and will tell you that he gained 12 pounds in 12 days and that he had to sleep under double blankets every night, and the poor, dear old vacation liar tells his story so often that he actually begins to believe that it is the truth, and be- comes fighting mad if you dare to even mildly question his veracity.
 The vacation liar does no one any harm. He finds enjoyment in his fab rlcations and excites wonder among his friends because of the fertility of hlsimagination.-Commercial his Appeal.

BONNIE DAVIS LOSES
 WAREHOUSE BOARD JOB
Attorney General Holds He's Inelig- ible Because of Membership in
 Assembly.

Little Rock, March 23.-A member of the forty first general assembly can be elected a delegate to the constitu- 1 tional convention, but cannot be ap- pointed or elected to any civil office under the state for the term for which he was elected to the legislature. This is the construction. that has been placed by Attorney General Ar buckle upon Section 9, Article 5, of the constitutions:
 "No senator or representative shall, during the term for which he shall have been elected, be appointed or elected to any civil office under this state."
 1 It all depends upon the meaning of of the term "any civil office under the state" It is held by the attorney general that the position of delegate | to the constitutional convention does not come under the inhibition. This will be a relief to a large number of the members of the recent legisla- 1 ture who are candidates for dele gate.
 But it is held as definitely and de- cisively that the constitutional pro vision will prohibit any member of the house or senate from holding any position, appointive or elective, on any commission or board. or in any de- partment of the state government, during the term for which they were elected members of the legislature. The one most prominently affected by this decision is representative Bonnie Davis of Columbia, who had been slated for the office of deputy ware house commissioner under the act of which he was the author. There are also deputy game warden, a deputy gasoline inspector, and a clerical po- sition involved.

SAY OLDSMOBILES
 SELL ON SIGHT

The claim of Oldsmobile salesmer that the new series Oldsmobile cars "sell themselves" upon sight is beine borne out in a unique way through the medium of the necessity born "drive- away" The Lansing factory has ex- perienced the inconvenience of the freight car shortage in the same de- gree as have all automobile manufac- turers, and, like others, has found it necessary to drive cars overland to railroad terminals where freight cars have been available. That this opera ton had any other than an indirect advertising or sales value was first brought to the attention of factory officials when letters began coming from automobile dealers along drive away" routes applying for Oldsmobile dealerships, and giving the source of their interest in the line as the Oppor- tunity which came to them to observe the cars closely as various overland fleets have come their way. Needless to say these Heads" have not been neglected by the factory sales force, gre now accredited to the advertising value of the "Grive away"
 This is only one of many indica- tions that the new 1917 Oldsmobile has met with instant favor on the part of the automobile-bu public The factory at Lansing is working night shifts in many departments, and still is unable to come within. hun dreds of cars of filling orders cnahand Distributors in all sections of the country are rapidly closing open ter ritory, and the Oldsmobile dealer body is said to be approaching a state of high efficiency. Naturally Oldsmobile dealers are jubilant over the outlook for the present season, and express confidence in their ability to dispose of twice as, many cars as their allot- ments call for, if they could be se- cured.

BANK OF ENGLAND
 REAPS GOOD PROFIT

Correspondence Associated Press.)
 London.-The Bank of England, which is now working night and day on the war loan, is not, as many peo- pie think, a government institution. It is a private company, and reaps a good profit by acting as the nations banker
 The remuneration paid to the Bank of England for the management of the national debt was fixed. in 1906 as a. yearly sum at the rate of 325 pounds per million pounds of such debt up to five hundred million, and 100 pounds per million pounds above this amount. On this basis assuming a total war debt of 2,500,000,000 the. banks remuneration will reach about 250,O0O pounds annually Z from this source alone, in addition to the 165,- 900 pounds in respect to the old na- tional debt, which, at the beginning of the war, was about $50 million pounds.

In advising Representative 0. l

In advising Representative o. B. Robbins of Searcy, that he is incl igible to the office of deputy oil in- specor, Attorney-General Arbuckle says:
 Practically all the authorities in speaking of public office or civil office seem to give to it the following ear marks: ....~.a
 Definite tenure, prescribed duties, and requirement. of bond.
 "In the opinion of this office, there fore, since the deputy inspectors are required to have all the qualifications of the inspector and shall have all the powers and performs the same duties and shall be subject to the same penalties and liabilities as the In- spector, and in addition are required to enter into bond in the sum of $1O,- 900, they are evidently within the province of the section of the consti- tuition, and hence being a3member of the legislature you would not be eli gible to the position of deputy inspec- tor"
