FIRE PREVENTION is A
LIVE ISSUE IN ARKANSAS

There are indications on all sides
that the war and other influences
have brought about an awakening
in Arkansas on the matter of the
curse and crime of needless waste
says the Southern Construction News,
of Little Rock
With a campaign of prosecution
against the fire bug in progress,
with new state fire marshal backed
by legislative authority, with the
press of the state enthusiastic and CO.
operating and the national govern
ment backing fire-prevention as an
importat war measure, the people of
Arkansas are becoming keenly alive
to their opportunity to cut down fire
waste and save lives, property and
war resources.
Inspectors have been oeputized to
inspect premises where dangerous
stocks such as gasoline, oils and ex-
plosives are stored and to make sug-
gestions as to the removal of trash,
and correction of other evils likely
to result in a fire or conflagation.
Such work as this is getting down
to Brass Tacks" and is bound to
have results These results will be
very gratifying to everybody-for
everybody is affected right square
in the pocketbook, by the drain of
fire waste.

THE NEW GAME LAW

State Game Warden A. G. Sted-

interview the sportsmen in regare

tention to prosecute but it is his in

crops. Hail fell over an area of
about three or four miles, beginning
near Sulphur Rock and extending tins
way to Newark, but did no material
damage here, the worst damage
being in the Magness neighborhood
where crops were beaten into shreds
by the hailstones. Corn and wheat
were badly damaged and it is feared
that the cotton is ruined.

the reputation Of having some sec

own confectioners would find very
desirable. They are able to empty
an orange of its puln entirely, then
fill it up with fruit jelly without one
being able to find the smallest cut
in the rind or even a tiny hole. In
deed, they even empty an egg in
this manner and fill it with sort
of almond nougat without one be-
ing able to find the slightest break
or incision in the shell.

CAMERA MEN IN WAR.
Their Life 10 Hard and Their Work
Exposed and Perilous.

The camera has become an es-
sential part of war equipment, and
in the hands Of daring asl Skilful
camera men is not the least dan
gerous weapon that modem armies
use against one another. The I'M
prejudiccd eye Of the camera now
preserves on every battlefield rec
ord. impossible IN the past, Of the
suffering and misery Of warfare.
This, let US hope, will help the world
to realize the horrors and wicked
ness of war.
Throughout the armies and ma
vieS of Europe the camera men have
been carefully organized. The pho
tographer is usually a commission
ed officer and becomes Il recognized
part of the great military organiza-
tions. These camera men travel
with cavalry, artillery and infantry.
They serve with the engineering
corps, in the hospitals, with the
aeronautical divisions and at sea
and are witnesses Of every phase Of
the army's activities.
When a camera man is enlisted
he is assigned to one of the COM
manders, and while serving is re-
sponsible to him. The photographer
makes his permanent residence at
the front at the headquarters of the
detachment to which he is assign
ed. He is always at the disposal of
the field commander at any hour of
the day or night and takes orders
from no one else.
The life of the camera man at
the front is a very hard one. He
may be held for days awaiting or
ders in the field, perhaps under the
most uncomfortable conditions,
ready at any moment to start on
dangerous detail. At daylight
some morning, he is probably di-
pected to take moving pictures Of
a certain position on the battle
field, captured trench or a desert
ed village, where the doctors are
still working among the dead and
wounded. He may travel by special
automobile or with ali advanced
guard or make his way on foot
alone. The pictures may be taken
from the tottering walls of build
ing or from the trenches them
selves.
Many films have been exposed
with the bullets literally flying
about the camera mans head. 1t
has been a common experience for
the camera to be shot away or
smashed by the impact of an ex-
ploding shell. Several operators
have fallen beside their instru-
ments, and a number have been
decorated for conspicuous bravery.
Danger and exposure are all in the
DAYS work. - "The Camera Man."

Australia once possessed an ami

Providence had given her special
powers to stop al trains travelling
