REASONS FOR THIS
GREAT OFFER.

For many years piano
houses have been trying to
reduce the selling expenses
of pianos in the old way, pay
ing solicitors, teachers and
other commissions. We are
trying to eliminate this un-
necessary cost and give the
customer the benefit thereof.
We are therefore using the
allowance to us by manu-
facturers we represent in
making this unusual offer di-
rect to the people of this ter
ritory.

He quoted a tele gram from the commander in chief of the southwestern front saying that the shortage of bread and biscuit on this front amounted almost to famine. General Korniloff then read figures relating to the production of war materials which he said had decreas- Cd compared with the period from October 1916 to January 1917 by 60 per cent of guns and shells and 80 per cent for airplanes.

 General Korniloff expressed his firm belief that the measures he pro posed would immediately be put into execution.
 When General korniloff concluded his speech there were prolonged cheers from every side except the ex- treme left, where several members of the soldiers and workmen's organiza- 1lon remained silent General Korni- lcH immediately left the hall and pro- ceeded to a train which took him to Headquarters.

 Monday evening from trip during which he attended the convention Of the Knights of Columbus at Chicago, as the representative of the state of Arkansas, and the national meeting Of the Eagles at Buffalo, N. Y, as rep
 resentative of the Pine Bluff aerie.
 "We don't know what we've got here," MT. Franey said emphatically last night. This trip has opened my eyes to the resources of Arkansas, and to what we have in the Pine Bluff territory. Men who are leaders Tn their communities have helped to show me what a great country we have here. I've found that the eyes Of the country are upon Arkansas. One man familiar with conditions in this country told me, Buffalo has a of 600,00O, but it hasn't on your town in resources
 and possibilities A gentleman from Kansas said that as soon as he can dispose of his holdings in that state, It's me igor Arkansas; you people don't know what you have there.' I found many men better acquainted with the resources Of Arkansas than are people of this state. I've come back embued with tie determination to do my part in putting Pine Bluff where she ought to be in the league of cities. With our wealth, and our re- sources we ought ito have popula- tion of 10000 in ten or fifteen years. And I'm convinced that all that's necessary to attain this growth is for us to get to work and make the most of the blessings that God has given us."
 Mir. Franey said the Knights of Columbus raised more than $3,000,- 900 to care for the families of mem bers called to the colors. This huge sum was raised in less than a day." said MT. Franey. Indiana turned in a check for $90,000 Immediately"
 The Eagles meeting at Buffalo was bne of the largest and most gratify- ing Mr. Franey has attended, he said
 Everywhere he stopped, MT. Franey found business flourlshing, and bus mess men confident as to the future.

opportunities of the world-the Ger man people, of course, included. if they will accept equality and not seek domination. The test therefore of every plan of peace is this: Is it based upon faith of all the peoples in volveG, or merely upon word of an ambitious and intriguing government on the one hand and of group of free peoples on the other? This is test Which goes to the root of the matter and it is the test which must be ap- piled. The purposes of the United States in this war are known to the whole world-to every people to whom the truth has been permitted to come. We seek nc material advantaee e of any kind. * Punitive dam ages, the dismemberment of empires. the establishment of selfish and ex- elusive leagues, we deem inexpedient, and in the end, worse than futile. no proper basis for peace of any kind. least Of all for an enduring peace. That must be based upon justice and tairness and common rights of man Kind We cannot take the word of 0 guarantee of anything that is to en- dure. unless explicitly supported by such conclusive evidence of the will and purpose of the German people themselves as the other peoples of the world would be justified in accepting. Without such guarantee, treaties of settlement, agreements for disarma- ment, covenants to set up arbitration m the place of war, territorial ad- justments, reconstitutions of small na- 'icns of small nations, if made with the German government, no man, no nation, could now depend on.
 We must await some new evidence or the purposes of the great peoples of the central powers. God Grant that 1t may be given soon, and il way to restore confidence to all peoples ey. anywhere in the faith of nations and the possibilities of covenated peace.
