No one ever gets to heaven before his
time, and to most of us It's long time
coming.
The good Lord helps US to hold our
ground while the old worlds turning
to the brighter side, but we seldom
credit Providence with that good work.
Ever stop tc think that there are
Just storms enough in life to make the
rainbows we sigh forf-Atlanta Consti-

Elmer Oistad tells good hunting
story on himself and for this reason
we know it 10 be true Elmer was
making drive through the wood,
when he can unto deer trail. Az
he stepped unto the runaway doe
came along at gait that would
make Dan Patch take the bench
seat. Elmer did not have time to
get his gun in pos ton until the
deer was upon him and he swung IL e
butt of the gun at the frightened
animal. The doe stopped
and Oistad swung his gun around
to shoot at the animal but she was
so close that he could not get the
gun to his shoulder, so he fired with
the gun at his hip, without aiming.
Elmer says the deer was so close
that the report of the gun made her
open her eyes as large as saucers,
out that after blinking them at him
she made her way through the
forests again without scratch.

estly the citizens put their shoulders to the wheel. Plans are on foot for Liberty Bond day, October 24, that show how vigorously the task has been tackled. Pine Bluff is then to make the real start in this s.upendous task, and judging from the calibre of the men behind the movement success is as near certainty as anything can be. Enthusiasm is not wanting, pa- triotism is not lacking end the money is here. A bond purchase is within the means of everyone. It is the best investment of the year. It is the guar antee of triumph to the United States armies. It is the only answer we at home can make to the tragedy of Thursday, when the German subma- rine sent 70 and more of our brave sons to watery grave. Our liberty bonds are bombs for the enemy. Ev- cry purchase is equivalent to the de- struction of German cannon and Pine Bluffs subscription will mean more than thousand yards advance at the front. Lives are given up cheer fully for this advance, certainly dol lars should be loaned equally as cheer fully to accomplish so much in such a glorious cause.

BLOOMING SHADOWS,
HOOyer's Characterization of Drift Toward Socialism Tickles So-
 cialists.

New York, Oct. 1S.-The growth of Socialism is attracting wide atten- tion. In this city the possible size of the vote that will be cast next month for Morris Hinquit, Socialist candfdates fot IS considerae tion which neither the Fusionists nor the Tammany leaders are slight ing in their calculations. The recent ratification meeting at Madison Square Garden, attended by more than 10000 persons, came as a sur prise to those who have not been fol- lowing the trend of international pol- itics closely.
 The Socialists themselves are find ing much material for congratula- tion in the evidently increasing not ice being taken of their cause. They point to the speech of Food Conrto!- Ter Hoover before the convention of business men in Atlantic City as an indication, that what they call the capitalistic class recognizes the on ward step of socialism and is begin ming to realize the necessity of talk ing steps to offset it. MT. Hoover called the drift toward socialism one of the great looming shadows" of the war.

BEWARE OF MEDDLERs.

Just at this time there is much ac- tivity among a certain class of non producers, who, while protesting to be actuated by desire to benefit work ing men and women, are really seek ing to create disturbance and provoke discord which only serve to injure the nation, the state, the city and the in- dividual.
 Pine Bluff has not been entirely free from the activities of these individu. als, who certainly cannot be classed as good Americans. For no good Am erican is going to try to do aught at this time that will cause disturbance and distress.
 It would be we'll for people of Pine Bluff, as for people of other cities, tc be cautious in their dealings with strangers who attempt to meddlc. As certain if they are the accredited rep resentatives of any reputable organ ization, or of the organization they pretend to represent.
 It is not beyond the realm of possi' bility that Prussian money may fl nance these agitators, who seem well supplied with cash, and yet they toll eth not.
 It is we'll, therefore, to exercise eau tion in dealing with strangers who urge action that may be unwise. Let them prove identity, and disclose theil motives. If they are unable to do so their advice is best ignored and tn. least communication had with then the better for all concerned.

ROLL OF HONOR
 FOR BUYERS OF
 LIBERTY BONDS

Washington, Oct. 2O.-A roll of hon. or of the millions who buy Liberty bonds is to be preserved in the na, tion's archives. Secretary McAdoo yesterday instructed the preparation of the long roll. Names will be in scribed on the parchment but not amounts, so that the man or woman who buys only a $50 bond will stand on the equal footing through the gen erations to come as his wealthier brother.
 "The name and address of every one who subscribes to the second Liberty loan of 1917 will be placed upon a roll of honor which will be kept among the permanent records of the treasury de- partment," reads Secretary McAdoo's announcement.
 "In the years to come the fathers. mothers, brothers and sisters of those subscribers, their children and their grandchildren, can point with patriotic pride to the names of their relatives or ancestors who have had a part in ehis great national service.
 "The roll of honor will be alphabeti- cally arranged and listed by states and subdivisions of states so that ev- eryone who wishes to examine it may know who is upon the roll"

FLY THE FLAG.

If you haven't already done so, fling Old Glory to the breeze today at your home, your office, your place of business, wherever you do your lit as an American citizen.
 Your country is al war. That means that you are at war. You are at war, not with the German people, but with medieaval spirit of mili- tarism, of conquest, that is hostile to every tradition of our republic, that is at variance with every Amer ican ideal
 These ideals, and the nation found. ed upon them, are our precious herit- age, bought for us by the sacrifice of militant patriots, the founders and rresarvers of our republic. For near, ly 150 years these ideals and this re public have been holding aloft the torch of liberty to the world; have been .enlightening mankind with the gospel of brotherhood, with the self evident truths that all men are created equal and with certain inalienable rights; and that the only just powers of government are derived from the consent of the governed.
 Old Glory stands for these ideals today, just as Old Golry has always tstood for them. Old Glory stands for these ideals today in an even ven wider, vaster, more comprehensive fashion, as aligned with the demo cratic spirit of all mankind.
 Let us fly the flag, and let the de. termination grip us that, whether the patriotic duty of each be thrillins or prosaic, that duty will be accept cd gladly for our country's sake.

THE PEsslxhsTIC STAGE.

z Ia America going, through the pes- simiatic stage. like England did just after her entrance into the great war? If so. that miglt be the only thing capable of explaining the tre- mendcus stock decreases of the last few weeks. and which at this writing continue low.
 The theory that there would be market manipulation to boost stocks and bonds and thus make the Liberty loan more successful, has been pretty well exploded. No banking houses have been trying it. So far they have made no effort at all to "bull'' the market. but have taken the raids sof the bears as matetr Of course.
 There is no longer any connection between bond values and actual val sues. Some of the greatest railroads s In the country. with big earnings have the lowest stock quotations they have had for generations. Many oi them have the lowest stock and bono quotations since the panic of 1907 The Southern railway, for instance with a surplus of $l2,00O.000 after paying $11,000.0OO fixed charges, vel Us in the peculiar position of having It's bonds quoted at the lowest figure s In it's history.
 The same rule--or lack of rule s is noted in industries. Nothing like ii has ever been known. A precedent
 has been broken--or new one es tahlished.
 However. we think J, P. Morgan was right when he said the other day that prices of bonds this month wont < he of much interest a year hence nor will the quotations of today make much difference in the world at thai time.

BAT is SHY OLD PUNCH
Former Lightweight Champion Easily
Defeated by Freddie Welsh.

st. Louis, April 1s.-Freddie Welsh.
lightweight champion, easily bested
Battling Nelson, a former champion,
in twelve rounds of rather tame box
ing here. Welsh was too clever for
Nelson The champion ducked,
lodged. sidestepped and backstepped
whenever Nelson started a blow and
was not hit solidly more than half a
dozen times. The champion, however,
also showed his Furnishing powers. His
left darted to Nelson's face repeatedly
and his infighting was far superior
to the battler's
The blows Nelson landed seemed to
lack their old-time sting. The con-
test was not one-sided, however. Nell
son never failed to meet Welsh in tina
middle of the arena, and never dur
ing the fight did he back off an inch.
In the eighth Nelson hit Welsh square
iy but the blow appeared low. The
champion backed up against the ropes
but Referee Ed Smith motioned the
boxers together again.
Welsh, apparently angered. then be-
gan his only real attack. He slashed
Nelson with right and left hooks. pum-
meled his body and head. Nelson
soor was bleeding. At the end of the
eleventh round. both men were GRIM
son from a cut in Nelson's lip. Mel
son weighed 1872; Welsh 1875.
