IAN funds have been collected and
disbursed without expense" SAYS the
statement, the Bank Of Hawaii
charging US nothing for the forward
ing Of money. The amounts forward
ed to foreign countries were practi'
caIly all sent prior to America s entry
into the war, either in the discretion
of the committee or by direction Of the
donor. Since Americas participa
tion the money has practically all
gone to the American Red Cross, and
the principle Of America First" will
hereafter be followed.
SIS 861 Sent Yesterday
The War Relief Committee yester
day forwarded $25,S61.25 to the Amer
lean Red Cross in washington. This
is the result of voluntary donations
sent in to the committee as a result
of Red Cross Week. and the commit
tee takes this opportunity of publicly
thanking the donors. The donations
that have come in are generous, but
the number Of giVers is comparatively
small. being to date an even 100.
Although the amornt at first
glance seems large it is really compar
atively small. The American Red
Cross asked for $1eo,C 100000 during
the special week, frol a the United
States, this being approximately 81
per person for each person. At that
rate Hawaii's share woGId be probab,
ly $235,0ee. It is apparent. therefore
that the people of Hawaii are not yet
awake to the fact that America is in
for a real fight, and we must bear
our share Of the burden.
with the object ia view of trying
to interest every per Son in Hawaii in
Americas cause the War Relief Com
mittee will for the continuation of the
war make an active campaign through

R. L. Brawner, former Conway

R. L. Brawner, former Conway man who is now publishing the Head- light at Heber Springs, is candidate for mayor of that city. Another former Conway man, Mortie Frauen- thai, has served several terms as mayor of Heber Springs. MT. Braw- ner's many friends here would be pleased to see him honored with the position he seeks.

"LOVE NEVER DIES."

When they were playmates the boy played the little girls favorite selec- ton, Mendelssohn's Spring Song,' and she would dance upon the green. While other boys and girls were play ing childish games Felix and Cecile were reveling in music and dance They were separated by ruthless fate, only to be thrown together again un- der the most unexpected circum- stances. The joy of living really meant something to each of them thereafter, and to live and love they |defied conventions. But society and society's laws stepped in, and when they again were parted there began the supreme test of their life's love. The rest is told in the Bluebird photo- play entitled Hove Never Dies,' to be exhibited at the Grand tonight, with Ruth Stonehouse and Franklin Far mum playing the role of the sadly beset sweethearts.

OPPOSES COUNTY AID FOR TICK ERADIDATION Member of Quorum Court Favors Dipping, but is Against
 Appropriation.
Editor Log Cabin Democrat:

Editor Log Cabin Democrat:
 l notice in your paper that the gov ernment forces were going to with draw from Faulkner county in the tick eradication matter unless the county judge would call the quorum court together and appropriate $2,000 or $3,000 to pay expenses. Now the last legislature appropriated $50,000 and the people have paid five cents a head tax for three years and the gov crnment pays some. How much do they want just to ride around and tell the people what to do? The peo- pie have to build the vats and pay for everything before they come to see anything about it. They say they want $75 a month to do this work, and 1t will take three or four hands to do it and there is nothing to do only just show the other fellow how l expect he will be awfully tired at night if he will just show me or heap of others how once. They can get just as good men to dc the work for $50 a month or less and do it just as good, but l don't expect any farmer to get the job, for his collar is not quite high and stiff enough. and because the other fellow won't work and has to have a job at a big price.
 Who ever heard of a farmer, just d common farmer getting a job at anything for even $50 a month? It don't make any difference how well up he is. Now am one of the quo rum court and believe in tick eradi- cation, or the government would not Jack it, but l am not going to vote to give those fellows fortune to do this work. They have got plenty of money. Let them do it or let it alone. 1 think there is something lead up the branch and we had better quit.

SNAIL A VALUABLE FOOD
Edible and Nutritious, 10 the Verdict
That Has Been Arrived At by
Those Who Know.

"All snails are edible and nutri
tious," says Canon Horsley in book
on British land and fresh water mol
luscs, just / .5lished. He goes on to
say that even the common or garden
snail, though insipid, is as nourishing
as calf's-foot jelly.
There is a large white shelled snail
called Helix pomatia that is commonly
eaten by connoisseurs in the south Of
England, while all over France, Italy
and Spain several species are used as
food. In France there are many snail
farms, which yield good profit to
their owners In the French and lta,
liam quarters of New York snails may
be bought, either alive or cooked, and
at most of the French restaurants
they are served, "escargots farcis" be-
ing the most usual form of the dish.
Snails are easy to raise in large
quantities. They need lime for max.
ing their shells, but they do not have
to be fed. as they can find their own
food, which is exclusively the leaves
of many plants. They are most deli.
cious when properly prepared and
cooked and, as Canon Horsley says,
as nourishing as calf's-foot jelly.

CHAPTER u.
De Spain Changes His Mind.

Before De Spain had walked far ht
heard music from the open-air dancing
pavilion in Grant street Stirred by nu
idle curiosity, he turned the corner
and stopped to watch the crowded
couples whirling up and down the
raised platform under paper lanterns
and red streamers to the music OF ar
automatic Piano. He took his place lr
fringe of onlookcrs that filled the
"idewalk. But he was thinking as he
stood, not of the Doisterous dancing OF
the clumsy dancers, but of the broken
lever and the defeat at the fairgrounds
1t still ranked in his mind. While he
stood thinking the music ceased.
A man, who appeared to be in au
thority, walked to the center of the
dancing-foor, made an announcement
that De Spain failed to catch, and
looked toward young couple stand
ing in an attitude Of waiting at the
head Of the hall.
All eyes being turned their way, De
SPANS attention as well was drawn
toward them. The man was powerful
In stature, and rather too heavy, but
straight as an Indian. His small, red.
dish face was tanned by the sun and
wind, and from the handsome hat down
to the small, high-heeled and spurred
boots, he Wore the distinctive cowboy
rig of the mountains. De Spain
seemed to recall that this particular
fellow had crowed the loudest when
he himself forfeited the shooting-match
earlier in the day.
But De Spain, unamiable as he now
was, looked with unconcealed interest
at the mans dancing partner. She.
too, was Drowned by the mountain sun

didn't find sympathy and shelter with
some of the Morgans? I believe they
are in every game pulled on the Thief
river stages"
"As bad as that?"
Jeffries turned to his desk. ASK
John Lefever."
De Spain had long talk with John.
But John was poor adviser. He ad.
vised no one on any subject. He whis.
tied, he hummed tune. He extended
his arm, at times, suddenly, as if on
the brink of positive assertion. He
decided nothing, and asserted nothing
But concerning the Morgans and their
friends, he did abandon his habitual
reticence. "Rustlers, thieves, robbers
coiners, outlaws!" he exclaimed ener.
getically.

"Never mind my money. I've got a
new job with nothing to do, and plenty
of cash."
De Spain asked what the job was

II am now general superintendent Of

"What does that mean?"

"1'm not going to take that Job,

Lefever took off his hat and twirled
it skillfully on one hand, humming
softly the while.

mind, Henry, and stay with u.s.

lively, "1'm not going to stay. I've

the crown discontentedly, and, rising
with a loss of amiability in his fea.
lures and manner, walked out of the
room.

PIPE DREAMS OF CITY MAN
Raising spuds at One Dollar BushsI
Certainly Looks Good to Us,
BY Heck!

When l am old and bent and worn
with hair all gray and pants all torn,
and town has grown too swift for me,
and in my backs miserce, I'll take
my bundle meath my arm and go and
settle on farm, and in the spring
and in the mud each square foot l
will plant a spud, then With nice
self-starting hoe I'll coax the lowly
spud to grow, as spuds were never
coaXed before, and they shall Irvine
about my door, and shall drink up
the morning dew, and shade the wind
ing avenue that sort of turns and
twists and crawls to get to my an
cestral halls.
And paris green by pecks I'll lug
to put on each pertater bug. I'll keep
the weeds out of the rows, and when
a hot wind comes and blows I'll
sprinkle each one from cun and sit
beside 1t with fan until the danger
has gone by; will not let it wilt and
die.
And when dead leaves are earth
ward tossed and when norther
threatens frost I'll get cute little
union suits to put upon the spuddish
beauts. shall know each last spud
by name and pet each one and make
1t tame; so that when autumn comes
apace I'll go and open up my face
beside the bars and call each spud by
name, and it shall leave the mud, and
leave the vine, and leave the tree,
when my call comes, and follow me.
And shall hike away to town and
where the roads go winding down the
spuds shall follow me, and go where
hungry men rush to and fro in search
of spuds, and they shall pay PUNK
peck for spuds that day, and shall
get Il wad of kalc as big ms any cotton
bale. That's what I'll do when am
old and when my blood Is getting cold.
I think I'll do it, anyhow; but I've not
