Comments

1nasmuch as the County Agent nor men representing over 75 per cent of the taxpayers of Hot Spring County were not granted sufficient time by the recent Quorum Court to present the county agent work in it's many phases, am,out of fairness to the people of this county, (including those who most vigorously fought the work) going to present few things relative to the work and some individuals which was not allowed presented before the court.
 My report read before the court and found in these columns, is self explan- atory and l publicly offered to prove every statement therein made.
 It ought not to be necessary to re- iterate any of the ogensive incidents connected herewith, neither should it be necessary to bring before a live pro- gresive people any of the arguments against nor accusations made on the county agent work. My few brief re- marks will only deal with some minor false accusations made by some of the uninformed members.
 wish to say at the beginning that have no i'll feeling against these men who most vigorously fought the work and whose names I will not men,

COMPULSORY LUNCH

 Some fear that the Compulsory Lunch discussion is going to cause great confusion and hurt the school It may and it may not. If the school board will hear the voice of the peo- pie and call a meeting at once, and strike out that unfair and undemo- cratic ruling, all will be well and the school is safe. If the rights of the patrons are ignored by those in auth o1ity then troublesome times are upon our good school. Gentlemen, don't wait too long.

FLAG WILL SHOW
MEM'ERS ADDED
TO RED CROSS
Public to Be Informed of
Campaign Progress,

The state committee in charge of the
Rcd Cross Christmas membership
drive in Oklahoma has adopted a plan
for keeping the public informed as to
The progress OF the campaign December
II 10 "a The plan IS sufficiently
simple in detail to be feasible for any
town and the committee expects that 1t
will be adopted throughout the state.
On the front of the headquarters
building, Main and Broadway will be
placed a large Red Cross service flag
consisting Of a Red Cross on field
OF white within a blue border. The
Red Cross, instead Of being solid red
will be an outline, filled with squares
each for denotng the addition of a
certain proportion OF the citys quota
which in the case of Oklahoma City
is 10000 members.
Workers Optimistic.
With each addition OF a sufficient
number of names one of the small
squares will be colorcd solid red, so
that when the city's quota is raised
the Red Cross will appear in solid
! color. For each additional number OF
names equal to the number represented
by small square there will be added
! q small Red Cross upon the white
field, so that the exact number OF
! memberships secured will be indicated
at all times.
While the oitys quota is 10000 mem
berships, the county's quota 2Sp0 and
the states 100000, and that of the
country 100000 it is, the confident
expectation Of the workers that the
Quota will be exceeded all along the
line.
Z Movement Endorsed. %.
J. II Gordon of McAlester, manager
OF the southeastern district, addressed
the State Baptist association in session

A HACK THAT MADE GOOD
Tisamony. No Good as a Two Year
Old. Scores a Year
Later.

NEW YORK. June 30.-The veteran
.rainer and owner. Green b. Morris,
was talking over horses which. after
having been rated as of no account,
had suddenly developed dazzling speed
I once bought two colts as yearlings
one by Pat Ma11oy. which cost me a
good strong price" he said. II rated
him as the making of a real stake
horse. and another which l bought for
$500 because / liked his breeding, turn
ed out to be of absolutely no account
as a two-year- old. and would have
been glad to sell him for 500. but no
body wanted him. and I was in the
habit of using him as a hack. I let the
stable boys ride him out to the lake
when they went out fishing, and he
would come back with two or three of
them on his back besides lot of fish.
One morning at Morris Park / put a
little stable hoy on his back and sent
him out as a sort of schoolmaster for
the others. because he could not run
faster than they ought to work
when I put the little green boy up
on him I said to him: Now | want you
to show me how far you can beat these
other fellows. You just light into this
colt and send him along as fast as you
boys to pull back to him as ! just
wanted to give the youngsters an easy
work of six furlongs over the hill at
Morris Park Well, you can guess how
surprised ] was when the little boy
and this hack of mine raced right out
in front as II the others were standing
still. The other boys knew ] wanted
1t to be easy work and when they saw
the hack cutting out such pace they
eased up their colts and let him go.
when he finished the six furlongs
over the hill and down the chute in
liz -5, l made sure that my watch
was fooling me, and I was ashamed
to ask anybody what the time really
was until ] came to Charley Boyle from
Canada and Jeter Walden. and they
asked me what I had been keeping I'M
der cover. I told them I was afraid
my watch was wrong, but they showed
me their watches and they just agreed
with mine. Then we agreed to keep 1t
quiet, and we put up everything we had
on a maiden race in which I started
him, and, of course. he won in a gallop
That was when he was a three-year-
old. and as he had just got out of the
maiden class it took the general public
some time to realize how good he was.
and in the meantime we cleaned up
very nicely. taking several stakes with
good prices about him.
Then ] was offered $4,000 for him,
but I would not look at it. for had him
in that big championship stake worth
$4,000, which I knew / could win, but

EXPERTS SAY

The most common and ruinous abuse
of the battery is to let it go dry. The
battery loses water even under normal
conditions. partly through slow evapo-
ration. but chiefly through decomposi-
ton into its constituent gases. oxygen
and hydrogen. by excessive charging.
If your battery demands water filling
more frequently than il should. IL
the battery links heat to 4 temperature
warmer than that OF the hand. have
your generator inspected and tested and
the charging rate reduced.
When your engine misses and 1t seems
impossible to find the cause it may be
due to water in the carburetor. If YOU
have made every other test You can
think of, try draining the carburetor.
Catch little of it's contents in your
hand or some other receptacle If wa
ter is present it will be repealed by the
gasoline and form in easily seen glo
buleS.
The popular idea that repaired or
questionable tires are used to hest adj
vantage on the front wheels is a per-
ilous one. The danger Of a blowout
when travelling twenty-five miles an
hour or better is greatest if the blow
out occurs on the front wheels. A Sc
rious accident seldom results from a
on the rear wheels
Don't leave tire chalk out of your
| tool kit. Some of il should be shaken
into the shoe every time you change
tubes. 1t helps the tube to settle into
place and reduces friction between the
| tube and the shoe, thus prolongng the
life of the tube.
Hold your hand over the breathing

running to see if air is passing out. If
the breathing tube gets clogged it puts
back pressure on the piStons that
reduces the power of the motor.
If at any time you open the switch
and the engine continues to run it
| is due to glowing carbon over
| heated engine. Close throttle. put
gears in low speed. apply foot brake
gently and let in clutch suddenly.
| This will stall motor.
| An automobile dealer says that any.
| one who wants to have fine running
| motor should put couple of quarts of
light or medium lubricating oil in with
every ten gallons of gasoline pumped
| into the tank. This is particularly eff
ficacious. he says. in the case of new
motor. 1t will be limbered up in con-
| siderably less time and will give bet
ter service thereafter.
Do not neglect to take a few spark
| plug cores with you on your trip The
metal parts of spark plug will last
almost Indefinitely, but the cores must
break in time, and that usually means
buying a new spark plug. AS the cores
can be bought for a fraction of the
cost of a new spark plug. it means
economy to carry a few with you. Also
carry a few extra gaskets.

DO YOU KNOW?

When the starting crank is not
handy and the self-starter fails to
work the motor may be started by
lacking up one rear wheel. throwing
Off the brake and setting gears at di-
rect drive. BY turning the wheel the
motor will be operated in same man

Do not lower Jack until clutch is neu-

The constant use of hard or dirty
water for cooling purposes will result
in the clogging of the radiator When
this condition arises, to clean the radi-
ator. good method is to dissolve a
half pound of Eye in about five gallons
of water. Strain the liquid through
a cloth and pour into radiator Run
cleaning mixture. Fill with clean water
and run the motor again, and finally
refill the cleaned cooling system with
