In recent interviews with physicians
on the grave and serious conse-

prescribe more phosphate in the
form of Argo-Phosphate for weak,

women. When the skin is pale, and
flesh flabby, it is a sign of anema.

The election for a 2-mil! tax fo-
the Public School system is being
held throughout the parish today.
The vote will be exceedingly light
due to not many being registered.
The law requires the books of the
registrar to be closed thirty days
prior to the election. Due to this
date following upon the heel Of the
call, little time interviewed for such
purpose, and for this special cleo
ton the law did not permit the
books of registration to be taken
over the parish. The hurry of the
call and date of election was neces-

A large number of people witness
ed the Very Good Eddie" perform
ance at the Opera House Monday
night. Little Eddie" was the
brightest spot in the show which
would have been enjoyable through
out had there been better voices in
the musical numbers. The closing
number was the best Of the program
but this was spoiled for those who
wanted to hear it by stampede for
exits when it was just begun.
Should there be the same haste to
get to the theatre at the starting
hour as there is to depart at the
closing hour, all performances
would be certain of starting
promptly.

torious Saturday, when the first
team defeated Franklin High

himself at the polls and register his
approval of the project. No public
Improvement in a community is bet
ter than good highways and as the
Sixtr and Fourth Wards have taken
the initiative by levying small taxes
to carry on this important work the
good people of the Seventh Ward,
should also give their hearty en-
dorsement to the undertaking pro-
posed by their Police Juror, Mr..
Miguel, who is taking the lead in
this matter. The fact that the

FIFTY MILES SOLID
HIGHWAYS PLANNED
MONTGOMERY COUNTY LAUNCH.
Es MOVE FOR PERMANENT
GOOD ROADS.
WILL MERGE DISTRICTS
Six Divisions That Exist Now Will be
Consolidated to Build Road to Con-
meet With Little Rock on East
and Oklahoma on West.
Womble.

MOmDle,-
Plans were made for so miles OF
permanent good highways in Mont
gomery county at meeting OF tax
payers held at Womble and called by
the county judge and participated in
by about 100 citizens from the terri
tories through which it is proposed to
build the highways.
The plans adopted include the con-
solidation of six road districts, which
reach entirely across Montgomery
county, east and west, about 40 miles,
with large district also reaching to
the Pike county line via Caddo Gap
to within mile of Glenwood. Both
will be main highways connecting the
entire south half OF the county, and
will be supported by good revenue
producing properties. These highways
will connect at the east with similar
highways reaching Hot Springs and
Little Rock and on the west with
Mena and Oklahoma points.
The new district will at once pur-
chase an outfit OF suitable road-mak-
ing machinery and will begin actual
road building as soon as the machin-
cry Is received. The state highway
commission has been requested by
Hon. John B. Kelly, county Judge, TO
survey these roads, and it is the pur-
pose to build the roads under the
direction of the highway engineer,
Garland county and Polk county will
each be asked to cooperate with the
new district by building their links
in the proposed line from Mena
through Montgomery county to Hot
Springs and Little Rock Assurance
has been givtn by responsible people
IN each county that these links will
be built
The sentiment Of the hundred men
was unanimous that the old road sys-
TEN had failed; that the county
should form stronger and larger dis
trict and work under expert direction,

WILSON AWAITS
EXTRA SESSION
PRESIDENT HAS TAKEN ALL POS.
SlBLE MEASURES FOR DEFENSE
BEFORE CONGRESS MEETS.

Washington.-Having taken virtual
ly every defense measure possible be-
| fore the assembling Of Congress, Pres
ident Wilson and his advisers are
concentrating their efforts to prepare
for the more sweeping steps for which
congressional authority will be sought
The details Of steps to be recon-
mended are held in closest confidence,
but officials lets it be known that
among other things a general military
budget, co-ordinating many items or
expense deemed imperative, will be
laid before Congress when the extra
session begins.
During the day the Council of Ma
tional Defense held a conference with
its advisory committee Of seven in
dustrial leaders, who have mapped out
mobilization plans for the countrys
| economic resources; the Navy De-
I partment awarded contracts for "a de-
stroyers and called a conference OF
steel and other material companies
for next week to consider means OF
speeding up the naval construction;
! the War Department announced that
failure Of the army appropriation bill
at the last session Of Congress would
not be permitted to handicap the army
preparations, ard regulations were
promulgated to guide the countrys
newspapers in a voluntary censorship
preventing publication Of details
which might embarrass the govern
ment.
In making the awards on destroyers
Secretary Daniels accepted the maxi
mum estimate OF each Of the three
companies submitting figures. OF the
| "a ordered nine will be built under the
emergency fund, Congress having spc-
cfically authorized only IS. A consid
cradle number Of other builders were
in conference with officials, however,
and indications are that the order
will be doubled or even trebled, II "a.
cilities for construction OF the yes
sells can be found
Regarding the activities Of the War
Department, Secretary Baker made
this statement to the newspaper men:
"Of course, everybody knows that
the international situation is tense
The War Department, like every other
department OF the government, is busy
with state OF preparation, but with
out attempt on the part Of the depart
ment or anybody else to determine
what that preparation is for, except
TO put our national strength in a state
Of efficiency.
Everybody realizes that this is a
sort of unnatura! situation. We are
making preparations and buying sup
plies and all that sort Of thing, and
yet the policy Of the country is still
to be determined by She legislative
body, and Just what will happen Is to
be determined by the president and
Congress.
"All that you can say Of the War
Department Is that It Ia pressing
ahead all purchases OF everything that
will be needed to equip an army, II
the army Is to be called upon"
