WILL REORGANIZE STATE
HOME GUARD COMPANIES

Little Rock, Nov. 30.-A campaign
is to be conducted by Adjutant Gen
eral Lloyd England to reorganize the
Home Guard companies of the state
into battalions and regiments.
That this may be done, it is impera-
tive that all officers cooperate active
~ and cnergetically in bringing their
companies up to the highest standard
of efficiency.
1t is suggested that officers use
every means in their power to make
the drills progressive and interesting.
The Home Guard is a permanent state
organization and the officers of the
various companies are urged to call
meetings as soon as possible with a
view to stimulating interest.
Adiutant General England says;

of the citizens of your community.

He took a deep breath, seemed to
shake himself out of 1t, and smiled
cheerfully upon her.
"We'il put our treasure-trove on the
sled and go back to your friends" he
continued briskly. Tomorrow I'll send

Sheba drew the canvas back over the
face of the dead man. AS she followed
Macdonald back to the trail, tears filled
her eyes. She was remembering that
the white, stinging death that had
crept upon these men so swiftly had
missed her by a hairs breadth. The
strong, lusty life had been stricken
out of the big Cornishman and prob
ably of his partner in crime. Perhaps
they had left mothers or wives or
sweethearts to mourn them.
Macdonald relieved Elliot at break
ing trail and the young man went back
to the gee-pole. They had discarded
mukluks and wore moccasins and
snowshoes. 1t was hard, slow work,
for the traiI-breaker had to fight his
way through snow along the best route
he could find. The moon was high

the uninteresting remnant of humanity.
No matter how far afield their talk be-
gan, it always came back to them
selves. They wanted to know all about
each other, to compare experiences
and points of view. But time fed too

her half-shy, half-audacious smile, that

REAL ENCOURAGEMENT.
Very truly,

Road Supervisor.

The Food Administration of Texas
has undertaken TO enauguiate cam
pigp in that state for the people TO
abstain from the use of wheat flour for
45 days, commencing with April /.
Many have agreed to 1t.
That IS the kind of patriotism that
counts and it should encourage other
states to attempt similar savings.
Some people think they could scarce
ly live if deprived of wheat bread for
that length of time, but such an idea
is all mistake. Try it in real earnest
and see how readily you can carry your
resolution through.
