His Candidacy For Chancellor.

Hon. Lyman F. Reeder, who is an
nounced in this paper as a candi-
date for judge of the chancery courts
in this district, is a resident Of
Batesville, and at the present time
is the only announced candidate for
chancellor, on Office which has been
held by Judge Geo. T. Humphries Of

MIR. Reeder has been practicing
in the state, federal and supreme
courts Of Arkansas for tn e
past eighteen years, and Tor eleven
years has been a member of the
we'll known firm of McCaleb & Reed
er 1t is no exageeration to say
that he possesses one of the best
judicial minds in the state, and the
truthfulness of this assertion will be
attested to by members of the legal
profession who have come in con.
tact with Mr.. Reeder in any of the
courts Of the country, AS a man
and citizen he maintains the res
pee. and confidence of the entire
citizenship of the little city in which
he resides and of those people else
where who have an acquaintance
with him.
Mr. Reeder has entered the race
for chancellor at the earnest solici.
ton of fellow attorneys and friends
all over the district, who recognize
his capability and especial fitness
for the place, and hundreds of friends
will urge his nomination In the pri'
maries because they admire him
personally and know it would be an
honor most worthily bestowed to
give him the Office he seeks.
Speaking Of his candidacy the
Bstesyille Guard makes this pertj.
nent statement;
Mr.. Reeder is not a politician by
any means but is clean man, with
a high sense of honor, and with q
keen perception of right and wrong,
which will be his largest asset in
making a good public servant in
this capacity,
lie will not resort to the old
style, frayed-out political game of
abusing his opponent to be elevated
to this Office Of trust, but Oh the
contrary will make a clean. honor
able race, whichlis the sensible and
sane course to pursue, and II elect
ed will reflect credit upon the entire
district and his many friends and
admirers"

boarding place has considerable to do
in determining whether the teacher
will make a success or not. Several
teachers have complained to me the
past two weeks that suitable board
ing place can not be found. The fin
est home in the district is none too
good for the teacher. If she is good
enough to instruct the children she is
good enough for the very best place
to board

Food Administration Notes.

August 10, 1918.
Mr.. a. B. Owen,
County Food Administrator.
Butler, Missouri.
Dear Mr.. Owen:
We have received your letter OF
August II in regard to retailers mar
gins on wheat mill feeds.
Millers or retail dealers are allowed
a profit of $500 per ton. I5c per cwt.
over cost in case of sales to consum-
ers at the door, or $500 per ton, zoe
per cwt., in case of delivery.
If the miller manufactures the feed,
he may add this margin to his basis
in exactly the same manner that other
margins are added. He cannot add
both the margin allowed on sales to
dealers and also the margins allowed
on sales to consumers.
Very truly yours,
u. S. Food Administration,
By S. P. Dalton.

\ letter from Spruce boy
Mrs. kinblc:
Dear Cousin - II answer to your
hind letter that | received at Camp
Dodge | only have few minutes. but
I will give you few points on our
/ Journey. We got on the train at
| Camp Dodge and never got OFF until
We landed in New York. That is a
long ride. We had nice trip. but
Guess YOU know we arc not allowed
to tell anything about our aims ii, the
way Of moving or anything about
camp that might give a clue to the
| enemy. We are not allowed to give
uur address.
We got two lunches on our train.
The rest came from the Red Cross:
The train stopped at Lake Erie and
we all took a swim in the lake. Then
I'VE went up to the Red Cross and they
gave us lunch that was sure fine.
In every city the Red Cross meets the
trains and we sure are glad to see
them come. 1t is awful hot here. 1T
rained this afternoon We sure have
some army now.
| sure will be glad when we get on
the other side. We are all anxious to
60 on so we can have hand i'll the
battles. We will soon have enough IN
the lines to walk right over any Ger
man line The SSth division is going
to be one of the best on the line. we
sure have some fine men i'll our COM
pam. There is no one that ought to
have a pull at the Red Cross. 1t
costs lots to run it as they have thou-
sands to feed all the time and they are
the help we have after we embark for
over sea. Everything comes through
the Red Cross. They are doing fine
work
The airplanes are over camp most
all the time. We saw lots of ships IN
New York. We came through some
large shipyards on our way. Lots OF
them take 10000 1ITerI at OHt trip. W
have fine bunch of officers. would
love to he with you all for while and
tell you OF this fine trip and what
sights. | have now been from coast
to coast. | enjoyed your letter and

time for we sure get the blues some
times and Il letter does us so Mulch
good. Write when you can.
Respectfully.
