weather for outdoor pastime is for
bidding; here is their favorite athlet-
ic paraphanalia; here they feast their
souls, listening to the comedy, pathos
and songs, presented by the best stage
talent the world commands; here on
the sabbath they hear the word of
God, which sinks like lone star of
hope into the caverns of their hearts;
dispelling gloom and sorrow which the
trenches and the experiences in No
Mans land, may have awakened there,
substituting the sickness of the soul
with the healthy tonic of good cheer
the bracing courage that means hero
ic achievement in the future
When you give to the United War
Workers you give in absolute charity
and out of goodness of heart alone.
Will your heart and spirit stand the
test? When you give you make sure
that every fighter has the comforts
and consolation of relief backing him
up every step of the way from home
to the front and back again. Your
money goes to provide these huts,
which mean, your boys church, his
theatre, his home, his store. his school,
club and athletic field. by which, let
US add. he is vividly reminded that
the folks back home are with him
heart and soul All this means morale
and courage to our soldier boys and
it is morale that is winning this war.
You have loaned your money in Lib
erty bonds, etc. to supply the physi
cal needs of winning the war. now give
your pittance to bolster up the NOR
ale that will bring the war to an ear
ly and desirable conclusion.
1t is fully worth every cent of "a
billion dollars to this country in the
next year to lick the Germans, and it
is surely worth one per cent of that
sum to make the work a little lighter
for the men who are doing the fight
ing. That would be 240 millions. But
not 24O million. but only ITO millions
is called for by the budget, less than
Is cents per day per boy.
What are you going to do about it!
Are you behind the fighter heart and
soul, with all your might and mon
ey? Are you going to complain about
hard times, when the truth of the
matter is that we here have not even
begun to learn what war really means
Throw down your petty grouches and
trample upon them; cast aside your
chickering's and personal feelings-just
now we are Americans and to win
this war is our one only national task
and to accomplish this end We must
make those fighting the war feel that
we are with them, that we are doing
over here for them Cover There This
will buoy them up and the filter the
fighter the faster the finish.
Our appeal is Of course centered up
on the citizens of Sedgwick county,
and we do so with the full confidence
that as our county has ever been
among the first in the past to raise
its proportionate share, so We again
will stand in the forefront of those
who clean up their allotted quota.

lars $S,O25.OO) is our allotment. This
means our share of dollars for dough-

countries; for this purpose do they

seven leagues that work as one to aid
our boys to lick the Hun; seven in one
they make their call and you give to
each when you give all.
1t is the cry of your own flesh and
blood from far distant France, asking
through the United War Workers, to
give of your substance and to give
freely the things which mean hope
and consolation to their acting hearts.
Will you answer with open heart and
open purse? You cannot carry water
on both shoulders in this matter, you
must either give or refuse. which
means you are either with them or
against them, you are either building
up the morale of your boys or you
are strengthening the treachery of the
Hun.
Suppose you had been week in the
trenches, can you imagine what i:

ANNOUNCES FOR
 COUNTY SURVEYOR

Through the medium of the col umns of this paper take the liberty to announce my candidacy for the of flee of surveyor of Jackson county, Arkansas. I sincerely trust that I may have the vote and support of the people of my home county, at the coming primary, and if elected prom ise to discharge the duties of this | important office in an honorable manner to the very best of my abil- ity
 I was reared in this county Gas ev- cry voter knows) and have spent my | past life here, receiving my literary training in the schools of the state. l was reared in the country and spent eight years teaching in the public schools in the various parts of the county I am now serving my second term as county superintendent of schools of this county, position which I was indeed proud to be hon. ored with. While I realize that I have not reached perfection by any means, through the cooperation of teachers and patrons, in the advance ment of education in Arkansas, Jack son county has always been accredit- ed with doing her part. The follow ing is a comparison of my first and last annual reports to the state su- perintendent of public instructions:
 June 30, 1915-Length of school term, 113 days; June 30, 1917, 40 days.
 June 30, 1915-The first grade teachers were of the total number employed. 56 per cent; June 30, 1917, 70 per cent.
 June 30, 1915- Average salary paid to First grade teachers, S58.35; June 30, 1917, S61.00.
 June 30, 1917-Balance on hand (on 7 mill basis), $2s,955.18; June 30, 1917, $43,06S.21.
 I am indeed proud of what l have been able to contribute to the educa- tional welfare of our county and the teaching profession shall always have my highest admiration. love children and delight in discharging the duties of teachers, but owing to the financial support which IS ne- cessary to support my family, it IS necessary for me to engage in other business.
 hope to meet all the voters in person but should I perchance miss you your vote and friendship will be highly appreciated the same as had I been able to have given you card and shaken your hand.

 All can boost the work along tho facts of the case give it a nat ural boost-the eight-hour day gives it boost, and the fact of organiza- tior providing better conditions for the workers all over the world give 1t fine boost along. But we must help the work along-eve-y man must help the work along, and with out the aid and cooperation of each and every man who is a member of organized yabor it cannot be done
 Not one logical argument can be put forward against the unions; why Gsk any working man if he is a member and if not, why not, and cce what he says.
 REMEMBER ITS THE RECOG- NITION OF THE UNION, AND $500 PER DAY AND BOARD FOR EIGHT HOURS, IS WHAT THE MINERS UNION WILL DEMAND AFTER MAY 1ST, 1918.
