of Chicago who died suddenly in the

He was an old man, victim of adj

of his prosperity. The authorities were
about to consign the body to the pot

A Lamar young man stepped into
the flower store the other morning to
order some flowers sent to young
lady. He noticed some fine roses and
asked Mr.. White the name. The lat

meanwhile finished wrapping up the
flowers. Then he said, "Hoosier
Beauty" The young man said, what
do you mean?" and he again said,
''Hoosier Beauty"
Then the young man got indignant
and said, Are you trying to get fresh

Memorial Tablet.

The suggestion was started this
week by ]. A. Downing that purse
be started at once to be placed in the
hands of proper trustees and added to
and held until the close of the war
Then the sum to be expended in pur-
chasing a suitable memorial tablet con-
taining all the names of our citizens
dying in the service of our country.
This tablet to be placed in prominent
position in the library grounds. The
suggestion is a timely one and the
cause one which every citizen ought
to heartily endorse. If the work is
commenced now it will be much easier
to raise the funds gradually as peo-
pie are in the mood for contributing
to all worthy war causes, and much
more elegant memorial can be pur-
chased than if it is put off until the
war is over. All towns will have them
and Lamar should have one in which
all citizens will take pride.

NOW AS. .SURED 0F HONOR FLAG
Liberty Day Celebrated Yester- day Afternoon With Music, Speaking and the Selling of Liberty Bonds.

Although it will not mean much to some people of the city who have not purchased Liberty Bond, but it cer- tainly makes those of us who do own one feel proud of the fact that Pres colt is just as patriotic as any other town in the country in supporting the third Liberty Loan. Only six sub- scribers were lacking yesterday to make the required 2 1-2 per cent which the government asks of a town before it can claim an honor flag. So after brief talk by T. c. McRae and w. V. Tompkins an appeal was made for subscribers so that the required number could be reported to head quarters at once. Judge c. R. Haynie was called upon for a talk and re- sponded with one of the strongest and most forcefpl appeals yet made in this city, although his remarks were brief htey were very pointed and we dare say that his appeal alone sold a num- Der of the r subscriptions which were taken at the meeting. R. L. Blakely, county chairman of the War Savings committee addressed the crowd on the War Savings habit as a patriotic duty.
 A parade was formed composed of
 
 all the school children of the city, headed by the Prescott band. They marched two and two down East Elin street to the north door of the court house where the program was ren- dered. The children from the gram mar school sang Arkansas" which was followed by the popular schooI war song, Kaiser Bill" which
 brought forth prolonged applause Splendid selections were rendered al intervals by the band, Mir. McRae announced the fact that any township in the county may secure one of the flags by getting the required 1-G per cent of the population to sub- scribe for Liberty Bonds and from the figures being received by the commit tee, number of townships are mak. ing a strong effort to be among those present with a flag.

 General Radcliffe declared it was perfectly possible for the allies to ho,d on the Ypres sector even with ,hs Germans on Kemmel hill, but that :. vas not convenient to have them ,h.re and it was hoped to eject them.
 Al Kemmel hill, continued the gen .r.i the Germans gained 2,000 yards n 2 front of about 1,200 yards, in eluding the important tactical feature of the hill itself, which gives import ant observation over all the ground to the north.
 "On the Kemmel front the enemy has made considerable progress says a review of the situation in the west ern battle area, obtained from an authoritative source this afternoon. "The latest information is still incom- ulete. but there is no doubt that the Germans succeeded in occupying Kemmel hill, a sector involving both  French and British troops.
 There is nothing decisive about the loss of Kemmel hill, but it is one of the most important tactical fea- lures, as the hill is an observation point for all the ground to the north. It still remains to be seen, however, whether it will remain in the enemy's hands.
 "0ur line to the north is all right and it is entirely possible to hold on } to the Ypres sector, even if the enemy is on Kemmel. But his pres ence there is not convenient and we hope to get him off,"
 "0n the Kemmel front the enemy has made considerable progress" said General Radcliffe, in giving his first weekly talk on the western frsnt situ- ation today.
