MRS. JOHN c. SMALL
DIES SUDDENLY
WIFE OF FOUNDER OF PULAs-
KHAN EXPIRED SUNDAY MORN
iNG-REMAINS TAKEN TO
TULSA FOR BURIAL.

Hundreds of friends of the family
OF John G. Small were shocked on
Sunday morning to learn of the death
OF his beloved wife, Mrs. Maude e.
Small. Apparently in the best of
health on Saturday, the news of Mrs.
SmalFs death on Sunday was doubly
a shock to those with whom she was
intimately associated. AS one life
passed out, another came into the
world, and a son was left at the be-
| reaved home to comfort it in the DAYS
to come.
Funeral services were held Monday
afternoon at 5 o'clock at the Small
residence, 1924 State. street, Rev. l..
e. N. Hundley officiating. The remains
were then taken to Tulsa, Okla, where
Mrs. Smalls parents reside, for inter-
ment. Quite a large number of friends
of the family attended the services
in Little Rock, and the floral offerings
We're both numerous and elaborate
Miss Shields sang two solos during
the ceremony.
Mrs. John G. Small was a most low
able character. She was full of life
and every gathering which was graced
by her presence was soon aware of it.
Her home life was ideal, her devotion
to the family being SO marked that
1t was commented upon by those who
were intimate with Mr.. and Mrs.
Small Her lire was that of Chris
tian woman, and she took an active
part in church work on Pulaski
Heights, and in other parts of the city.
To have known Mrs. Small is to miss
her.
The deceased is survived by her
husband, John G. Small, founder of
| The Pulaskian, and now deputy Com
missioner of Mines, Manufactures and
Agriculture; three sons, John d..
Small, lieutenant in the Navy, and
now aboard destroyer in foreign
waters, James Small, and the infant
for whom she gave her life. Mr.. and
Mrs. T. c. Hughes, parents of Mrs.
Small, also survive her. They came
to Little Rock Monday morning, and
with Mr.. Small. accompanied the re-
mains to Tulsa.

RIJY YOUR AUTO
SUPPLIES EARLY
little ROCK TIRE, OIL, GAS AND
OTHER DEALERS HAVE RE-
sPoNDED TO NATIONS CALL
FOR CONSERVATION.

Don't run into Little Rock at night
ar ON Sunday and expect to get some
thing to go on your car, or to make
tbe government, which is preaching
The men engaged in the automo-
bile or. accessory business in Little
Rock have hearkened to the call of
the governmenet, which is preaching
conservation, and will after today,
close their places of business at z
o'clock each night, and not open at
all on Sunday or on national holidays.
Consequently word to the wise is
sufficient.
The government some time ago ap-
pealed to the automobile dealers of
the United States in an effort to con-
serve fuel, as well as to release a
class of mechanics that are in great
demand in eantonments and at the
front. where thousands of trucks need
repairs or drivers. The automobile
dealers took ahold of the proposition
and appealed to the patriotism of the
dealers and the accessory men all
over the country. They explained
that it was voluntary step, but that
if it was not taken the government
would later appoint commission to
make an investigation to see what ac-
ton was necessary to force it. The
dealers replied that they were suffi-
GENTLY patriotic to act merely upon
the suggestion of the government that
such a thing would be appreciated
For several weeks the automobile
dealers of Little Rock and vicinity
nave been closed at night, ON Sun
days and holidays. and they assisted
the accessory dealers to contribute
their mite to winning the war by
closing during the same hours and
days.
No matter what the emergency, I'M
less it is directly government busl-
ness, none of the dealers will open
their stores during the hours or days
they have decided to be closed.

As it goes passing by.
They howl, they wave their handker-

While others fight and die.
They cannot go to far off France,
