FATHER AT WAR,
TRAGEDY AT Home
Just What Home Service Means
to a Soldier.

The father kisses his wife and KID
dies goodby, shoulders his gun and
marches away to war.
For a time the current of life flows
smoothly for the soldiers little FAINT
". Then comes the tragedy. Mother
is taken Ill. The little brood of BROTH
ers and sisters is helpless. No father
to turn to. A helpless mother
To whom can the American soldiers
family look at this critical periodf
Must a brave mans loyalty to his
country mean desolation and suffering
to those nearest and dearest to him!
Mol Emphatically no! The Amcri-
can people will not permit the faml-
lies Of their soldiers and sailors 20
suffer because their breadwinners are
fighting for their country And so The
Red Cross Department of Civilian RE-
lief has created a nationwide orgnn-
ization for home service for the fami-
lies of soldiers and sailors.
Under the banner Of Home Serv-
ice" patriotic men and women have
enrolled and are devOting themselves
TO the noble task Of helping soldiers
families to meet and adjust The prob
lens of everyday life and aiding them
to maintain the standards OF health,
education and industry.

HOW TO HELP
 WIN THE WAR
George Ade Gives Advice to A. meiicans between the ages
 of Thirty and Fifty.

While the war is on, the active work in support of the boys at the front will be shouldered cheerfully by men and women little too old for aero batic service, but not yet frosted at the temples.
 They will supply part of the money and most of the pep needed to sup ply and encourage a huge army in the field
 It is for them to realize that we have passed the period of doubting aafAd question answering.
 We have come to the day when hustling must supplant conversation.
 In every community you will find a contrary-minded sediment of the hum an race-people who keep themselves somewhat in evidence by noisily de- nying facts which are self-evident to all of their ncighbors who happen to be in the full enjoyment of sanity.
 They are somewhat like frogs,i. e., they make an awful noise in propor- ton to their number.
 Now, if you will take the trouble to check up in your immediate neigh borhood the people who, from the be- ginning of the war, have been full of doubts and questions and false a. larms, you will find that they are few in number and of precious little importance, except as atmospheric disturbances.
 Also, did it ever occur to you:
 That the man who had bought most liberally Of Government bonds never questioned une safety of bis se-- curity.
 That the woman who was knitting the most socks and sweaters never believed the silly stories about the Ped Cross being crooked instit ution
 That the soldier boy about to board a transport and join his comrades of France and Great Britain never was known to doubt the sincerity of the men with whom he was soon to join shoulders?
 No, indeed!
 All the walls and misgivings and fish stories put into circulation by a few picayune outsiders who were just built to be obstructionists and some how can't help it.
 They are in a class with the Tories who feasted the aristocratic British officers while Washington's army

starved at Valley Forge. They are holdover of the Valland- ingham clan that reviled Lincoln and
 gave an underhanded, copperhead
 support to the cause of slavery, even
 afser it was doomed. They are the kind of people who oppose public improvements, will not
 buy tickets for the Chautauqua, crit
 icizs the minister if he smiles in pub- lie, and attach the presumption of guilt to any woman attacked by scandal.
 They are the small pores, the two by fours, the gnats, the sand flies,
 the ticks put on earth to teach good the quality of patience. The time has come to ignore them. If we cannot lock them for safe keeping, at least we can shut them out
 from our daily program and go ahead with the important work laid out for us.
 There is no time to waste precious hours and vocal energy in trying to
 prove that two and two make four,
 and water is wet, and the sun sets in the West, and the mad dog of Pruss-

PLANS COMPLETED
 FOR HIGHWAY
Commissioners Expect to Be Ab- ie to Begin Work on Road
 This Summer.

The North Arkansas Highway has been surveyed from Little Rock to Batesville and the State Highway Department has com pleted the plans, blue print and profile of the entire road. This would have cost about $25,OOO if done by paid engineers. But the commissioners have done the work with the aid of the State Highway Department at an ex- pense of only about $1, ,000 which has been paid by the various counties. This is one of the few districts ever organized that is practically ready for con- struction work where the Dis trict itself has not been out dollars expense.
 The U. s. Government has put up $67,500 for it's part of thecost of the road through h. dependence, Jackson and White Counties, and it is said that Put laski and Lonoke have money enough to build their part of the road.
 The great value of such road as this is plainly apparent to any thinking man and the benefits are too numerous to mention. The counties through which the road runs are as follows:
 Pulaski, IT miles cost $117,- 472.
 Jackson, 2S miles cost S45- 1O4.67.
 White, 5 miles cost S1oo,- 045.64.
 Lonoke, 12 miles cost $27,- 242.26.
 Independence, 34 miles cost $51 ,397.45.
 The Commissions met at New port last Friday to approve the plans and they expect to start active work on the road this summer.

By RUDYARD KIPLING

Once upon time, hundred
years ago, there was large and
highly organized community in In
dia that lived by assassination and
robbery. They were educated to it
from their infancy; they followed it
as Il profession, and it was also
their religion. They were called
Thugs. Their method was to dis
guise themselves as pilgrims, trav-
elers or merchants and to join with
parties of pilgrims, travellers and
merchants moving about India.
They got into the confidence of
their victims, found out what they
had on them and in due time-aft-
er weeks or months OF acquaint-
ance-they killed them by giving
them poisoned foods-sweetm
for choice-or by Strangling them
from behind, as they sat over the
lire OF an evening, with a knotted
towel or a specially prepared piece
oi rope. They then stripped the
corpse OF all vaulables, threw it
down 4 we'll or buried it and went
on 10 the next job. At last things
got 50 bad that the government OF
India had TO interfere. Like all
governments, it created depart
ment-the department OF Thuggce
to deal with the situation. In
like most departments, this depart
ment worked well, and after many
years OF tracking down and hang
ing up the actual murderers and I'M
prisoning their spies and confed-
crates, who included all ranks of
society, it put an end to the whole
business OF Thuggee.
Even now there are people in
England who find it hard TO real
ize that the Hun has been educat-
ed by the state from his birth to
look upon assassination and rob-
berry, embellished with every treach-
cry and abomination that the mind
OF man can laboriously think of, as
perfectly legitimate means to the
national ends of his country. He
is not shocked by these things. He
has been taught that it is his bust
ness to perform them, his duty to
support them and his religion to
justify them. They are, and for
long time past have been, as legit-
innate in his eyes as the ballot in
ours.
This, remember, was as true OF |
he German i'll l9l4 as it is now.
People who have been brought up
o make organized evil in every
orm their supreme god because
