To the Citizens of Pine
 Bluff and Jefferson County:

Beg to advise that our $1,000.00 subscription is growing each and every day, and our committees are now actively at work on this fund and we trust that everybody will take up just as little of their time as it is possible as you know, these ladies and gentlemen are giving up their time, without compensation, and donating it to this work.
 There has been some criticism about the sign that is being erected at the corner of Second and Main, which we are unable to understand. Some few people think that this IS advertising the large subscribers to the deteriment of the small investor. We dwish to assure each and every one that this is not the intention of this sign The small investor, as a rule, is governed largely by what the financial people of community do in reference to making an investment
 How could we expect a man to in vest $10000 that knows nothing about the financial condition of the. coun- try, unless he knows that the fellow who is in position to do so, invests in this same security? There are Q g being carried around by the small in- vestors who would be only too glad to make an investment of their money if they were assured that the peO- plei who are in this line of business were anxious to make an investment of this kind but we cannot expect them to put in their small savings unless the large investor shows to them beyond a question of doubt that he is making the same kind of in vestment.
 Our government no doubt had in mind when they originated the idea of the War Savings Stamp to put something on the market thath was just little bit better than the Liber- ty bond, in order that the small in- vestor might have little greater re- turns on his capital than the fellow have a little greater returns on his who invested in the Liberty bond, and this they have succeeded in doing.
 Pine Bluff and Jefferson county are not so large but what everyone knows the man who Is able to make an in- vestment in these War Savings Stamps up to the limited amount of $1 100000. Can you expect the fellow who can invest $100.00 to make this investment unless your name is on this sign to show him beyond a ques- tion of doubt that you are investing in the same security in which you are asking him to make an investment in?
 Think this mater over carefully, and do not allow the fellow with small means and who is not financial able to invest $1,0OO.00 meet you on the street and know that you have nor done so, because he will certainly have the opportunity of knowing that you have or that you have not.

dropped her head back on the red
cushion. "Hello, John!" she greeted
tonelessly.
John grinned, embarrassed between
his pleasure at seeing Billy Louise and
his pity for her trouble. His white
teeth showed little under his scraggy,
breath.frosted mustache.
Hello! You got back, hey? She's
purity cold again. Seems like it's goin'
storm some more" He pulled off his
mittens and tugged at the Ice dangling
at the corners Of his lips. "You come
on stage, hey? bet you freeze" He
went over and stood with his back to
the fire, his leathery brown hands
clasped behind him, his face still un-
decided as to the most suitable emotion
to reveal "Well, how you like town,

Louise bit her lips against sudden
impulse to tears. It was not Ward.
but the crude sympathy Of this old
lalfbreed was more to her than all
the expensive flowers that had been
stacked upon mommie's coffin.
She picked up the two letters she
had written Ward, brushed or the dust
and eyed them hesitatingly. 1t GER
tainly was queer that Ward had not
ridden down for some word from her.
She hesitated, then threw the thin let
ter into the fire. Its message was no
longer of urgent, poignant need. Billy
Louise drew q long breath when the
grief laden lines crumbled quickly and
went flying up the wide throat Of the
chimney. The other letter she pinched
between her thumbs and fingers. She
smiled little to herself. Ward would
like to get that. She had a swift vision
of him standing over there by the WIN
dow and reading it with those swift,
shutting glances. She remembered
how she had begun it-"Brave Bucka-
roo"-and her cheeks turned pink. He
should have it when he came. Some
thing had kept him away. He would
rome Just as soon as he could. She
laid the letter back upon the mantel
and set a china cow on it to keep 1t
safe there. Then she turned brightly
and began to set the table for Phoebe
and John and herself and came pear
setting fourth place for Ward, she
was so sure he would come as soon as
he could. Mommie used to say that
If you set place for q person that
person would come and eat with you
in spirit II not In reality.
Phoebe glanced at her pityingly when
she saw her hesitating with the fourth
plate in her hands. Phoebe thought
that Billy Louise had unconsciously
brought it for mommie. Phoebe did
not know that love is stronger even
than grief, for at THAT moment Bully
Louise was not thinking Of momlnie
at al.

Flower Tones.

We hear more and more about the
form and color of musical sounds and
tone combinations. First thing you
know we will all be seeing Olusic in
stead Of hearing It, and the critics
will be writing about Winkemfunk' s
symphony in blue and FlingemosIky's
purple sonatas, says the Los Angeles
Times. Great pianists will hurl noun
tains Of floral beauty Mt their audi.
ences, and the master violinist will
watt sweet lilies and lilacs Of sound
across the footllghts. Birds will cease
to MARBLE and will start to painting.
The skylark's note will become a cord
of gold connecting earth and heaven
and the poet will refer to the mocking-
birds medley MS an exquisite rainbow
Of song.

Those Who Lead.

Some men never have to fight the
battles Of coming to their own. They
have the same foes to meet; but they
never seem to doubt their right to rule.
Others begin ns children but seem to
lose faith In themselves while getting
an education. There seems to be some
thing In our school system that makes
men Of letters hut robs them Of their
independence Of thought and assertion,
observes m educator. It produces low
able dispositions but units them for
executive position. It's a fact to be
regretted. Other things being equal,
they should be the best fitted to lead.
They have the polish and the culture.
and the less carefully trained lead
them. There nre exceptions to the
rule, but 1t Is sufficiently true to be dis
tressing.

upon this very crisis in her life. But
whenever she had tried to think what
it would be like she had always pic
tured Ward beside her. shielding her
from dreary details and tightening her
burden with bis whimsical gentleness.
She had felt sure that Ward would
ride down every week for news Of her,
and she had expected to ind him there
Billy Louise should come or send for

Whatever could be the matter7 Had
he left the country?
Billy Louise's faith. had compromised
definitely with her doubts Of him.
Guilty or innocent, she would be his
friend always. That was the condition
her faith had laid down challengjngly
before her doubts. But unless he were
innocent and proved it to her she
would never marry him, no matter
how much she loved him. That was
the concession her faith had made to
her doubts.
Billy Louise had a wise little brain
for all she idealized life and her sur.
roundings out Of all proportion to real
ity. She told herself that If she mar
ried Ward with her doubts alive her
misery would be far greater than If
she gave him up, except as friend.
Of course her ideals stepped in there
with an impracticable compromise.
She brought back the Ward Warren Of
her pretend" life. She dreamed Of
him as Z mutely adoring friend who
stood and worshiped her from afar
and because Of his sins could not cross
the line of friendship.

could build long, lovely scenes where

dreamed it with her eyes open.
