Pensioners to Get
 100 Cents On Dollar

Each Confederate pensioner this year will receive $100 per capita .instead of $79, 25, the amount paid last year. accord ing to a statement made Mon- day morning by H. T. Brooks, clerk in charge of pensions in the auditors office.
 According to the figures con- piled by MT, Brooks, the pension roll contained S76 fewer names this year than it did last year, the decrease being caused by death and by failnre of the vet erans to avail themselves of the States bounty. It IS said that 65 veterans from Pulaski County alone failed to comply with the forms of the law There are ap- proxlmately 10. 300 pensioners in Arkansas and the sum to be divided during the present month will amount to $1, 035, 900.
 The Pension Board will meet Tuesday morning in the auditors office to canvass the situation.

To The Directors
 Of North Franklin

Most of the Districts of North Franklin have receive pledge cards for the Give a Bushel War Fund. but few districts have made full reports some have canvassed their districts and have not sent in their full report. We earnestly request that every district to do so at once: mail all cards direct to me at Ozark as l will have to total them and re- port to headquarters. After they have passed through my hands they will be left at The Peoples Bank where collections will be made. Let me urge up on you the importa nee of this work the people are willing to respond with their bushel if it is once presented to them, surely there isn't man or woman in North Franklin that will refuse to help raise a fundfor the bene- fit of our wounded and disabled soldiers. We are told by the boys who come back from over there that. they do not dread death but oftentimes in the trenches in the camp and in hospitals they discuss what will become of them should they be- come maimed, blinded or disabl- ed and return to take up the duties of evil life in competition with their more fortunate neigh bor. This fund is being raised for just this purpose. The people of America will not allow those disabled boys to return
 and for a living have to peddle pencils or shoestrings, perhaps on our streets. to a generation who have forgot their service, neither do we expect to crowd them be- hind cold walls of Old Soldiers Homes. but az is:their due re-es- stablish them in the vacations of peace that each is best fitted for. If there is man or a woman or child in North Frank lin County who does not love these boys then that person should not give a bushel. This is not a charity but rather an of fering for service rendered.
 Let me urge you again as directors to take up this work at once and as 8 people to res pond to this call.
