.A|RSHIP FALLS
 AT JONESbORO
And Machine Is Returned to Lonoke On Train, Visit To Newport
 Being Called Off.

At Jonesboro this morning the airplane in which Lieuts. H. H. Wal ter and Pennington were flying crashed to earth from a height or 150 feet, greatly damaging the machine, but not injuring the occu- pants, according to telephone mes sage from Jonesboro to the Chamber of Commerce here this afternoon.
 The accident made it impossible for the flyers to pay Newport visit this afternoon as was intended. The machine was so badly damaged that it had to be returned to Lonoke on train.
 All arrangements had been made here to receive the flyers this after noon. A white chalked cross had been marked in the Sanders field at the end of Walnut street, which would have directed the, aviators to this landing place.

 HAVE TIE 'FLU'
And While You Have It You Are Re quested by the Health Service
 To Stay At Home.
Do you have sneezine spells

Do you have sneezing spells
 And your bones ache?
 And you are languid and no ac- count?
 And you don't feel very well your self?
 Well, you have the "floo."
 And that is only the popular way of saying that you are afflicted with the Spanish influenza.
 You have lots of company, for it is epidemic over the state, not only in Arkansas, but all over the country.
 Congress this week appropriated one million dollars to assist the Pub lie Health Service in fighting the disease, and on October draftXtrmh 900 men was cancelled on account of it.
 The Spanish influenza is only la grippe in an acute phase, just as la grippe is a bad cold emphasized.
 There were 240 new cases reported in Little Rock yesterday, making about 500 known cases in the city.
 There are about 2,500 cases at Camp Pike, and there are many cases at Eberts Field, which is quarantined on account of it.
 The influenza itself sis not very se- rious, but it is liable to develop into bronchial pneumonia, which is likely to prove fatal, especially if the sys- tenn is badly run down and debili- tated.
 There is no reason for alarm if the people will be careful.
 The U. s. Public Health Service does not wish to take any drastic steps by closing moving picture houses, or churches, or stopping public gatherings, and does not con- sider it will be necessary with the proper cooperation. If you have the influenza, stay at home.
 Don't mix with crowds.
 Take care of yourself, and you will probably recover in five or six days. ss

SW|F TON TOTAL

 Has Been Busy.

The town of Swifton, and the pa- triotic people surrounding it, have proved themselves one hundred per cent American by coming forward today with volutary subscriptions to the Fourth Liberty Loan totaling $26,400. Not only has that commun- ity subscribed this amount voluntar- fly, but they have put the finishing touch to the matter by either paying in full, or the ten per cent required to meet the treasury department s requirement.. This comes pretty close to reaching that community $ quota, and the Independent congrat- ulates those having the matter in charge, since the above figures prove there have been no slackers on the job.

The men of England Scotland Ireland France Italy and Belgium are fighting they not on the farms The food production of these countries has therefore been greatly reduced. Even before the it was much less than the amount consumed The difference supplied by the United States Canada and other countries ncd- ing Russia, Roumana, South America, India and Aus traia The difference between production and consumption is now greater than and at the time food can no longer be obtained from most of the outside countries Therefore our associates in the of democracy depend upon North America for food they have depend ed before and they ask for it with right which they have never had before For today they our compan ions in great war against common enemy. For the present it is they who are doing the fighting the suffer- ing, the dying-n war.

JANUARY SILK SALE!

We are now preparing the greatest Janu- ary Silk Sale held in the history of thls institution. We are going to hold one for two reasons; first, because we consider it our patriotic duty, and second, because we are going after the silk business ln Birmingham as never before.
 In explanation of our above statement it is our patriotic duty,' we are reminded by our gov ernment that wool and cotton are both essen tials in the manufacture of clothing, bedding tents and other needed things for our army. We do not know of any army necessity for silk If silk is used it is used in such small quantities as to have no effect on the market But wool and cotton must be conserved and it is our patriotic duty to push silk all that we can. The more silks you buy and wear the more woolens and cotton will be left for the soldiers to wear.
 So that is why you can look to this store, begin ming next Monday, January 14th, for the great e aa ary Silk Sale ever held in it's history
