More Fish in Place of Meat.

The banquet which is ovcrelaborate
and which is Il meal served in addition
to the necessary daily meals or which
uses foods that our government asks
US To conserve has no place in the
wartime program. Yet there are Oc-
casions, according to the United States
department of agriculture, when the
war activities may be helped by hay
ing those Interested in kindred sub
jects gather at meal, SO why not
have n dinner, or""banguct," il you
choose to dignity it by that name,
which takes the place of "a regular
meal? Such neal win serve to get
people together and at the same time
may teach Il real lesson I'M food con-
servatiOn.
Not long ago the students at the
New York State College Of Agriculture
were confronted with the problem Of
whether they should forego their an
nual banquet or whether they should
make it wartime meal. They decid-
ed upOn the latter course, and it
turned out to be one OF the most sue
ccssful gatherings they had had. AS
one Of the speakers expressed it, the
meal not only served the purpose OF
calling attention to the possibilities Of
serving dinner while adhering strict
ly to food regulations, but the ban
quctcrs themselves were immeasur-
ably better off and would feel better
next day because of the simplicity of
the food served. ,..
The Part Women Play.
No one has aIm0re important part
tn play In Bringing about this BAN
quet reform than women, since they
are very often charged with the duty
of providing the meal, especially in
connection with meetings held in
churches and similar community cen.

WOMEN SHOULD PAY
 POLL TAX AND VOTE
Patriotic Duty of Arkansas Wo- men to Exercise Right of
 Primary Suffrage

Among other obligations that have come to the women of Arkansas since our entrance into the Great War, that of suffrage is the most important. For it is an obligation no less than a right and a privilege, and every woman in the state is urged to consider it from that viewpoint.
 There are a few easily un- derstood facts that should ap- peal to these thousnds of new voters in Arkansas:
 According the ruling of At torney-GeneraI ArbuckIe, wo- men otherwise qualified may pay their poll-taXes, without penalty, up to the day of cleo tion, to vote in the primary el- ection of May 28.
 Poll-taxes for this year may be paid without penalty up to July l, which will qualify for subsequent primaries, which usually begin with Little Rock in December.
 It has been held by the At torney-General that Arkansas soldiers outside the state can not vote in Arkansas elections as the nonresident voters act applies only to electors away from home but inside the con fines of the state. This will de- prive the state#of thosands of voters.
 Arkansas is one of the seven states where aliens are permit ted to yote-it is expected this will be remedied by the next Legislature as 1t has been done recently by the Texas Legisla- ture.
 These two facts are further reasons why every woman in Arkansas should esteem it her patriotic duty to pay her poll tax and cast her vote in the en- suing primaries that loyal Am ericanism may have strong and dependable ally in main taining the balance of power.

MARVIN POLSTON

My heart was made sad, Wedensday morning, April IT, when l was told that Marvin Polston, one of my pupils had passed away the night before
 This was not anly a shock to me but the whole community was profoundly shocked, for Marvin was at school the day before, and well.
 Marvin had Whooping cough sometime ago and still cough ed a great deal at times. Fol lowing one of these coughing spells, after supper Tuesday night, Marvin took suddenly i'll with something like a conges- tive chill which took him away in few hours.
 Marvin was ten years of age and in the fourth grade at school. He was one of the best boys 1 have ever had in my care at school. He was bright and always ready to do what he was told. He was always among the first to pre- pare his part of our programs and on his last day at school recited we'll his recitation for our closing program.
 Marvin was loved by all his playmates and they miss him at play and we all miss him in the school room. Marvin was energetic and very hepful at home. He was member of of the Agricultural club. This showed his willingness to help his family and his country.
 We will miss Marvin in the Sunday School for he was regular attendent. He was al- so a member of the Methodist church, having been converted and united with the church in August 1917.
 Though our hearts are made sad when we look at his vacant seat at school and at Sunday school, we won't miss him like his loved ones at home. Marvin was the oldest child of MT. and and Mrs. w. E. Polston and the first to be claimed by death in that family.
 It is hard to understand why Marvin should be taken so young, but if God so wills we must be submissive. Marvin is now filling his place in that great home and great school above, where he will wait for his yong friends, relatievs, par ents, one brother and three sis ters.
 Marvin was laid to rest in the presence of a host of sor- rowing friends and relatives, at Hopewell cemetery. His little grave was nearly covered by pretty flowers, gathered mostly by his boy friends.
