Not Too Large for Small Busines,
The Newark journal., 1918-03-07

The members of the boys corn clubs and the girls can ming clubs should be actively at work these days, that the en- thusiasm may not be permitted to wane in the slightest degree. The work of these agencies never counted for so much as they will during the coming season. The great urgency of food conservation during the coming year opens a field for these organizations never be- fore offered them. Heretofore their work has been largely a matter of pride in superior achievement for achievements s sake. Now there is the added incentive that every gain eff fected counts in the final win ming of the war. Each worker has the full knowledge that his or her individual efforts are not only appreciated but urgently needed. This should spur them to the effort to dis count all former records. The young people of the land are exhibiting a splendid patriot ism, and they may rest assured it is appreciated to the full by their elders.

awaiting the governors sigma ture. This however, was of no avail and the bill was sign- ed and became a law.
 A similar law creating a road district from Little Rock to Louisiana was carried through the supreme court and stood the test. The U. s. War Department recently declared the road a military necessity and the government will aid in pushing construction of he road.
 The North Arkansas High way has been surveyed from Little Rock to Batesville and the State Highway Depart ment has completed the plans, blue print and profile of the entire road. This would have cost about $25,000 if done by paid engineers. But the com missioners have done the work with the aid of the State High way Department at an expen- SC 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 construction work where the district itself has not been out a dollars expense.
 The U. s. Government has put up $67,500 for it's part of the cost of the road through Independence, Jackson and White counties, and it is said that Pulaski and Lonoke have money enough to build all their part of the road.
 The following letter to Mr. Raney, Independence county's member of the North Arkan- sas Highway Commission shows that the matter is now up to the various county judg- es for their approval.

The commissioners and coun- ty judges of the various coun- ties through which the road will pass, will have a meeting at Newport today for the final approval of the plans.
 MT. Raney states that the commissioners expect to be able to begin work on the road the coming summer. It is their plan to clear, ditch and grade the road and put on enough gravel this year to protect the road and then complete the work next year. Through Big Bottom and Oil Trough it will be necessary to put down a foundation of flat rock eight or ten inches thick and cover this with a coating of gravel or crushed rock. It is planned to secure these flat foundation stones from the cull slabs at the Pfeiffer Quarry near Bates vile which it is said can be done at small cost.
 The entire length of the road through Independence county is to be graded and sur faced with gravel or crushed stone.
 The great value of such a road as this is plainly apparent to any thinking man and the

Hon. T. J. Raney of Newark who was in Little Rock at that time as a member of the State Charity Board, had a bill drawn by the we'll known law firm of Rose, Hemingway, Cantrell < Lou ghborough forming a road dis trict from Little Rock to Bates vile and Mammoth Spring. This was only ten days before the legislature adjourned and MT. Raney took the bill to Senator w. o. Edmondson who intro duced it in the Senate and se- ured its immediate passage by the senate.
 When the bill reached the House, a number of difficulties were encountered, among them being opposition by the repre- sentatives from Pulaski, Lo- noke, and White counties who launched a fight upon the bill. MT. Raney went to the Little Rock Board of Trade and se- cured the cooperation of that organization which resulted in
 lining up the Pulaski county
 delegation for the bill. The
 matter was then taken up with
 the business men of Searcy
 which resulted in a train load
 of the leading citizens of that
 town going to Little Rock and
 lining up the White county representatives for the bill.
 This resulted in giving the Lo- noke county delegation the same thing that Teddy got at the Republican National Con- vention at Chicago in 1912 and the bill passed by large ma- jority.
