peace tomorrow il she accepts them" said
she British Premier Lloyd George, in an
address in review of American troops.
He said that the arrival of one million
American troops in France had>made the

pacific to fight and that the part they
were now paying in the was was tre-

The premier reiterated that the Allies
do not covet one yard of German sol nor
wish to deprive the German people of
their legitimate rights.
''The kaiser has gonef rom folly to folly

It is with deep regret that we are called upon to chronicle the death of Mrs. Gala Smith, which occurred at 2:30 o'clock this morning, after a brief illness with pneumonia. Mrs Smith was an old citizen of Malvern and was loved and honored by all who knew her. She was a conscientious member of the Methodist church, and Is known and loved by her friends and neighbors for her many noble traits of character.

Adams, of New Sibe- ria, La, Mrs. Douglas Wallace, of Eli, Nevada; Kennon Smith, of Jeffer- son, Tenn; Alston Smith, of Alexander La, and County Assessor Hershael Smith, of this city.

ROY R. CHAMBERLAIN
 FOR CIRCUIT CLERK

Today we present to our readers, the formal announcement of Roy R. Cham berlain, as candidate for reelection to the office of Circuit and Chancery Clerk of Hot Spring county, subject to the May Democratic primary.
 Mr. Chamberlain is seeking his se- cond term, and as he has made good during his first term, he should, by all means, be reelected, without opposi- tion, which he no doubt will.
 He invites careful investigation in- to the affairs of his office, and assures the voters, that should he be honored by them for a second term, he will give the same careful and painstaking ef- | forts to the duties of the office during his second term, that he has since he entered upon the duties of the office. Roy Chamberlain is known to prob ably large majority of the voters of the county, and certainly, needs no in troduction at our hands He is entirely qualified to perform the duties of the office and his records will prove that the business of the county which has been entrusted to his care, has been properly and carefully attended to-.
 He is faithful worker, and believes in doing, and does his work we'll, but Is never too busy to attend the wants of those who enter his office, no matter how small or how large they may be, if in his power to do so, and by his eour teous and affable manner has won many new friends, who will gladly give him their endorsement for the office again, as the experience he has gained will only add to his qualifications to creditably fill the office another term.
 He greatly appreciates the support his friends have given him in the past, and will doubly appreciate your ef- forts in his behalf during this cam paign.
 If you believe in the old democratic precedent of giving good democrat second term, where he has made good in his first, you will no doubt favorabls consider Mr. Chamberlainss claims for reelection, and go to the polls and vote for him in the coming primary
 It is with great pleasure that we present bis name to the Democratic voters of Hot Spring county, and urge that his candidacy be given your most favorable consideration.

ing to it's inability to shorten its
line and produce fresh reserves.
1t is pointed out that German
casualties this year amount TO
800. 600, of which a million are
permanent casualties. Last March
Germany had so fresh reserve di-
visions which meant divisions
which had not been in line for a
month. Now the German reserve
consists of so divisions, only seven
Of which have had as much as
fortnights rest and none as much
as a month, which is considered the
minimum for an efficient force. Ger
man divisions now are appearing on
the firing line with many hundreds

OF $3.50.
On Oct. , regiments in 40 or 80
divisions were reduced from
four company to a three company
basis. Many of the youths of the
1920 class which the Germans wish
ed to hold to the spring now are
in the field This IS Germany's last
manpower hope.
II is calculated that Germany
had $4,000 guns on July Is. of
which a third has been lost. The
number of guns and batteries has
been reduced for some batteries
