ARKANSAS NOTES


 An old resident of Lake Village seeks to correct the impression that Lake Chicot was lower this summer than ever before and that the drouth in Chicot county was a record break CT. He points to the fact that in 1896 there was no rain in Chicot county from the 28th day of April until the 3Oth day of August, and after that rain there was not another until the 23rd day of December. The lake at that time was much lower than at any time this summer.
 It is probable landing fields for air planes will be prepared at Malvern and Hope Both towns have receiv- ed from representatives of the war department rules for laying out fields.

Campaiqn of the American Red
 Cross for 5000 Tons of Clothing
 The official week of this campaign is September 2S to 30.
 Lee county's quota is two thous- and pounds of clothing.
 Mrs. M. E. Newborn has been ap- pointed chairman of this campaign for Lee county.
 Back of the German wall that has hemmed in Belgium and part or Northern France, ten million humans l6ok to us for clothing as we'll as for food. We, who are well clothed, can hardly appreciate in what dire need these people are for lack of necessities. Stocks of clothing and raw material are long since exhaust ed. There are no imports other than those the Commission for Relief in Belgium has been permitted to make. and these never have been sufficient. The world is now short of both clothing and raw material,
  purchase what is needed.
 Herbert Hoover says: "The ten million. imprisoned people in occupied Belgium and France are facing shame, suffering, disease and some of them death for lack of clothing this winter. They must be helped. I hope that the Red Cross will un- dertake a renewed campaign to ob- tain this clothing in America. It can only come from us. Your flrst campaign yielded magnificent results, bringing in fully 1000 tons of cloth ing in good condition But much more is needed if these war ravaged people are to get through the winter in decency and safety. In the face of brutal coercion and spiritual suf- fering they remain splendidly cour- ageous. This courage challenges our charity. Let us match the courage of Belgium by the generosity of America"
