and is making war on the innocent

WE FELLOWS WHO STAY AT
HOME MUST Do OUR PART

If we do not realize the situation,
it is high time that we were getting
at it.
From the papers you saw that we
are to part with 100000 bushels Of
our wheat. The wheat which we had
to spare was gone the middle of last
December.
Now here is where we can do "just
a little bit" of our part. We must eat
corn instead of wheat, and we can do
it; furthermore, we can do without
wheat altogether if it comes to 8
SHOWDOWN.
For breakfast, there is nothing to
compare with cornmeal cakes; and
for dinner, egg bread (made with
cornmeaD is fit for a king.
Send US your order today for r.
pound bag of Chazal's famous Old
Fashion Cornmeal and begin to do
your part. The price is 60c., or SC.
per pound.

Gauntlet cuffs and "throw" or scarf collars are among the small innova- tions in coat styles that distinguish them from preceding seasons. Anoth- CT almost universal feature of new coats is some sort of definition at the waistline which may be either above or below the normal waistline and is oftenmost above. Nevertheless, many of the new coats achieve an almost straight silhouette. Bearing these three peculiarities in mind, it will not be at all hard to acquire an up-to-date coat, for spring styles show no radical departures from those of the winter.
 Although the throw is merely sup plement to the spring coat for wear on keen, chilly days, it may be made 8 style note full of charm. There is a knack in wearing it which all lies in adjusting it becomingly. Each of the two coats illustrated here Is provided with a throw and one of them Is fur ther favored with one phase of the gauntlet cuff Both are of wool velour, which has proved itself an ideal fabric for coats.
The Pulaskian., 1918-03-08

The model at the left is in beige color. It has straight panels down the front and rather wide girdle set in about the sides and back, defining long waistline. The skirt of the coat is shirred to the belt with scant fullness. The sleeves are roomy and finished with ample cuffs that are embellished with small buttons. There Is long. rolling shawl collar which may be fas- tened over the throat. The scarf hangs to the waistline and ends in large, soft tassels. It amounts to an ornament and is pictured with the throat un- covered and the ends hanging at each side of the coat.
 The coat at the left resorts to small box plaits in the back to provide the required fullness in its skirt. It chooses the high waistline and scarx in white with tasseled ends in dark taupe like the coat in color.

A shortage of trained nurses con- fronts the Red Cross and young high school and college women must save the day for the organization in this di- lemma. Even though these young wom- en have no expectation of following nursing as a life vocation they may benefit themselves and show their will ingness to help when help is badly needed by qualifying to do Red Cross work. The time spent in the nurses training schools of the country, and in actual nursing, will prove a lifelong as set-broaden the vision and sympa- thies and make better and less anxious mothers of the girls who undertake such training.

DISSENTING OPINION FILED
Conviction of Former Mayor Wright of Fort Smith Affirmed-Executive
 Fined and Removed From Office
 Because of Pre-EIection Promise.

Little Rock The Supreme Court denied the pe- tition filed by Attorney-General Ar buckle asking for rehearing in the bone-dry case.
 Justice Humphreys filed dissent ing opinion, stating that he did not differ on his colleagues on the canon of the construction of statutes, but did differ from them on the meaning of the bone-dry law, especially under the rules of construction invoked in the decision, reserving and remand ing the Rivard case for a new trial.
 Under the construction of the bone dry law as made by a majority of the court, liquor can be imported into the state for personal use.
 The court affirmed the conviction of former Mayor J. w Wright of Fort Smith, who was fined $50 and remov- ed from office because of a pre-elec- tion promise to use his influence to have the city commission elect John H. Vaughan city attorney, the consid- eration being the support of Barney Dunn, Frank Coffey and Jim Burke in Wright's campaign for the mayoralty of Fort Smith.
 The sentence of the same court, fin ing Mayor Wright $25O for nonfeas- ance in office for failure to quell the riot in the Bell Telephone strike of September g, 1917, and removing him from office. was reversed and re manded, the opinion Being handed down by Justice Hart and concerred by the entire court.
 The case was reversed because of the failure of the trial court to ex. clude the questions put to Grady Manning's answers to such questions, the questions relating to the where abouts of the mayor during the time rioters attempted to cut the gas con- nections on the streets.
