WONDERFUL ART WORK
IS SHOWN IN PRINTING

One of the most artistic bits of
printing that has been shown in Lie
tie Rock for some time appears up
en- a folder issued by the Profitable
Farming Bureau of the Board oe
Commerce. advocating the early pick
ing of cotton. The folder bears two
illustrations, one a stalk of cotton
with unopened bolls The other is a
stalk with well developed and fully
opened bolls, showing the cotton
hanging downward. This cut brings
cut the most minute detail of the cot
ton stalk, and stands out so bold that
it can be seen and admired many
feet away. This remarkable folder is
the product of the H. G. Pugn Print
ing Company. Little Rock concern,
which is only adding more laurels to
those it has already achieved for
well executed printing.

saw EATS WAY
THROUGH ORDERS
NOTHING STOPS CIRCULAR SAW
IN PLANT OF ARKANSAS
FOUNDRY COMPANY.

The latest addition to the equip
1nent of the Arkansas Foundry Com
pany is a hot" saw for cutting into
fragments, If necessary, any sort Of
iron or steel, no matter what the
size. This saw goes through a II
inch Il" beam as though 1t was cut
ting up cord wood for country
hotel. Nothing stops it, no matter
how large, and builders in Little
Rock territory will reap the benefit
III their steel being cut to fit on
short notice.
This saw looks very much like any
circular saw, but the carriage upon
which the article to be cut in two is
placed is much more substantial than
If it was to handle logs. Aspray OF
water is constantly played upon the
saw as it enters the steel beam, thus
reducing to some extent the heat,
and prevents injury to saw or BEAM
The Arkansas Foundry Company is
completing a rather extensive con-
tract for the Southern Trust Com
pany. It supplied the steel for the
rev freight elevator shaft in this
building. The elevator is being put
Up in the court of the building, and
on what is now the outside. The
frame is entirely OF steel, and when
completed, will be enclosed with buff
brick to match the balance of the
building. The old elevator space will
be utilized for vault room
The Arkansas Company has also
secured The contract for supplying
Franks Laundry with the steel to be
used in its new building on Tenth
and Spring streets.

PRESIDENT SAYS THERE
MUST BE NO DELAYS

Paris, April 1.--What is construed
as warning that the world could not
long countenance further delay In the
adjuStment Of peace was delivered to
the allied Premlcrs and military rep
rcsentatives Of the associated powers
by President Wilson yesterday.
II was learned that at IL later ses-
sion on Monday he arose during the
conference taking place in Premier
7 IClemencenu'S room at the French War
Ofvce and sOemnly assured the con-
fereeS of his belief that they would
do all In their power TO bring together
the loose ends in the debate in an eff
fort 10 unite on peace terms upon
which the treaty might he presented
to Germany
1t is understood that the President
pointed out frankly the delays that
,.hnve occurred in the work Of pence
making He declared that the world
was awaiting the conclusion Of the
task Of the confereeS and thar 1t had
right to expect early results.
The Presidents appeal for an ex-
pedited effort followed II long session
In which there had been more than the
usual oratOry. 1t came at the close
day when financial experts had been
called before the President and the
PremierS. They had explained THE
different points Of view that had arisen
during the consideration of the cues
tlom Of reparaton. Military experts
likewise had been consulted ut length
regarding the disposition of the Saar
Valley, the left bank Of the Rhine, the
problem Of Dangig and other questions
In which strategic issues were involved,
President Wilson explained that he
was willing to accept his share Of
responsibility for the peace conference
delays. He was careful to point out
that the Sl0wness OF the negotiations
was not due to any single country or
its representatives. He declared em-
phatically. however, that the time for
talk was virtually finished and that
now was the time TO show results.
