ROAD CONTRACTS LET TO
 FIRMS OUTSIDE STATE

Little Rock, July 12.-More road contractors are needed in Arkansas. Many of the larger contracts are be- ing let to construction companies from outside the state. Very often only one, two or three bids are offered, and it is not considered good policy to award contracts where there is only one bidder, although it is done. A Washington county district has been advertised twice, one of the larger projects of 50 miles, but there has been only one bid each time, and that by the same man. An effort is being made to hold the cost down to what is considered reasonable figure, and it is expected that another advertising will be ordered.
 Among the companless outside the state that have large contracts are the following: Lewis Rich Construction Go. of East St. Louis; Southern I'm provement Company of Chicago; New ell Construction Company of Birming- ham, and J. A. Burk of Gunnison, Miss.

TOday's Garden Lesson

For a small garden up to twenty by
fifty feet in size to be worked by man
power you need only a digging fork or
spade, a steel tooth rake and a hoe,
advises the National War Garden Com
mission. If the garden is plowed with a
team, you need only rake and hoe.
Make a measuring stick Of the hoe or
rake handle by marking marks 6. y, 1S.
"a, 80 and SO inches from the end and
use to measure the distance between
rows. Use two sticks and a stretched
string to lay off straight rows. Use
the end Of the hoe or rake handle or
the blade of the hoe to mark cut the
row along the string.
A larger garden can be handled with
a rake and hoe, but a wheel hoe or ga.-
den cultvator is very desirable and in a
| large garden is really necessary unless
horse cultivation is used. A. large gar
den needs a digging fork, spade and gar
den trowel. The one-piece iron trowel
Is strongest and best.
There are several other garden tools
| and the gardener must use his judg-
ment as to whether or not he buys them.
| Sometimes a second hoe-one of the
! pointed kinds useful in chasing the
| weeds among the plants.
If you want to have garden send
| to the editor of Woman's Page for the
| free garden manual printed by the Ma
| tional War Garden Commission. Send
two-cent stamp for return postaG~.
| The information contained in the little
book Is just what you want.

10 A. NJ, Who Loved and Lost

Maybe If you let this girl severely
alone now it will be possible for YOU to
win her later OH. Parents often take Il
prejudice to a young man and change
their minds about him afterward. The
thing to do in a case like this is to
prove to the parents that you are the
man for their daughter. You can prove
this by never doing anything that would
cause bad talk about you, and by work
ing hard to be n success in a business
way. This, too, will have its effect on
the girl when she is little older.
DO not try to see her without her par
ents' consent but some time after YOU
! have showed the mother and the father
and the girl that YOU can get along with
out her see If you cannot call at the
house once in while as a friend. DO
not make love. but simply be trends,
showering little attentions on the girl.
No doubt in time in this way you can
. win both the parents and the girl over.
In the meantime cheer up and go around
with other girls.

And So They Were Married

"The meeting is a small womens
club I belong to- and the talk IS on
The Woman OF Today and Tomorrow
My dear, vi has taken her A. NJ. since
we knew her. She's quite we'll known
among womens interests and helps 10
run a woman's magazine"
The meeting was held on the second
floor of an old-fashioned house. Two
'arge rooms were thrown into one, and
the women who gathered there were all
interesting and attractive. Ruth could
not help contrasting them with the
women who gathered at Fleta's, and
momentarily she forgot what good
time she was having and remembered
her other troubles.
When vi got up TO talk Ruth was
astounded at the change in her. Not
that she was less attractive, but there
was a marked lack of that somewhat
fragrant self-assertiveness that vi had
possessed in college. Instead she was
gracious, well-poised and she knew
what she was talking about. Almost
her first words were arresting.
"The woman of today who does not
realize that she must become the
woman of tomorrow, is not only standing
still. She is rapidly falling behind ether
women"
! The words were like a flaming torch
pointing the way toward the new
| womanhood and everything she said
afterward was just as poignant. Ruth's
attitude when she had entered the room
that afternoon had been one of amused
tolerance that vi was to speak. The
smugness of belonging to another world
than this had entered into her heart
in spite of herself. Ruth had not
progressed far enough to actually be-

MOT so long ago a reader, with her

hearts get sometimes, wrote to say
the world seemed to have turned it's
back on her. She had had a great
deal of trouble, and the trouble had
caused her to lose her health and to
become so thin and ola and sallow
looking that people avoided her. 1t
seems that trouble has more or less
sWamped this woman's life and she is
content to sit letting the depression
that comes after misfortune sweep
over her in waves.
