ADVERTISING COMMENT
By J. w. ANDREW

Recently considerably information has been scattered broadcast over the United States on the intrinsic value of newspaper advertising.
 What appears of unusual interest IS that issued by MT. Wm. H. kankln, chairman Newspaper division, A. A. A. A., Chicago, H., when he said Tn part:
 "A quarter page advertisement In a newspaper always attracts atten- tion. A full page arvertisement Tn a newspaper compels attention-lt can [ be "buried."
 "All advertisers are striving to- day to dominate in particular med iums, but there is no way that can dominate nationally in national ad- vertising so we'll as to dominate Tn national advertising in national newspapers as we'll as in local news papers. , "The recent work done by advertis- ing men, first for the Red Cross, then for Smilage, and for the Liberty Loan. and for the IS to 45' Draft, has taught business men that the new, big, thing in advertising-that is, the dominant plan" to reach masses of people is full page advertisement in the daily newspapers" To our local retail merchants l deem this of extraordinary value in that it convinces us that national advertisers will, eventually, resort t1 the daily newspapers with view of placing their goods before /he pub lic-the people of Pine Bluff in fact, and what could be more opportune time to begin systematic campaign of advertising as far as~your particu- lar business is concerned.
 Bring your place of business pro- minently and favorable before these people, then you will more easily be in position to follow up the interest created by the advertising of national institutions.

Educate Negroes
 in South, Advises Bishop J. M. Conner

Little Rock, Aug. Bishop
 James M. Conner, of the African
 Methodist church, has very pronounce
 ed ideas about the proper relation
 ship between the white and black
 races in the South, and so logical are
 they that prominent Little Rock
 business men have volunteered to see that his ideas are given thorough trial.
 2 According to Bishop Conner the negro should not have to go to north ern states for higher education, but that Arkansas should supply oppor- tunities for her negroes to secure advanced learning in this state. Bishop Connor points out that many negroes are ambitious and are going to secure an education beyond that provided by the negro schools of the state. These young people are forced to go north where they are granted equal privileges with whites, and the majority return to the South after completing their education, to be chaffed by the return to segregat- ed life. It is these negroes that cause race troubles in the South, when there are any, and when they go North the South loses good wage earners.
 'The white people of Arkansas should supply agricultural and me- chanical schools sufficient to give the negroes of this state vocational training" states Bishop Conner. "They should be taught trades and modern and scientific agriculture. The state has no adequate school to teach these things. They should be taught by real Southern negroes too, and if given the proper financial support, we will give these advant- ages to all negroes who apply at Shorter college, which has been sup ported for a number of years by our church. We don't want northern money, nor do we want northern in- fluences. We want to educate Ar kansas negroes in Arkansas, and turn them out unspoiled by the al- legged freedom of the north"

GOOD NEWS, INDEED.

The news dispatches tell us that the Arkansas Natural Gas company has brought in an oil well on some of it's land holdings in the Louisiana field. This probably is good news to the stockholders of the gas com- pany, but lot of Pine Bluff folk would be more gratified to learn that the gas company had brought in another gasser and purposed pro- viding facilities to deliver the gas to Pine Bluff in sufficient quantities when it is needed.

WOMEN'S VOTE ABSORBED.

Those who professed to see in wo- mans suffrage danger of wom~ an-ruled country must now be con- vinced of their error
 In the great number of women votes which will count in the future there will be a certain number of democratic votes and a certain num- Der of republican. The women will vote as the men voted; they will line up with one party or another; this faction or that.
 Additional proof of this is seen in recent statements by women leaders. Mrs. Medill Mccormick of Chicago is out with an urgent appeal to all women to support the republican party. Another woman in North Carolina is out with an appeal to all women, regardless of sectionalism, to support President Wilson, the democratic party and the league. Neither, of course, can control. At the polls there would be certain number of women who would vote the way Mrs. Mccormick urges; there also would be a large number who would vote, on the lines advocated by the Southern woman.
 Granting the vote to the women merely means that the strength of the republican and democratic par ties has increased in proportion to the man strength of each.

To Rid Lake Village
 of Malarial Fever

Little Rock, Aug. 12.-W. A. Bryce Delaney of Jersey City, N. J., sani- tary engineer arrived here today for a conference with Dr.. c. G. Garrison, state health officer, before going to Lake Village to undertake work look ing to the elimination of malarial fe- yer. He will cooperate with Dr. H. A. Taylor of the United States public health service, and Sol Pincus of Washington, also of the public health service.
 MT. Delaney and his father have been in charge of anti-malaria work in New Jersey for years, and have eliminated the mosquito-the malaria carrier-from 11,000 acres of march land. He is confident that Lake Vil- lage and other communities can be entirely rid of the mosquito and malarial fever.

 of 1l9,393 Men

Mexico City, Aug 12.-The strength of the Mexican army is placed at 17,725 officers and 119,393 men in an article recently published by Captain Francisco Lazcano who is referred to by the newspapers here as being in a position to speak with accuracy.

 There are, however, 16,461 gener- als, chiefs and subordinate officers who are serving temporarily.

"lN OUR MIDST"

The first of the foreign noblemen to visit America's shores since the war arrived yesterday. He is the Prince of Wales, described in dis patches as Edward Albert Christian George Andrew Patrick David Wind- sor, a splendid swimmer and dancer, an inveterate carrier of cane Ire gardless of weather conditions) and very fond of animals"
 The description does him an in- justice, for, as matter of fact the heir to the thrown of England was an English soldier and is very democratic young man.
 Unless he fails to live up to his past record the Prince of Wales will impress Americans favorably; there is no snobbishness about him, no pre- tension, nor aloofness. If he ever had any in his make up the war took it out of him.
 And while he is impressing Ameri- cans favorably it will be interesting to note how Americans impress him. If he meets the representatives of the great mass of American people, if he meets our leaders in government, business and industry, it goes with out saying that he will return to England with very favorable i'm pression. But if social leaders suc- ceed in corralling him, his ideas of America cannot help but be bad for us. There is no place in the world where titles are made so much of as among certain class of Americans. No crowd of fawning court favor ties in Europe can raise more fuss over titled foreigner than certain of our Eastern men and women. 1t is to be hoped that the Prince Of Wales will see America first before he is monopolized by class which is small and far from representa- tive.

RESUME ENROPEAN TRAINS.

Nish, Serbia, Aug. Through railroad service from Paris to Bel grade, Constantinople and Athens is expected to be established about the middle of August. The railway from Semendria, on the Danube, to Nish, which was destroyed by Austrians and Germans, has been reconstruct ed. From Nish to Saloniki the rail- way was repaired some weeks ago. To complete the through line from Constantinople to Paris it is now only necessary to repair the partly destroyed bridgeover the Save river at Belgrade.

meeting of that alert and aggressive organization has passed without defi- mite steps toward completion of the undertaking, many are beginning to wonder if the Rotary club-like many another organization-has become more of starter than finisher. A public park is one of the city's great est needs, and the need will increase with the years and the growth of the city.
 Go to it, Rotarians, provide park, and future generations will be grate- full

Germans are blacklisting those frauleins who go with American sol- diers. Now if we can blacklist all Americans who go with the German girls we'll match the Teuton in gen. erosity and make things better all around.

Nine tenths of the time of labor leaders is devoted to sitting on the lid, says A. B. Garretson, former head of the Conductors order; and it seems that the other tenth, of late, has been devoted to telling congressman all about it.

After the Muskogee business men have walked the policemen's beat for a day or so they'll probably tell the mayor to go ahead and give the guardians of the law the increase they are after.

Senator Reed heard from home Monday when constituents asked him to change his position on the league. The message probably will be couched in stronger terms at the next election.
