WILL PROCEED WITH
 CONSTRUCTION WORK

The Little Rock Real Estate bureau, Little Rock, Ark, has raised funo, subscribed by real estate, lumber, plumb ing, electric, bank and other interests, including building and loan associations, to a total of $50 month, according to Secretary NJ. E. Mccoy 'to be spent for a period of six months in the local pa pers for confidence building publicity. We believe he continues, that home ownership for every individual should be made the outstanding field in every com munity, and this campaign is primarily to promote home, farm and business own ership in every city and town in Arkan- Sas and among tenant farmers of Arkan- sas.
 Mr Mccoy also directs attention to an article in the Arkansas Gazette of Lit tie Rock, December P, and especially to an advertisement on the same page, which he notes as being in line with the Manufacturers Records suggestion that ir dividuals and communities should inn mediately proceed with all kinds of con- struction work, it being held that the surplus labor being released from war activities should be given employment. Among other things, this advertisement contains the following pregnant sentence: we can LOOK to the future With 1ull assurance and confidence that the same mighty force that saved to us the things we hold most sacred can and will solve the problems that will arise in connec-
 tion with the reconstruction period We have just returned from the nortf where Si0,0O0 in machinery donations was secured.
 .So far, we have met with nothing but the finest spirit of cooperation all along l the line We have gotten large dona-
 tions or concessions from everyone.

The year 1919 is too young to witness any large degree of mercantile or indus trial activity. January is the time for stock taking and is always the dullest month of the year. But the outlook for abounding prosperity later on which has been rema rked for sometime past, in un- changed. If anything it grows brighter and brighter.
