FISCAL COURT
HOLDS SESSION
A Bridge to be Built Over
Tradewater River
Other Notes

Crittenden County Fiscal Court
met Sept, 2. 1919, at 9 o'clock.
The usual orders were made and
the county claims audited and
allowed.
County Judge, K. l.. Moore,
reported his efforts in trying to
secure the issue of road bonds,
which the last fiscal Court di-
rected him to have issued, and
submitted prices obtained by him
which We're considered unsatis-
factory by the court, and he was
instructed to make further nego-
tlatlons and report at the Oc-
tober meeting of the court.
A bridge was ordered built
across Tradewater liver at
flshuap, not to cost more than
1000, to be paid Jointly by
this and Webster county, and
II is estimated that Crittenden
county's part will be 80 per
cent, and that of Webster,s will
be 81 per cent.
County Attorney, John A.
Moore and Esq. W. ID. brennan
were appointed a purchasing
committee, to cooperate with a
similar committee. to be appoint
ed by the Webster Fiscal Court,
to purchase and have erected
the bridge as soon as possible.
II is the opinion of some who
have investigated the matter
that said bridge can be built for
So, 600, but the Fiscal Court made
a liberal allowance in order that
the work might not be hindered
by the lack of funds.
There had been two site 81
suggested for the location of
the bridge, and J. +. Sullinger
and Esq. l.. T.. Waddel were APP
pointed some time ago by the
Crlttenden County Court to make
a survey and a plot of the two
proposed sites, and to make a
written report to this meeting of
the Fiscal Court of their findings
and to designate which location
they considered the most suit
able. This committee did its
work well. filing with the court
u splendid map and written re-
port and suggested to the court
that the one known as the lower
site was the most suitable for
the bridge. The Court adopting
the committees suggestion, ord /.
cred the bridge built IN what is |
known as the low er site.
County Road Engineer, +. j. |
Travis was ordered to buy a
strip of land from $. A. Asher
for the purpose of changing |
Rural Route No. | ON better
ground. Two hundred dollars |
was appropriated for the pur-
pose of paying for the land need |
ed, There was also an appro-
priation To pay for the necces-
sary fence.
The next meeting Of the fiS- |
cal Court will be Tuesday. Oct, |
7, 1919.

your efforts to make the papcS

Of the fire you were succeedine
along this line, and l feel SURE
with your energy and enterprls-
ing spirit you will put Marion and
Crittenden on the map. After
two disastrous fires it is to b
hoped that the people of Marion z
will make provision to combat
the third one. If you can't have
waterworks you can have chem
ical engines and organize
Volunteer Fire Dept. having !
a certain place to keel the en- Z
gine and have it charged and
ready for immediate action. You
now have a chemical engine but
l understand that it could not
be found during the fire.

AT THE LYRIC.

Castles in the Air" the brilliant
comedy romance of which May Ali
son IS the star, will he the feature at

In this lively appealing drama Miss
Allison enacts the role of Fortuna,
a poor but romantic girl who believes
that some day like the hcroines of the
romantic novels of which she is fond,
she will NETT a millionaire and have
all the happiness of her namesakc.
How she does meet the man of
wealth but how her own romance
comes from another and quite uneX-
pcrted quarter, are incidents which
go to make Il day of distinction and
charm. Fortuna is loyable little
character-a character of the kind in
which May Allison eXcells--and her
dreams and expectations, and her
eventual happiness, combine to
create a picture of winning appeal.
The clever star is surrounded by a

The production, which was directed
by Emmett J. Flynn, Is among the
most ambitions recently undertaken
by the Flying A." and reveals Miss

The story has to do with the amaz-

Upon her arrival she learns that her
cousin is the mother of baby and
that the husband had deserted them
two years before. she sets out to eff

with the wrong man. How she ulti-

and won by the deserter's cousin,

tale.
Miss Minter's performance as
"MarI; O'RourEe,' from the Land O
