The uprising in Montenegro seems
likely to bring to a head the long smol-.
dertng differences between the Monte

Nicholas has never recognized the va

has continued TO maintain the old royal
Montenegrin government with its seat
In suburb of Paris.
Serbia Ia insstent upon the adhesion
OF Montenegro to Jugo-Slavia, and
claims that a majority OF the Montene-
grins favor the union. The contention
OF the nationalist party in Montenegro,
however is that the Montenegrin ma

pro -Serbians, making the action Of that
body In voting last April for adhesion
to the Jugo-Slay state not truly repre-

WHO WANTS BETTER EVIL DENCE THAN THIS? ARKANSAS IS UNDERGOING
 A REAL BUILDING BOOM.

The evidences of it are on ev- cry hand, and if you cannot see them, then there is something the matter with your eyes. You may not travel to the four cor ners of the State to see what is
 being done, but the papers tel you of it, and occasionally yoa get around to where there are builders supply men assembled,
 and it takes a dull person to
 hear them talk without realiz- ing that Arkansas is growing. Where these people come from, who are erecting all these new houses is immaterial. They come, and bring with them the appetite which must be satisfied, and they must have clothes, so they become a part of the great mass of consumers in the State who look to Little Rock as their source of supply. The mills are turning out the lumber to house them, and the supply men are putting this lumber together. We are also doing our part to clothe and feed the multitude. The influx of immigration to Ar kansas is noticeable first on our books, and we do not have to be told about the building that is going on to realize it. But Lit tie Rock is not alone called on to supply the necessities of life for the new corners; we have building experts who are called to the remotest parts of the State to help out, and never once has it proven a bad bargain. They are ready to help all who want their services, and our ad- vice is to call for them.

The value of trades excursions which take the manufacturers and iobbers of a community away from inc cares of business for a day, and rlace them for the time being, among the peopel who sell their goods, was again very favorably demonstrated last Wednesday when the Little Rock lusipess men visited points on the Rock Island between Little Rock and Brinkley, on the Cotton Belt be- tween Brinkley and Altheimer, ana the branch of the same railroad be- tween Altheimer and this city.
 Considered rom every angle this trip was a success. It was a success from personal standpoint, from business standpoint, and surely it was d success from a social one. Even an all afternoon rain did not really interfere with the festivities, for well paved streets in the towns visited made it pleasant under foot, and when one of the excursionsists had any place to go, there was usual iy an automobile at his disposal.
 This Is the first of a series of ex- cursions that will be given by the manufacturers and jobbers unless the Railroad Administration yetoes the proposition. There is an order out against such excursions, but when they are for only day, and several railroads are to be used for the jour- ney, these railroads can pool the equipment and supply it. without in any way crippling the regular train service or, what is more important, the movement of troops. All excur- sions will be given under the auspices of the Board of Commerce, af which all Little Rock manufacturers and jcbbers are members.
 It has long been argued that the chief benefit to be derived by trades ------~~----~-~-~-~-----~- INFLUENZA LEFT HIM IN TERRI

excursion is the fellowship deyelone,, between those who make the trin The manufacturers and jobbers of Little Rock have always been upon especially friendly terms, but it can not be denied that the Wednesday trip cemented friendships that will last for life time
 The trip was unique in one particu- lar-the train left Little Rock on time, reached every point on schedul- ed time, and pulled into the Cotton Belt station in North Little Rock one minute earlier than specified by the Iitinnerary. This was due to the sys- tenn enforced by George Firmin, gen. eral manager of the Board of Com nterce, who spent many years in rali- road work and appreciated the i'm portance of being on time. As a consequence the citizens of the va rious places visited did not have to wait for the excursionists, and the rrogrames were carried forth as pre- pared for.
 A feature of the excursion was the close relationship established be- tween Major General Peter E. Traub, commander of Camp Pike, and the ex- cursionsists. Major General Traub made the excursion in behalf of the recruiting service, but at Carlisle he was pressed into service as the chief speaker, and at every stop thereafter the burden of spell binding was plae- ed upon him Major General Traub is a most pleasant speaker, ani made such hit on the trip that as the train neared Little Rock on the return, he was given an ovation in each coach as he passed through to bid farewell to the manufacturers and jobbers
 Another noticeable feature was the presence of so many heads of manu- featuring and jobbing institutions. The manufacturers and jobbers are realizing the importance of the heads of the concerns making the trips, for it is these men who seldom get out into the trade territory that the trade most desires to meet, and they are putting aside even the most import ant business in order to be with their customers in their places of business.
 EVERYBODY TAGGED.
 Every excursionist was tagged with a label as follows:
