THE NEW FILLING STATION.

ssdrive in" service station Of the Con-
sumers Service Stations, Inc, is to be-
bin soon, according to information re-
ceived by The Times reporter from
the main offices Of the company in
Rock Island, nj.
Construction of the new station
here has been delayed by the cold
weather and snow and by the difficult
ty Of procuring building materials.
In spite of these handicaps, however,
the company has had its construction
crews continually at work throughout
the winter on the many new stations
it is building, and it expects to be
able to start work on the local sta
ton within q very short time. The
station, according to the company, will
be in operation by spring.
The local station will be one of the
chain which the company operates
throughout the middle west for the
distjbution Of quality gasoline, lubri-
:ants and other motor car supplies.
On January 1st the company had ap-
proximately one hundred stations in
operation or well under way of con-
struction. Sites had been procured
and materials purchased for about
fifty additional stations. BY spring
the company expects to have all these
stations operationg and as many more
under construction.
In constructing and operating its
chain of stations, the company lays
great stress upon buildings that please
the eye, equipment that insures full
measure to the consumers, products
of high quality and a service that
eaters to the slightest whims of the
motorists.
The stations are models of efficien-
~ and attractiveness. The construc-
rion department of the concern has
adopted uniform type of building
which is unique and which makes the
stations stand out as, distinctive. The.
design is adaptable to any size of
building. It is suited as we'll to the
modest station in small village as to
the ornate and imposing structure
which graces the busy downtown cor
her of large city. "A black and-white
checkerboard scheme Of exterior dec
Soration adds to the distinctiveness of
the stations. A hobby also is made
OF surrounding the stations, wherever
location permits, with grass plots,
shrubbery and flowers. Concrete
:driveways connecting with the streets
permit automobiles to drive directly
through the stations s1s Al
It is a boast Of the company that it,
invariably installs in each Of it's sta
tions the very latest and most inn
proved devices for handling gasoline.
oils and kindred, products. Visible
glass-barreled pumps always are in
stalled. These pumps permit the pur-,
chaser of gasoline to see for himself
that he gets full measure down to the
last fraction of a pint. "A double sys-
tenn of strainers insures that the gaso-
line is free from impurities and for
eign substances when it goes into the
tank of a car. Many other devices
are utilized for the convenient and ex-
peditious handling Of petroleum pro-
ducts.

CLUB HEARS IDEA /
 OF NEGRO SCHOOL

Speaking at the meeting Friday night of the Conway Commercial Club, Bishop J. M. Connor of the Afri- can Methodist church stated what his race and church hopes to accomplish for the negroes of Arkansas in pre- parlng them for more intelligent and more productive work through agri- cultural and vocational training. For one thing, the migration of negroes to the north will be stopped, the speaker declared. From his travel and observation, he said it is his firm conviction that the south is the place for the negro, providing better op- portunlty for work and for alta ming real independence as compared with the condition of the most of southern negroes who move to the north Bishop Connor secuted the idea at sev- eral points of his address that the better class of negroes desire social equality. The agricultural school. he reiterated, would prepare the negro for farming, his logical work, and would result in substantial benefit to the negro himself and the community in which he lives
 Introduced by Dr. John Hugh Rev holds, the speaker made a favorable impression on his audience by his sin cerity and his evident desire to CO., operate with the white people of the county in launching a school which will be of material benefit to the county itself, as well as the race His discussion of the vocational school was in general terms, and the club voted to defer action until Bishop Connor has had opportunity to con- suit with others of his church and race, and submit a definite proposi- tion to the club
 Other matters scheduled to come before the club were deferred until a later meeting. Dr. Reynolds pre- sided at the meeting in the absence of President Tom Davis, who was de- tained by illness in his family
