Rousy Johnson had never attained

to absorb considerable Of the general
idea during one winter when the dis
trict school teachers boarded with him.
During the winter the teacher often
corrected the Johnson children in their
grammar, and Rousy was proud OF
his offsprings' education.
After the teacher left Rousy elected
to keep up the good work. At the sup
per table one evening he asked Ted.

received the answer: "Uh-huh."
Rousy judged this was grammatical

Joan of Arc House.

In 1911 the city of Paris bought the
old residence of the archbishops of
Sens in the Saint Paul quarter
with no particular thought as to what
use would be made of it. The idea
has now gained favor of concerting
II into a Saint Joan OF Arc museum.
The building was built between 1474
and 1919, and Is uncommonly rich In
French memories. Queen Margat lived
In It for while, and it is inseparably
ronnected with Charles VIII and the
Hundred Years war. 1t Is regarded
as one of the very best specimens Of
Partisan architecture Of the fifteenth
century.

The facilities now used by you were paid for
by money furnished by strangers. They know
what they are earning in Louisiana while
serving you Just as you know
Can you ask or expect them to furnish more
money for your use in Louisiana under pres
ent conditions?
If the people of Louisiana will not supply
the money needed to serve themselves they
must induce strangers to furnish it,
This can be done by allowing the stranger to
earn fair and just profit upon his money
now invested in Louisiana, serving you, and
UPON all additional money required to furnish
you service.
This can be done in but one way: by paying
fair and just rates.
When the Company is legally authorized to
charge a rate which will yield a fair and just
profit over and above the cost of furnishing
you service In the state of Louisiana, 1t can
secure from strangers living In other states
the money needed to furnish service to the
state of Louisiana
The Company must have this right before II
can get the money.
The people Of Louisiana must act first
To have telephone service you must either
ness, or permit the Company to earn such
profit upon its present and future investment
as will induce strangers to invest their money
in the state of Louisiana TO serve you.

IS IT GOOD?

It is pretty safe to prophecy that s very large per cent of the newspapers of the United States will be forced to suspend during the present year as result of exorbitant publication costs. This will be a genuine boost to the various brands of anarchist who, under one title or another. thrive thru the ignorance and credulity of unin- formed people. It will be joy to all sorts of people, in public and private life, who dislike publicity, and a sur cease to the cares of Postmaster Gen eral Burleson, who has had so much grief over the handling of second class mail matter.
 But is it a good thing for nation, the very existence of which is based on the intelligence of the people on whose votes and decisions 1t depends

ROBBERS GET PRECIOUS BOOZE.
Al Bentonyille Steal 3la Barrels Ap-
 pie Jack Worth $10 a Quart.

Bentonville, Feb. l8.-Ben Rake straw, government gauger, of Sloan Springs, is here to investigate the robbery of the government warehouse in this city, which is known as the only oasis in the county.
 Thieves broke the lock to the ware house and drained about three and cne-half barrels of apple jack into smaller containers, which they took off with them.
 The liquor was worth $10 quart, or about $500 per barrel This is the second robbery of the warehouse in the past three months and four bar rels were taken before, leaving about thirty five barrels of the apple jack in the warehouse. The warehouse is to be guarded in the future, for each night watchman will guard the pre- cious drink. No clue was left as to who the robbers were, but officers think the. liquor was taken out of town. There is no similarity in the method used to gain admittance to the warehouse, with the recent warehouse robbery at Rogers.

FOR CRCuTr CLERK.

In the regular column in this issue wifi be found the formal announce ment of W. L. Parker for Circuit Clerk and Recorder of Polk county, who is asking for reelection on his merits as faithful public servant
 The Star does not assume there is any reason to tell the people of Polk county anything about W. L Parker, for there is no man in the county with wider acquaintance.
 In his official life he has established record for always having his records in excellent shape, neat and accurate, and his accommodating ways and courtesy are proverbial These ele- ments of good service are very gen. erally appreciated by all the public and there is every reason to feel as sured that the same quality of service will be continued.
