A TRACTOR THAT PULLS ON
 ANY KIND OF GROUND

B. A. Magness and J. J. Fowler have secured the agency for the Cletrac Tractor for Independence county, and have received two of the tractors for demonstration purposes.
 The Cletrac tractor is in class by itself when it comes to getting over the roads in all sorts of weather. It is of the caterpillar type, small and compaetly built and easily handled. It has no equal when it comes to pull ling load over bad roads or wet and slippery ground. It is we'll adapted for farm use and is one of the best all ll-purpose tractors built. adv

FOR SANITARY SURVEY
 OF THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS

Little Rock, June 2.-The Arkansas Federation of Women's Clubs and the Arkansas Public Health Association have just perfected arrangements for sanitary survey of the schools of the state The survey is authorized by the State Departments of Health and Education and will be under the chairmanship of Mrs. C. ". Garrison. The Public Health Association is get ting out very complete questionnaire which will be sent to the district club chairmen of health in few days, and in order to expedite matters, they are requested to make report directly to the Arkansas Public Health Associa ton. It is planned to finish the sur vey by the first of November.
 This work has been taken up be- cause workers in the health and edu- eational fields have realized for a long time that unsanitary school con- ditions are affecting the health of the children. Field workers report that in many places toilet facilities were neither adequate nor proper. Build ings are overcrowded and poorly lighted and ventilated. In some the children are facing light, and in oth- CTS the water supply is reported not adequate. Frequent reports of this character have led to this study of conditions on an extended scale.

CIRCUIT CLERK B. F. ADAMS QUITS RAGE FOR RE-ELEC-
 TiON TO TAKE POSITION

 To My Friends and the Public:

 Ire office that I am now filling, and which 1 expect to fill until the end of the term to which I was elect ed, is one that requires q good deal of detail information, and the better one is informed as to the various de tails of the work, the better he can serve the public and the county.

THE GAME OF WAR
BY J. L. BROWN

The Allies gathered round the
 table,
 To help themselves now they are
 able.
 One wanted this-one wanted that And OCT the same, they had spat. France stretches out her border
 line,
 Until it reached the river Rhine; She wanted several thousand men, To keep the Germans out her pen. She got one coal field, it is true, And murmered cause she got not
 two. Italy thought 1t was so nice, To cut from Austria's land a slice, She then got mad and quit in
 gloom, Because she got not Plume. Then walked up the saucy Jap, That spilled no blood in all the
 scrap, And reaching out his greedy hand, He tore strip from China land. The Allies helped him do the stunt, And now old China has to grunt. The German rule may be curse, But that of Japan is the worse. Servia, Belgium, Little Greece, Each one got a little piece. Poland still is fighting sore, Because she still is wanting more. John Bull is a wise old fellow, He can pull as well as below, His toll from Turkey sure he gath
 CTS,
 Takes it in her eastern feathers, For it has ever been his glory, To enlarge his territory. Uncle Sam came out alone, The only dog without a bone. They seek to put on him a collar, So they can lead and make him
 follow
 For years, and years, it's been their
 rule,
 In different ways to try to fool, Our people and to get hold, Upon our armes and our gold They've tried to boss, and tried tC
 fool us, They've tried to come across ano
 rule us; We've had to whip them from oui
 shore,
 And yet may have to whip them
 more.
 We've had to whip and had to
 feed them, But as a boss we do not need them We'll stand up free and all alone, Without partner on throne; We'll reach to all a helping hand, To every one, in every land, Not as partner, forced to bend, But as neighbor and friend.

Woodrow Wilson one time stood For a theory that was good. The fourteen points that he pre-
 sented By no just man could be resented; There was one thing he made quite
 plain, fl That nations should not war for
 gain; Not for cash or territory, But for Democratic glory; Not for port, or land, or sea, But just to make the nations free Not that misery should increase, But to bring a world wide peace. The Nations listened as they should, The Allies said "The points are
 good" For anything looked good to them, If it meant help froc Uncle Sam. So Sammie sent along the bread, On which the fighting allies fed; He not only sent them hash, But sent them powder, clothes and
 cash. He also sent his noble sons To put to flight the husky Huns; They made the Germans hit the
 dirt, And cry "Mine Gott you Sammies
 hurt, You run us, We's already sore, You stop and we'll not fight some
 more. You take our ship, you take our
 gun, You have us whip and we are done, We let vun Holland keep our kaiser, We let him go and act the wiser, England and Belgium keep their
 kings, But Germans now have no such
 things, We've lost the fight, we stop our
 fuss, The Fourteen points look good to
 us." When the Germans dropped their
 lance, The Allies gathered OCT in France, While Woodrow Wilson crossed the
 sea, That in their council he might be; The time had come, he thought he
 saw, To weave his theory into law. When wartime lust was waxing hot The fourteen points were soon for
 got. No friend was strong enough to
 save, And keep them from a dismal
 grave. As long as Europe has her way, Therell be no resurrection day.

A man who accumulated little mo

A man who accumulated little mon ey and yet served humanity more than many man who has made a million, was D. Ward King of Mis- sodri, who died the other day His invention and promotion of the split log drag for road improvement was a boon to humanity. If King had pat ented his plan and sold the drag through agents at ten times it's cost, his idea might have made faster pro gress. It was so simple that it took people a long time to realize just how important it was.

CITY OFFICIALS TO
CONFERON GARBAGE
0DOR NUISANCE
ton and Also Future
Conditions.
FAVOR MUNICIPAL PLANT

To discuss plans seeking TO abate the
horrible odor that early this week made lie
miserable for residents OF this city, and
also to talk over the construction Of q
new crematory, the Finance Committee
Of city council, members Of the Board of
Health, Mayor Taylor and City Solicitor
Huxley will hold conference on Monday
or not later than Tuesday of next week
With the heads of these city departments
assembled, it is very likely that some def
mite action will result.
The item that will be first considered
will be the elimination il possible OF the
present o1or There has been no complaint
in the past two days from citizens and
there has also been an absence Of odor.
For that reason there Is the belief that
the crematory van be operated without
much annoyance TO the public, If proper
attention IS paid to it
One of the plans that has been suggested
and which may be arranged for, would be
to detail couple Of health officers to
watch the operation Of the crematory, in
the hope that the smells may be reduced
to minimum. That appears TO be the
only solution of the present difficulty.
II this plan does not work out successfully,
the CITY officials will have to seek another
method of averting the nuisance. While the
odor is very obnoxious and nauseatlng,
yet there is nothing harmful TO the health
aside from the annoyance and the attend
ant discomforts.
Regarding the future. If is said that the
health officials and others arc pretty firmly
convinced that the city should own q
modern crematory Plans for financing
the erection Of new building will be dis
cussed with councils fnanciers. in the
hope that by next spring a new crematory
will have been erected The plan now in
the minds Of the city officials, call for a
crematorv constructed at location 50
far distant from the residential portion 50
as TO prevent further nuisance.
II wili require probably six months to
construct new crematorv. and II would
not help the present situation because Of
that fact oniv as it applies % the future.

GEN. ATTERBURY
FOR PRESIDENT
His Friends Say Republicans Are
Likely to Pick Him as Their
Candidate.

Philadelphia, June denomination" of
General w. w. Atterbury rs candidate OF
the Republican party for President of the
United States may easily be rhe outcome
of the national convention, which meets
next week in Chicago, predicts Samuel III.
Barker, who has wide acquaintance with
men of large affairs and is very closely IN
their confidence.
"None of those who have been striving
to win the nomination, whose backors
have been spending money in previously
unheard of and scandalous amounts, Is
likely to win,' continued Mr.. Barker.
Let me emphasize that such is the
present belief of the shrewdest observers.
Each now running candidate may expect
a complimentary minority vote, Then the
convention will be at sea and drift either
until professional politicians make deal
and so get command, or the assembled
delegates sense the sober judgment of the
American people and give them business
executive to direct the national govern
ment through the period ahead when that
kind of level-headed leadership will be oi

progress of the country
