 ABANDONED IN JAN.
BUILDINGS TO BE TORN DOWN AND SHIPPED TO OTHER
 POINTS.
GOVERNMENT SPENT $500, ,OOO
Lesser-Goldman Cotton Company Has Purchased All Buildings From the Government and Will
 Wreck the Buildings.

Little Rock, Ark.-All government employees have left Eberts Field. Lo- noke, and the Lesser-Goldman Cotton Company will start the work of tear ing down the 75 buildings to ship the lumber to other points for use The Lesser-Goldman company purchased these buildings at an auctiolt aale De- cember 10, and the material will be shipped to South McAlister Okla, Fort Smith and some of it to Little Rock. The smaller buildings perhaps will be used in Lonoke. 1t is said the houses are not constructed so as to be adaptable for residences, but they will be torn down and the mate- rial will be available for local houses, and will be sold at low prices.
 No soldiers have been stationed at Eberts Field since January }, with the exception of one officer, Lieut.. w $. Smith, an aviator, who was left to direct the civilian workers clean ing up the grounds.
 The government spent $S00,000 on the field, and this sum does not in- clude the machinery or equipment used for training the men. None of the buildings was erected more than one year ago. H. M. Bennett, local manager of the LesserGoldman com pany said he will move one or two of the buildings to Little Rock He said also that the governments lease on the land does not expire until June, and after that time the government has a reasonable time to remove the buildings. The LesserGoldman com- pany will be given ample time for removing the buildings, and the work may not be completed for some time.

MADE QUICK CHANGE OF MIND
School Principal Revised Her Opinion as to the Necessity for Im-
 mediate Action.

For several days the little field mice had been coming from the fields into small-town school building. The young CT teachers were frightened and sent to the store for quantity of poison. They were mixing 1t with bread crumbs when the principal arrived. On her question as to when they were going to put out the paste they answered, Immediately"
 But you can't do that" she protest ed. Tt would be In the way. Wait until tonight. One more day with mice around you won't make any difference in the long run"
 The teachers were uneasily silent. And then came frightened little squeak and a mouse ran right across the room, close to the principals feet. She gave a decided shiver, an imita- tion of dance of modern mention and then turned to the janitor, who was standing near. John" she said, se- verely, well put out that rat poison right away.

CHEAT IMP OF WAKEFULNESS
Some Methods by Which 1t Is Said the Drowsy God May Be Sue
 cessfully Wooed.

Sufferers from sleeplessness should try this trick. Have pair of binders made from q double thickness of black silk. These should just cover the eyes, with cut for the nose, being held in place by q broad elastic band. Hang these on the bed post, and if the morn- ing light comes in too early put them on. Another remedy is suggested by the sleeping methods of pigs. Tie two paper clips to either end of cord seven or eight feet long Clip the top of the counterpane with one and a soft weight with the other. If not sleeping after 15 minutes. pull the cOunterpane over your head. This in- duees that long, even breathing, nat ural to the approach of sleep, as may be noticed in pigs. As one doZes off, the band holding the counterpane re- laXes, and the weight pulls 1t down, so that one is again breathing fresh air. People suffering from insomnia should, when travelng, nsst upon a Gouble bed in quiet room. Be sure that it is not over the kitchen or near motor garage, or facing a clock that sounds the quarter hours. or within q girls throw of fowl house.

WITH OUR ALLIES

The U. S. liquidation committee ap.
pointed to settle the claims between
this country and various allied and
other European powers has made it's
final report which shows some inter-
esting figures. The largest settle
ment was with France. Surplus sup
plies and equipment costing 81, 500,-
100000 were sold in Europe, largely
to France, for 100000 900. Thera
was returned to the United States
property to the value Of $672.000,
900. France assumed our obliga-
tons to the French railroads upon the
payment Of 435, 100000 francs. This
covered the transportation of more
than 100000 men. All the claims
against this country by individuals in
France were assumed by the French
government for the sum of 12,000,-
900 francs. For port dues we paid
100000 francs. The settlement
with Belgium left net balance due
the United States of $27,00O, 900. To

ITALIAN INVENTED
DEADLY DEPTH BONE

The depth charge which did such
telling work against the German sub
marines was the invention of an TIA
liam, C. E. Ella an officer>of the TIA
liam navy. When America entered
the war the invention was brought
to Washington and offered to the
American navy. Engineers were i'm
mediately set to work on it, and very
important and useful improvements
were soon made, among them a con-
trivance which made the charge ex-
plode at the desired hydrostatic pres
sure. Commander Ella is an inven-
tor of international fame and there is
no navy in the world that does not
use some of his inventions. He gives
generous credit to Americans for
making his depth bomb effective and
for compensating him well in both
kindness and money.

GOOD STRAIGHT TIP.

People who write things which
they would like to see printed in a
newspaper should bear in mind that
what they write as their personal OBJ
inion should be fathered by them, and
when they write stuff that is lot fit
for them to attach their names to 1t
should never be printed.
Remember the rule of decent news

TRADES THAT PLAY HAVOC
WITH THE HEALTH OF MEN

Science has for long time been
trying to find away by which the
stonecutter may carry on his work
without inhaling mineral dust. These
workers thru constantly breathing in
an atmosphere laden with fine parti-
cles, rarely live beyond their fortieth
year, while consumption also carries
off scores of filecutters, grindstone
makers and others similarly engaged 1.
Many needle-grihders suffer from
what is termed grinders asthma"
while polishers and grinders of cut
glass are extremely liable to contract
a disease similar to lead poisoning,
the first symptoms Of which are evil
denced by decaying teeth and gums.
Diamond cutters are frequently at
tackled by "wrist-drop" a disease
which is the outcome of the use of
solder-containing lead-in the cut
ting process.
Miners and sewer men suffer from
the effects of the impure atmosphere
in which they work, while glass-blow-
ers are invariably affected by ex-
tremes of heat inseparable from the
task of shaping molten glass.
Lacemakers are subject to an in
flamation of the eyes, and it is for
this reason that many of them wear
colored glasses. If the trouble is
neglected, as it frequently is, Sc
rious breakdown ensues. and, some
times, death, as the result of nervous
exhaustion.
But of all forms of dangerous en-
ployment, that of the worker in lead
is the worst. Lead poisoning affects
no fewer than dozen different trades
of which the production of which
white lead is the most fatal. Science
has lessened its ravages, but has not
abolished 1t.
