FEATURE AT GRAND.

A feature film said to be far out of the ordinary, "Whispers,' is the offering at Hauber's Grand theatre tonight. Elaine Hammerstien, sup. ported by Matt Moore, heads the cast of the players, the film being produc- cd by Select. The theme of the pho tcplay deals with "backstairs" whis- peras of scandal, malice and islander, unfolding a dramatic story which in- wolves Miss Hammerstein in a net of circumstances. The film is said to be astounding. A "Snub" Pollard come dy, Drink Hearty" is also a part of the bill.

Supt. E. '. Leverctt of Municipal Plant Says Shortage is Serious
 and Prices Very High.

The shortage of coal in Arkansas is very serious and prices are unpre- cedentedly high, Supt. E. V. Leverett of the municipal light and water sys- tenn said today, following h s return from a trip of inspection to the coal fields of western Arkansas.
 Northern buyers are at the mines bidding unhead-of prices for Arkan- sas coal,' said MT. Leverett, and the prices have scared to very high figures. l was unable at any of the mines l visited to get a quotation on mine run coal, but the best price at which 1 was offered slack coal at $5 per f. o. b. the mines This W Il mean a cost of over $7 per ton deliv- cred in our bins for slack coal This same grade of coal was selling the first of this month at $3.50 per ton The pre-war price was S1 to $50 per ton, and with the new advance freight will be nearly double what it was then"
 The price is not only extremely high, but it is almost impossible to get even promises of delivery, MT. Leverett said. On account of the car shortage the mines were run only in- termittently during the summer, and there is no surplus anywhere Bins of plants all along the Fort Smith road are empty he said. Added to this the purchase of coal by concerns heretofore getting their fuel else where has made the shortage more acute.
 Manager W. C. Daugherty of the Citizens Ice X Fuel Company said today that he hoped to be able to take care of his customers here, but coal would have to be rationad among them and no one could expect to store large quantity ahead. Tt looks as If we shall be unable to get any hard coal at all," he said. "The BeInice mine near Russellville has been on fire and has not been operat- ed for six weeks, and it is very un- certain when 1t will be producing again. The soft coal mines are all oversold and the prices are advanc- ing rapidly. We have no coal on hand now, but based on present prices we should have to charge $16 per ton for commercial coal delivered in Conway. And it will probably go still higher"
 Commercial lump coal sold here last year at $9 to $1O ton delivered. The government fuel administration fixed the price in 1918 at $6.50 to ST. 50 per ton delivered. In 1914 the same quality of coal could be had here at $4.50 to $5 a ton delivered.

Looking at Facts!

Many people wait until their watch es are giving imperfect time before bringing them in for inspection. This is very bad policy, because if the watch is kept running without clean ing or Oiling until the pivots become worn, it is almost impossible to put them in as good condition as formerly. IF YOU HAVE A GOOD WATCH,
 BE A FRIEND TO IT
 and it will return your friendship with good service. A watch should be cleaned once year in order to give it lifelong service.
 Let Us put your watch in first-class condition before it becomes necessary.

Mrs. Lombard is truthful and bears the highest of reputation among her friends and netghbors. She says:
