Colored Farmer Wants
Farm Demonstration Work

Editor Sentinel:
Please allow space in your wond-
erful paper to call attention of the
public to the necessity of continuing
farm demonstration work. I think
the negroes especially need it; our
people will do mighty near what
they tell us. Iwish We could have
a meeting of the citizens at next
meeting Of he board Of supervisors
to talk to those gentlemen about it.
All of US are in a tight and l think
that we will need direction from the
white folks more than ever, in fact
it looks like a time when every far
mer needs especial encouragement
and leadership. I have something
to bring to your Office to show you
and then + want to carry it before
the board. This will show you what
/ have dore under farm demonstra-
ton direction. We need somebody
to show US, not to talk to as. / hone
you and the other good wkite people
of he county will think this matter
over and e that we ale not left
without a farm director. /
Yours respectfully,
E. L. Perry.

~LICKFOLD-THE JEWELER.

Almost everybody visits a jewelry
store for Christmas purchases. When
a durable gift is desired, a jeweler
is the first one thought of. This
season will be no exception to the
rule. Mr.. F. R. Lickfold has an
exceptionally we'll selected stock and
many things which will especially ap-
peal to the needs and the purses of
the present hour. And there is this
particular thing about dealing with
such a man as F. R. Lickfold; he
can be counted upon to give every
customer a square deal and to stand
squarely behind any statement or
he makes. He is a most
dependable man in all things and The
Sentinel takes great pleasure in add
ing its testimony to that of what the
community in general thinks of him.

IN MEMORIAM.

Our Creator in His infinite wisdom
has called from the walks of this life
to eternal rest our friend, county
man and brother physician, DR.. Byrd
c. James of the Gore Springs COM
munity.
Moved by our appreciation of the
life, character and usefulness of our
departed friend who vas a loving
husband and affeectionate father, a
good neighbor, a thoughtful, useful
and considerate citizen, a true friend
and a skilled and successful physi-
clan, we tender to the sorrOwing
wife and grief stricken son our sin
cerest sympathy, and we want them
to know that our hearts bleed with
theirs in this trying hour. We shall
miss his pleasant smiles, his cordial
greetings, his hearty handshake and.
that heart to heart relationship that
comes of true and unalloyed friend
ship. May we all take consolation
in the life that he lived and the ser
vice that he rendered to humanity,
all of which was registered in the
sacred records of the Celestial City,
where there is eternal beauty and Of
which Gods word says, "There is
night there" AZ
When the spirit of DR.. Byrd C..
James left it's earthly tabernacle, we
believe that the doors of Heaven |
swung wide open and that a convoy |
of angels raj sent to bear it home.
May we all profit by the life he iv-
ed, the example he set and endeavor
show forth his virtues in u own
lives.

BILIOUS CHILDREN
Black -Draught, Long in Successful Use, Praised by an Arkansas Mother, "Soon Does
 Its Work"

Marmaduke, Ark.-Speaking of Thedford's Black-Draught, which from long use in her household has become regarded as the family medicine" :" Mrs. Mary E. Hill, of Route l, this place, says:
 When the children get bilious, give them a couple of good doses, and when we have sour stomach, headache. or any liver or stomach trouble, we use Black-Draught. It is an easy laxa- tive, and soon does the work. l cer- tainly think it is one of the best rem edies made"
 Black Draught acts on the jaded liver, gently, but positively, and helps 1t in it's important function of throw ing out waste materials and poisons from the system.
 In thousands of households Black Draught is kept handy for immediate use in time of need Prompt treatment often is half the battle, and will often prevent slight ills from developing in- to serious troubles.
 It's well-established merit, during more than 70 years of successful use, should convince you of the helpful effects obtainable by taking Black Draught for liver and stomach dis orders. Get a package today, and keep 1t in your house. See that the package bears the words, "Thedford's Black -Draught." NC-141

CONWAY LAWYER
 HAS DISAPPEARED
E. H. COULTER MISSING
Wife Almost Distracted Over Nyster- ious Absence of Local Attorney
 Since October 15.

That her husband, Edward H. Coul- ter, former prosecuting attorney of Faulkner county, prominent in legal and fraternal circles here, has myster- iouslv disappeared and that all eff forts Dy her and his relatives to locate him have proved unavailing was ad- mitted by today by Mrs. Coulter, who, almost distracted with grief and anx- iety, fears that he has met with foul play or accidental death. MT. Coulter left Conway for Little Rock on Octo- Der IS, telling Mrs. Coulter he would be absent from home on a business for a few days. Since then she has had no word from and messages to many relatives and friends in various sections of the country have brought no trace of him.
 Although MT Coulter had appeared somewhat Respondent recently, Mrs. Coulter is unable to assign any reason for his continued absence and refuses to believe that he is voluntarily re- maining away from home. She said he was involved in some financial diff faculties which, however, were not ser ious or large in amount, and although pressed for ready cash he was in pos session of notes and securities upon which he could have easily have obtain ed sufficient funds to tide him over his difficulties. A brother and other relatives, she said, had also volun- teered financial assistance since his disappearance, if such should be needed.
 The Coulter family came to Con- way three years ago from Marshall Ark, where they had resided short time. Mr Coulter's native home was at Milan, Gibson county, Tenn. He is graduate of Laneview College Trenton, Tenn, and of the law school at Lebanon, Tenn. He was 36 years of age and of medium build, weighing about 160 pounds and being about ] feet, inches in height He has black hair and grey eyes.
