To Each Man Has Been
Allotted Certain Work
to Be Required Of Him

Columbus begged his way from
door to door In strange land, lead
ing his little son forlornly by the
hand. Thomas A. Edison was the
prey Of TIL collectors who logged his
footsteps like hungry wolves.
There are countless other men
known and unknown to history who
suffered nameless prosecutions, even
suffering death Itself because they
could not be dissuaded from doing the
work that they believed It was theirs
to do.
Work was their religion. It was the
ruling passion Of their lives "And.
after all. work Ia the great adventure"
as Frank Lane said not long ago In
one Of his public speeches.
Work should be every mans re-
llgion. God himself has said that II
Is the truest way to pray. II is only
the devil who loves to find our hands
Idle.
Now. II Is true also that 1t Is not
given to all men to make magic fid-
dies, to grasp beaute0us ceramics
from the oven or to discover new
worlds. But. II Is also true TINT every
man can find work for his hands to
do. II may he very humble work. In
deed: 1t may be work that anyone can
do; hut no matter what 1t is, we can
make It great. We can make 1t holy.
even. We can consecrate our work
by the soul that we put into 1t.
II seems to IFS that Gods most grn-
cious dispensation to men Is that he
continuously creates sufficient num-
her Of them to do the common tasks.
n we were all OF us bent on making
fiidles or ceramics. painting pictures
and weaving songs, there would be
no one left to hew the wood and
draw the water.
In other words, II we were all art
lists" who would cook the meals and
wash the dishes?
There Is no dignity to equal the dig
nifty OF labor. Remember that. And
remember, too. TINT there Ia no labor
that lacks dignity. no matter how
simple or how common or how hum
ble its tasks may be.

Governor Brough Issues Proclamation Permitting Veterans to Pay Poll
 Taxes Without Penalty.

Little Rock, April Ex-Governor Brough has issued proclamation permitting all discharged soldiers and sailors of the United States to pay their poll taxes without a penalty for non-assessment. The proclamation follows:
 "To All to Whom These Presents Shall
 Come-Greetings:
 Know ye that whereas more tha1 seventy-one thousand of Arkansas brave sons were engaged in the recent world war in defense of our homes and our country, many of whom fought in the battles which turned the tide and won signal victories for dem ocracy, and.
 Whereas, many of them were un- able to assess their taxes during the regular tax assessing period of 1915 and under ordinary circumstances, in order to pay their poll tax, qualify and participate in the coming elec- tions of Arkansas, a penalty for non- assessment would attach under the Tvs of our state, and
 "Whereas, these splendid young men should not be deprived of their citizenship nor penalized because of their participation in the recent war and should be permitted to pay their poll tax without penalty in order to fully qualify under the laws of this state.
 "Now, Therefore, I, Charles H, Brough, governor of the state of Ar kansas by virtue of the authority vest ed in me under the constitution and laws of said state and acting in my official capacity, do hereby issue this proclamation calling upon the sheriffs and clerks of the different counties of our commonwealth, to permit all hon. orably discharged soldiers, sailors and marines to pay their poll taxes with out penalty, that they may be permit ted to participate and have a voice in the election of all county and state officials throughout our common wealth"
