Fourth Was Celebrated
 Both Safe and Sane Here

It was a safe and sane Fourth in Ashdown. There was no general cele- bration here, but those who did not spend the day quietly in town, or in motoring to various places to spend the day. Some went to Mineral Springs, some to Horatio, and some to Ogden. There were picnics and fish frys on the river. Quite a number of the local people attended the barbecue and picnic at Ogden. All reported a great dinner and a good time, and spoke highly of the manner in which the Ogden people handled the affair. There was a ball game there in the afternoon between Richmond and Og- den, Richmond winning the game.

UNITED STATES AND THE
 TEUTOkS ARE AT PEACE
President Signs Resolutions Declar. ing the War at an End; First
 Step in Program.

Raritan, N. J., July 2.-The resolu- tion of Congress declaring the war with Germany and Austria at an end was signed at 3:10 this afternoon by President Harding.
 So that there might be no unneces- sary delay in communication of the long postponed state of peace, the resolution was brought here by spe- cial messenger from Washington, where it was given final congressional approval yesterday. The messenger left for the capital again tonight to complete the formalities by depositing the document in the archives of the State Department.
 There was little of the dramatic in the ceremony of giving presidential approval to the measure. Returning here from luncheon and golf game at the Somerville Hill Country Club the president found the White House messenger, F. w. Smithers, waiting for him on the veranda of the Ere house.
 MT. Harding immediately put on his nose glasses, and sitting in porch swing examined the official copy of the resolution minutely. The signing took place ot a small mahogany table Tn the adjacent living room in the center of distinguished group which included the president. his host and hostess, Speaker Gillett of the House of Representatives; Senator Kellogg of Minnesota, a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee: Senator Hale of Maine, and other members of the week end party.

KOlb is Selected for the
 Magnolia Aggie School

Little Rock, July 4.-That R. H. Kolb of Dierks probably will be appointed this week as superintendent of the Magnolia Agricultural School was stated last night by members of the schools board of trustees. MT. Kolb has been agreed upon by all members of the board and has accepted the ap- pointment, it was said, contingent up- on few minor details in the contract which will be worked out during the week. The appointment probably will be made Wednesday.
 MT. Kolb has been prominent in edu- cational affairs in southwest Arkansa s for 26 years. He was superintendent of school of Nashville for IS years, be- fore which time he held similar posi- tions in Sevier and Little River coun- ties. He is president of the Dierks National bank, but devotes most of his time to the active management of his 3O0-acre farm in Howard and Sevier counties.
 MT. Kolb, members of the board said, is the first man to whom the superintendency has been offered dir ectly. The matter has been discussed with others in this and other states, however, and President Cantwell of Oklahoma Agricultural and Mechani- cal College was at one time considered for the position.
 The summer short course will be- gin July 28 under the auspicies of the University Extension Division.

EXPECTS GREATER
LICENSE RECEIPTS
Head of Local Office Makes
Prediction as to Auto and
Other Permits.

Revenue from the sale OF automobile
tags and miscellaneous licenses dur
ing the fiscal year which ends next
June will far exceed the receipts for
last year, Wade H. Coombs. superin-
tendent of licenses, predicts.
Supt. Coombs bases this belief on
two facts: First. that during the four
! months of the fiscal year that have
elapsed he has collected $4,000 more
;or automobile tags than during the
corresponding period of last year;
second, that he took in nearly $1,000
| terday than he did a year ago.
During the last fiscal year Mr..
Coombs took in s442,3s0 on automo-
bile tags and other licenses. He be-
lieves his total receipts on June sc
next year will be close to s50o.ooo.
From July l of this year to Eoven-
Der l. Mr.. Coombs has issued l0.427
motor tags. netting the District $4O,-
943. For the corresponding period Of
last year he issued only 1855 tags
tor $30,S62.
Advice to Motorists.
Supt. Coombs advised motorists not
to come to the District building for 1922
tags until notice is given in the news
papers that the new tags have arrived.
which will be about December /.
A number of persons have called
at the license Office in the past few
days and bought tags. believing they
were getting 1922 tin plates. Con-
got outside and discovered they had
tags for the current year.
Business Licenses.
November l is the date on which
merchants whose business requires
license must obtain their annual
