Great Discovery

''Did you ever notice." remarked the
country boy to his city cousin, "that
when a bunch of cattle are grazing
they all move along with their heads
In the same direction?"
"Why, so they do, don't they?" re-
piled the city boy, glancing at the herd.
Then after gazing long and earnestly,
he exclaimed:
"But, by George! l see something
you've never noticed. Their tails are
all in the opposite direction r'-Amer-

AS he leaped through the gap the
guards In the towers began shooting
Bullets were whistling around the
three fugitives. Gardner's companions
both former soldiers serving sentences
for vicious crimes committed while in
the army, fell, one dead and the other
seriously wounded. Gardner kept on

The break by Gardner and the sight
Of the gap in the barbed-wire fence
turned the $50 convicts in the prison
yard into wild animals frantic for
liberty. There was howl from $50
throats and the convicts started for
the fence. The guards had their hands
full controlling them, SO Gardner made

Judge Percy Steel and MT. Reynolds

Judge Percy Steel and MT. Reynolds
 of Ashdown, were visitors in Hope yesterday afternoon. In discussing the oil situation in Little River Coun. ty, MT. Reynolds said the excitement of week or ten days ago had some what subsided but drilling operations are under way and it is confidently expected that oil will eventually be found. MT. Reynolds also expressed some anxiety over the cotton situation. He was glad that prevailing prices made cotton worthwhile as a farming product, but thought much effort should be made to prevent growing a surplus next year. He argued that if farmers would grow cotton as d surplus crop after providing food for the family and feed for the stock, it would be, possible to market it for a good price at all times.-Star of Hope.

JACKIES WILL SHOW SKILL AT
 GUANTANAMO

NORFOLK, Va, March 21 (by As sociated Press).--A ship load of tar gets, big, little and medium sized and made to float or fly, has been forwarded to Guantanamo for de- struction by the Jacllies of the At, lantic fleet during the spring gun practice. The supply ship Lebanon carried 16,00O pieces of target ma terial when she nosed out to sea, in cluding the huge boX-floats on her decks at which the 14-inch triplets of dreadnaught main batteries will be turned loose.
 Fresh from joint maneuvers with the Pacific fleet in the Pacific, navy youngsters are expected by officers at the base here to show a high de- gree of skill with their long nosed shooting irons this year. They have added zest for their work in the playtime they put in with Admiral Watson cruising on the Pacific coast of South America The officers, mayhap, had to attend many formal banquets and ceremonies of recep. ton at ports visited, but the blue. jackets got a chance to prowl about shore and load up with impressions of picturesque tropical cities new to them. They will have a lot to tell the folks at home when the Pennsyl- vania points the way north for the fleet in April and Jack gets shore liberty in home ports.
 Every device for testing the skill of the gunners is included in the target shipment.
