were authorized to negotiate for the
sale of next seasons crops t. o. b.

lowed last season on the cantaloupe
crop and, although no big profit was
shown, the local growers got more
money out Of the crop than was re-
ceived at any other shipping point, ac-
cording to statements made at the
meeting.
1t was decided that a radish crop
would be grown and a number Of
truckers present stated that they
would plant one acre each. The
Board of directors was instructed to
ascertain from members not present
the acreage they would plant to this
crop and to order the seed and bar
rels.
The need for public potato curing
house was discussed at the meeting
but no definite action was taken. It
is likely that some plan will be de-

DECORATIONSfO FOR
INJURED SOLDIERS
LOCAL CHILDREN TO SEND HOL-
LY AND BAMBOO TO CAMP
PIKE CONTINGENT.

The school children Of Washington
have been offered an opportunity for
real service by Miss Noonan, Red
Cross nurse, and that they will take
full advantage of it goes without the
saying.
Miss Noonan was in the city Tues
day and she reported that $50 wound
ed soldiers had just been transferred
to Camp Pike and in order to help
make Xmas more cheerful for them
she wanted the school children of this
city to collect bamboo and holly
and ship to Little Rock to furnish
decorations for them. Miss Noonan
said there was only small amount
Of money at the disposal of the organ
ization to help make Christmas real
to these convalescents and she felt
sure the children Of Washington
would be only too glad TO collect the
evergreens for them.
The teachers in the school, assisted
by the children, will see to collecting
and forwarding the evergreens.
1t is not certain that the service
Of Miss Noonan will be retained next
year, as Hempsetad County has not
quite raised its quota Of Red Gross
funds, but Miss Noonan says Head-
quarters of the Southern Division is
anxious that this county have a
nurse and she was returned here
from st. Louis for the present any
way. Should the county retain her
services, il is understood that coun-
ty headquarters would be established
at the court house in this city and
the nurse will organize forces, keep
a car and be prepared to take charge
Of any situation, emergency or other
wise, that might present itself. in
any part of the county.

NOTES ON SCHOOLS
edited by Hugh ID. Clark


The Epidemic of Diptheria that has
caused few Of the schools to close
has subsided and all the schools are
in session.
Evening Shade School had box
supper last week and raised $500
to buy shades and other needed equip
ment for the shhool.
The School at Goodlet, and Ozan
are doing some fine work this year
under the supervision of Miss jew
81 Smith, Homer Hrrris and Mrs.
Hyatt.
The Teachers in Red Land Town
ship are doing fine work in their
Sectional Meetings, under the direction
Of Greene Shuhield.
More of the schools should take ad-
vantage of the Boys Club Work.
Several children that should be in
school are unable to attend for want
of clothes. Apply to the County Su-
perintendant if you want TO dress a
child and then know that the child
is in school.
More patrons Of the county should
visit the schools, then you would have
first hand information, and not hear
say gossip.
