FOUND IT IN THE STAR That's the Way c. A. Fuller Learned
 of Hop Clover.

Now and then one hears some dis gruntled reader say there's nothing in the papers anymore" However, c. A. Fuller, who lives in a suburban home near the Thacker school house. isn't the author of any such statement. fol he has found something worth while in recent issue of The Star. Mir Fuller noticed growing on his place an early spring clover, that grew lux uriantly in places and seemed to be enaeavoring to outgrow all the other grasses at the beginning of the sea- son. It was such a good pastura ge grass and gew so rapidly that he naturally wanted to know more about it. Inquiries from neighbors and friends brought forth no satisfactory Information and Mir. Fuller was about to conclude the strange clover was an unknown. when he chanced upon a small article in the Weekly Star The article revealed the secret and Mir Fuller now knows the spring grass is hop clover. He. like others, finds il to be most excellent pasturage, partic- ulariy or cows,

NEAR BARBARIC CONDITIONS
 NOT FAR DISTANT FROM MENA

Miss Leonora Rector, probation of- ficer, calls attention to the following facts:
 Near Owens Chapel, just east of Mena. there is one room house that is "homes for three families with with eight children. They are so very poor, financially, it is necessary for them to live together in this one, small room and they haven't food nor nec- essary clothing. Of the children, five are boys, between the ages of and 15 years; two girls, one I2 years old, the other IS years old; and one tiny baby only two days old. Neither of these children of age are attending school for they haven't clothes to wear. The small two-dayrDld baby hasn't one tiny garment and the par ents are not in condition to supply even the necessary clothes for this helpless mite of humanity~n IS
 Miss Rector asks the help of our people of Mena to relieve this sad con dition. If you can send clothes or food, phone her at her home and she will send for your donations.
 This is an appeal from our own peo- pie thru the probation officer and should be answered as fully and as promptly as are the reliefs for the foreign missions. fI

WAS LOUIS JOHNsON's FORD.
Hatfield Banker "Fied Up on Jury,
 Thought It Safe on Street.

The Ford car found on Mena street Tuesday by Chief of Police Hungate has been returned to it's owner, who proves to be Louis Johnson, the Hat field banker. Mr Johnson's explana- ton for the apparent abandonment of the faithful Ford is that he was sum- moned to jury duty soon after leav. ing the car and did net get relieved from service until the early hours ot inc next morning. Believing the car was safe he did not bother about hay. ing a guardian appointed or a guard set over it. He was grateful, how ever. that the police and not thief took the car off the street.
 The first rumor was to the effect that Louis had forgotten he had car with him and had walked home-but you can't always tell about these Ford yarns.

SHOT" BOSTON STORE WELL.

 Realistic Fashion.

The Boston Stores oil well was shot Wednesday afternoon and "came in" with a flow estimated at some. thing less than million barrels a day. Chief Driller A. Badt arranged for the bringing in the we'll and when the time to shoot came there was a crowd at the big show window to watch. It was real shot and soon thereafter flow of inky black fluid shot up over the top of the derrick, As show window attraction the bringing in of the well proved one of the best hits of the season, and sea soned campaigners from real oil fields said the effect was as near correct as one could expect. The derrick and surroundings, stained with the flow ing. fluid, made most realistic pic lure. When asked as to the quality and grade of the oil Sam Badt, prin- Ripal owner in the well, admitted there was trace of B. s. in the flow

METHODISTS HAVE AMBITIOUS
 PROGRAM OF EDUCATION
Ask and Are Preparing to Raise S33,. 100000 for Southern Schools
 Quotas for Arkansas.

special to The Star
 Little Rock, April 28.--Before an audience of 1000 people at the First Methodist church here Friday, the Hon. Josephus Daniels, former sec retary of the navy, launched actively in Arkansas the Christian Education Movement of the Methodist church, South, which seeks to obtain over a five year period $33, 3,0OO,000 for the maintenance and upbuilding of Metho- dist schools and colleges in the South. Mir. Daniels pointed out the imperative need of bringing up the South's edu- cational facilities if Southern youth is to have an even chance with the boys and girls of the North and East.
 Altho Mir. Daniels did not announce specifically the amounts wanted in Ar kansas, Henry A. Ahrens, secular pub- licity director, who is making the tour of Southern cities with the former navy secretary, gave the following figures: Allotment for Little Rock conferences $1, ,103, ,000, for North Ar kansas conference $878,000. Allot- ments assigned Arkansas schools are: Hendrix College at Conway, $700,000; Galloway College at Searcy, $490,000; Henderson-B Brown College at Arkadel- phia, $420,O00 and Sloan-Hendrix Academy at Imboden, $70,000. This makes $1 ,680,0 ,000 to be applied direct ly to Arkansas schools.
 Dr. J. M. Workman and the Rev. F. M. Tolleson, educational secretaries respectively for. the Little Rock and the North Arkansas conferences, have opened headquarters in the Boyle building here, and are actively in charge of the work Commenting on the enthusiasm with which Mir. Dan- iels has been, received in the cities, and especially in Little Rock, both secre- taries have expressed greatest confi- dence that the movements entire quota will be raised, and that there will be nc difficulty in obtaining Ar kansas allotment.

Tho Twice Convicted of Being Drunk
 Alex Boylan Not Convinced

 Alex Boylan, veteran mining pros pector of Mena and Acorn. most ye- hemently denies that he is guilty of drunkenness as charged and is desir- ous of giving $10 to anyone who will convince him of the fact. The s1O is lHCw at The Staroe8ce awaiting the one Who swill supplyethe necessary proof.
 Some weeks ago Boylan was haled m Justice Smiths court and accused of being under the influence of intoxi- cants. At that time Alex emphatical- " denied theschArge and insisted that 1t was sickness and not booze that caused him to act as he did. The court, however, believed that the old prospector was under the influence and assessed small fine.
 boyian appealed to the circit court and last week Judge Steel affirmed the findings of the lower court. Tho de- eiared guilty by two courts the min ing man was not convinced and still insists he was as sober as a judge. He was, too, when he came to the Star office Monday and left perfectly good speciment of Uncle Sam's cur rency in the keeping of Don D. Clement, with these instructions as to it's disposal:
 T, Alex Boylan, offer $10 to any man who can knowingly say that I
 have had in my possession in the
 past year any alcoholic drinks of
 any kind. 1 am willing to admit my
 mistake when proof is offered and
 will surrender the $10 without ar s*ssument.n
 This offer is good for thirty days, MT. Boylan states and any one that wants S10 can get it by calling at the Star office in company with MT. Boy Ian and getting that gentleman to ad- init he has had alcoholic liquors in his possession in the past year.
