ARKANSAS RICE TO
 FEED THE STARVING

Little Rock, Jan. 21.-What is con- sidered one of the most practical and effective movements as yet advanced in behalf of the European relief cam paign in Arkansas is the plan to pur- chase the surplus supply of rice for distribution among the stricken coun- tries of Europe. The price is very low and the scheme has been endrs- ed by the state concil of which Hamp Williams of Hot Springs is chairman. The appeal for donation of S10 which assures the support of one child for year is bringing in numerous re- sponses. All interested persons are requested to communicate with Claud W. Kelley, state manager, at 306 Citizens National Bank Building, Hot Springs.

from railroad business here and the establishment of a separate telegraph office. These efforts failed, and it was decided short time ago to ask legislature to pass special act to this end. President P. F. Cleaver of the Commercial Club consulted with Senator George F. Hartje, who prom ised to introduce the measure, and legal notice of it's introduction was published in the Log Cabin Democrat.
 As soon as the notice appeared, an employe of the railroad company be- gan the circulation of a remonstrance against the passage of the special act and, to the amazement of those seek ing to bring about improved telegraph service here, the remonstrance was signed by numerous leading business men of Conway, among them being men who have complained most loud ly against the present inefficient ser vice and who led the previous move ment of the Commercial Club to se cure better service.
 The Log Cabin Democrat cannot believe that those who signed the re- monstrance meant to protest against a needed improvement of telegraph service here. Those who signed it must have done so with the carelessness that is characteristic of signing pe- titions in this country If upon fur ther reflection they should decide that the remonstrance is ill-advised, they should write at once to their senator and representative and so inform them.
 Conway is the fourteenth city in population in Arkansas. It is the largest city in the state without separate Western Union office, but numerous cities and towns much small CT than Conway have telegraph of- fees independent of railroad stations.
 The proposed bill will impose no undue burden upon the telegraph company, as it is provided in the bill that if the company so desires it may keep it's separate office open only dur ing usual daylight business hours and may continue to use railroad employees at the passenger station for receipt and transmission of night messages.
 When the Commercial Club previ- ously took up the matter, it was in- formed by Western Union officials that the receipts of the Conway office would not justify the maintenance ot a separate office. It is but natural under the difficult conditions, the garbling and delay of messages, that the public should resort to the use of the telegram only when no other means are available. When a letter to Little Rock, St. Louis or Memphis will reach it's destination practically as quickly as a telegram, it is not strange that people will use the long distance telephone and pay much higher tolls when an urgent message is to be transmitted, Adequate and efficient service would unquestion- ably increase the telegraph company's receipts here.

BOYS
 HEROISM IS AWARDED
Story of Country Youths Brave Act in Saving Lives of Girl and Her
 Companion.

Russellville, Jan. 21.-Announce- ment has just been made of the award of a Carnegie hero medal to Hughey Ford of Russellville, who saved a young lady and her companion from possible death or serious injury in an automobile accident July 5, 1917. No cash award was made to Ford, who is now a husky young fellow doing a full days work every day in his fathers garage. He received broken arm and many bruises, but no permanent injuries.
 At the time of his act of heroism Ford was a lank country boy, yet in his teens, having just moved to Rus sellville from the northern part of the county. The accident occurred at the St. Mary's street crossing, just west of the passenger station. The car, a Ford, was being driven by Miss May Owens of Plainview, a Fourth of July visitor in the city. She was an inexperienced driver and her com panion, a young man in the family where she was visiting, also knew nothing about driving. Going north on St. Mary's street, as she approached the railroad she saw the crossing blocked by a passing freight train, about half the length of which had passed the crossing. From excite ment or some unexplained cause, the young lady lost control of the car and was headed straight into the passing train. Young Ford, standing near, saw her predicament and went he- roically to her aid. He mounted the left side of the cad and cut off the gasoline, but was unable to operate the brake from this position on the running board.
 Grabbed the steering wheel, he at tempted to steer the car to the right so as to miss the train. He was too late, however, the left front wheel striking the train. Ford was caught between the car and the train, which caused his injuries, the car being whirled completely around and stop ped headed west. The car was badly smashed, but the young lady and her companion, who remained in the seat, were uninjured.
 This is the fourth Carnegie medal which has been awarded in Pope county.

 l. ! f TELEGRAPH FACILITIES I
 I. AT CONWAY. 4
 1. :.
 I. s....,....:-.:...-....:-....-..-..............

Telegraph facilities in Conway not only have not improved in the past 30 years, but are actually not half so good now as they were 30 years ago, when the population was about one- fourth as large. Then there was em- ployed here a telegraph operator whose sole duty was to receive and transmit telegraphic messages. Now the only provision for dispatching and receiving telegrams is the spare time of a single clerk, who, in addition to the duties of manual block operator in dispatching and transcribing or ders for all trains passing this sta tion, is required to sell tickets to all passengers boarding trains here, to is sue checks for all baggage, to answer multifarious questions regarding rates, train schedules, etc., and to maintain an intricate set of records and reports of the business of his of- flee. This clerk is employed by the railroad company and his first duty is to the railroad company, but he is permitted, when he can do so without interfering with his railroad work, to receive and transmit Western Union telegraph messages, for which he is paid small commission by the Vest ern Union.
 Naturally, under such conditions efficient telegraph service is a phy- sical impossibility. The operator may have partially completed copying a telegram of vital urgency, but if the train dispatcher calls him he must ''break" the sending operator and perhaps copy two or three train or ders and inform block signalmen in both directions of the progress of trains, In the meantime a crowd probably has assembled at the ticket window and several lengthy coupon tickets may have to be made out and sold and baggage checked. By the time the busy clerk can get back to his telegraph instruments he probably finds the Western Union wire in use between other stations, and when the sending operator is ready to work with Conway once more, he may again find the Conway operator busy selling tickets or dispatching trains and un- able to complete the receiving of the important message. Under such try ing circumstances commercial tele- yrams are not only subject to much delay, but are inaccurately tran
 cribed The ridiculousness of the situation is made more obvious when it is seen that the railroad has been employing an agent and six clerks to serve the public at the freight depot and only one clerk to serve sev- aral times as many patrons at the passenger station. This one clerk is 'lso required to dispatch trains, a position requiring constant and wig liant attention, and if all these duties do not occupy all of his time he is permitted to give his spare moments
 O Western Union telegraph busi- ness.
 Recognizing the impossibility of efficient telegraph service under such
 onditions, the Conway Commercial Club several months ago undertook to secure the separation of telegraph

CROP STILL BOOMING

From the best information that
can be gained the crop situation con-
tinueS excellent with the exception
of the few comparatively small areas
threatened by grasshoppers. Grain
and growing crops of all kinds, as
we'll as native hay and pasture, have
made wonderful growth and progress
toward maturity. Practically all grain
is in the head and the abundant mois-
ture that is stored in the soil should
enable it to fill. The days are again
hot after the cool period of the first
four days of the month, but there is
no hot wind and nothing apparent at
the present time, barring the hopper
menace mentioned, to prevent a gem
uine bumper crop.

THE DAIRY COW

The dairy cows a thing of charm;
she lifts the mortgage from the farm
and makes the farmers life more
sweet and sets him down on Easy
street. Where'er the dairy cow is
queen, a country prosperous is seen,
and dairymen, in joyful ranks, are
packing billions to the banks. Why
plug along the same old way, pro-
ducing nutmegs, prunes and hay, and
putting up a bankrupt wall? There
is a better method now-the method
of the dairy COW; this critter always
earns her keep, and piles up riches
while you sleep. So let US boost the
Holstein COW, which beats the old
breech-loading plow; the Guernsey
and the Jersey too, rs smooth as any
COW in view. Let's talk up diaries,
milk and cream the safest money
making scheme.-Walt Mason.
