BLESSINGS.

An exchange from which we least
expectel the acknowledgement says:
The fraternal orders are blessings.
They promote thrift, economy, sobriety,
without freezing the soul into selfish
ness, as is apt to be the case in the
usual struggle for wealth or high
social position. They bring men into
closer relations, and cherish those.feel-
ings that thrive and put forth blossoms
in each others welfare. They make
men thoughtful and helpful, expanding
the sentiments of love, charity and
good will, They teach Us the religion
that breaks bread to the hungry, gives
q cup of water toithe thirsty, watches
at the bed of the sick, visits the inn
the fatherless and widows ~
duties that are sadly neglected, and for
a long time were supposed TO be con-

BENTON HAS THE FIRST
 VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL

Benton has the distinction of hay ing the first daily vacation bible scooI ever established in Arkansas. It is under the auspices of the Pres byterian church. of which Rev. F. Nj. Wylie of Hot Springs is Educational director. The plan is to provide to and one-half hours of religious in struction daily for five days in the. for five weeks during the summer months for children between the age of 1 and II years, This will give the child 70 hours of bible study during the vacation period, which is mush more than usually enjoyed by child ren in even the most efficiently or ganized Sunday School
 The school at Benton opened May g with an enrolment of S5 which had increased ten days later to 179. The faculty is entirely voluntary and it has been found that there are many teachers and others capable of assist ing in the work who are ready and willing to volunteer their services. The children are taught music cal isthenics, sewing, craft work, such as the making of hammochs bookcases and other simple household articles, nd above all given thorough course II religious instruction.

OIL DEVELOPMENT IN
 ARK ANSAS ON INCREASE

Since January 10. the day on which the first gusher was brought in Fl Dorado. opening ID 6 new and marvellous oil field which has become the wonder of the age, there as been filed for record at Fl Dorado tot al of 125 charters of corporations of various kinds. most of which are for the development of thet oil industry. These corporations have 8 total cap italization Of sI2,61s,O00 The trem- endous volume of business that has been compressed into these four months is clearly shown by the fact during the seventeen years preced- ing. there has been only 76 corpora
 tions of all kinds filed in ElDorado.
 The oil development in Arkansas con tinues to enlrge and operations in Lawrence. Nevada, Independence and other counties. At Prescott there
 has been a grea interest in tests that will determine the outcome of the
 Sutton-B Bluff City and Rosston wells.
 In Independence county there are act
 i've operations under way at the Adams well. The Butler well spudd- ed in last week. has been sunk to little more than two hundred. The
 Cave City we'll in the north part of
 the county will spud in this week.
 In Lawrence county preparations are
 under way for a tsest to be made soon and several new interests have mani , feSted themselves in the leasing new
 areas. The Big Six Drilling Com
 pany. operating near Cave City will
 spud in during the week; the derrick | Is already up. Leasing in this sect ion continues with prospect for a test on the south side of the river. This
 should have the effect of bringing
 about great activity in Independence
 county during the next few months. Companies are also being formed to sink test wells on either side of the Boone and Newton county line

 our people many things, among which the ability to give literally. if not
 willingly, and to support humanitar- ian movements and agencies with
 their treasure. But one of the great est lessons of the war is that the war
 incurred tremendous debts which must

RECOMMENDS USE OF CRUDE
 OIL IN BUILDING OF ROADS

John T. Hopkins, of Little Rock
 who has resided in Pulaskicounty for nearly 50 years, in letter to Gov ernor McRae makes some suggestions relative to practical road building which. in view of the petroleum de- velopment of the state, should be giv- en careful attention by experts.
 He says that his fathe rworked in the Pennsylvania oil fields in the early days and that crude oil was used to mix with the earth in roads. It was thoroughly worked into the soil whicvh was then dragged and packed, maging the finest roads in the world. The governors correspondent efti- mates the cost of preparing the road bed at SIP a mile. \ barrel Of crude oil properly distributed would be el- ough for one furrow 66 feet long There were 5 furruwS n the road bed and 1t would therefore require 8 barrels of oil for every 66 feet of road. or 264O barrels of oil for each mile of road way He says further n support of his theory: Through the papers I have learned that 50 cents a barrel Is the best offers the pro- ducers have for their erud oil This would make the cost Der mile for crude oil S1320 Add this this this so the cost of teams and labor and we have S14S2 per mile for the finished road. Rotary disc harrows and road road rollers would reduce this cost. California and Colorado have adapted this system and it has done more taan all things else to give them their re- nown as health resorts No disease germ can live five minutes on Q pet roleum roadway. The system might be employed in all of our river bottom land and all south of the Arkansas riv- CT. There is an ample supply of sand and other raw materials and in addition such road beds are noiseless free of dust and far easier on vehicles than any other road. If taken hold of at once 1t will enable our oil men tc
 pull through and at the same time keep our money among. us.
