past week, but improving.
Mr.. Will Dotson has had an at.
tack of malarial fever and reported
very little improved. Also Mrs
Dotson is real sick of fever.
There was singing at Cold Water
last Sunday evening.
We understand that there will be
an all-day singing at Olive Branch

ing at Palmersville the fifth Sun.
day. Several singers from this part
usually attend the singings, es'
pecially when they are the "all-day'
kind.
We learn that they are making
up a singing school for the class OF
Tumbling and Elbethel to begin in
about two weeks. This is a good
thing for the community, as they
train a lot of the youngsters to help
make a larger class.
The farmers are busy digging
Eaters and we think that the bulk
of the crop will be housed this week.
The. yield is not more than half of
normal, while a few report heavy
yields.
Many from this neighborhood at
tended the community fair at Glea-
son last Saturday and report a nice
exhibit of farm products, as well as
livestock, etc.
Rev. C. H. Bell, of Oklahoma, is
visiting friends and kinsfolk this
week. His mother will probably go
back with him to make her home
there.
A little more than two months
until Christmas, so it will take some
hustling with the farm work so as
TO be able to take in the Christmas
holidays. Everybody will want to
give somebody else a present to re-
member them by, but the real rea-
son why we celebrate Christmas
should not be lost sight of.

Home Burns; Caught
Fire Second Time

The home Of Mrs. Galley, widow
of the late Monroe Galley, living in
the 18th district, was burned to the
ground last Saturday afternoon. All
the contents were lost. Mrs. Galley
carried $1,000 insurance. The
fire originated from defective
flue.
In the forenoon the building
caught fire from the flue, but the
timely arrival of neighbors, sum-
moned by the alarm of fire, saved
it from destruction. Little damage
was done at this time, but in the
afternoon, when most of the men
folks of the neighborhood were
either far away in the fields or at
town, the building caught second
time and burned before anything of
value could be gotten out.

CLIFFORD ABER-
4 NATHY IN Tolls
Deputy Will Dun En- Route for
Dodge, Kans. to Bring Him
Back. Forgery Charge

With the arrest of Clifford Alb
ernathy at Dodge City, Kan, few
days ago a smooth confidence game
was exposed and the alleged offend
er apprehended. H..
Clifford Alternately was reared in
Weakley county and some Is
months ago was sent by the circuit
court here to a state reformatory,
after conviction upon a charge OF
robbery. He remained in the insti-
tuition but a few days, when ne
made his escape. Passing through
his home county here, it is alleged
that he robbed the store Of Tom
johnson at Austin Springs. Some
four weeks ago A. C.. Bondurant,
prominent citizen of the county and
lumber dealer went to Chicago on
business. After an absence OF one
week a letter from Kansas City,
Mo-. signed A. C. Bondurant ad-
dressed to the City State Bank at
Martin requesting the bank to
send draft for 500 to Wayne D.
Scott at Kansas City. This was
forwarded by the bank as requested.
Within week another order came
to the same bank, addressed in the
same manner, requesting that an
other $500 be sent, this time to
Dodge City, Kan, to Wayne b.
Scott. This amount was also
forwarded. A few days. since
similar request came to the bank
also signed A. C. Bondurant, ask
ing that $1,000 be sent to an ad-
dress in St. Louis.
The bank then became suspicious
In the meantime Bondurant had re-
turned home and the bank officials
sent for him, and were soon con-
WINGED that Bondurant had not been
in either Kansas or St. Louis, and
that the bank was the victim OF
clever and adriot forgery. Hand
writing experts pronounced the sig
nature of Bondurant to letters and
drafts as perfect, and Bondurant
stated that he would almost be-
forced to say the handwriting was
his if he did not know that he mad
not been to these places or exc
cuted the drafts and letters. The
bank called to its assistance de-
tective agency, and that agency got
on the track of the alleged forger
and located him at Dodge CITY,
Kan where he was under arrest Tor
forgery.
Deputy Sheriff wip Dunn left
here Tuesday for Dodge, Kans''
where Alternately is being held on
a forgery charge, to bring the
voung man back here. He agrees
to return without requisition.

Consumed by Fire

A tenant house on the Dock
Marcum farm, southwest of Sharon,
was burned Sunday afternoon, to-
gether with practically all the

BELLY DODD, THE MAN WHO
 SCALPS HIMSELF"

Some historians have asserted that Belzy Dodd was myth, but some of the old scouts who knew him well do not agree with them. Ask some of the Injuns who raided along the old Santa Fe trail about The Man Who Scalps Himself,'" they said, with . laugh. Like California Joe, Dodd was practical joker, and one of his Jokes once defeated a band of Indians and saved a wagon train from the horrors of massacre.
 Dodd was guiding caravan of traders to Santa Fe. At night they parked their wagons in circle with the mules corralled inside to prevent their being stampeded If Indians at tacked. Outside the circle guards were posted to give warning at the nrst appearance of a savage
 Just before daylight one morning the traders were awakened by shot, and rushed out to find a guard lying wounded on the ground. In the next instant a band os Pawnees charged down on the train. A fierce battle fol- lowed. The Indians who attacked the train were re-enforced by a larger band and in a short time it became evident that the train, whose defend CTS were hopelessly outnumbered, was doomed. Suddenly Dodd, whose rifle had knocked down more than one painted warrior, threw aside his weap- .l wagons
 Rowling fendishly, he rushed into the midst of the charging Pawnees. Before the Indians could recover from their surprise at his bold act, Dodd whipped out his long knife, ran 1t around the edge of his hair, and with B wild yell, tore of his shock of black hair and waved 1t about his head.
 It was too much for the Pawnees. With a howl of terror, they broke and ran. Dodd was swift runner-he could hold his own in running beside galloping buffalo, 1t is said-and he pursued the frightened redskins shrieking and waving his scalp" un- til they left him far behind. A wig had saved wagon train!
 After that time any wagon train which Belzy Dodd guided over the Santa Fe trail was safe if the Indians saw Dodd in the lead. They had nc use for a man who could scalp him self and still live.
 What became of Belzy Dodd ant where he died is as much a myster, as his birth and early life. He playe, bis little role as comedian in tn, drama of the West. and then, like man, greater actors, he passed on and wa soon forgotten.

CHICAGO PROJECTS
 PARKWAY OVER LAKE
(By the Assue1ated Press,

Chicago, Aug. 1.-Blocked from the lake along more than half it's south side, Chicago has started work to jump the intervening railroad tracks by building a five mile parkway out in the lake.
 This is to run from 18th to 55th street, connecting downtown lake front improvement with Jackson Park, and adding the missing link of 40 mile drive running along or within stones throw of Lake Mich. igan.
 A start is being made this summer on the initial fill-in on the present shore line and on a necessary break water. It is hoped to complete the first part of the shore fill before the year runs out. This will eventually add strip of land about 60 feet wide and five miles long beyond the rail- road tracks. The made land will be converted into a park.
 The much larger task of construc- tion of long narrow park in the waters of the lake may be started next spring. It will be built about 18,OOO feet from the present shore line. Its east side will give Chica- goans the uninterrupted view of the

NEED MORE HOMES
 FOR CLUB GUESTS

More homes in Conway are needed for the 300 or more members of the boys and girls farm clubs who will be here Thursday and Friday for the an- nual rally. Some work already has been done by the woman's auxiliary committee, but the response has not been as general as it was last year when the clubs held very successful meeting here. The committee of the auxiliary is composed of Mrs Joe Loeb chairman, and Mesdames l.. s. Duna- way, c. E. Durham, Willia Van Walk enburgh, Ceicil Martin, Hugh Pence, Faber Hicks, J. z. Bailey and Chester Markham. A canvass of the city is being made today, and persons not called upon are requested to phone Mrs. Loeb or any member of the com- mittee and say how many of the young guests can be entertained.
 The club members will arrive here Thursday morning and remain until Friday afternoon. Dinner will be served them at the courthouse on both days, Thursday by the ladies of the First Methodist church, and Friday by the ladies of the First Baptist and Presbyterian churches As result, families entertaining club members will furnish them only two meals and lodgings overnight
 Club members here for the rally last year provided the city with one of the most enjoyable events of the summer, and the auxiliary plans to make the 1921 meeting a repeater. Courses of instruction in their work as we'll as entertainment features will be pro- vlded for the young visitors.

 "The sales tax plan is the biggest cooperative movement Conway has ever put on. It is already giving the city some valuable advertising. Not only so, it promises to be the means of keeping our children in school for another year. The board expresses the sincere wish that all the critics will soon join the big army of patrons who are willing to cooperate in this worthy enterprise which costs nobody very much, but which will bring large returns both to the children of the and to the town as a bus mess center. Let's make it unani- mous."

 TRANS-OCEAN CRUISE
(By the Associated Press)

Halifax, Aug. 1.-Fog shrouding the headlands, the roar of the Atlantic on the lodges of Sambro, 1000 miles of ocean ahead, and the Keith, 13-ton yacht, white dot on the blue Hali- fax, was away for England. On July 13 fair breeze chopping up the ap- proach of the ocean with whose pow CTS she is now wrestling, the light cutter sailed out of Halifax for the river Crouch with Sidney C. Hough ton, commander and owner; Howar M. Bell and Clifford Willard, New York; Dwight DeWolf, Halifax; ana Mortimer Jordan, Barbdian cook.
 Twenty-four days these sangune five expect to be on the ocean, but many wind struck veteran of the Nova Scotia coast shakes his head and says with ominous meaning, "mebbe so." At any rate Commander Tough ton is commodore of the Crouch Yacht Club and he intends to enter his boat in the cruiser yacht races there this summer.
 The course the Neith is taking will lead her in north easterly direction toward Northumberland, sighting Cape Race; thence to the south coast of Ireland, to Scilly Island, up the English channel, through the stralts of Dover, across the mouth of the Thames estuary and to the river Chrouch. Unless it is absolutely nec- essary the Keith will make no port un- til she arrives at her destination.

c UMMERTIME sets many lovely O scenes as backgrounds for the summer girl, or anyone else who takes these backgrounds into consideration when choosing her frocks. For most of us, practical clothes for this work aday world in which we find ourselves are as important at least as those that are decorative, and it happens that the ginghams chambrays, percales and other dependable cottons that make our frocks for work have attractions equal to those that make the dresses of our leisure hours. Special designers plan these dresses on lines that prove as charming as any others.
 But the business of living requires us to have frocks for play and leisure, and summer brings with 1t the crisp diaphanous stuffs that belong to it alone. Organdie and dotted swiss have their day under the skies of summer and she Is wise who makes the most of il.
