da county, and serve as monument to the men who first fostered the enter prise
 Misrepresentation often serves as a stumbling block, and misunderstanding often offers opposition to any public improvement; but the paramount fact still stares us in the face that we must have better roads-and it becomes the highest duty of our good citizenship, to see to it that we DO have them.
 Think not alone of the few paltry dollars it takes to build them, but let the distress signals sounded amid the roar of the recent storm serve to re- mind you of our duty to humankind.
 Let not the voice of the demagogue or the designing politician carry you away from your responsibilities as a citizen, but rather let us come together in calm understanding of the coun try's need, and let us meet the issue lige the good true men we are.

DEAN KNAPP IS FRIEND
 OF CABINET MEMBER

The secretary of agriculture and Dean Bradford Knapp of the College are sure good friends that they call of Agriculture, University of Arkansas each other by their first names.
 Secretary Wallace's father and my father" said Dean Knapp, were farm CTS on neighboring farms in Iowa when the secretary and I were just boys. And not so very far away lived Uncle Tama' Wilson, who was Secretary of Agriculture for fiften years, from 1897 to 1913 These three men had been in timate friends since the eos.
 "For more than half the time the United States have had a Secretary of Agriculture, the position has been held by an Iowa man-and I have known every one of them intimately" Even as he spoke, Dean Knapp had in his p0ckett letter from Secretary Wallace just received Dear Bradford, it be gan and went on to wish good luck on the Arkansas farmers.

THE ROAD TO THE STORM

In this dark hour of death and cal amity discussion of any other public matter would be out place did it not form a connection with the grave sit ua tion in the storm wrecked neighbor- hood of Blevins
 When the mighty whirl wind took its 30 minutes after the news reached Prescott, hundreds of automobiles were hurryng to the scene carrying aid and comfort to the suffering and to the homeless Following the cyclone came the usual heavy downpour of rain, but the cars were able to skip along at the ate of 40 or 5O miles an hour over the rain drenched pike from here to Blew ns. The benefit of this pike is so ap- parent now. in that it permitted the doctors to quickly reach the injured and hurry them back to Prescott hospit- als.
 It enabled willing workers to reach the wreck in time to render aid such as only friendly hands can render in the hour of distress It made possible the salvation of two or three precious lives.
 Suppose the storm had struck in oth- CT sections where the automobiles or even buggies could not have reached the scene? Think of the long wait of the injured and dying in the distance where roads are impossible after hea- " rain and storm Imagine the scene at Emmet. Bodcaw. RosstOn, or Sutton, should these points suffer as did the Blevins section. The saving of sin gle life is worth the cost of pike road from one end of the county to the other. who will dispute the untold benefits of the Prescott Blevins road since the awful visitation of the storm king last Friday evening
 This is not written with any idea in view except to point out the blessings and the benefits that come to all the people alike through the avenue of good roads.
 The question of when and how to build them doesn't enter into this dis cussion now; we merely want to show the need of them, and then later on let the wide-awake, home-loving patriotic citizenship get together in this county and prepare plan of improvement that will rebound to the glory of old Neva-

THE CYCLONE

In the twisting, tearing timbers You can see its deadly hand Feel its hellish blast approaching As it sweeps across the land Rolling roaring, whirling madly Toward the homes where humans dwell Dipping down in dreadful fury More than mortal man can tell In a twinkling there's crashing And the awful work iS done As the victims of the storm king Are discovered one by one In the wreckage lies the father Who had vainly done his best, For the ma med and mangled mother And the babe upon her breast. On it sweeps OCT hill and valley Leaving sorrow in it's trail There is murder in it's moaning There is horror in it's gale Only those who lived. can tell you Of the cyclones ruthless wrath Those whose little homes were standing In the storm kings blackened path.

TEACHERS ARE URGED TO AT TEND NORMAL TRAINING SCHOOL

Dear Teacher:
 Practically all the states require normal training of their teachers. Ark ansas will soon have similar stand ard, in fact custom already has set the standard Because most of our high school superintendents require that their entire faculty be normal trained. The law requiring teachers to have normal training will soon follow and this summer will be good time to be gin to get ready to meet higher re- quirements. l hope the teachers of this county will not wait for the law 10 require them to take normal train tion; the county superintendents, and the presidents of the four agricultural schools have joined forces to give you four short term normal schools.
 Reasons why you should attend one of these normals:
 1. It will furnish a review in all the common school branches. enabling q teacher to get a better grade of licensa . ?. The state adopted text books will be used as texts (Take your books with you.)
 3. Methods of teaching all the com mon school branches will be empha- sized
 f. An opportunity will be given for observing good class room work.
 !. Tuition is free. Boar dis at cost. Total expenses need not exceed 5000. and may be less.
 The State Normal school at Conway and the University of Arkansas at Fay etteville will run summer schools as usual Both schools will be bigger and better than ever.
 Following the summer schools will come our own county institute, richer and better than it has ever been in its history In many ways it will meas ure up to the State Educational ASso- citation meetings One or two national chara cters will appear on the program.

 County Superintendent

Paragould, April 15.-Warren Otey, aged 70, died this afternoon as a result of poisoning from drinking coffee this morning, and his three granddaughters, Irene Gladys and Pearl. and the moth- CT of the girls, Mrs. Bob Otey, are all in critical condition from the same cause.

He did not drink any of the coffee
 Doctors and nurses are working with Mrs. Otey and her daughters, and phy- sicians are hopeful of their recovery
 Warren Otey prepared the coffee. He is said to have told physicians that he noticed something white in the pot as he poured in the coffee. I tis said he called Mrs. Otey's attention to it, but the latter failed to detect anything wrong with the coffee, and it was pre- pared and served Shortly after drink ing the beverage all the members of tho family, except Bob, became violently il
