4 Tribute

The following poetic tribute to
mothers was composed and read
at the Mothers Day services in the
First Methodist Sunday school by
J. r. Adams:
Words only tell 80 much, and then
they're done:
Tributes pass not where ones ex-
preston dies
But there's no ban upon our
thoughts. and one
May think and love past where his
last word lies.
One can make up pretty phrases
when come dreams OF moon and
stars,
And the twilight's inspiration makes
sweet notes for music bars:
Junetime's roses hold their per-
fume in the liquid of the lines
That were penned when June was
with us and the roses and the
vines
But one needs TO inspiration like
the roses. or the light
That the stars send down to soften
out the blackness of the night.
When one thinks TO write Of Mother.
What could inspiration lend?
To the tenderness that wraps you
in a cloak of memories.
AS you go away back yonder where
the old road makes a bend,
And you find yourself familiar with
the rustic in the trees?
sad? Who ever dared TO tell you
you were sad to be back there
Where the whole world likes you
better and your darkest days
are fair?
Might as well to say you're angered
when your mouth is parched
and dry
And ieaping spring OF water makes
a picture in your eye!
other folks can treat you kindly.
other folks can love you, too;
other folks can bring you sunshine
when your days are dark and
blue;
other folks can guide your sailing
where the waves are not so
rough
But there comes time when other
folks all say they've done
enough.
Now your Mother. why, she doesn't
stop 10 think how much she's
done;
It's a JOY 10 her 10 help you. and the
sympathy she shows
Is the same for Number TvraptN,''
as 1t was for Number One
And the Sameness never alters. shs
Just understands and knows
Folks grow up. They can't be little
all the days they're on the
earth.
For the world asks something Of
them and they have TO prove
their worth.
And some OF them have 20 wander
far away from where they were
When they knew their mothers bet
ter-for. a mother. it's 10 her
That the baby takes its troubles: yet.
the sweetest thing we know
Is a journey with our fancies where
our fancies like to so.

Storm Plays HaDOc
 With Arkansds Crops

Hope, April 17.-No additions have been made to the list of dead and injured in the tornado which swept through Hampstead county Friday afternoon, in which hundreds were left homeless and without food or clothing.
 The situation is well in hand, and relief work is being handled in a most thorough and systematic man. ner, and the needs of the unfor- tunates are being supplied just as fast as relief workers can get around.
 The relief work is under the di- rection of a committee composed of County Judge Wash Houston, chairman; Hon. James H. McColum, R. H. Ethridge and c. A. Tunnell, secretary of the Chamber of Com merce. This committee is being as- sisted in the work by the local Red Cross Society, which has establish ed headquarters at the Chamber of Commerce rooms, where they will receive contributions of clothing, money, bedding and other articles which will be distributed among the sufferers.
 Capt. Basil Newton of Company A, Arkansas National Guard, has been notified through Adjt.- Gen. V. A. Beeson's department that he will be supplied with 100 tents and 15O cots, and they are expected to ar rive here tonight. Capt Newton has arranged for trucks and has a squad of 30 guardsmen in readiness to be- gin the distribution of the tents and cots among the 100 homeless fam lilies in the storm stricken areas.
 A telegram was received by the local Chamber of Commerce from the Jonesboro Chamber of Com merce and the mayor of Jonesboro, offering assistance, but the situa- 'tion will be handled locally without asking outside assistance, if it is possible to do so.
 Several thousand dollars has been raised for the relief of the suffer- CTS, which will be used in giving temporary relief. The work of tab ulating complete list of the needy IS being done systematically and with dispatch and supplies of all kinds will be distributed from this list. The real task, however, which confronts the people of Hope and Hampstead county will come later, which will be putting the sufferers back on their feet and re-establish- ing them in homes. Everything in the path of the storm was com pletely devastated and loss will ap- proximate $1,000,000. The storm swept area was visited by thousands of sight-seers today.
 The dead have been buried and the injured are being we'll cared for.

NelU ReserUOir
 For Water PLdnt

Albert La Gendre, manager of the light and water plants, stated yesterday the company was install ing a new pump at the water plant and that on account of the instaila- tion work it will be necessary from time to time to cut the water off. He requests this announcement so consumers may know why they are deprived of water service at inter vals.
 In addition to the installation of the new pump it is understood a new reservoir will be constructed in the near future. pr. E. D. Wall, city health officer, and Dr. O. l.. Williamson, county health officer, stated at the meeting of the Lions Club the other day it was absolutely imperative that a new reservoir be built on account of leaks in the old reservoir which caused possible source of contamination. The water district has ample funds on hand with which to construct the new reservoir, to cost approximate ly S4,000 and it was urged that this be done at once so there would be ample storage capacity for the ap- preaching summer months and for the additional and more important reason that it will enable the health officers to locate the source of con tamination. President Newborn of the Lions Club appointed a com mittee of pr. Williamson, Dr. Wall, Hugh Nixon, Morris Lesser and Chas. Mckee to confer with the water commissioners and urge inn mediate action in the construction of the new reservoir. In the mean time the plans for the enlarging of the water district and for the ex- tension of the mains to all sections of the city not now served with city water will be matured, bonds float ed and the entire system rebuilt.

from her parents home at Neosho, 20 miles south of here. They were married here at Carthage and they made their home here for several years because Mrs. Neff's father refused to grant the young couple his forgiveness.
 Finally Mr. Neff's health failed and physicians advised him that he was suffering from tuberculosis. Ac- cordingly he went to Colorado to live with his parents and Mrs. Neff returned to her parents home. Both now say they wrote regularly for more than year, but neither ever received any of the letter intended for them.
 Mrs. Neff, after several years of mourning for her husband, whom she believed had died, married AL bert Barnes and together they rear ed and educated her two sons, Web ster and Henry, now 21 and 19 years old, respectively. Mir. Neff also married after lapse of several years. On the death of the second Mrs. Neff, year ago, he decided

Orders Big Cut By
 Fire Underwriters

Little Rock, April 19.-Declaring that the underwriting profit of fire insurance companies in Arkansas for the last five years has been 19.58 per cent. Insurance Commissioner Bullion yesterday ordered a 34.58 per cent. cut in the rates to bring them down to the five per cent. to which they are limited by the act of the 1919 legislature. The order is effective May 6.
 A reduction of 6-21 per cent or dered in April, 1920, is now in lit igation and it practically is certain that MT. Bulhon's new order also will be contested in the courts. The point in litigation is whether the methods used by the insurance de- partment in reaching the basis of profit are accurate and equitable. In computing underwriting profits for any given period the losses and expenses paid by the company are deducted by the department from the premiums received, the balance representing the profit.
 The contention of the insurance companies in their case now pending in Pulaski Chancery Court is that the losses and expenses incurred during the period should be deduct ed from the premiums earned. The point has never been settled in the courts, Mir. Bullion said, and Ar kansas probably will furnish the first precedent.
 MT. Bullion said that the total excess profits over the five years investigated by the department, is in excess of $3,00O,00O. The fig ures used in making the reduction covering the five-year period are as follows: Net proceeds for five-year period, S27,402,617; net losses, $12,444,S61; expenses paid, $9,592,4 ,497; loss ratio, 45.41 per cent; expense ratio, 35.01 per cent, and underwriting profit 19.5S per cent, or 14.58 per cent more profits than the law allows.

Il was very nervous before taking
Tanlac, and was so restless that many

dreams the whole night long.
But Tanlac has remedied this trou-

as a clock now, and 1 sleep like a log
every night. In fact, I'm feeling like
a new man. 1 encouraged my wife to
take the medicine, too, and she has
