CUARDSMEN STAGE
 TARGET PRACTICE

Members of the headquarters com- pany of the Arkansas national guard last night had the first of their series of target practices, which will here after be given every drill night. Am munition for the guardsmen is en route, and five rounds to the man will be allowed on 25, 50 and 75foot ranges. At last nights shoot, Garth Akridge led with P hits out of 25, followed by D. o. Harton, IT,, and Seth Duncan, 21, Martin Wilson, Will liam Brown, and John R. Simmons, 20.
 As the practices are held, the head quarters men will be divided into teams which will compete for leadership. From these teams a "crack" team will be picked and a challenge sent other guard companies in Arkansas for a match. Some of the local marksmen may shoot we'll enough for compati- tion in the national guard match each year at Camp Perry, Ohio.

MAN SINGLE HANDED
 ERECTS MANY HOUSES
(6y the As,ocyaten Press)

New York, Sept. 16.-Although en- tering his 72nd year with enough money to retire and take up golf. Frank D. Johnson of Brooklyn con- tinues to erect houses all by himself and sell them. For the last 50 years he has worked 10 to 12 hours a day at this pursuit and now is putting up one-man house on Gravesend avenue. No hands but his own have ever touch ed the structure since he started it.
 Last July he was working on the house, it was struck by lightning. Digging himself out of the debris, Johnson rubbed some arnica into his bruises and was on the job the next day.
 Born in Boston of Revolutionary War stock, Johnson expects to live to 100 He has all but two of his origi- nal teeth and scarcely hair has fallen from his head. "I could have knocked off and taken it easy, but if had done so I would now be reposing in some graveyard" was the way John son put it.
 Besides being a stonemason, brick layer, carpenter, plasterer, plumber. tinsmith, painter, paper hanger, dec crater, glazier, electrician, wood carv. CT and cabinet maker, Johnson studied all the ins and outs of laws govern ing real estate, so as to save all title searching and allied fees.

fBy the Associated Pressl

Little Rock, Sept. 16.-The attorney general today began the filing of suits for the recovery of war equip ment which has been sold or leased by the state highway department, under the former administration to pprivate individuals.
 An investigation has been conduct ed for some months by representa- tives of the federal government and as a result it is said that there have been from 50 to 75 cases found in which it is claimed that improper dis position was made of the equipment. The law provides that the title tc the property must be retained in the state and that it cannot be sold or leased to private individuals, but must be leased to counties or road districts for the purpose of aiding in the construction of public highways.
 The suits are in the nature of re- plevins for the recovery of the prop erty, and other suits are to follow rapidly until proceedings are brought for the return of all equipment which has not been properly leased.
 It is stated that in one instance in- dividuals secured two Packard trucks valued at S3,000 each at $50 each, the trucks being practically new and unused. They were not, it is alleged for the use of the county.
 The law provides that such equip ment may be sold to individuals when not serviceable for highway use, but it is charged that in many instances property so sold has been new and unused and could not be considered unserviceable

PUBLIC SCHOOLS
 TO OPEN MONDAY

Completing their five-day institute at noon today, the faculty of the Con- way public school is this afternoon registering new pupils, in order to simplify the work of classification when the annual sesson of the school begins next Monday morning at $40 o'clock.
 Supt. R. E. Womack said today he would like to set at rest a number of wild rumors as to the next session of the school. He has been asked many times in the pest few years, he said, as to rates of tuition, restriction of admission and other new regulations reported to have been put into effect.
 "The school will be open free of charge to all eligible pupils under the same regulations that have always prevailed, Superintendent Wonack said. "There will be no tuition charge and no change in the general regula- tions of the school. Until the sales and luxury taxes were adopted there was of course doubt as to whether any free school at all could be main- tained, but the success of the volun- tary tax plan seems now assured and based on its continuance the local banks will finance the cost of the con- ing session as they have done in the past"

J. s. HAS 100000
 JOBLESS WAR VETS
(By the Associated Presa,

Indianapolis, Ind, Sept. 16-A sur vey conducted by the American Le- zion through 1000 posts discloses that between 600,000 and 100000 vet erans of the world war are out of en- ployment, it was announced last night. The Legion's investigation shows that Pennsylvania alone reported 150,000 ex-soldiers out of work. New York has 100000, Illinois 35,O00 and Mass achusetts 3O,000, Michigan 30,00O.
 Georgia was the only state to re- port that unemployment was not gen. eral enough to require aid from the legion.
 The American Legion Weekly, in it's issue today will say that Figures alone do not tell the plight of the American unemployed veterans, for the greater part of these jobless ex- soldiers and ex-sailors are not only out of work but are engaged at this moment in a struggle for existence with their backs to the wall of cir cumstance."
 Stating that the blight of the vet erans IS serious enough today and that winter is just around the corner" the Weekly continues: "All over the United States the American Legion is working to meet this new emergency. It is not altogether a new problem for most of the posts, for they have long had employment officers and have systematically helped their mem- bers obtain jobs. The problem has new become one of volume. Facilities that enabled a post to place three or a dozen men in jobs weekly do not meet the requirements when hundreds of veterans are on the unemployment lists and open jobs have almost van ished. The problem has also become one largely of relief"

SUFFRAGE EARLY
 ADVOCATED HERE BEFORE CIRCLE IN 1886
Dr. Tydings, Local Physician, Spoke for Equal Ballot, Mindful of
 Adverse Oppinion.

Discussion of public and similar topics by a circle of Conway citizens
 along about 1886 need not suffer by
 comparison with what is heard in most up-to-date clubs and organiza- tions of the present day. A paper by Dr. Oliver Tydings. then a resident of Conway but now at Chicago, furnish es an Illuminating sidelight on the work of the literary circle before which he discussed woman suffrage. Jo Frauenthal was also a member of the circle, and a copy of Dr. Tydings paper, recently found among his ef- fleets, was kindly loaned by him to the Log Cabin Democrat as thing of in- terest to many Conway residents.
 The subject of woman suffrage was selected by the speaker and MT. Frau enthal as the circle topic for one of the meetings held in 1886, and in his Introductory remarks, Dr. Tydings termed it one of the live issues of the day and predicted that many of those present would live to see it settled in the affirmative. To support his advocacy of equal suffrage, the speak CT treated in his argument: Woman's equality before God; the republican form of government; the ballot as the only means of controlling the interest of our government, and that every free moral agent should have a voice in that which concerns him.
 On his first point, the speaker re- counted some of the work of women noted in history and concludes with this statement: "Show me house. hold where boys and girls have en- joyed like advantages. and 1 will show you in the women of that household more culture, more refinement, more of everything upon which depends the happiness of man, than you can dis cover in the men. Naturally of keen perception, the woman is ever alive to the interests of others, even though by others oppressed, thus fulfilling Gods promise in her that she should be mans help mate, and nowhere do I iAAAN iS iNNOluth liidl sUt SllOulu De Ills slave"
 The second popint of argument is treated more at length, it being held that woman has entered creditably into other fields of endeavor and work and could reasonably be expected tc give a good account of her use of the ballot. Moreover, the entry of woman would have a salutary effect in curb ing the vicious in government, and "so long as the masses of our men and women are pure, so long as we cultivate that love of peace and or. der, so long is it possible by one grand sweep to accomplish all we re- quire to make our polling places such that woman could with as much pro- priety express an opinion there as she could in any private home or sci entific body"
 Small consideration is given the negative argument that should woman be given the ballot, she would of ne. cessity be obligated to share equally the burden of war with man. Woman has always borne an equal burden in
The log cabin Democrat., 1921-09-16

wartime, Dr. Tydings said, but if that is to be urged as an objection, why not urge it against all non-com- batants and allow a voice in the ad. ministration of our affairs only to those who fight for our defense" Two other points are also considered brief ly by the speaker in concluding his paper.
 At several points of his paper, Dr. Tydings admitted the fact that sui frage in those days in all likelihood would be considered an "erratic crea- ture." and he counseled his hearers against holding the question as too trivial for serious thought. Do not treat the matter lightly" he warned. Remember and beware lest her ac- cumulated wrongs shall rise noun tains high and like Ebal, the Jewish mount of cursing, shall serve as a basis upon which some averaging an gel may stand and shower her curses upon the author of her wrongs. God forbid. Let us hope for the triumph of equality and justice, and do all we can to speed the day when man and woman, hand in hand, can together go forth to the fulfillment of the divine law which the Creator of the universe marked when He said it is not well for man to be alone'.'
