MOTHERS DAY IN MENA. Second Sunday in May Will Be Re membered by Sons and Daughters.

Sons and daughters of Mena are not going to forget Mothers Day this year, judging from the number of in quiries that have been made as to the event. For the benefit of those who are confused as to the exact date and the origin of the day, the follow ing is submitted:
 The second Sunday in May has been legally fixed as Mothers Day by pro- clamation issued by former President Wilson May g, 1914. Prior to that g resolution had passed the House and Senate commenting Mothers Day. In 1913 the Legislature of Nebraska made Mothers Day state flag day. In 1914, Hon. J. Thomas Hefiin, at the request of the founder of Mothers Day, Miss Anna Jarvis, introduced the joint resolution, which was agreed to, whereby the president should desig- nate by annual proclamation the sec ond Sunday in May as Mothers Day and request the display of the Amer ican flag on all government build ings, homes and other suitable places. The United States is the first nation in the world to give such a national patriotic honor and tribute to the mothers of nation.

Marital Ties Mix Relationship.

The death of Mrs. s. A. York has served to call attention to an unusual relationship, in that her oldest daugh- ter is also her daughter-in-law. When Mrs. York was married to M. V. York, she had a daughter. MT. York had several sons, among whom was J. A. York, head of the York shoe shop on DeQueen street. In the course of time, J. A. married the daughter of his stepmother, which in effect made Mrs. York the daughter in-law of her own mother not to men tion various other unusual relation shin tanples.

APPEALS ID KEEP
 UP ASSESSMENTS
Monroe Smith of Arkansas Tax Com. mission Points to Necessity for Well fare of Schools--WouId Go Easy
 on Cotton Owning Farmers.

Appealing to the taxing officials of the county not reduce the valuation of property this year, Monroe Smith, president of Arkansas Tax Commis- sion, spoke to small but interested audience at the court house Saturday afternoon and explained the necessity for keeping values up to their present level. President Smith showed that fully two-thirds of all regular taxes now paid go for purely local pur- poses, principally to schools and local governmental purposes. To reduce valuations this year would be to de- prive these important agencies of needed support. The speaker also called attention to the dog tax and rec commended it's collection not because it helps lessen stock losses, but be- cause what was left in the fund event ually found it's way to the road fund
 Mir. Smith also suggested that the as- sessors and township boards not in- vestigate too closely into the owner ship of bales of cotton. He believed the farmers had already lost enough on the staple. The head of the tax commission also explained that it was the duty of the local officials to fis values of both real and personal prop, erty and not the owner. President Smith also announced that the com. mission would stand squarely back o1 and support the work of the local tax. ing authorities. Ownership of prop erty is determined May l and every thing on hand that date must bs listed for taxation. Assessor Grady Forgy arranged the meeting, whicf was attended by only few of ths various township assessment boards A committee from the Mena Commer ciai Club was also iii attendance.
