MRS. J. M. BERRY.

Died at her home in Springfield, Ark, Friday, March A, Mrs. Lima Sellers Berry, widow of the late J. NJ. Berry, of that place. She was born July 26, 1851, married J. NJ. Berry January II, 1869, and was left a wid- ow by him death December 13, 1919. She was the mother of six children, five of whom, Will A., of Conway, Misses Della and Minnie of Spring field, Walter and Mrs. Edd Carroll, of Konawa, Okla, are left to grieve their loss.
 She was a native of Tennessee, but had spent her life in this state, her mother having removed to Woodruff county soon after the death of her husband when the subject of this sketch was about three years of age. The mother died soon afterwards, and she made her home with a married sister until she married in 1869.
 She joined the Christian church in early life, and endeavored to follow her Savior's teachings as she under olOOu tlielu lIOll lTdU time untll her going away Friday. She had been a sufferer from cancer on hsr right cheek for nearly five years, but never considered it as anything serious un- til about IS months ago when it be- came so painful that she began to consult specialists for it's treatment, but found no relief, until her suffer- ings became so intense that her frail body could endure it no longer, and yielded to it's pains just at high noon last Friday.
 She was never heard to complain but often expressed her readiness for the end which she realized some months ago was fast coming. She bore her sufferings as none but a | true Christian could, and her remains were laid to rest beside those of her husband Saturday afternoon in the Springfield cemetery, Rev. F. o stobaugh Of Center Ridge conducting the funeral service. Her life was a
 model for her children to follow.

43 TRAINLOADS FOOD
 GIFT OF AMERICANS
(By the Associated Pressl

Warsaw, March 27.-lt would take a freight train 43 miles long to carry the American food distributed to hungry polish children since 1919, ac- cording to figures shown in the graphical exposition given here by the American relief administra tion. Large crowds are visiting the exposition.
 The exhibits show that 1,072,184 tons of food were given Polish chil- dren from April, 1919, when the Hoover mission began its work here to January 1, last. This supplied 67O,- 0O0,00O meals, at an actual cost of about two American cents meal. On account of the enormous need to be met, however, these rations equall- ed only about one-third of the food required by normal child.
 The money value of this three year food distribution runs over ESQ., OO0,000. The Polish government SUD- piled one-third of this, mostly in flour and other produce. On June l the American child-feeding operations will cease but plans are already made for their continuance by the Poles.

IMMIGRATION TIDE
 TURNING THIS WAY

Little Rock, March 27.-So rapidly is the wonderful story of Arkansas, the wonder state," travelling over the United States that the tide of immigration has truly turned this way. The big colonization companies have representatives in Arkansas seeking suitable tracts of land for the establishment of colonies. Ralph L. Huyck, representing Manning & Company of St. Louis, Chicago and Kansas City, has been in Arkansas for two weeks and the Arkansas Ad- vancement Association is assisting him in securing land where the col onists will thrive from the beginning MT. Huyck has three classes of farm CTS and the Arkansas Advancement Association has advised that three different locations be secured in or der that the colonists be located upon land similar to that which he is eav- ing. MT. Huyck has secured an op- tion on large tract of land in Mis- slssippi county, considerable DOT llon o1 which IS already under cultl- vation and the balance has been part ly cleared. This will be offered to farmers of Iowa, Illinois, Indiana and of the upper Mississippi valley. MT. Huyck is now in eastern Arkan- sas with a possibility of making an- other extensive purchase in the alllu- vial section.
 He will then visit the southwestern portion of the state with the inten- tion of getting land for truck gard eners. Another large tract will be purchased in northwest Arkansas which will be disposed of to horti- culturists. MT. Huyck has already been well over the state and says that Arkansas lands will come nearer to fulfilling the claims of real estate dealers than any state he has ever visited.

Vilonia, Ark, March 27.

By John R. Cox, Waldron, Ark.
 Uncle Sam has been very explicit and exhaustive in instructing rural carriers regarding their duties to the end that greater efficiency on the route may be attained, but it occurs to me that the paternal old gent ought to direct his attention now to the education of accommodated pat rons concerning their personal obli- gation to the R. F. D. service.
 These beneficiaries of government al favors are in duty bound to recip- rocate and lend all aid possible in the true spirit of team work, but we can not expect them to do their part un- less they receive official information and encouragement.
 Sections of the postal laws and regulations governing the proper po- sition and erection of mail boxes, the maintenance of passable route roads at all seasons, the stamping of mail deposited for collection, etc., should be familiar to every patron if there Is to be intelligent cooperation be- tween carrier and patrons.
 Patrons expect the carrier to de- liver their mail each day on sched- ule time, but many of them do not seem to realize that prompt service is contingent upon favorable work ing conditions, for which the patrons themselves are largely responsible.
 Many of them evince little or no interest in the agitation for good roads, yet they fret and fume when the carrier is delayed by broken vehicle or other results of bad roads They selfshly erect their mail boxes to suit their own convenience and not to facilitate the delivery and collection of the mail.
 Instead of previously supplying themselves with stamps, postals or stamped envelopes, they prefer to stuff the box with unstamped mail matter and then toss a handful of pennies into the box for the carrier to fish out at his leisure and vexation
 Of course they never stop to think that it is an imposition upon good nature to expect the carrier to waste his saliva in licking their stamps or to expect him to keep sweet and good natured while hunting for coppers which spill out of shaky old boxes and get lost in the mud or snow.
 Daniel Webster said that favors conferred impose on men an obliga- ton to make suitable returns; hence it seems to be high time that some patrons on rural routes get wise to the moral and civic obligations which devolve upon them. When one gets something for nothing it is seldom appreciated.

GOOD GRASS SOD ON ORCHARD
Trees Suffer From Lack of Moisture and There Is Temptation to
 Turn Stock in.

Where there is good grass sod on the orchard, the trees not only suffer loss of moisture, but there Is con stant temptation to turn stock into the orchard during rush times, or when the main pastures are short. This is always unsatisfactory, because the trees are going to be damaged more or less, even though average precau- tions are taken to protect them. If any stock at all is given the run of the orchard, poultry is the best, as being least injurious to the trees and fowls constantly enrich the soil in the elements particularly necessary for fruit production. But even then the advantage is very slight.

THE RIGHT THING
 af the
 RIGHT TIME By MARY MARSHALL DUFFEE
INVITATIONS

And I'll request your presence.-shake- speare.
 HERE is nice little problem in A 4 etiquette that may perplex some of the brides who are making plans for spring weddings.
 Suppose, for instance, that a woman of mature years and independent position in life who possessed no near relatives is about to be married, and suppose because of the fact that she is without family ties she herself must make all those arrangements for the wedding that would usually devolve upon the brides mother or aunt or other woman relative. It may be that she is to be married at church and that she wants to invite her friends and her husband-elects friends to the ceremony and to a wedding breakfast or supper following the ceremony at her own home where she has lived with no other companion save an old and trusted servant, or it may be that she and her bridegroom want to en- J hotel wedding breakfast following the ceremony. Who then should send out the invitations?
 The old time idea was that a woman should never send out her own we'd ding invitations even though she had been married before and really pos seSSed no one who stood to her in the place of a parent or guardian. But good usage now permits a woman to issue her own wedding invitations when there Is no one who would convent ently do this for her To be sure, a but the privilege is not restricted to women who have been married before However, when this is done the bride does not have the invitations worded thus: Miss Jane Smith requests the honor of your presence at her mar riage to Mr. John Brown, but instead she uses this wording: The honor of your presence is requested at the marriage of Miss Jane Smith to Mir. John Brown on the afternoon, etc" In the event that the bride has both or either parents. their names would most alphabetically be used either in the Invitations or announcement of marriage. If a bride Is motherless. then~the invitations or announcements are sent out in the name of the father. However, if a motherless bride is to be married at the home of an aunt then the Invitations are sent out in the name of the aunt and her husband. It would be perfectly correct for father, if he had no convenient home of his own, to have his daughter mar ried from sisters home, when the invitations would run:
