George. Mrs. Lewis Keener and Mrs. Con Potter, died at a revival meeting at Rocky, saying when she left home that it would be the last meeting she ever attended. Some people then took blue back spelling books to Sum day school.
 Once Rev. James Watson, grand father of Willard Lowthers of Hat field, was holding a meeting at Rocky when 1t came an earthquake. Wesley Caudel was praying And when it came time to cal .aourners the benches wouldn't hold them all.
 s. G. Gray, who now lives in the Rocky settlement, is 73 years old and was born near Baker Springs in Polk county. Uncle Nat Allen, near Cove, was born in Polk county and is " years old. Mir. Gray says he knew the man who built the log cabin in the Mena park.
 The Rocky school grounds are a place of beauty. The school directors are c. c. Ulmer, president; s. T. Lawrence, secretary; J. D. Earnest, c. B. Connally and J. M. Strawn.

FITS SAVE THIS INDUSTRY.

Without any claim to knowing what the final outcome will be. yet The Star is very glad indeed that, thru the ef- forts of the Commercial Club the quarantine against Polk county cat tie. horses and mules has been held in allowance pending further effort to finally rid the county of fever ticks The further word that two of our big eest cattle men, one breeder of pure bred stock of highest quality, were preparing to move their herds into Oklahoma. is but an indication point ing to what is threatened. Doubtless ail others who have herds of any size w u'a do likewise.
 he sum of money asked of the Quorum court for the work this year was $1200. It is not improbable that the annual tax on the two punches of cattle first mentioned would fully equal this amount. What the county, as a whole, would lose in taxes alone thru the result of the threatened quarantine would doubtless be many times the appropriation refused by the Quorum court.
 One man. in discussing the matter, remarked that the cattlemen alone should be glad to make up the neces- sary money. Perhaps so, but it should
  be kept in mind that owners of cattle, like other folks, have been hard hit by the slump in prices of the past year. And, besides, while the cattle owners would suffer to a point near or quite to ruin, there is not busI- ness in Polk county that will not suf- fer thru the ruin of the cattle indus try. And it should not be forgotten that the dairy business, just getting nicely started thru the shipping of cream, is involved in this matter of tick eradication, for cream cannot be produced successfully by scrub cows nor by what would be left of our good cows after the Texas fever had clean  ed up on them.
 And, as stated in the letter of w. A Mcdonald, inspector for Arkansas ''there is very little infestation re- maining in the county at this time, and the cleanup is, therefore, com paratively easy. But if this immedi- ate work is not done in year from now we will have to begin all over again and dipping stock every 14 days is not matter to be considered lightly.
 The Star can see nothing but disas- ter to growing industry, and a set. back to all Polk county. in failure tc properly meet the impending crisis.

HOME DEMONSTRATION NOTES. By MRS. MARY AUSTIN, Home
 Demonstration.

Quite bit of work is being done to make the poultry of Polk county more comfortable during the winter. Some old houses are being repaired, others remodeled, and several new ones built. These new houses are built modern, according to plans obtained from the home demonstration agent.

No cAUsE FoR UNDUE ALARM

Calls from several towns in Polk county indicate that the early and alarming report of the smallpox epi- demic which reached Mena Monday have spread. and that these are caus- ing great alarm.
 The very latest reports. coming from Poteau and Le Fibre county, Ok lahoma, are to the effect that no new case has developed within eight days, and that the epidemic is well in hand. The Oklahoma authorities are using diligence in preventing any persons from leaving Le Fibre county that are not pronounced in good health, recently vaccinated and not exposed 10 the disease. This is being rein forced by orders issued to the Kansas City Southern against allowing any person without proper certificate C come aboard it's trains in the infected region, and Mena has officers aG the station to see that no person from Ls Flore county without credentials is al lowed to leave the trains. The roads into Mena from the north also ar. being guarded.
 All these Stepa are precautionary and are iuztifed hy the circumstances br them t is expected zn invasion d fhf dlnease may be prevented.
 Again. there is ne caazs for siaru.
