Political Chaos

Who doubts for a moment that
there is at this time more or less
political chaos in this country?
The political chaos of this coun-
try is approaching the political con-
fusion in other parts Of the world.
We haven't political parties to-
day as they were understood at one
time in the history of this country.
We have what might be called po-
litical organizations carrying the
names of ancient political parties. !.
In other words, the political par
ties have name to live but they
are dead.
The reason they are in this con-
dition is because they have ADAM
doned great fundamental principles
of government, and doctrines of the
Constitution. They abandoned
them hoping that they might sur
render principles for policies.
You can't build a great party on
I policy; It must be builded on a
y-inciple.
Il the parties of this country are
to be revived and invigorated you
must inject into their backbone the

 AGAINST TOBACCO

Little Rock, Feb 3-Gov McRae is hot after tobacco users, and today pre- dicted that tobacco, like the whiskey traffic, will see it's end before many afternoon designating March r as No Tobacco Day, and requested citizens of the state to assume the leadership in movement to enroll public schools and colleges in the campaign of edu- cation against the use of tobacco in all forms.
 The proclama ton follows:
 Relieving that the widespread use of tobacco is slow and insidious de stroyer of the fitness of the race, that it's general use by men and women from their youth up, generation after gencrati ton. is contributing to unmiS- takable and certain degencracy, to say nothing of the loatheSomenpSs of the habit, and it's great expenses 10 man kind, I feel that organized society should find methods to check it's use any avoid the dire effects
 II believe that the people of this enlightened time will yield to the per SuaSi0ns of kindly warning and log ical caution with regard to the use of tobacco in all it's forms l feel sure that it is q subject for educators and moraliSts rather than for courts and statutes If the tobacco evil iS to be combattcd successfully the people must be led into the light of reason; they must be induced to renOunce tobacco voluntarily rather than driven from it through penalties of the law
 NOW. therefore. Thomas (. Me Rae. governor of Arkansas. do hereby designate and proclaim the seven teenth day of March. 1922. as No To hacco Day i'll the state, and call upon the members of the No Tobacco AsSo citation of the state to take the lcat in signalizing this day, to the end that our public schools and colleges may l be induced to take notice of the ne ceSsity for q campaign of education and preeaution against the practice and use of tobacco"

 The cream separator has brought a great improvement in handling cream on many Arkansas farms. II has changed the dairyman'S problem from the careof butter on the farm to the care of cream on the form. The pro duction of high grade fram cream re- quires less drugery and is more sim pie than butter making, and what is more important the sale of cream usually brings greater profit than the sale of butter The radical change in handling and marketing milk is bound to result in diSappointments to some persons but in nearly all cases of dis appointment with separators which have come to the attention of this De- partment they were caused by lack of understanding of the new require ments for the handling of cream.
