REMARKABLE RECORD

So far as mails are concerned
it is almost impossible to realize
that the country is in the grip
of a great railroad strike. Hun
dreds of letters each day are
received in the Washington Her
aid office. These come from all
sections of the state. The Herald
mail probably is representative
of that which goes to the aver
age large business house. Yet a
careful examination of the post
marks on all these letters mailed
outside of Washington fails to
show any delay. The mail is just
as regular as it was before the
shopmen's strike was called.
This fact is of particular in
terest when coupled with the
admission of the Post Office De-
partment that abou 1000 mail
trains have been annulled since
the strike started.
The efficiency with which the
service has been maintained is
complimentary indeed to the
present administration of the
department. There has been lit
tie press agenting." Newspa-
lpers have not been flooded with
accounts of the marvellous skill
with which difficulties due tc
the strike have been overcome

LITTLE ROCK NEWS LETTER
(By Clio Harper)

Little Rock, Sept. 4.-Arkan-
sas is this year getting a real
taste of what automobile touring
can mean to a state. Every day
there are hundreds of motorists
from other states camping by
clear streams or speeding along
good Arkansas highways. These
visitors are for the most part
enthusiastic about Arkansas, but
there are still several gaps to
be closed in Translate high
ways before Arkansas can get
a favorable report from the Wis
iting motorist, after he has left
the borders Of the state.
In spite of the comprehensive
road building program of tive
years ago, there still remains q
county here and there that was
never stung by the improved
highway bug, and it is these
counties that afford the barrier
to the tourist. No matter what
these counties said about the
road builders at the time the
road district was unpopular, they
are now coming to the realiza-
ton that they are losing bust
ness by their penny-wise policy,
and most of them are building
permanent highways, and not
waiting for a special act Of the
legislature to create improve
ment districts.
The popular road right now
is the gravel road and in most
places a gravel is being used
that cements rapidly, but where
creek gravel can be secured near
by, tn clean round rock is being
used.
There are several counties in
Arkansas, on the main high
ways, that have done little or
no road building, and now they
are knee deep in dust. The auto
mobile passes over than is sub
iected to a greater strain than
if it journeyed over rough ston1
and the residents of these coun-
ties take many times daily a aust
bath. There is less than rs
miles of unimproved highway
between Memphis and Texar-
kama and Memphis and Fort
Smith, but this short distance
certainly takes the pleasure out
of the remainder, which is ex-
cellent highway.
Few people are aware thai an
Arkansan perfected the first au-
tomato telephone, the ancestor
or forerunner of the dialing tel
ephone recently put into opera
ton in Little Rock by the South
western Bell Telephone Com
pany. DR.. E. H. Harrison, for

JUDSONIA SCHOOL WILL
OPEN SEPTEMBER 1872

The Judsonia High School will
open September Is, 1922.
The delay of a week in Opening

principally because of the dry
hot weather.
The school Board announces
that charges will be made as fol
lows: For pupils outside of the
District; for primary grade$2.50
for the grammar grade $500;
and High School grade $500,

is about the same as is being
made by other schools in this To-
cality.
The board will receive sealed
bids for the Janitor service in
the school this term. Bids will
be opened September the 18th,
and the position awarded.
We are glad to announce the
opening of school for September
Is and invite all friends and pa
irons of the school to be present.
We shall expect genuine CO.
operation of the parents in en-
forcing the curfew law, as this
is one of the greatest factors
in making ideal conditions for
learning.
Every child of school age who
has not be vaccinated is request
ed to do SO before Monday, the

In addition to these there are
Is members who have had prev

not be novices in the law max

members Of the Senate, but two
will be found in the House, Miss
Erie Chambers of Pulaski Coun-

HEAVY TRAVEL TO WILDWOOD

Seashore travel by rail to Five Mile
Beach was given a tremendous boost
last Sunday, when nearly 5000 excur-
sionists were landed on these shores
by the West Jersey and Seashore and
by the Reading line. The former road
ran five sections, carrying a total of
1850 passengers; the latter, four sec
tions, bringing, collectively, $500. The
Reading contingent had been swelled
by the special group made up of mem
bers of the j.. ]. Felin Company's ath-
letic association, as we'll as a bunch
of American Legion boys, some of
whose associates played baseball h a
day with the wildwood team. The re-
sources of both steam roads entering
here will be sorely tried for the next
four or five days. A crush is looked
for next Sunday, Monday and Tues
day, and both roads will have all they
can do in bringing the hosts to these
popular shores.

This weeks bill is an exceptionally
good one, the acts being original and
of unusual merit. Brasius and Brown
provide good entertainment with their
bicycle riding and the monograph
feature of Storey and Clark is good.
Kelly, McDevitt and Quinn present a
comedy skit that gets a lot of laughs
and the singing of Burk and Durkin is
fine. Mccoy and Walton have a lot of
good songs and jokes and the aero
batic features of the Wilson Aubrey
trio are novel. The orchestra will be
under the direction of Bob" Reber
of Philadelphia, featuring Allie Brun-
