which was that Mr.. Seamster is the
best instructor in that kind of work
and with that age pupils that have

school. | feel that | ought to make
this correction in justice to myself
and to other efficient teachers whose
work l have noticed and also in JUS
tice to Mr.. Seamster himself.
That statement was little too
broad to mean much when we consider
the college teachers and University in
structors that l have seen. 1t would
seem that was just simply throwing
bouquets at Mr.. Seamster and would
embarrass him, and me also, as well
as many other good teachers.
The corrected statement means a
great deal when l say that he is the
best instructor in that class of work,
and with that age pupils, that l have
ever seen. l believe the people of
Monett ought to know more about the
work which is being done by him, and
visitors are always welcome. l can

ANOTHER CHANCE is

Whether He Makes Good Is Up to

Says Hays.

Los Angeles, Calf, Dec. 20.-Ros-
coe Arbuckle. motion picture come
dian, has job in the pictures and
he may work at it. Whether he comes
back to the place he once occupied is
now distinctly up to Arpuckle and to
the American people, is the gist of a
series Of statements given out here
today by Will Hays, chief of the
motion picture industry; Jesse l..
Lasky of the company that formerly
distributed the Arbuckle comedies;
Joseph Schenck, producer, who will
employ Arbuckle and the comedian
himself.
Mr.. Hays requested the producers
to withdraw the Arbuckle films and
to make no more of them last April.
He took that action after, Arbuckle
had been thrice tried on a charge of
manslaughter arising from the death
in San Francisco of Miss Virginia
Rappe, an actress. Since then, Ar
buckle has lived quietly, keeping out
of the public eye.

CAKE FIFTY YEARS OLD

! Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Caldwell and l.
A. Seely will always remember that
they assisted in celebrating a golden
weddlng-a rare occurrence. These
friends of Mr.. and Mrs. G. B. White
were present at the celebration and
! admired the beautiful presents.
Among these presents were a gold
handled knife and chain for Mr.. White
a gold fountain pen for Mrs. White;
$25 in gold; $25 in currency; IL large
pink and white chrysanthemums, sent
from Kansas, and chrysanthemums
sent by friends in this city.
What made this golden wedding
more interesting to relatives and
friends was the tenth wedding ami
versary of Mr.. and Mrs. Harve Budy,
of Dacoma, Okla, who came here to
celebrate two wedding anniversaries.
Mrs. Budy is niece and namesake of
Mrs. White and was married ten years
ago on November %. Mr.. and Mrs.
Budy were handsomely remembered
and received beautiful presents in alu-
minum ware. Mrs. Budy told the re-
porter she raised 1000 Rhode Island
Reds last year, and with some of the
proceeds purchased a 1926 white en-
ameled cook stove. She certainly
made good use of some of her money.
Besides those named in Wednes-
days paper who came here to cele-
brate and make merry with Mr.. and
Mrs. White, were Mr.. Harve Budy and
father, G. R. Budy, Miss Harriet Budy
of Dacoma, Okla; and Elmer Budy,
of Green Forest.
The Budys all returned home yes
terday. Mrs. Amy Carpenter, Mrs.
Whites sister, leaves today for heA
home at Long Beach, Cal, after three
weeks spent here.
Oh, we almost forgot. The linen
table cloth used on the table for the
turkey dinner in honor of the two
wedding anniversaries, was wedding
present to Mr.. and Mrs. White, fifty
years ago, and the guests sampled
three kinds of cake made at that time,
and which Mrs. White has kept all
these years.-Eureka Springs Flasn-
