TOWNER STERLING RlLL

In aspamphlet being prepared
by the Forward Education Move
ment with reference to the Tow
ner-Sterling bill now pending in
Congress, E. 3. Tucker, acting
director, says:
How will this bill, if enacted,
effect Arkansas and her For
ward Education Movement? The
friends of public education in
Arkansas believe that it will
greatly aid us in our upward
march. Just now it would be diff
ficult for Arkansas to qualify
under its Federal aid provisions,
but the minimum requirements
set by it are the very ones that
Arkansas has set for herself and
which she hopes to attain very
soon. Having attained these, the
proffered aid, would tremendous
ly increase our school facilities.
The problems attacked in the bill
are the very problems that are
staring us in the face-Amerl-
canization of our citizens, Grad
cation of illiteracy among adults
close attention to physical train
ing, the training Of teachers and
the enlargement and equallza-
ton of educational opportunni--
ties among our people.
mo wonder then that the
State Department Of Education
endorses the bill, and every i'm
portant organization interested
in educational progress has pass
ed resolutions in its favor. The
Arkansas Educational AsSOcia-
ton has repeatedly endorsed the
bill. The great mass of the friend
of public education in Arkansas
and throughout the Union ale
emphatically and militantly for
it. The consistent opponents of
nublic education are vOcifprOuS
against it.
Friends of public education
should let their congressman
and senators know where they
stand on this measure and should
carefully watch it's progress thru
congress. If its enemies possibly
can, they will emasculate it I'M
less they can defeat it entirely.

this class. This class is growing
in numbers and interest. There
are other young men in and

To the readers of the Advance

10 the readers of the Advance
| have been reading the arti-
Giles in the Advance in regard to
consolidating our rural school
with the JudsOnia school.
In way that may be all right
but owing to the Indebtedness Of
most of our rural schools and
also Of the Judsonia High School
can't figure out where we hope
to better conditions. Talk about
pike roads. | take the position
that the proposed pike would be
cheap compared with this pro-
posed school. But just ay we
consolidate our schools, how are
we going To get the children to
and from school ovOer the roads
we now have.
Is is far more serious a matter
to think of than the road cues
ton. Now, | am in favor OF con
solidating in one way and that
is to retain our rural schools up
to the Fourth Grade and then as
a rule the children will be large
enough to take care of themSelv-
es. That and no other way am |
in favor of Consolidation. Some
may try to make belize it would
be cheaper and better on the
people to consolidate our rural
schools than to retain them as
they are but before | get thru
| will endeavor to prove my the
DRY by facts and figures. Below
I will give you the figures as |
see the proposition but before |
do that | want you to understand
| am not fighting anything that
would be enterprising or for the
up-building of the country. | am
far from it but | don't just like
to sit still and let few dictate
for us and as long as live | eX-
pect to stand up for what is Just
and right.
| will admit that we need bet
ter schools and better road laws
but | claim we can have them
without so much graft; but when
we do away with our little school
houses we are then opening up
a way for graft and also a way
to deprive lots of our children of
an education. | am serving my
second term as school director
and | know from daily obseIVa-
ton that it would be next to i'm
possible for lots of people to
school their children under the
proposed system as it is nearly
is under the present system.
To begin with we would have
$1,000 bonded indebtedness to
start with and then $500 more
building expense. With an aver
age attendance of 800 students
it would require the service of
10 teachers at a salary of $1,000
per month or $4,000 term.
Now if we have SCI children
to furnish transportation for it
would take at least twenty
trucks at a cost of $3.50 each
which would amount to $4,000
more. Now for the twenty cars

MILTON KNEW TIRES
WOULD WIN

Foreign speedsters were greatly sur
prised and chagrinned as result OF
the victory snatched by Tommy Milton,
American racing ace, who established
the astonishing new track record oil
HOS miles per hour in his Oldfield shod
car on the Los Angeles Speedway and
they re still talking about the marvel
ous performance of the American track
wizard, vowing they will be on hand
at indianapolis May 30, this year, to
win, if possible, Milton's honors in the
500mile classic.
The Los Angeles event, originally
scheduled for February % had to be
postponed because of rains. On Febrn-
ary 26 the racers were in the thick OF
the contest, with Milton leading at 81
Flaps, when rain again interfcred, and
the race was stopped because OF fear
that the slippery track might cause
serious if not fatal accident.
March was set for the new date,
and Milton, choosing to stand by his
original Oldfield tire equipment, set the
pace again. Many knowing ones'
frankly expressed thei: doubt of Tommy
making a favorable showing, and this
was especial true of the foreign en-
trants, who felt sure Of their ability to
put Milton into the class of "has
beens'
But Milton said he knew his castings
would stand under the most gruelling
test, and this American champion, win.
ner of the classic at Indianapolis last
year, went into the race with smile OF
confidence that his Oldfield tires would
come through with him winner.
Barney Oldfield, known as "Master
Driver Of the World,' was very much
in evidence at Los Angeles, and this
dean of American speedsters, now at
the head Of his own tire company, said
that his many years Of experience on
the speedways had shown him it was
the tires that meant the difference be-
tween winning and losing in these great
auto racing events.
"Although the tires Tommy won on
were from the regular Oldfield stock,'
said Barney, "they have their advan-
tages in many ways, chief of which is
the vast fund Of knowledge I may
modestly say have gained in all these
years of racing. 1 know what tire
needs to give long mileage, fast mileage
and trouble-free mileage"
The Los Angeles race, according to
Oldfield, aroused no end of determina-
tion on the part of other contestants
to enter the great Indianapolis race this
year in the hope of wrestling from Tom
my Milton the honors he has won in
some of the most grueling contests the
speedways of the world have ever
known.

SAVING SERVICE IS
! BUSINESS BUILDER

A great deal of emphasis has been
placed on the theory that if you can
build better product than anyone else,
the world will make a pathway to your
door. The theory is valuable in en-
couraging the production of good prod
ucts, but it is too slow in its working
out to satisfy the present day business
man.
In this day, the live business man
builds better product, then tells the
world about it by advertising, then he
builds good roadway up to his door
for the convenience of his customers,
and, in many cases, goes as far as to
deliver his product to the homes of his
patrons.
The Western Auto Supply company,
which has grown to its present immense
proportions with As stores in all the
principal cities of the western half of
the United States, and which is now
doing a volume of business amounting
to more than $500, 900 per month, is the
outgrowth Of one mans idea of real
service and saving. Mr.. Geo. Pepper
dine, now president Of the company,
conceived the plan of building a store
where motor car owners could be sure
of getting the best supplies and acces-
sories of every Kind for their cars, at
the lowest possible prices. He dreamed
of store where his assistants would
be able to render real ervice to Gus
toners in helping them get the best out
of their motoring, by demonstrating
every helpful accessory or piece of
equipment. He wanted to build q store
where customers could order by mail
and be sure of getting just what they
wanted quickly, and also be assured Of
the same careful attention as if they
were visiting the store in person.
With this idea, Mr.. Pepperdine went
to work and developed the plan of serv
ice and saving that has attracted the
world to the doors of As stores, and now
more are in prospect. He advertised in
papers. magazines, on sign boards, and
through catalogues, to tell the world
| about his plan. He placed his stores in
| convenient locations in the best bust
| ness cities Of the west, where people
could easily reach the stores. He has
developed q plan for handling mail
orders that reduces mistakes to a min
imum, and mail order customers find
| that they can have their requests
promptly and carefully attended to.
This is the story, in few words, of
one of the biggest business houses in
| the west, and it seem to have deal of
interest to nearly every one who has
ever heard of Western Auto stores. Peo.
| pl seem to like to know when man
succeeds because of honest efforts.

AT Z p. m. we all gathered at the
SCoutmaster's office. He supplied us
with the meat, potatoes and onions,
etc. We hiked to Public School and
stopped where we boys of the big hike
did u cooking before. AS soon as
w reached there we went out to
gather wood as no shingles, box wood
and old lumber was allowed TO be
used.
Each scout built his own fire and
did his own cooking or roasting.
Some busy on their stews and 9TH
ers busy on their meat roasting tests.
Everything went on fine and soon we
were ready to eat.
Mr.. Jos. Fassoth, u scoutmaster,
tasted every scouts meat and stews
and said they were all well done.
