In speaking Of persons faults,
Pray don't forget your own;
Remember those With homes of glass

If we have nothing else to do
Than talk Of those who SIM

SCHOOLS NtndnsWeSndVc. l i've III the little town of Elma, twelve hundred people here; yet we have a school building of brick, that could not be built today for over a hundred thousand dollars; we have nearly twenty teachers in our faculty. and about six hundred students in the Elma schools. Where do these children come from, in a little town of twelve hundred people. you will
 ask? From the farms as well as from the town; goode warm. in- closed auto buses every morning leave Elma in every direction, going for miles and miles to gather the little children and the high school children as well; we have consolidated schools here and the country schools in the state of Washington. with all of it's draw backs, is now just about a thing of the past. There are some left, but soon will close their doors, and the farmers sons and the daughters will no longer be denied in the great state of Washington the same chance that the city child has enjoyed all along to get an education to fit it for life. We have q bare foot school boy law on our books. It was fathered by a great Governor long since dead, Gov ernor John R. Rogers. A mon- ument now stands in the Capitol grounds to his memory for the fight he made years ago for what we call the barefoot school boy law? What has this to do with Arkansas want you to wake up back there, ,io like the good pioneers..of this state did and what those who came after them are doing to-day. It costs money, yes. but it is money well invested. Our tax rate in this county is this year over eight per cent. But we have paved roads to ride over. and every advantage that modern civiliza- tlon entities us to enjoy.
 Arkansas is just now at- tracing world wide attention. Do not be alseep at the post, and let this golden opportunity you have to make your state. during this present generation, the lead ing one in the South. You have untold resources. and all you need is to develop them.

That comes from intelligent marketing and grading methods.
 Let me give you one more in- stance of the forward step this state has taken. Near Tacoma is the small town of Puyallup and another of Sumner; just little towns in the Puyallup Valley. The value of the small fruits tberries) crop last year brought in seven and one half million dollars. In my county the chicken and egg business is just being started. And yet las year the eggs from this county sold for over a million do liars alone. and this just a small promise of what the future has in store for the poultry men of Grays Harbor County. Why we are just now engaged in cutting down the primeval forest to make room for the settler. And yet see what marvellous chance you

Here we. are three thousand and more miles from NewI York, yet carload after carload is right now being shipped from Washington to New York. You need enterprise, you want to forget that you should not. work alone for your own communities. you want to go out into every nook and corner of the state and encourage the people to form egg associa- tions. berry associations and get these men to organize. Forget that cotton is the only crop and oil the only way to get rich quick. Go to the basic principles of every day life, the develop ment of the soil; the be,terment of your schools sand the improve ment of your roads.
 You have one great paper in your state. refer to the Ark ansas Gazette; it lines up with the best papers in the country. It seems to realize that there are other places in Arkansas than Little Rock. where no doubt its greatest circulation lies, but it may have a state wide circula- tion. 1 do not know. But it is a great paper and it .is doing good work in trying to develop your state.
 Your coal resources alone are enough to make your state great. And vet see how little has been done to develop them. Take your water power. you are about the last in the development of this great natural resource. In Washington we have long ago spent millions and millions to develop the water powers of the mountain streams and the result is beneficial to all in the way of cheap electric power. I could extend this letter but trust the few suggestions 1 have made will meet with your approval and above all get out among the people of the state. don't con- fine the efforts of your association to a few big cities but work for the entire state. You have a wonderful state. and the present generation might as well reap the benefit nature has given you as to let your untold wealth lay dormant for generations yet un- born. 1 remain with best wishes for the su ccess of the Arkansas Development Association. and remain.

Compares Arkansas
 And Washington

Elma, Wash. Dec. z, 1921. The Arkansas Advancement As- sociation,
 Little Rock. Arkansas.
 Gentlemen:
 1 received your letter with the circular setting out the re- sources, in part and opportunities to be found in your great state. l have never had the pleasure of visiting Arkansas, but have talk ed to great many people who have been and have a number of friends in that state. Among them w. D. Wingfield, of Emer- son. who is a leading merchant and capitalist of that city, and who has done a great deal to in- terest outside capital to promote the welfare of his community. AL so w. w. Adams, the abstracter at Ozark. who is another very en- terprising citizen, anxious to see his native state take the rank and place among the other states of the Union to which she is en- titled. Some day 1 expect to find time to leave my business and visit you. My faith has been shown in the wonderful opportunities possessed, by alread- | y investing there, and others in Elma have done the same. The fame of the state of Washington isworld wide. yet it isnot so very many years ago since 1t was a wilderness.
 may say that Ezra Meeker, ninety two years old, living in Seattle, cast vote at the first territorial election ever held in what is now the state, so you see our state, you might say has a living representative from among it's very earliest pioneers. The Dennys. the Yeslers and the l Colemans, settled on the shores of Elliott Bay where the mag niicent and wonderful city of Seattle now stands, in the fifties. They were the pioneers of this State. What has made Seattle today world city, with the tallest building in the world out side of New York City? It's great metropolitan citizenship and it's unsurpassed prosperity ? first visited this city in 1900, a young man seeking location from Wisconsin. The depot in Seattle then was a one story, | little red old building, not worthy the name of depot for any town. | Yet to-day what is known as the Seattle Spirit. advertising, commercial clubs and all pulling together has made Seattle what lit is. The purpose of the city of Seattle, after it once got star ted was this: Whatever helps any part of the state of Washington
 will help Seattle; with that broad spirit the people there began to help other communities. IL knew that an irrigating ditch in the Yakima Valley making worthless sage brush land produce hundred of dollars per acre annually when watered
 would ultimately help its own city. That good roads. no matter where built in the state, was a
 benefit to all, and with an enter,
 prise that believe never known
 before was shown until we found delegations of business mer
 from Seattle visiting every nook and corner of the state; theil booster clubs went everywhere.
 Speakers were sent out, anC
 what has been the result. A state that we are all proud tc
