STATE OF ARKANSAS
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT
PROCLAMATION
To All to Whom These Presents Shall Come—Greetings:
WHEREAS, It has become distressingly evident that
inroads of the dread disease, tuberculosis, upon the Jives of
the people of this country and State have reached serious
proportions; and
WHEREAS, It is a lamentable demonstrated fact that
3,000 men, women and children in Arkansas alone died last
year from this terrible plague, while 25,000 more were af
flicted, causing an economic loss to our commonwealth of
approximately $14,000,000; and
WHEREAS, This distressing condition has become
. more vitally dangerous with each succeeding year, accom
panied by an ever-increasing mortality list, due in part to
lack of necessary funds with which to combat the disease,
especially among those citizens of our State which ignorance
or poverty, or both, have rendered easy victims of the dis
ease ; and
WHEREAS, It is now imperative that definite organ
ized and effective steps be taken to arrest this disastrous
toll upon the people of our State, so that they may be ad
vised against the ravages of tnis fatal sickness; and
WHEREAS, The Arkansas Public Health Association,
in conjunction with the National Tuberculosis Association,
is about to undertake the* raising of $150,000 within the
j State as its quota of the national fund of six and one-half
million dollars, to be raised through the sale of Christmas
Seals to fight tuberculosis; and because approximately i0
per cent of this $150,000 is to be expended within the bor
ders of Arkansas:
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Charles H. Brough, Governor
of the State of Arkansas, by virtue of the authority vested
in me under the ConsFtution and by-laws of said State, do
hereby proclaim to the citizens of the commonwealth that
during the period beginning Wednesday morning, Novem
ber 12. and ending on Wednesday night, December 24, that
they bestow attention, lend effort and strength and buy
liberally to the fullest extent of their means, in response to
this appeal to be made by the Arkansas Public Health As
sociation through its loyal and devoted workers.
AND I further request that this proclamation be read
aloud from every pulpit, both white and colored, in the com
monwealth on Sunday, November 9, and on the folloy/ing
Wednesday in every school, so that the children also, to the
extent of their interest and effort, may join in this vdally
important work.
[Signed] CHARLES II. BROUGH,
i • Governor of Arkansas.

FRICTION THE ENEMY

Therefore pivots are finely polished. Jewels are
of ruby or sapphires, the oil carefully refined; all
to reduce fricton. On these bearings the balance
revolves 432,000 times daily, astounding isn’t it?
Yet cleaned and oiled yearly a watch will run for
generations, and if neglected, it, must with such un
ceasing toil, wear itself to ruin in accumulating dirt,
and corroding oil. Let me ex amine it, an honest
opinion from me will cost you nothing.
W. H. DOWDELL, Watchmaker.
Don’t Disregard A Cold
A neglected cold may de
velop into most serious sick
ness. The influenza and
pneumonia that swept the
country a year ago were pre
ceded by an epidemic of colds.
Foley’s Honey and Tar will
check a cold if taken in time.
It loosens phlem and mucous,
clears air passages, eases
hoarseness, stops tickling
throat. For sale by Red Cross
