Many Opportunities
For Success
Some people seem to have
an idea that there are not as!
great opportunities for success!
today as there were a fewj
years ago.
The Journal cannot agree
with those who hold to this
idea. We sincerely believe that
there are just as great oppor
tunities today as there ever
were in the world’s history.
This is the day of the self
made man and the talented
woman. The wonderful devel
opment of our country has cre
ated greater demands fortrain
ed leaders, for skilled workers,
and for specialists in all lines
of business, civic, social and
religious work, and in fact in
all lines of human endeavor.
Some of our country’s great
est statesmen,business and pro
fessional men, teachers,preach
ers and farmers, were poor
boys only a few years ago, and
had far less opportunities to
rise than the poorest boys of
today.
Any young man or young
woman who really desires to
succeed in life can easily pre
pare themselves for success.
Success awaits those who
earn it. As a general rule, we
rise no higher than we aim.
Whether we live on the farm
or in the city; whatever may
be our occupation, the world
demands useful service,and the
person who is willing to pay
the price in hard work is the
one who attains success. Rut
whatever we do must be well
done. Our services must be of
the kind that can be depended
upon, and unless they are we
will find ourselves displaced
by ot hers who are more reliable
and better qualified for the
work we attempt.
There are opportunities all
around us. and the chief re
quisite for attaining success is
honest, persistent and pains
taking effort. As a rule, our
success is measured by our ef
forts.
A movement to move the
State University to some cen
tral portion of the state is un
der headway and public senti
ment is drifting to it. The Uni
versity should be in reach of
all,which is not the case atFay
etteville. It should be located
at Little Rock.—Stephens
News.

Senator Davenport of Sear
cy who is president of the sen
ate, is said to be grooming him
self to run for congress. But
we doubt if Gov.Brough’s coat
tail is strong enough in the
Second congressional district
for the gentleman to ride in
upon.
One good thing about the
war scare is that it will likely
cause a reduction in the cot
ton acreage and an increase in
the acreage of food crops. It is
the part of wisdom to be pre
pared to feed ourselves.
The Newport Citizen reports
that John Keel of Jackson
county is thinking seriously of
making the race for congress (
next year. That is by long odds
the biggest joke of the season
so far.—Sharp County Record.
Man gives nothing so will
ingly as advice, and often gives
nothing while he’s doing it.

THE HIGH COST OF
EGGS ACCOUNTED FOR
The scarcity of eggs has been
xplained. A newspaper man
found a fellow who had met a
man who had just returned
from a trip to the north, where
he had discovered all about it.
It isn’t the middleman or the
speculator who is to blame. It
is the farmer’s wife! The trav
eler told the fellow who told
the newspaper man that last
season farmers’ wives spent so
much* time riding round in
their flivvers that they did not
raise chicks. Result: No chicks,
no pullets, no eggs this winter.
This man said also that not on
ly had his wife and his wife’s
sister and her two maiden
aunts quit raising chickens,but
they knew several other folks
in the neighborhood who had.

Sickly Children
A child with worms is pale,
cross and unhealthy. Its appe
tite is variable. It starts in the
sleep, and frequently grinds the
teeth when sleeping. A certain
remedy for worms is
White’s Cream
Vermifuge
It destroys the worms and
strengthens the internal organs
that ha%'e been weakened by
these pests. Pale, sickly chil
dren pick up quickly and soon
become healthy, active and
cheerful under its excellent
•orrtctfng hafinence. Price lie.

GIVING NOTES
TO PAY DEBTS
Both houses of the general
assembly have passed the
measure, which was urged by
Gov. Rrough, authorizing the
state to borrow $750,000 to
pay its indebtedness and get
on a cash basis again. This
amount is to be repaid in year
ly payments and two offers of;
the money have been made at
four per cent interest, one from
the national headquarters of
the Woodmen of the World
and another from bankers ot
Little Rock and other Arkan
sas cities. This measure does
not call for an increase in tax
ation, but stick a pin in this
prediction, it will come to that
before these notes are paid.
The taxpayers of Arkansas are
going to pay Arkansas’ debts
through a raise in taxation
sooner or later.—Sharp Coun
ty Record.

Monday morning about 11
o’clock two bandits walked
into the bank at El Paso, White

after forcing him into the vault
proceeded to help themselves
to the funds of the bank.
One of the men is described
as low, heavy set, dark com

.and about 40 years old. The
other was a tall, light complex
ioned, clean shaven man,
younger than his partner, and
neither was disguised.
After the men had secured
