IMPROVEMENTS OF
THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Reports from over the state
to the Department of Education
show marked advancement in
improvements made for the
benefit of the schools. Especial
ly is this the case in the matter
of new school buildings and e
quipment. The idea that what
was good enough for me isgood
enough for my children has no
place in the minds of proressive
citizens. Unfortunately the mon
ey problem is still confronting
most of the school districts, but
patrons are alive to the impor
tance of keeping alive to the
advancement being made in af
fairs educational as well as in
other lines.
In some localities, it is true
that the non-progressive is still
in evidence, but his power is so
| limited that in few instances
can he exert sufficientinfluence
j to win many sympathizers with
his let-well-enough-alone poli
cy. The merchant realizes that
it he more attractive he makes
his store, the more likely is his
list if customers to grow; the
| mechanic is finding out that im
proved machinery lessens labor
jand increases profits;the farm
er is awaking to the importance
; of introducing better methods
ot tilling the soil, cultivating
the crops, harvesting the yield,
caring for the produce,and plac
ing them on the market; homes
are becoming more and more
places of comfort and conveni
ence; then why should any one
seek to deprive the children of
their right to those advantages
which will give them the same
comforts, conveniences and ad
vantages that are to be found in
the modern day homes?
Pleasant surroundings and
favorable conditions are essen
tial to securing the best results
from one’s eforts, and this is
markedly true as regards the
child. Of all places the school
should be for the child a place
inspiring to best efforts and fur
nishing conditions that make
them possible. Attention to sani
tation, physical comforts, at
tractive surroundings, and suit
able equipment go far toward
making the work of any school
successful.—A r k a nsa s Teach er.

STOCK ON SMALL FARMS
The place to begin in the cam
paign for more live stock in Ar
kansas is with the small farm.
The man who can go out and
buy two or three cars of cattle
can always take care of himself.
What we need ismorelivestock
on the small farms. The man
with one cow should get one or
two more; the man with one
sow should have two or three
this winter; the man with two
mules should trade them for
two mares and raise colts. In
other wordseveryfarmershould
use his brains to find ways of
growing more feed from a giv
en acreage and at the same
time try to see how much live
stock he can feed on his farm.
Increase the sources of cash in
come and find ways of keeping
up the supply of cotton without
increasing the acreage, and
ways of doubling the feed crops
and the “food” crops and doub
ling the live stock on the small
farm.

This grateful citizen testi

Such testimony is complete

It forms conclusive proof of

nearly always had a dull ache
in the small of my back. I was
subject to dizzy spells, my
sight blurred and I had a
tired, languid feeling,especial
ly in the morning. Doan’s
Kidney Pills soon fixed me up
all right.” (Statement given
May 30, 1908.) Over five
years later Mrs. Alexander
said: "I still use Doan’s Kid
ney Pills occasionally, always
getting the best of results.”
Price 50 cents at all dealtrs.

The seniors conducted chapel
Wednesday morning. A short
but interesting program was
rendered.
r The Seniors note books are
going in very fast, only one

The following paper on
Thanksgiping was read by Ruby
Drennen at the chapel service
conducted by the senior class
Wednesday morning:
“Thanksgiving”
“Thanksgiving Day is an A
jmerican custom started by the
Pilgrims who landed on the
j continent and faced hardships
which few can realize who are
raised in the wealth and luxury
of the land today. The season
had been a hard one.Many had
died and the prospect of star
vation during the cold winter,
with its ice and snow, loomed
large. So, when the harvest
yields enough to keep them un
til another season would pro
duce the necessities of life, they
met that last Thursday in Nov
ember in the year 1621 and
gave thanks to their God who
had remembered them.
“Thankfulness is usually in
inverse ratio to the value of the
thing for which we give thanks
This is no disparagement of the
things we are grateful for; but
j humanity does not think of
thanks until it has felt terrors
! of distress.
America has more to be
thankful for in the year 1915,
than any nation of the world.
The year has been one of great
ity. This year we will not be
thankful so much for the bless
ings we have received, for the
things that have been given us;
happiness, peace and prosper
and being relieved of our bur
dens as we will strength to bear
them.
“We are thankful for char
acter, not charity, and for iron
wills that have not been broken
by the inevitable.

Croup
'“Granny” CLambflain
“I don't think there is a more anxious
time for parents than when their children
have croup. Without they are prepared
with Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy they
must wait for the doctor and listen to the
choking, metallic cough and watch their
little one gasping for breath.
You know the great danger of croup
is the formation of a false membrane m the larynx, and until this
is expelled relief cannot be obtained, and the spasmodic chok 0
continues. Give Chamberlain's Cough Remedy in frequent doses
It will loosen this membrane and cause the child to expel it y
vomiting. _
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy
is an absolutely safe and certain remedy for croup, and if given
as soon as the child becomes hoarse, or even after the croupy
cough appears, it will prevent the a>.tacK.

HELP THE BOYS AND GIRLS
One of the greatest move
ments in America today is the
work for the boys and girls
through th 3 various club activi
ties. There are Corn Clubs, Pig
Clubs, Peanut Clubs, Cotton
Clubs, Tomato Clubs, Poultry
Clubs, Bread Clufs,Sewing Clubs
and many others. Fathers and
mothers, are you encouraging
these clubs? Or are you hold
ing back and keeping yourboys
out of these formsofeducation?
There ought to be fifteen thou
sanl boys and girls in these
clubs in Akransas next year.
Give every boy a pig and every
girl a pen of chickens or at least
give every girl two settings of
good eggs next March. Give the
girl settings of eggs from a pure
bred flock and let her have all
the money made the first year,
and then form a partnership
and let the girl have charge of
the whole flock. Give the boy
an acre for corn and cotton or
peanuts and give the girl some
ground for tomatoes.
