Entered at the post oltice at Newark,
Ark., as second class mail.
The best reward for work well
done is more work to do. This is
something that many people ought
to bear in mind, especially those
w ho are so lazy that they do not
work at all.
Every well kept lawn and gar
den, every house neat and attract
ive is an advertisment that pro
claims to all that the place is a
good one in which to live. The
down-at-lhe-heels looking town re
pels the prospective citizen.
That a man may be better off
than his neighbor does not neces
sarily mean that he is a better
man. It is character that deter
mines, not money, though a com
bination of money and character
makes an enviable combination.
Capt. L. D. Hickey, who was in
command of the Jonesboro Com
pany of the Arkansas State Guard
when members of his company
terrorized the town of Fordyce a
year or so ago, and who was sum
marily dismissed from the State
Guard by Gov, Donaghey, was
very loud in his demands for a
trial until it was announced a few
days ago by Gov. Futrell that the
trial must be held in Fordyce.
Then Hickey ducked and refuses
to attend the trial. Cap’n Hickey
is a great soldier, be gosh.
Those women suffragettes who
arc so loudly demanding that no
religious service be used in the
marriage ceremony are doing their
cause no good. What is needed is
a strengthening of the home life
and a fuller recognition of the sa
creedness of the marriage tie, and
the value of religion in securing
these ends is generally admitted.
If the idea takes root that wom
an suffrage is inimical to re
ligion, the cause of woman’s rights
will get a setback that it will take
a long time to recover from. It is
not necessarily antagonistic to re
ligion and the great majority of its
advocates are in full sympathy
with religion, but sometimes a few
noisy people can by their persis
tence do a lot of harm, even as
the comparitively few militant
suffragists in Enland are doing in
finite mischief to their cause of
woman suffrage in that country
by their insane acts.
It is announced that former
President Roosevelt will probably
come to Arkansas and stump the
state in the interest of Col. Geo.
j VV. Murphy’s candidacy for gov
ernor. Teddy has a great many
admirers in Arkansas but he will
hardly be able to swing the State
into the Bull Moose column.

FRATERNAL PROTECTION
Growth of Fraternal Insurance
Has Been Phenomenal
Fraternalism itself is as old as
the human family, but it remained
for the present generation to crown
this blessed institution with its j
grandest feature—the beneficiary 1
certificate which provides for the'
future of dependent ones. When ;
we consider that less than half a
century has passed away since the
birth of our first fraternal benefi- j
ciary society, we are lost in won-1
der at the marvelous accomplish
ments. Father Upchurch and the:
seven associates who organized J
the Ancient Order of United >
Workmen in October, 1868, have
as their successors today more than j
8,000,000 men and women who!
proudly proclaim their member- i
ship in these beneficent institu- j
tions and spread the glad tidings |
of fraternalism far and wide.
The first treasury fund of seven 1
dollars has grown and multiplied
until the enormous sum of $1,500,
(XX),(XX) has been paid to the bene
ficiaries of deceased members in j |
44 years, while the treasuries of |
the various societies hold $175,000,-!
000 to protect claimsof the future.
Last year alone these societies paid ;
out for death claims $88,308,029.;
Think of it if you will! With every;
rising sun which heralds the dawn I
of a new day $241,000 are paid i
out by the fraternal beneficiary:
societies of America to maintain
Americian homes, to feed the!
hungry, clothe the naked, and fit
for. lives of usefulness little ones
who but for this benign influence
would be left to float as derelicts
on life’s ocean. Imagine if you can
the vast number of homes that ■
have been maintained, children |
educated by the millions, and hund
reds of millions of dollars spread
broadcast over the land by these
societies in the past forty four
years. The fraternal society is
the savings bank of the multi- j
tude, and in it millions of men and
women have provided for the fu
ture of their loved ones when j
time for them shall be no more.
I believe in the fraternal benefi
ciary society of today. To me it
means that every man, and wom
an, may provide for the future
of their loved ones when death’s
summons has removed them from
this life; it means clothing and
food for the naked and hungry; it
means music and flowers for the
home; it means that the widow
may keep the little home intact
and rear the sons and daughters
amid home influences even though
the bread winner be taken away.
The fraternal beneficiary society
vacates the poorhouse and main
tains the home; it depopulates the
workhouse and fills the schoolroom;
it lessens the inmates of the jail
and multiplies the artisans in use
ful occupations. It is the friend of
morality, the co-partner of civic
and religious, progress, the tried
bulwark of the home. In it and
like influences I see the salvation
of the race.—Arkansas Woodman.
UNDERGROWTH
It ain't the trees that block the trail,
It ain’t the ash er pine;
Per, if you fall er if you fail,
It was some pesky vine
Thet tripped you up, thet threw you
down,
Thet caught you unawares:
The big things you kin walk aroun'—
Hut watch the way fer snares.
In life it ain't the biggest things
Thet make the biggest load;
It ain’t the burden big thet brings
Defeat upon the road.
Some fault you hardly knew you had
May hurt more than you think—
Some little habit that is bad
May put you on the blink.
