Items of Interest To Our Read
ers as Published by The
Woodruff County Dem

Red Cross Chapter
While some have question
ed: “What is the Red Cross
doing?” still a noble working
squad of men and women have
been very busy securing a
suitable work room, at last the
consent of Mayor Ed Trice
as obtained to use the City
Hall.
We might make mention
right here that giving over the
hail to the ladies is a great
sacrifice on the part of May
or Trice.
The room will be open for
work Tuesday morning and
different groups of women
will work under an instructor
f om dav to day throughout
the period of the war.
Mrs. Lula Hill will have
chaige or the women’s work.
The Presbyterian ladies will
hold a Spring Sale of readv
made garments at the store of
James &Echols, Mar. 7th at
2:00 p. m. You are invited.
Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Arthurs
will leave Sunday for Bristow,
Okla., where they will make
their home. Cotton Plant re
grets to lose this splendid cou
p.le, but our loss is Bristow’s
gain. The Democrat will vis
it their new home.
We learn Nathan Bros. Will
discontinue business in our
city in a few months, they both
having been called to the col
ors. When our young men
leave their home for their
country’s service they have a
right to expect the folks at
home to play the game as
bravely as they are playing it.
The sacrifice is not any more
easy for them than their loss
is easy to us.
The Main street of our city
is being plowed up and the rot
ten dirt removed to be replac
ed by rock and asphalt, mak
ing the connection link be
tween Woodruff county and
Prairie county complete. Eng. |
Mashburn is directing the
v. ork with all haste and hopes
to have the 8 mile stretch of
road completed m a few
months. This road is a part
of the great Bankhead High
v. ay that will run from ocean
to ocean. Cotton Plant is
destined to be the biggest
town in Woodruff county and
the best town in Eastern Ark
ansas. In speaking of the
road we learn the Anderson
property has been purchased
and the road will come right
the hats, making but a slight
curve at the “Do Funny” store.
This is a great thing and will
add to the beauty and conven
ience of the road.

Medicine vs. Food
Do not buy something which
you already have. You have
food which you feed your
horses, cattle and sheep, but
when you want medicine, buy
only medicine. That is what
you get in B. A. Thomas’ Stock
Remedy. We sell it and guar
antee it to be medicine. We
tell you that it will tone up
the entire system of your stock
an aid digestion, thereby caus
ing them to get all the food
value out of the grain that
you feed them. Red Cross
