Just Arrived |
A FORTUNATE purchase
has enabled me to secure from
the leading creator of millin
ery fashions, at very substantial
price concessions, a splendid
lot of strikingly pretty hats.
\ Preferring small profits and
a large number of sales, I am
placing these hats on special
sale for the low price of
$2.00 to $3.00

Rifle Club
i - -
I have authority from the War
Department and from the State
of Arkansas to organize a rifle
: club of ten or more members.
The object of this organization
shall be the encouragement of
military rifle and pistol shoot
ing. •
Any white citizen over the age
of sixteen years may become a
member, and the officers shall be
a president, vice-president, sec
! retary treasurer and executive
officer.
The constitution and by-laws
of the National Rifle Association
of America will govern the body,
with the approval of the Secre
tary of War.
The annual dues and initiation
fee is placed by the local body.
Krag rifles and ammuniton are
issued free by the government
to the organization in proportion
of one-rifle for every five mem
bers and 120 rounds of ammuni
tion per year, with the privilege
of purchase from the govern
ment, at cost, ordnance supplies.
All who will join if you will
speak to me will begin the move
ment. It is hardly necessary to
tell you of the benefits this will
be to our community, especially
linked together with a Home
Guard organization.
Yours for the Home,
C. B. Cook.
