We Have Been Very Dis
criminating in the Selection
of Pianos to Sell to YOU
Ever since 1853 we have been
buying and selling pianos. The
grandparents and great-grand
parents of many present-day
Little Rock citizens bought mu
sical instruments from us back
in the “fifties and sixties.”
The experience we have gained
proves to us that these pianos
are unsurpassed—Kimball Hol
lenberg, Hallet & Davis, Apol
lo, Hinze and Whitney—and so
we offer them to you with the
knowledge that they cannot
fail to please.

TOTAL COST OF WAR
MAY NEVER BE KNOWN
_
Figures Show What Nations
Have Spent But Destruc
tive Cost is Unknown
_
The ink was not dry on the
armistice signed last Noveni
her until the statistical^ began
to figure up the war cost to
that date. Of course the tot
al arrived at was only an esti
mate and it will be a long time
before the exact cost is ever
known—if it can ever be
known.
But at that time it was esti
mated that the grand total in
money was $249,000,000,000.
At that time Great Britain
had spent the greatest sum—
$52,000,000,000. England had
financed the war almost alone
for a year or such a matter
and the strain was beginning
to tell.
Then came the German to
tals, $45,000,000,000. The
Huns had been the financial as
well as the military backbone
of the Central Powers.
The United States came next
with $40,000,000,000. We
came in late but we came
strong. France followed with
$32,000,000,000. Then Russia
with $30,000,000, always the
biggest in number of men in
|the field but weakest in stami
na. Her loans showed it. Au
stria-Hungary came next with
$25,000,000,000 and then Italy
with $12,000,000,000, a splen
did showing for that Mediter
ranean nation.
Somewhere in his domains
the Turk managed to raise $5,
000,000,000. Little Serbia and
Rumania gave $3,000,000,000
each and Bulgaria contributed
$2,000,000,000. Belgium’s to
tals were not included in the
estimate but they were as lar
ge as a crushed and ruined na
tion could find in its scattered
resources.
Possibly some of this will be
regained for the Allies through
German restitution. Neverthe
less the Allies cannot count on
that in their work of restora
tion. France recently conclud
ed a splendidly subscribed war
loan. Britain comtemplates
other loans for the works of
peace and the United States
is calling now for the Fifth
of the series of Liberty Loans.

BIG STRAWBERRY CROP

section of Arkansas that it is

tory of that industry in the

year. The picking will begin
about the middle of April and
thousands of berry pickers will
be used in moving the antici
pated crop.
