MiN WANTED
A* a result of the war there is an
enormous demand in all lines of busi
nees, both public and private, fu
trained men and women. Leading
men of the nation are unanimous i.
the opinion that it is a patriotic dut\
for men who are not eligible for army
service to pursue a business or techni
«al training and fit themselves for se:
vice elsewhere.
Young men who are not in the si
leotive draft, are wanted in business
positions provided they have the right
training. Little Rock and Arkansas
business men are begging now for
trained help; they need men—great
numbers of them—and mtist have
them. It is a splendid opportunity for
those who will train themselves in
bookkeeping, shorthand, and other
branches of clerical work.
Mr. George A. McLean, President
of Draughon’s Business College of
Little Rock, Ark., advises that the
demand for office help has trebled in
volume during the last three or four
months, and that in August alone,
nearly 200 positions were offered the
students of his school A very large
majority could not be filled as there
was not a sufficient number of trained
students available. Mr McLean strong
ly urges a business training and says
that wonderful opportunities are now
open to the young men nnd women
of Arkansas.
Those who are looking for an op
portunity and believe in the "Do it
oow’’ spirit, should, by all means,
communicate with Mr. McLean and
earn his plan for assisting young peo

You can’t tell which way a

Don't think too much of your

may be right about them.
When a man shows a Chris

are coming his way.
Some men are born great and
others rod up their trousers and
wade right into greatness.
Don’t think because a word to
the wise is sufficient that people
will be eager to speak to you.

SENATOR'S SEARCH IN VAIN
Bankhead Seeks Barrel of Persimmon
Brandy Lost in Atlanta Fifty
Years Ago.
Has anybody seen anything of a keg
of chewing tobacco and a barrel of
persimmon brandy lost by United
States Senator Bankhead of Alabama?
He suspects Atlanta, but he Isn’t mak
ing any definite charges. He Just
knows they are gone, says the Atlanta
Constitution.
He has been looking for them a
mighty long time—in fact, ever since
Sherman started on his march to At
lanta and the sea, und he renewed the
search the other day, when he was in
the city, but to no avail.
It seems that Senator Bankhead,
then a young captain In the Confeder
ate army, had a negro slave who was
a wonderful forager, but who finally
got into his head that he was the cap
tain of the company. So Captain Bank
head got a furlough and brought his
negro to Atlanta to barter or sell him.
Finding nobody who would buy, he
finally traded the negro to a man
whose son is now a prominent Atlanta
millionaire, the consideration being a
barrel of persimmon brandy and a keg
of chewing tobacco.
He stored the barrel and the keg,
and when he came back to get them
they were gone.
To Prevent Deafness,
With n view to making a telephone
receiver transmit sounds more clearly
under varying conditions, a. special
earcap has been Invented, which takes
the place of the regular earcap on the
receiver. In shape this device resem
bles the part which it displaces, says
Popular Mechanics Magazine, except
that there are several vents or indent
ed channels which radiate from the
center of the cap to the rim.
These allow the passage of air in
and out of the ear, even though the
receiver is pressed against it. The pur
pose of this is to prevent indistinct or
conflicting sound waves striking the
ear drum. It is the claim of the in
ventor that this form of an earcap re
lieves sensitive parts of the ear from
strain in using a telephone and pre
vents deafness and nervous disorders.
Historical Research.
The pupils in one of the schools ol
Indianapolis are from time to time Id
their history lesson providing their
teacher with answers to her questions
on the subjects under consideration
that are worthy of the distinctive
name of “howlers,” a term recently
adapted from Great Britain. Here are
some that she has recently added to
her collection:
Question—Who aided Columbus on
his voyages?
Answer—Patrick Henry of Virginia.
Question—What part did George
Washington play in the Revolutionary
war?
Answer—He played in the band.
Question—What %vere the relations
of Capt. John Smith to the Indians?
Answer—He was related to the In
dians because he married Pocuhontus.
WENT DOWN ALL RIGHT
Howard—Have you been down skat
ing yet?
Evelyn—Oh! yes. I was down sev
eral times while skating.
To Save the Towels.
I kept discovering little holes in my
towels and had no Idea how they got
there till I saw my husband wiping his
razor blade on them, says a corre
spondent of the New York Sun. He
never cut through, hut he was apt to
cut a thread In spite of his care, and
in the next washing the hole appeared.
I took some old towels, hemmed sev
eral small pieces about the size of a
handkerchief, sewed a loop to the cor
ners, and keeji one of them all the
time hanging on a hook by the shaving
mirror. Since he begun to use these
T have found no more holes in the
towels.
Baked Bananas.
Take strips from bananas and brush
the tops with melted butter, add one
half cupful of water in tin- pan in
which they are to be baked. Hake for
85 minutes in u moderate oven.
