“GIVE-YOUR-BUSHEL”
Dr. C. W. Garrison of Lit
tle Rock, was here Thursday
and met with the school di
rectors of this section of the
county in the interest of the
“Give-a-Bushe'F movement.
Upon the resignation of Mr.
W. M. Keating of DeView,
Mayor G. G. McCrory of this
city was appointed chairman
for the Northern district of
Woodruff county. He has al
ready made plans for an ac
tive campaign in each school |
district and will put this end i
of the county over the top
within a short time.
Mr. McCrory states that in
stead of the people being
asked to donate each year for
five years, they are only asked
to make but one donation—a
bushel of their most abundant
crop, o r its equivalent i n
money.He also authorized us
to state that every dollar
raised in Arkansas wall be
used exclusively for Arkansas
soldiers and sailors who have
been disabled during the war.
Every man and woman can j
and should give to this cause I
which la one ui uie musi
worthy and commendable of
any of the war activities. A
list of all who give and the
amounts will be published in
The Home News. Do your
part and help these boys who
sacrificed all for you and yours
and don’t wait to be called ,
upon, but see your school di-j
rector as soon as possible.
The quota is equal to three
bushels for each voter in your
school district. If you have j
200 voters, your district’s quota !
is 600 bushels and everyone
is expected to donate the value
of one bushel, or more, and the
fellow who is able to give and
don’t is nothing but a slacker.

Last week four of our boys
had a move coming Wednes
day night.
Clyde Melton did a little
celebrating Monday night of

“On Earth, peace, good

Some one cut the wire be

Chappie,not having the “mar

Several persons around
here would like to know
what Mr. Will Dowdle does
with himself every Sunday.
He doesn’t hang around here
much.
Forrest Bullard says he
feels awfully lucky since the
box supper. He ought to.
During the excitement he
swallowed a chicken wish
bone, and after the supper was
over another guy soaked him
back of the neck with an old
horse-shoe because he bought
a certain box.Maybe after all
that, his luck will change.
Along about last Tuesday
night all the galls around
here wrapped hamless ham
sandwiches in tissue paper,
packed their boxes with them
and met at the little old
church to raise the benevo
lences. The boxes sold from
fifteen cents to fifty dollars,
depending upon the appetite
and money in evidence.

Mr. J. A. Cullum has sold
his barber shop and rented his
residence to Mr. D. B. Colwell.
He has purchased a shop from
Mr. G. W. Reneau in Augusta
and moved to that city this
week. Mr. Colwell will move
his shop across the street into
the south room of the Hargis
building which is being over
hauled with a new floor and
coat of paint. Mr. Perry Hol
land will occupy a part of the
same room with his tailor shop.
Mr. and Mrs. Cullum were
numbered among our best peo
ple and we regret to lose them
as citizens of our city. When
you get ready to come home,
John, you’ll find the latch
string on the outside.
