OPPOR TUMTY-WHA T
WILL WE DO WITH IT?
The Journal has frequently
urged the organization of a Com
mercial Club by the business men
and other live citizens of Newark.
Many have spoken encouraging
ly of the matter and all admit that
it would be a good thing and that
such an organization could do a
good work in helping to boost
Newark, but as yet no one has
t aken hold and started the move
ment.
Such an organization, composed
of the leading citizens of the com
munity can accomplish many
things for the betterment of New
ark.
Labor conquers all things, and
when you get the leading spirits
of a community organized and
working in unity, good results
will surely follow. They could
make Newark not only a bigger
town, commercially and numeri
cally, but a better and more pleas
ant town to live in.
Get the farmers into the organi
zation too. We are interested in
the farmers, their work and their
prosperity. When the farmers
prosper, the town prospers, and
vice versa. The farmer should
help the town, and the town
should help the farmer. We had
a fine demonstration last summer
of what the town can do in help
ing the farmer in the way of road
building. This can be repeated
and enlarged upon with mutual
advantage until every road lead
ing into NewarK is made a first
class highway.
Such an organization can be of
inestimable value to the town in
securing new enterprises and in

during people to locate here.
There is a good field here for a
cotton seed oil mill. We need a
canning factory, an electric light
plant and other industries, all of
which could be made to pay well,
and would bring more people to
Newark—and this means more
business for the merchants, the
doctors, druggists, lawyers, gro
cers, the farmers, and others, be
cause people must be fed, clothed,
housed and otherwise have their
wants and needs administered to.
There is no telling what an or
ganized and united effort can ac
complish for a community. For
tunately, Newark has everything
right at our doors necessary for
the making of a good live town
The thing we need to do is to get
together and work together for
our own benefit and the benefit of
Newark. We have everything to
gain and nothing to lose by such
a course. Opportunity is standing
at our door.
What are we going to do with
it?
Lots of land in Arkansas is bet
ter for truck farming than for
staple crops. Truck farming re
quires more work but it pays bet
ter. Under present conditions,
truck farming and stock raising
pay bigger dividends than any
other line of farm work. The
farmers who raise truck crops,
fruit, hay and stock, and enough
feed to keep their stock, are the
ones who are keeping out of debt
and doing well.
The prophecy that Roosevelt
will be the presidential nominee
of the progressives and the re
publicans in 1916 is still being re
peated, and apparently is finding
a few more believers. If that
should happen, it would be pain
ful to witness the efforts of a num
ber of esteemed republican spell
binders to revise the campaign
speechas they made in 1912.—The
Commoner.
The movement for nation-wide
prohibition was given another
boost last week when the Metho
dist General Conference in session
at Oklahoma City passed a resolu
tion endorsing the movement and
i pledging the support of its mem
' bers for national prohibition.
Ten to fifteen carloads of straw
berries are being shipped from
Judsonia every day. They are
worth about $800 per car, and
more than 300 cars of berries will
be shipped from there during the
season. This means an enormous
sum of money for the farmers of
that community. The farmers
around Newark are neglecting a
golden opportunity in not taking
up the culture of berries.
“There is too much science in
I our so-called educational system
today and too little God Almighty,”
is the w'ay Vice President Mar
shall expressed himself in a public
speech a few days ago. That may
sound just a little bit old-fashion
ed, but in viev\r of the tendency
to eliminate God Almighty from
everything, Mr. Marshall has
sounded a note of warning that it
might be well to heed.

The Panama canal is considered
the most stupendous and wonder
ful task ever undertaken by man.
Vet it is estimated that in the past
five years the American people
have spent as much for gems
and jewelery as the Panama Canal
has cost. This furnishes an apt
illustration of w’hat a little
economy could do if properly di
rected. _
The Southern Baptist Conven
tion in session last week at Nash
ville, Tenn., passed resolutions
favoring national prohibition and
authorized the employment of an
agent to do educational wmrk in
the interest of the movement.
The hoodoo in thirteen has been
1 given another black eye. At a
social gathering in Newark on the
13th day of the month, at which
thirteen persons were present, the
; honoree of the occasion was given
thirteen useful presents.

TRESTLE^ GIVES WAY
A trestle on the White River ;
road near Calico Rock gave way
Saturday as the Red Ball freight
was crossing it, and nine cars
went through the trestle. The
cause of the accident was a faulty
trestle. None of the train crew
;.was injured. All trains have been
delayed, as it was necessary to
transfer all passenger traffic
around the obstruction. Through
freight traffic was completely sus
pended until today, as it was
necessary to completely rebuild
the trestle before trains could pass.

Abraaiona of the Fleab.
If the wound is cleansed and
the liniment applied promntly,
the healing process begins lit
once and the wound neals from
the inside outwardly, thus per
forming a perfect cure that
leaves no scar. If the wound
heal3 on the outside too quick
ly, pus forms under the sur
face and breaks out into a run
ning sore that is hard to curei
and inevitably leaves a bad
scar.
Owners of blooded stock pre
fer this liniment t., all others
for that reason, and they use it
not onlv on fine animals, but
on human flesh, as it does its
work quickly and thoroughly.
Price 23c, f!Oe and $1.00.
