a DUTIES OF good y
y CITIZENSHIP y
y y
yyyyyyyyyy
The conditions confronting
the ctitizens of Arkansas at
this time call for the exercise
(.1 the highest degreee of citi
zenship. The schools are in
the midst of a crisis. Only by
vigorous action and patriotic
effort will it be possible to pro
vide relief for them.
The general school election
will be held Saturday, May 20,
at which time directors are to
be chosen and tax voted. It is
to be hoped that the districts
will be as liberal in their rate
as they have been for several
years past. The 12 mills is the
maxium that can be voted and
this is little enough, as has been
proven by the experience of
our schools during the past
year, especially, it is imper
ative also that the highest type
of citizenship be selected as di
rectors, for it is the school
board which must shape the
destiny of the school through
the teacher and the proper ad
ministration of the distrct’s fi
nances.
It is also highly important
that the people of the state
look carefully after the charac
ter of those who are to be nom
inated at the August primary
for Representatives and Sena
tors. Only those who are fav
orably disposed toward the
progressive program of our
schools should be elected to
the General Assembly.

NINE ARE HURT WHEN
SUNSHINE IS WRECKED
None Seriously Injured, How
ever, When Train Jumps
Track Near Bradford
The northbound Sunshine
Special, the finest and fastest
train on the Missouri Pacific,
was wrecked near Bradford
Sunday morning about 4
o'clock.
The engine, tender and six
coaches left the track. The
baggage car, mail car, the
diner, two day coaches and one
pullman turned over.
Conductor Lacey E. Carroll,
of Little Rock, was the most
painfully injured of any of the
nine reported hurt. His head
was cut in several places and
there was a severe abrasion on
his left leg.
J. R. Schiefers, a railway
mail clerk, sustained cuts a
bout the head and his left leg
was bruised.
Four passengers were slight
ly injured and three negroes
were hurt, but none of the in
jured were seriously hurt.
The accident according to
reports, was due to a sprung
switch point, caused by a
broken bolt in the switchpoint.
The train was running at a
speed of about 35 mlies an
hour when it left the tracks.
It bumped across the crossties
about the distance of five cars
before the coaches turned over.
AINT IT AWFUL?
“O, don’t the days seem lank
and long
When all goes right and noth
ing goes wrong,
And isn’t your life extremely
flat
With nothing whatever to
grumble at!”
“After the birth of my
baby I had a back-set,"
writes Mrs. Mattie Cross
white, of Qlade Spring,
Va. "I was very ill;
thought I was going to
die. 1 was so weak I
couldn't raise my head to
get a drink of water. I
took . . . medicine, yet i
didn’t get any better. I
was constipated and very
weak, getting worse and
worse. IsentforCardui."
TAKE
CARDUI
The Woman’s Tonic
!
I
“1 found after one bot
tle of Cardui I was im
proving,” adds Mrs.
Crosswhite. "Six bot
tles of Cardui and ... I
was cured, yes, I can say
they were a God-send to
me. I believe 1 would
have died, had it not been
for Cardui." Cardui has
been found beneficial in
many thousands of other
cases of womanly trou
bles. If you feel the need
of a good, strengthen
ing tonic, why not try
Cardui? It may be Just
what you need.

And is my shirt in strings?
And shall I go in debt for

Or do without such things.
Was it for this, since I’ve been

I cast my sovereign vote?
Amazing shoes, with socks un

And, oh, you tattered coat!
Well might a piece of tow sack
hide
My poor old naked skin!
The way them politicians lied,
It surely is a sin!
But drops of grief can never

The grocery bills I owe.
Negt time I’ll vote a different

Hang-taked if that ain’t so!

VALUE OF COWPEAS
One of The Most Valuable
Crops on the Farm
i -
I As yet no new crop has been
found that will entirely replace
cowpeas for feed and fertilizer
on southern farms. This le
gume holds its own with Sudan,
soybeans, feteria and other sim*
ilar crops all of which are use
ful in their respective places in
crop rotation but should not be
allowed to crowd out cowpeas.
Choose a variety of cowpeas
resistant to diseases. Root knot
and wilt are common diseases
which attack cotton, and when
cowpeas are planted the fol
lowing year may completely
ruin your crop, unless a resis
tant variety is selected
The Iron, Monetta, Brab
ham, and Victor varieties are
practically immune to cotton
root knot and can be safely
planted o nland infected with
this disease. Iron cowpeas is
a good yeilder and should al
ways be planted on land where
wilt is known to exist.
