THE NICKEL POLICY
Statistics show that Arkan
sas spent 5c per capita in its
school building program, while
many other states spent $5 per
capita. It is about time that
Arkansas got out fo the nickel
class in this respect, for with
all its magnificent resources
and its progress in other mat
ters it has been woefully defi
cient in what it has done for
its public schools.
With its building program
practically suspended, many
schools threatened with closing
and with the citizens adopting
voluntary taxes and other sub
terfuges in an effort to keep
their doors open, the people
are being forced to realize
that something must be done.
With our people spending $21
per capita annually for luxuries
and only $2.25 per capita an
nually for education, it is clear
that it would work no hardship
upon them to reverse these
figures.

CHARACTER AS ||
AN ASSET ||
ll&llllllllliyiltt
Character wins many times
when cash is beyond reach.
Business loans always hinge on
the character of the man who
needs them. If his character
is doubtful the loan must be
abundantly secured by collat
eral, and in many cases where
the character is bad loans are
flatly refused regardless of se
curity.
No man in business knows
what may turn up to put him
in finincial distress, partieu
lary in such times as the pres
ent, when credit is more or less
uncertain, and sudden unex
pected needs swamp all cash
reserves and demand larger
amounts in addition. Then
character counts heavily and
decisively. The reputation of
a business is one thing; the
character of the men who con
duct it is quite another. Banks
give reputation all due consid
eration ; but in times of stress
and desperate need it is chara
cter that decides the future of
many a man in business. There
fore build character as you go
along. It is a pillar of
strength.

WHAT IS 100 PER v
CENT AMERICANISM
So many articles have ap
peared and so many utteran
ces have been heard about
this subject, that perhaps a
little more will not be out of
place.
Apparently all writers and
speakers refer particularly to
loyality to American principles
of government as related to
war, when they talk or write
about Americanism, and that
is the' reason for this article.
One hundred percent Ameri
canism is more than a mere
spoken loyality to our princi
ples of government. It is a
far-reaching thing that needs
explanation and analysis to be
understood and considered
worth while.
A one hundred per cent
American is true to the princi
ples of “government of the
people, by the people, for the
people.”
A one hundred per cent
American takes an active inter
est in the government ‘of the
people” by keeping himself
well informed about the ways
and means provided for this
government’s operation.
A one hundred per cent
American takes an active part
in the government “by the
people” by voting as his infor
mation and conscience dictate,
so as to provide the best possi
ble officials to carry on the
business of the government.
A one hundred per cent
American abides by the laws
that are enacted for this gov
ernment by its representatives
in legislature and congress.
When he finds that incorrect
or inefective laws have been en
acted, he nevertheless obeys
these laws while he uses the
proper means for their elimin
ation or replacement by other
suitable laws.
A one hundred per cent
American opposes those laws
which he feels are wrong, but
in doing so he does not repudi
ate established authority or in
stitutions illegally. In other
words he fghts fair. He voices
his opposition in the manner
provded by law for good citi
zens, and not as a bolshevik.
NEW STORY SERIES
I
The Journal to Print Series
By Author of Pollyanna’
A new series which the Jour
nal has arranged for, and
which will prove enjoyable to
all who enjoy good, sparkling
stories, is a number of short
stories written by Eleanor II.
Sorter, author of “Pollyanna”.
and a baker’s dozen of other
books, the total sales which
have mounted up into the mil
lions.
No femine writer of stories
has a wider appeal, and from
the more than 200 short stories
which she has contributed to
magazines it is to be sure that
the nature of her stories has
the popular approval.
Mrs. Porter is a direct de
scendent of Gov. William Brad
ford of the Mayflower and
represents the highest type of
wholesome American woman
hood which is a composite of
the many tine qualities reflect
ed in her literary work.
