FRIDAY MAY “20, 1010
Somebody lias correctly said
that success is not, only the good
that you do, but also the evil that
you hinder.
The highest, purest love for
children is not found in the parent
who uses liquor, tobacco, profane
and vulgar language, and thus sets
examples that debase, demoralize
and destroy, as they are taken up
and followed.
An exchange gives the follow
ing as the result of interviewing
thirty business men and thirty
loafers: The thirty business men
had all been flogged freely by their
parents when they were boys,
while out of the thirty loafers
twenty-seven Imd been “mamma's
darlings” and the other three had
been raised by their grandmothers.
For the benefit of those who ab
hor printers’ ink as a prime fac
tor to the advancement of their in
terest, we should state that Sam
son, the strong party, was among
the first men to advertise. He took
two solid columns to demonstrate
his strength, and several thousand
people “tumbled” to the scheme,
lie brought down the house.
The insistence on knowing what
is in the sausage or canned mince
pie has not yet subsided. A lot of
people who have had spasms over
the packinghouse revelations might
not feel so touchy about the sub
ject if the limelight could shed a
few rays into their own kitchens.
But then one’s own slack ways are
not near so eerv-urable as those the I
other fellow is guilty of.
Senator W. K. Oldham of Lon
oke county has declared that he
will introduce a resolution in the
next legislature to ex pell Senator
A. W. Covington from the sen
ate. Covington was president of
the senate in 11*05 when so many
of the alleged boodle transactions
took place, and was indicted sev
eral times for bribery. He was re
cently re-elected to the see ite from
Johnson county. There were sev
eral boodle indictments pending
against him at the time, but hr
has since succeeded in getting the
indictments nol pressed.
A man’s worth to the commun
ity in which he lives is to be jud
ged more by the worth of his
character than by the worth of his
property. ____________
It is said that lion Clay Sloati i
of Lawrence county will be a can
didate to succeed Hon. W. A.Old- I
field in congress two years from
now. Hon. II. L Fonder of Wal
nut Ridge is also mentioned as a
probable candidate.
A young man with a practical
knowledge in his head, skill in his
hands and health in his body is his
own letter of references. Mix him
up with sixty millions of others,
and you will tind him again, as he
will have a habit of being on top.
He does not go whining over the
land, blaming fortune and saying
he has no chance but goes out and
does something, and goes out and
does it again, and better. .Men
that can do things, either with
head or hands, are the men that
are wanted and there is always a
demand for them.
In the excitment over the elec
tion of school directors tomorrow,
let’s not lo'O sight of the fact that
the first and most important thing
in having a good school is plenty
of revenue. If we would have a
good school we must first have
plenty of money. It matters not
who we elect as directors, unless
we have money to meet the neces
sary expenses we cannot have a
good school. Kvery citizen should
feel an interest in the school. ;
This is one matter at lea*t upon
which the people of Newark should
be able to agree, and there should
i)o but little opposition to voting a
liberal school tax.

The Journal is the recipient of a
box of strawberries from G. F.
Cullom of Judsonia which are,
without exception, the finest straw
berries we ever saw. Many of
them measured more than four
inches in circumference and were
beautiful in color and form. They
are. a new variety recently origi
nated at Judsonia, and all those
who saw them unhesitatingly pro
nounced them the finest berries
they ever saw.
The Newark Public School bas
ket ball team went to Batesville
Saturday to play the Hatesville
Public School. The nime resulted
in a tie, the score being: eight to
eight. The Newark team is com
posed of the following: Misses
Van and Virl Pascoe, Addie Mc
Henry, Ona Morgan, M illie Dren
nen, Nobe Ilolderby and Fannie
McDoniel. They were accompanied
by Prof. O. T. Richardson, M. C.
Magne-s, Clarence Acton and
Clyde Edwards.
The Black River Stock Im
provement Association was organ
ized at Cord Saturday, with the
following officers: J. C. Stewart,
president; Dr. V. D. McAdams,
secretary; A. T. Best, treasurer.
The following were chosen as man
ager-o \V. N. Osborne, W. A.
Parr and Geo. Walden. They have
succeeded in raising fdOO and have
not solicited from a good many
people who will be interested in
the work of the association to the
extent of a liberal donation.
It has been suggested by sever
al prominent citizens that there
should be a general observance of
Memorial Day on May JO, and
that appropriate services lie held
at Blue Spring cemetery. I'he day
was originally observed by the. G.
A. R. in honor of those who lost
their lives in the civil war, but the
day is generally observed in many
places. It is a beautiful custom,
and The Journal mentions the mat
ter in order that it may be more
fully brought before those who
may feel inclined to observe the
day.
