FILE CLAIMS FOR
ALLEGED SHORTAGE
Mrs. Erwin and Administrator
Seek to Recover $31,000 From
Estate of Paxton Thomas
E. G. Hinkle, administrator
of the estate of the late \V. J.
Erwin, has filed a claim against
the estate of the late Paxton
Thomas for the recovery of
$ 11,880. Mrs. Ida L. Erwin
for the benefit of herself and
Mrs. V. G. Richardson, also
has filed claims against the
Thomas estate for the recov
ery of $20,000. The claims
were filed with the county
clerk and the hearings will
be had in probate court soon.
Mrs. Fannie Thomas, as ad
ministratrix of the estate of
Mr. Thomas, disallowed the
amount involved which, it is
alleged, is due the Erwin es
tate.
The amounts asked for by
Mrs Erwin and Mr. Hinkle rep
resent the amount which Mr.
Thomas is alleged to have mis
appropriated while he as agent
was handling the money be
longing to the Erwin estate,
and during part of the time in
which he was cashier of the
Citizens Bank and 'Crust Com
pany.
These claims are based upon
the auditing of the books rela
tive to the condition of affairs
concerning the Erwin estate
contained in the report of Ex
pert Accoutant Hennigan, who
completed the work at the Cit
izens Bank and Trust Company
Saturday and returned to his
home at Little Rock.—Bates

NewarkShould Warm
Up To The Farmers
| M. Town Man, how many
farmers around here are you
| acquainted with, and how
| many are you reallyon friendly
i terms with ?
Don't you know that our
| tarmers are one of the great
est and most valuable human
assests of this community, of
this town?
Don't you know that with
out them we would have no
town to speak of, that we would
be justa dot on the map or not
on it at all?
And don't you think it is to
our interest—to YOUR interest
-to know the farmer better
to make friends with him. to
give him a genuinely hearty
welcome every time hecomesto
town ?
Shouldn’t we make him feel
that this is HIS town as well as
ours?
There is not a higher type
or more energetic class of farm
ers in existence than those of
our own community.
THE LIGHT THAT
NEVER FADES
Evey residence in this town
should be lighted by. electri
city, and every business house
work shop and professional of
fice shuld be similarly equip
ped.
The day of the tallow candle
j has passed, and the lantern and
jthe coal oil lamp should be on
their way.
Electricity today is no more
expensive than the lamp or
candle, while its effectiveness
is increased a thousand fold.
The way of themodern world
is lighted with electric rays,
and the community that refus
es to become modernized soon
.slumbers m the cobwebs of
oblivion.
Let's light up and stay lit.
