Money saving. The savings
bank is a school of thrift. Through
its privileges thousands have
learned to save what they formerly
wasted. The lesson of money
saving is best learned by opening a
bank account with The First
National Bank. Once started you
have an incentive to better habits,
and a reserve against adversity.

ease, especially in the summer.

Some'men have a great knack of
looking wise and talking foolish.
Ninety per cent of the so-ca'led
"house flies" that make life miser
able and uncertain during the
warm months of the year are
hatched in stable litter, says the
Chicago Journal. Keep stables
and manure boxes screened or dis
infected, and nine-tenths of the fly
trouble would be solved. The rest.'
could be abated by liberal use of
traps and swatters. Banish flies,
and you get rid of a large propor
tion of typhoid fever, and of a still
greater percentage of the intesti
nal diseases which kill so many
children every summer. It's a
pretty bad citizen who won't buy
screens to save the lives of babies
New farm Demonstrator.
O. J. Vines, who has held the po
sition of U. S. farm demonstrator

cently tendered his resignation,

from Starkyille. Miss. Mr. McKell
is a nice, pleasant gentleman, and
is seemingly well posted on all
lines pertaining to his business and
we feel sure that our people will be
pleased with him and his work, for
1 he comes with the highest recom
mendations. He will have offices
at the court house, where he can
be found every Saturday, and the
people are cordially invited to call
and see him there, where he will
explain, advise and help the farm
ers in every way he possibly can
to better farming conditions in this
county. Remember this advice
and assistance is free to you, and
j every one should take advantage of
I the chance given them by the gov
ernment to lea,rn the modern and
scientic methods of farming.—

The Great, Silent Men.
Carlyle In his analysis of the char
acter of Cromwell In “Heroes and He
ro Worship,” has something to say in
praise of silence. To him it was an
attribute of greatness. He says: "The
great, silent men! Looking round on
the noisy inanity of the world, words
with little meaning, actions with little
worth, one loves to reflect on the
great Empire of Silence. The noble
silent men, scattered here and there,
each in his own department; silently
thinking; silently working; whom no
morning newspaper makes mention of.
They are the salt, of the earth. A coun
try that has none or few of these is
m a bad way. Like a forest which
had no roots, which had turned all
into leaves and boughs—which must
soon wither and be no forest. Woe
for us if we had nothing but what
we can show or speak.”
Translated!
At a concert held in a certain town
a soldier of the Black Watch occupied
a seat in front of a private of an Irish
regiment and his sweetheart. The lat
ter was very much interested in the
Highlander’s uniform, and scanned the
regimental badge on his cap and collar
particularly. This badge is the figure
and cross of St. Andrew, with the
motto, “Nemo me impune lacessit’’ (No
one annoys me with impunity).
“Phwat does that wroitin’ mane,
Patsy?’’ asked the girl.
“Phwy,” replied Pat, “it's Latin, but
I’ve forgotten the English av it. But in
good ould Oirish it manes, 'Thread on
the tail av nife coat if ye dare!' "

CLEAN-UP DAYS
THE TOWN COUNCIL HAS DESIGNATED
MAY 19th, 20th and 21st
As CLEAN-UP DAYS and as I have been appointed City Health
Officer, it is my duty to see that their orders and the health ordinance
are obeyed and that the Town of Huttig is cleaned up on those dates and
and then kept in a clean, sanitary condition. I do not wish to cause the
enmity of a living person but I realize the necessity of this action prob
ably more than most people and I intend to do my full duty in the mat
ter. I am going to see that everybody cleans up and will have any who
do not arrested no matter who they may be.
It is strange that the citizens of Huttig cannot see the necessity
and importance of keeping their premises in a sanitary condition as the
health of the community should be our greatest concern. In order to
put someone in charge of the work on each street the following ladies
are named as Assistants on the streets designated:
Railroad Street Mrs. W. H. Greer and Mrs. T. B. Weaver.
A Street— Mrs. T. W. Pearson and Mrs. L. M. Gartall
B Street Mrs. W. H. Moore and Mrs. J. E. Goats.
G Street Mrs. J. A. Brignac and Mrs. R. J. Laysone.
D Street— Mrs. W. T. Terrell and Mrs. Joe Donnelly.
E Street—Mrs. A. E. Lucas.
Third Street Mrs. E. N. Collett and Mrs. 0. L. Kenley.
Fourth Street—Mrs. L. M. DeSpain and Mrs. J. B. Grockett.
Fifth Street—Mrs. L. G. Gibson and Mrs. E. T. Gobb.
Sixth Street—Mrs. T. E. Voss and Mrs. R. E. Ebbs.
If each assistant will do her part in this noble work it will be great
ly appreciated and will facilitate matters wonderfully. Get together
and see everybody on your street and request they clean up and make
suggestions where they will do the most good.
We can keep the town clean and if we do there will t e very little
sickness this summer. Every tin can thrown in the allies or streets is a
breeding place for mosquitoes. Every pile of manure or rubbish of any
kind is where flies breed. Th**se pests carry disease, so let us do away
with the carriers and prevent disease. *
As I said before I do nAt want to cause any trouble but you must
clean up or suffer the consequences. Yours for a sanitary town,
L. F. MAGEE, Health Officer.
