the quivering lip.
And the glistening tears down
the pale cheek that slip?
Were you brother of his when

Did you offer to help him or

Don’t you know it’s the part of
a brother of man,
To find what the grief is and

Did you stop when he asked
you to give him a lift,
Or were you so busy you left
him to shift?
Oh, I know what you meant—
what you say may be true—
But the test of your manhood
is, What did you do?
Did you reach out a hand? Did
you find him the road,
Or did you just let him go by
with his load?

Independence County
Man Writes From West
Editor Journal.—I would
i like to have space in yourpaper
for a few lines to my old friends
!
in Independence county.
1 left Arkansas only a short
time ago and have found from
experi nee that Arkansas is
mighty hard to beat. I did not
expect to get into New York
City out here, but did expect
to find a country something
like what I had been used to.
However 1 was sadly disap
pointed.
But what you see on your
way out here in a measure re
pays you for the disappoint
ment after you get there.
The man I work for is from
Arkansas and is a nice man to
work for. We are located in a
narrow valley, walled in on
either side with high moun
tains. This is a stock country, j
as that is all it is fit for. This
is the place for a man who
likes stock and likes to be
alone.
They tell you that irrigating
is easy and that you don’t have
to work much, but 1 have been
kept pretty busy.
Getting wood is the hardest
job I have. We have to pull it
down with a team, and a fel
low has to look out for his
team, and himself or get killed.
He also has to keep a sharp
lookout for snakes as there
are many of them here.
When it gets cloudy you can’t
see the hills although they are
very close by. We have had
some bad storms here; as bad
as I ever saw. But rain doesn’t
[do any good toward cooling the
| weather and the days are ex
tremely warm, as the wind'
I don't blow in the valleys.
A lew are cutting hay the
second time, and grain is about
ready to cut.
The people here should be
good riders, as that is the only
I way you can get anywh ere.
Very oftenyou go from ten to
thirty miles and not see any!
I body. But you see lots of wild
animals of all kinds.
Out here they want a fel
low to do many things an Ark
ansas boy is not in the habit of
doing. But 1 have gotten along
very easy, as 1 have never been
scared of my job. If any of the
Arkansas boys want to come
out here, they should learn
housework, for this goes hard
with a fellow who has not h en
accustomed to doing that kind
of work. I have seen many
girls, but these Mormons beat
them all. 1 never knew what a
Mormon was before l came
here. I would rather be a black
man than a Mormon. A Gentile
can’t stay in one of their towns
long.
The people here do not like
to admit that the hay grown

Sues Firm For Selling
Liquor to Her Husband
Fort Smith, Sept. 6.—Mrs
Geo. A. Yoes of Wislow today
filed suit for $6,000 agaisnt
John Scaap & Son, a local
wholesale drug store, on the
grounds that the defendant
shipped intoxicating liquor to
her husband with the result
that her home was wrecked.
The plaintiff asserts she direct
ed the drug company in Novem
ber, 1913, not to send liquor to
her husband. Her orders were
not complied with, she charges.
In December of the same year,
the petition asserts, the com
pany shipped Yoes more liquor
and further charges he has
been drunk since that time.
here is not as good as Arkansas
hay, but they have to do it. 1
have to let them have it on
grain. But that is all.
Sunday is just like any other
day here. I have seen only one
minister since I have been here.
He got lost and stopped to stay
over night with the man I work
for.
The water here is very bad,
as it has so much gvp in it.
When it rains it takes the water
sometimes ten days to cl *ar up.
The ladies—but I will let
them off easy, as no man likes
them better than 1 do, not to
have one of his own. But out
here they have a stroke of
paralysis when a man comes in
sight.
There are a number of oth
er things 1 might write about
but will not mention them, and
will leave the reader to guess
at some of it.
