GIVE THEM A CHANCE.
Lieut. Col. Frank S. Evans, who
enlisted in the British army, rose to
rank of colonel in three years and was
decorated for bravery by England,
Prance and Belgium, warns the peo
ple that returning soldiers should not
be given hero worship, and that char
ity should not be offered them. And
this warrior states a truth that shou’.d
be sounded everywhere. Our brave
beys gave their service, for most
part gladiy, and they did a great
manly work for their country and for
humanity. When they return they
will desire to take the place of men
among us—manly men who look upon
charity as belittling them and the
work they have done. They will, for
ttie most part, readily find places
open to them, and it is from them that
oar leaders in political, social and in
duotral life will come.
All these manly fellows will ask us
in this returning from duty well done
im to see that they have a chance to
work and make their way as men!
among us. Charity, in the sense too
often used, would be little less than
an insult to them. They want none
of it—none of idleness or of hero
ami ahip.
We should be and are grateful to
mr soldier and sailor boys, but we
honor them and their manhood too
anrh to desire to weaken and destroy
the best in them by todying and cod
dling—-c thing that, indulged, would
do much harm.
MOW PRICES HAVE ADVANCED, j
Lota of folks talk about the ad-;
vaace of prices—how this or that ar-1
tide has hustled skyward—and this
■■dees interesting some authentic
flgnres on what folks are paying now
for more or less common commodities
oa compared with before the war flg
Here they are:
Wheat up .150 per cent
Corn up .150 per cent
Chranges up .200 per cent
Batter up .190 per cent
Eggs up . 180 per cent j

It will be noticed that the newspa

price of any except fire insurance.
LEGISLATURE MAY BE O. K.
Over in Kansas, with 30 of the 50
day legislative session gone, only 13
bills have been passed and only 9, and
these of minor importance, signed by
the governor. With 1,100 bills on the
calendar, the legislators are accused
of “playing horse." But right down
at the bottom of things, it is a grave
question if this legislature is not do
ing a better service to its state than
would be the cumbering of the state
statutes with a larger part of those
1,100 bills. The value of a legislative
body is sometimes, if not frequently,
in inverse ratio to number of laws
created.

Mena folks and farmers can but be
interested in one small advertisement
in The Star. This calls for bids for
the building of the potato curing
plant and warehouse—and means
more money for the growers and the
community.

FOUND SCHOOLS
FHAF GRADE WELL
Three Inspected by Supt. Wilbsnks
Were in Class B and Could Easily
Be Tut in Class A—Thirty
>11x1818 Offered.
County Superintendent Wilbanks
offers a better report than that of two
weeks ago. Of eleven schools visited,
three are Class B; four are Class C,
and four are .unclassified. All ex
cepting two of these school could be
Class A schools if the proper co-op
eration of teachers and patrons were
exercised.
Centerpoint is one of the two con
solidated districts in Polk county.
They have a neat building, but unfor
tunately the lighting is inefficient and
the paint on the interior is too dark
to relieve the situation. The school
property is new and not completed,
and it is certain that their score of
56 points will be raised this year. Vir
gil Earnest is teaching his first term
here.
Ozark scores 75 points and is there
fore, just barely a Class B school.
They lose most on community activi
ty, no organization being alive there
at this time. The school is doing ex
cellent work under the supervision of
L. M. Blan and Miss Vivian Mathis.
Grannis school is taught by S. S.
Lance and Miss Winnie Clinton. Miss
Clinton’s room is too crowded. This
school scores 71 and it could and
should be 95. The most needed im
provement at Grannis is a new school
building with necessary equipment.
Grannis will eventually get all forces
pulling together and develop the
school.
Womac Spur is in Class C, scoring
66 points. The paint on the inside
should be changed. Dark blue was
never appropriate for interior finish
ing and is ruinous to the eyes of the
children. Womac lost nine points on
community activity. Miss Gertrude
Robertson is their teacher.
Miss Bertha Clinton is in charge
of the Overturf school. The attend
ance is so small as to interfere with
interest, but Miss Clinton is doing
good work. These school children
need desks very much. The school
has very little equipment and for that
reason scores 42 points.
Wickes scores 78 ponts and Mr.
Hamby and Miss Ruth are already
working to make Wickes the first
Polk county school to score 90. The
superintendent has not found a more
enthusiastic group of students than
are at Wickes. They have a splend
id building but lack equipment and
community activity.
Bowman Spur school was closed
but the superintendent scored the
building and its contents. They make
40 out of a possible 50 and no doubt
would be well classified if R had been
possible to score the school while in
session.
Hatton is taught by Misses Lydia
Montgomery and Lille McFarland.
Their score is 67 points and they are
therefore a Class C school. The
building needs repair and some equip
ment should be purchased. The paint
on the interior is bad also. The di
rectors appear interested and the im
provements will very likely be made.
Marble Hill school is doing nicely
under the supervision of Miss Lillian
Callahan. They score only 58 point,
but lose most on equipment. The
building is in good condition, but
should be painted a light color on the
interior.
The Vandervoort school building is
not in good repair. The desks are in
bad shape also. A partition should
be built between the principal's
room and the intermediate room.
Their score is 70 points and will be
raised if the teachers continue the
interest they now exhibit in that
work. Mr. J. M. Tomlin is principal
and is assisted by A. T. Hamiter and
iU IBB UCUI^IB H Utility.
Acorn scores 83 points. The best
score of any school seen on this trip.
It is possible for this school to at
tain 100 points and the spirit evinced
by the people of Acorn last Friday
leads the superintendent to believe
that they will reach that score soon.
I. G. Harris is in charge, with Mrs.
Anna V. Harris and Miss Dessie
Jones assistants.
THIRTY MEDALS OFFERED.
Will Add Much to Interest in the
School Contests.
Superintendent Wilbanks states that
thirty medals have been ordered for
the Polk County School Contests, to
be held in Mena, March 21-22. The
business people of Mena subscribed
for twenty of these in one-half day,
and the remainder are already sub
scribed for by other Polk county citi
zens. Greater interest is being ex
hibited in these contests than ever be
fore and the talent displayed this year
promises to show marked improve
ment.
It will be well for the people of
Polk county not to overlook the devel
opment of our boys and girls—our
greatest asset—during these times of
great agricultural, mineral and busi
ness activity. Boost for these con
tests as you do for every other good
thing for Polk county.
TO MY MANY
FRIENDS AND PATRONS.
On account of my health and illness
in my family, I have thought best to
retire as president of the Farmers &
Merchants Bank, with which I have
been associated for so many years,
and in doing so I take this occasion
to thank you for your confidence and
friendship during this time. I also
take this opportunity to recommend
to you your new president, Mr. J. Wil
I lis Hopson, Jr., and commend to you
| your present officers and directors of
the Farmers & Merchants Bank, an
institution of whose business record
II feel justly proud.
Thanking you,
Sincerely your friend,

100,11 AMERICANS
WED FRENCH GIRLS
American Navy Nurse, Confessing
Some Jealousy, Yet Declares Rivals
Are Wonderful Wives and Moth
ers, and the Bravest Women.
From the New York Sun.
American soldiers may be homesick j
' —most of them are—but they’re not,
showing any lack of appreciation of |
French femininity for all that, if a
letter from an American Navy nurse,
who confesses she is just a wee bit
jealous, may be taken as authority.
This nurse, who writes to a relative
in New York, confirms the story car
ried on the cables that thousands of
marriages between Yankee boys and
French girls have already taken place
“somewhere in France,” and utters
the gloomy prediction that there will
be more of them before all the sol
diers come home.
I She admits she is jealous, does this
nurse, after her year and a half in
France, but she praises her rival as a
woman, as a housekeeper, home mak
er and mother and as a fighter.
Here is her letter in part:
I French W'omen Delightful.
“You seem rather incredulous about
so many of our American boys having
married French women. Why, I won
der? I don’t see any reason why they
should not. The French woman Is a
delightful creature. Even we Amer
ican and English nurses can see that,
much as we should like at times to
see otherwise, for we’re still human
and still feminine, and it goes rather
hard with us to see some of the finest
of our soldier lads marrying pretty
little Alines, Maries and Ninettes.
‘‘We think we could find better
mates for them, and some of us think
that a few could be found without go
ing outside of France. But still
they’re being captivated—we call it
‘captured’ when we talk among our
selves—by the French women. Louise
told me last night that she had it on
positive authority that about one hun
dred thousand American soldiers and
' sailors had married French women
over here!
■ Still, I don t blame the boys. These
girls are really almost irresistible,
and they understand the art of flirta
tion better when they are born than
the average American woman under
stands it after her fourth divorce.
They know how to dress too, to bring
out the very littlest as well as the
greatest of their charms. And they
know how to talk to our soldiers with
their eyes and hands and shoulders
better than we Americans can talk to
them in their own United States.
They speak a universal language—the
language of appeal—and they never
fail to make themselves understood.
She’s All French, Too.
“Besides all this more or less su
perficial charm, the French woman is
truly a woman. They are wonderful
, wives and mothers. I’ve been here
long enough to see that. They make
even better wives and mothers than
they make sweethearts. They’re won-,
(derful housekeepers, altho, except j
among the upper classes, they do run
to too much furniture In their parlors
' and too much garlic in their kitchen
to suit my plain tastes. But how they
do understand food conservation and
economy! Mr. Hoover could learn i
( quite a few lessons from them if he
' cares to study them.
J “And on top of all this femininity,
(they are fighters. They are the brav
est women, as a class, 1 believe I have
, known, and the most consistently pa
triotic.
I “So, why shouldn’t our boys love
1 them, and marry them ? Anyway,
whether they should or should not,
they’re doing it.”
