HAS SERVED HIS CITY WELL.
1n the resignation of Judge J. S.
Kelly as Park Commissioner Mena
Ibuom the services of a citizen who,
by hls Initiative, his work and exam
flu, baa doubtless done more to cre
ate a city beautiful than any other
man of our city And, beyond any
fatthte. Judge Kelly is entitled to the
•owr of the title, “Fathdr of Janssen
•ML** 4 V y I
ft is history that It was Judge Kelly
who was responsible for the Initia
tion of the movement to change a rag
ged, unkempt woodlot Into what is
conceded to be among the sweetest,
frettlest spots in the country. It was
thru hls efforts, seconded by other
citizens, that Father Gallagher
was chosen as the first Park Com
missioner, and that many hundreds
of dollars were raised and spent In
laying out walks, caring for the won
d«rful spring, the lakes, etc. And
with the enthusiasm of the splendid
■tart behind him, it has been Judge
Kelly who has. by unselfish service'
and persistent effort, carried the work
onward year by year.
And not one cent has he had as a
reward—not one thing but the satls
factlon that comes from creating and
Maintaining something that Is valu
able because it Ib beautiful.
No matter what happens In the fu
tore whether Janssen park ts furth
er beautified or Is allowed to deterior
ate, no fair-minded man or woman hut
will give sincere thanks to the man
who has done so much for his city, so
nraclt for beauty and beauty’s devel-,
opment as has Judge Kelly. And, who
fa the person who can give, even In the j
Measure of dollars and cents, the val
ue of that work and its results to

SAFE AND UNSAFE METHODS.
From the Arkansas Gazette.
Here are two important news Items
found sandwiched between "person
als” and other small stuff in the;
weekly letter of the Hatfield corre
spondent of the Mena Weekly Star: !
just one merchant here has
■hipped in and sold $15,000 worth
of feed since January 15 this year.
Frank Kork and Cyril W. Slote
Just sold several hundred hales of
meadow hay They report more
money clear and less work per acre
than any crop they raise.
Think of it! One merchant in an
Arkansas village Is able to sell $15,
*00 worth of feed within three months
to the farmers of his community and 1
this after more than four years of the j
plant more-food and-feedstuffs cam-,
paign of the Profitable Farming Bu-,
swan, aided by the many government
specialists at work in the state. This
does not mean that the campaign
Called. It means merely that this
community in Polk county has failed
to adopt a safe farming plan. Had itj
been adopted the farmers would be'
thousands of dollars richer now.
The Gazette congratulates Messrs.
Rork and Slote, who “mopped up” I
because they played safe. More pow
er to them.
A second dipping vat blown up in
Polk county, this last at Board Camp.
One good citizen out there suggests
as a “punishment to fit the crime,”
the laying of the culprit across a log
ann sawing ms m*au un wun n uuii
cross-cut saw. But a conviction in
Circuit court might serve as well.
Needless to say there is only a man
here and there who would be guilty
of such a deed, and the great majori
ty at Board Camp will quickly join in
rebuilding the damaged property and
see to it that the good work of swat
ting the tick goes forward.
Flowers on P. O. Grounds.
W. H. Uorstman, government su
pervisor of construction on the new
postoffice, states he has had frequent
inquiries as to the names of the
shrubs and flowers which are on the
grounds, and in answer to these he
gives the following information: The
yellow flowers at the Maple street en
trance are Globe flowers, the white
ones on the right of the front en
trance sre Ppiraea van Houttie. Thun
there are two small Irish Juniper
trees on either side of the main en
trance*. The landscape architect who
planned, the grounds and the planting
of the shrubs and flowers is Geo. S.
Iredell of Austin, Tex.
Acorn Young People Wed.
George W. McClain and Edna M.
Barron, young people of the Acorn
community, were married on Tues
day of last week, the ceremony being
performed by Justice of the Peace S.
H. Smith. The young people left the
following day for Denver, Col., where
they will make their home. The
groom is the son of Mrs. William Pet
tigrew of Accra and the bride the
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. B. F. Bar

THE GOOD ROAD DEAL.
Harvey H. Liles, living out at
Big Fork, sends The Star the fol
lowing verses. They may be a
little lame in meter and perhaps
would not pass the criticism of
I the editor of the Ladies’ Home
j Journal or the Literary Digest,
but have the right spirit. Harvey
Liles is blind, but he “sees” more
than some others having good
eyes but who “will not see.”
In order to get any good thing thru,
! We must have good men, both plucky
and true;
Who work from dawn to setting sun—
Such men as these will get things
done.
We have men in the good roads work,
Who neither labor nor trouble shirk;
Give their money and time, and some
good day,
Th^’ll build for our county a broad
highway.
In order to get at the matter right,
Some engineers went to look out the
site;
Went to plan, among other things,
How to tear down the mountain near
Boggy Springs.
There was Jake Edwards, who drove
the truck,
Earnest, steady and full of pluck;
Where there is plan to lay, or lick to
hit,
Jake is always ready to do his bit.
And you who may this poem read,
Give equal credit to M. B. Fried;
He directs the work with zeal and
care,
And in ev’ry good movement does his
share.
And while to others we are giving a
wreath,
There is some recognition due Marion
Heath;
In planning the work it fell his lot,
To drill the hole and tamp the shift.
He will tear down the hills, blow up
the stumps,
And clear the highway of rocksr and
bumps;
Wtioroua* Via umrL a Via rVaae Vila Viaet
Give him the tools, he’ll do the rest.
And with the crew Dr. Simpson went,
To be there in case of accident;
Wherever he is, he is on the alert;
If a man is injured, he’ll bind up the
hurt.
And good with shovel and spade is he;
He’s as full of work as a man can be,
At whatever task he works with vim,
The men on the road can’t do without
him.
Now let each man in the district feel
That he has a part in the good roads
deal;
Let each do his best—no more can he
do • *
Work shoulder to shoulder till the
road’s put thru.
THAT REMINDS ME—
Happy the man, and happy he alone,
He, who can call today his own;
He who, secure within, Tan say,
Tomorrow do thy worst, for I have
lived today.
—Dryden.
Party wants to know what enter
tainment we have for summer visi
tors. Well’ let’s see. Like the “Two
Gentlemen of Verona,'1 he can “View
the Manners o' the Town” by the
White Way glare, enjoy a “Midsum

streets, listen to the Mena Cornet
band “In the Evening by the Moon

“The House by the Side of the Road,”
delight in a boat ride on the lake at
Bethesda, and as he “Hits the Trail
Homeward Bound,” take with him a
“Last Rose of Summer” as "Pleasant
Memories” of “What Might Have
Been.” Uh, huh.
One of the saddest sights in Mena
is the bunch who loaf on the post-of
fice steps waiting for the letter that
never came.
Who’ll donate grass seed or a doz
en flower bulbs for the courthouse
lawn.
Once upon a time Mena held a
pretty good fair. Watch history re

wear that Made-in-Mena Smile.

Our works are the mirror wherein

The attention of the Sanitary
Board might be called to a thesis on
the efficacy of white wash.
Whenever you hear a knocker try
ing to spill his grouch about this
town, cite him to the patriotic names
of the Polk County Free Fair Fund.
In days to come when we look back
upon the work of the stranger for the
advancement of this town, we will
then-admit we overlooked several best
bets, among them the resort at
Bethesda Springs.
“If you fall short of the amount
needed to pull off the show, come and
see me again,” remarked an enthusi
astic subscriber to the Polk County
Fair fund. It’s just such open-heart
ed progressive citizens as this that
.vill make the fair what it should be
i Any more of you?
Anybody in this baliwick want tc
turn loose their piece of terra firms
at its assessed value?
What blatters it who starts the al

without civic pride will fall in line U
keep from being p’inted out as un

I Corporations are often referred to
! as “soulless,” but there is one in
Mena that evidently isn’t of this kind.
; The Commonwealth Public Service
' Company undoubtedly must possess
a heart and have a warm corner in
that organ for Mena, judgin'g from
the manner in which it uses one of its
, big show windows to advertise a trio
of the city’s progressive movements.
I Stop at the Commonwealth’s win
dow and you’ll se a miniature White
| Way, a diminutive potato warehouse
and a section of street paving. It’s
, good advertising for the progressive
j spirit of Mena and is attracting lots
! of attention. In an adjoining window
the company shows a display of elec
, trie cooking utAsils.
! Another window where the Silent
Salesman is working to good effect
, is at the Lindsay Jewelry Company.
A showing of the famous bouth Bend
watches is attracting the passerby
and is helping sales. The Lindsay
company is the local representative
of the watch with the purple ribbon,
and is making a strong appeal with
the partial payment plan of selling.
The Duke-Magruder company and
the Boston Store again specialize on
nobby things to wear. The big show
i windows of these two stores are
tastefully arranged with the very lat
est of up-to-date footwear, headgear
and other incidentals that go to make
well-dressed men and women.
At Nall’s the feature is Easter nov- '
elties. Another particular Easter
display is at Clyde Cunningham’s,
where there are ‘‘rabbit’s nests"’,
filled withjcandy eggs.
War relics shown at W. E. Holt's
add to the interest displayed in the
work of the Silent Salesman. Those
who view the showing of souvenirs
from overseas can’t help see the sam
ples of fine footwear. The second
window doesn’t contain wearing ap
parel for the sterner sex, but is get
ting its share of masculine glances
just the same.
An effective display of goods en
masse is to be seen at Shields’. The I
firm is taking this means of calling
attention to their coming sale. Mose
ley & Son has a really pretty display
j of ladies’ waists, parasols, and rib
I bons.
| J. B. Goss is featuring baby beds |
in the window display, while next
door neighbor, J. G. Lawrence, is de- j
voting much window space to sum-1
mer footwear. S. I. Wood has an at-!
! tractive showing of dainty dress!
1 goods for summer wear, while W. W.
Townsend is featuring summer hats,
j At Petty’s patterns of house dress
j es are shown in a manner that brings
j out the full attractive effect of the
goods.
A seasonable offering is that of the
Watkins Hardware Company, where
ice cream freezers and water coolers
are offered. The new hardware store
on the Southside. now owned bv E. j
niHKescau, is me only pmee where;
fishing tackle is displayed.
Everything the family needs seems !
to be the offering at the Fair Store, j
The big windows contain a neat ar- j
rangement. of things to wear and
things to eat.
At the Bargain Store one window j
is devoted exclusively to pants.
I There are a number of show win
dows in the retail district where no
changes have been made in the past
week. There are also a number who i
have good windows who are not utiliz- ‘
ing the space for the purpose of dis
playing their wares.
BAD ROADS A KILLJOY.
Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Laselle of Cas
per, Wyo., reached Mena Monday on
| an overland auto trip to DeQueen.
They had made a trip of 1800 miles
,without any auto trouble until they ,
reached Page, Ok., when their engine
broke down and they had to be fulled
j into Mena. After having the repairs
made at the Prostor-Smith garage
I they continued their journey to De
j Queen, where Mr. Laselle owns a
: farm. To a representative of The
Star Mr. Laselle said they enjoyed
the climate and water and the seen- i
ery of Polk county, but the roads'
were a “killjoy” to them. When as
sured that good roads were coming,
he asserted in that event he would
have from $20,000 to $30,000 to in
vest in Arkansas.

JOIN THE COMMERCIAL CLUB.
Mena, Ark., April 7, 1919.
To the Editor Weekly Star.
Dear Sir: Will you kindly give me
a. little space in your valuable Weekly
lor a few remarks about the Mena
Commercial Club.
This club has done and is doing
much for Mena and the farmers of
the county, and now there has been
organized the Mena Truck & Fruit
Growers’ Association, which we hope
and believe will shortly grow into a
strong and energetic organization.
The purpose of this letter is to
make a special appeal to the farmers
of this community, who are profiting
directly and indirectly by the activi
ties of the Commercial Club, to rally
to its support. It seems to me it
would only be giving the club a square
deal for every farmer interested in
the development of this community to
come forward and take out an Annual
Membership card in the Mena Com
mercial Club. The immediate effect
of this would be to strengthen the
financial foundation on which the
club rests, and further, it would give
those who are back of the club great
er confidence and inspiration to know
that they had the farmers solidly with
them in their endeavor to make this a
better and more prosperous communi
ty
If there should be any who think
that they would not be getting their
dollar’s worth, they have only to re
collect that they also have the entire
influence and flaancial backing of the
City of Mena.

TO TRY NEW SCHOOL PLAN.
Superintendent at Stuttgart to Care
for More Students.
Special to The Star.
Little Rock, April 11.—John G.
Rossman, superintendent of the
schools at Stuttgart, reports that he
is planning a modified Gary system
for the schools next year. He says
that the school is already too large
for the magnificent new building. He
has submitted the question of the
necessary changes to a referendum
vote of the patrons and an overwhel
‘"•“K Mittjviity ria» ^une on record in
favor of the change.
The new plan, which State Superin
tendent Bond recommends for all
progressive communities, makes it
possible to house a good many more
pupils than the present building can
accommodate. It does so with a min
imum expenditure in the way of al
terations and equipment. The plan
requires more money to be paid to
teachers in the way of salaries. The
scheme uses ten per cent fewer teach
ers, calls for 40 per cent less in the
way of expenditure for building and
equipment,' and accommodates twice
as many pupils as under the old pro
gram.
TAX COLLECTION SUSPENDED.
Office Force and Bystanders Witness
Marriage Ceremony.
At the office of Collector J. A.
Thornton, the busiest place in town
in these closing hours of the payment
of county and state taxes, business
was suspended completely for about
10 minutes Thursday afternoon, while
the collector and deputies and the long
string of taxpayers witnessed the
ceremony which united C. J. Hoffman
and Mrs. S. C. Brooks as man and
wife. The ceremony was performed
by the Rev. F. F. Harrell of the First
M. E. Church, Sopth. The couple is
aged respectively 70 and 60 years," and
it was the special request of the bride
that the ceremony be performed in
the office where Miss Irene Thornton
is employed. In deference to her re
quest, the office force suspended busi
ness, and all bystanders, with uncov
ered heads, reverently gave attention
to the ceremony.
One Happy Birthday Event.
George L. Clement, son of Mr. and
Mrs. G. L. Clement, and former lino
type operator for The Star, writes
his parents under date of April 8,
that he stepped from the U. S. Bat
tleship Virginia on his 29th birthday,
having left Brest on March 26. He
adds that he will start in a few days
for Texas, probably Camp Travis, to
be mustered out of service. He left
on the overseas trip on August 6 of
last year. He assures the homefolks
that if they are all as well as he is
they do not need a doctor unless an
enlarged appetite is a bad symptom,
and as evidence of his good health, he
states that he now weighs 178 pounds
as against his normal weight of about
150 pounds.
Egger Young People Are Wed.
Koy Philpot, son of Mr. and Mrs.
W. W. Philpot and Miss Lillian Wim
berly, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Levi
Wimberly, all of Egger, were united
in marriage last Sunday at 9 o’clock
at the home of the bride’s parents,
the ceremony being performed by the
Rev. J. V. Kelley. The ceremony was
witnessed by relatives of the bride
and groom and a number of invited
friends, among whom were Mr. and
Mrs. Ivan Rowe of Mena. Following
the ceremony the bridal party and
guests partook of a splendid dinner
prepared by Mrs. Wimberly. The
young people, for the present, will
make their home with the, parents of
the groom.
Union S. S. at Old Potter.
Will Phillips, in from Old Potter
Tuesday, reports the organization last
Sunday of a union Sunday school with
Will Carr as superintendent and Miss
Stella Lowthers as secretary-treasury.
There will be a corps of four teach
ers and the interest manifested at
the organization promises a good at
tendance.

another good roads roost. ,
Eureka Springs, Ark., April 4, 1919.
Mr. Ben C. Eastin, Mena, Ark.
Friend Eastin: Glad to see you
are still on the job. I feel like the
Irishman who had never seen a tele
phone. After he and Mike, his com- 1
panion, were domiciled on the 6th
floor of the hotel, Pat strolled down
to the office. He saw the clerk using
the telephone. It excited his curi
osity. The clerk undertook to explain
it, but Pat didn’t catch on readily. J
Finally the clerk told him he would
call some friend that he could talk to.!
Pat said he knew no one in town ex
cept Mike on the 6th floor. The clerk
said all right; he would call Mike. So j
he called him up and gave Pat the
transmitter. Pat says: “Moike, is
this you?" Mike answered “Yes."
“Then put your head out the window,
I want to speak to you.”
I feel like I want to speak to you
rather than write. We came down
here about a month since, partly for
a rest and to get away from March
winds. I see you have up the road
question in Polk county, which I am
glad to see. The sooner the agitation
starts the sooner you get the roads.
It takes agitation, education, time,
patience and perseverance to accom- j
plish road improvements, tick eradi
cation, etc.
Men are not willfully opposed to
enterprises that make for their inter
est, hence the need of patience with
those who honestly believe they will
be ruined if taxed to build roads. The
facts are they will be greatly benefit
ed. If they want to sell they can find
5 buyers on a good road to one on a
bad one. If they don’t want to sell
what they save in wear on harness
and vehicles will pay their road tax,
to say nothing of the saving in time i
and the comfort and satisfaction do- j
rived from traveling over a good;
road. The men that oppose the good
road movement so strenuously now, |
will in a few years point with pride ;
to the good roads and wonder how.
they could have been so blind to their t
own interest.
You doubtless remember when at'
vvi mui ocaouiio u vw.*o mu juiv u i
vehicle to venture beyond the waved |
streets in Dallas. The bad roads put |
an embargo On traffic between the city
and farmers.
The railroad brought in the stuff
the farmers in the adjacent country
should have supplied. The result wa3
the people had to pay high prices
while the roads were bad and when
the-roads got so the farmers could get
to town he found the market supplied
from Kansas, Colorado or elsewhere,
and he had to sell for what he could
get. Now they have cardinal roads
east, west, north and south, and lat
erals so that nearly every farmer in
the country can get to market with
bis produce when it’s most in demand.
Thus he reaps the benefits of a good
market and benefits the city in saving
cost of transportation from foreign
fields. My recollection is that Dallas
county voted % of a million dollars
first and has voted more since and the j
interest and sinking fund to meet the!
bonds when due is being paid without ; I
a murmur. Now nearly all the ad
joining counties are voting bonds for I
roads. Hunt county voted $2 000,- j
000 a few days ago. It may be that I
these honest objectors are from Mis- '
souri and hove, to h» shown, and that I
takes time. I am f~orr Missouri my - i
self and had to go to " much newer I
country to be shown, bur j got the;
lesson «!1 light, and T haven’t an an- 1
tomobile either..
That’s one objection I have heard.
“I’m not going to pay tax to bu'ld 1
good roads for these automobile [
cranks to ride around on." Now 1
that’s what I cal! cutting off your no^e 1
to spite your face. Besides, do you 1
know that the law' in mpst every |
state rre so fixed that the auto man
is rayim? ipore road tax than the nv- |
oragt farmer that has four times as
much invested in his farm. I
Now, Bro. Eastin, I am not writ- 1
ing a'.1 this fo- vour benefit, but *o !
stir up your mind by way of remem- 1
hrance, for I know without a word '
from you that you know from ohser- j
vation and experience that bad roads !
are a liability to anv community.
