HATFIELD HAPPENINGS.
Paul O'Neill has been out of school
by reason of a bilious attack.
Jackson Hogan, from Acorn, was
one of the soldier boys who came out
for the drill but was disappointed at
not getting to go thru the evolutions.
The annual cemetery cleaning and
dec-oration at Pleasant Hill will be
held on Friday, August 22. Every
body is invited to come and bring tools
and dinner. D. E. Myers, Committee.
Miss Nadine Campbell and Floyd
Myers returned from Magnolia on
Friday full of enthusiasm for the
club work and bubbling over with in
terest in what they saw and heard at
the agricultural school.
On next Sunday the Rev. Mr.
Wales-of Ashdown will begin a revival
meeting at the Baptist church. Every
one is invited to come out and take
part. It is to be hoped that much
good will be accomplished.
Mrs. Moore played the Good Samar
itan in taking care of Virginia Har
ris, who was disabled by an attack of
gastritis on Monday. Prof, and Mrs.
I. G. Harris were both obliged to be
in school, but felt easy at leaving her
in such good hands.
Prof, and Mrs. 1 G. Harris enter
tained the Misses Thelma Swiger of
Union Grove. Nellie Whit* of Acorn,
and Lottie Golden of Owens C hapel,
who visiter! the big Hatfield fnir. They
went home saying it was one of the
best fakirs they ever attendee!.
The mid-week prayer meeting at
the Methodist church was started up
again last Wednesday night with J.
O Gates in charge. All members of
this church arc asked to come out and
do their duty. A cordial* welcome is
extended to all, whether churchmems
bers or not.
The judges found it hard to decide
between the four splendid maps of
Polk county drawn by the Misses Ed
na and Erma Palmer, Milburn Hines
and Paul O’Neill. Hhenremium was
finally given to the latter. Miss-Ed
na Palmer took the premium for the
best map of Arkansas.
The visitor who saw forty-pound
watermelons, eighteen foot corn and
orner products in propuriiun at tnv
Big Fair found it hard to believe that
Hatfield suffered from a drouth this
summer. The onld thing that has
saved our farmers this year has been
the excellent cultivation.
Tlie business men of Hatfield are
considering the proposition of forming
a Commercial Club for the purpose of
upbuilding Hatfield and vicinity. This
is a splendid thing for the town and
it is to be hoped they will put it thru.
This is as important to the town as
a Farmers’ Club is to the country peo
ple and unquestionably both will be
organised in the near future.
The Board of Education is having
new locks put on the front and back
doors of the schoolbuilding. They are
determined to breakthe practice
some of the rougher element nave of
doing their loafing inside the school
building. Anyone found on the
school grounds without good and suf
ficient reasons will be prosecuted.
Thru an oversight last week no
mention was made of the marriage of
two of our leading young people, Hel
ter Littlepage and Miss Leafy An
derson. With all their other friends
we extend onr heartiest wishes for a
long and happy life. The happy
young couple will, for the present at
least, make their home in Hatfield.
The public spirit of the Hatfield
merchants during the Big Fair was
noticed by all the visitors, as the
keys of the town were handed out to
all, but the hospitality of T. R. Bates
in putting seats on his truck and tak
ing visitors from the depot to the
fair grounds was especially comment
ed on. Such things as this make peo
ple have the “Come-back-to-Hatfield”
habit and boost it to their friends us
the livest, friendliest town between
Fort Smith and Texarkana
The two games of ball between
Mena and Hatfield interested a large
and enthusiastic crowd on Friday and
Saturday. The home run knocked by
Arthur Cobb was what made the
score of 9 to 7 in favor of Hatfield
possible. His enthusiastic friends
presented him with a ten dollar silver
offering as a slight token of their es
teem and gratitude. The Saturday
game was much more closely contest
ed. being 3 to 2 in favor of Hatfield.
Neither age nor sex was a bar to ex
< toil rooting in both games by the
Vatfield fans. Loyalty to home insti
tutions is a Hatfield trait and it en
couraged the home team to “bring
home the bacon.”
The exhibit of fine stock was an
eye-opener to the man who expected
to see razor backs and scrub cattle.
The big Poland China hogs of Ford
Younce’s. the splendid Red-Poll bull
shown by J. ». Cobb ana the nnc
Black-Polled bull exhibited by W. J.
Davis were certainly encouraging to
the man who wants to see Polk county
come into its own in stock-raising.
The writer recalls the scrubby cat
tle seen by him when he came here
eight years ago, not over two pure
bred bulls in the county and he calls
your attention to old Polk’s “going
sometiveness,” now. There are prob
ably thirty-five to forty owned in the
county at present. With the elimina
tion of the tick it is going to pay to
raise cattle here.

A plan to combine Union Grove and
Holly Springs schools and form a con
solidated district is being talk 'd. It is
hoped that it will be successful. A
good tw6-room school here would add
a hundred dollars selling value to ev
ery farm in theqe districts and its
value to the boys and girls is beyond
all calculation. It would enable the
schools to secure abler, better quali
fied teachers and would advertise this
community as one of the progressive
ones in Polk county. Let all the good
people think it over, tulk it over and
next year build a good two-room
house and have a school that will put
Ouachita township on the map of
progress. County Superintendents
and all educators are strong for con
solidation.
Jim Swiger is busy trying to round
up subscribers to the schoolhouse
fund. Public spirit is not measured

posed to take but little interest in a
schoolhouse at Union Grove. These
men are J. G. Jackson, the Mena drug
gist, and W. F. Hunt, who is the own
er of the old Kenworthy farm. ' Each
of these citizens agreed to pay ten
dollars toward a ugw school house. If
more of us, who have children would
exhibit a public spirit like this, edu
cational affairs in Polk county would
soon look up. This spirit is what
Pedagogue calls true patriotism, love
of country because the little county
school house is the cradle of civilisa
tion.

WILSON REFUSES TO FUR
NISH DOCUMENTS TO SENATE
Impossible to Comply With Request
for Data. President Declares—An
Enormous Mass.
Washington, Aug. 11.—President
Wilson wrote Chairman Lodge of the
senate foreign relations committee
that ;;t would not be possible to com
ply with the cimmittee’s request for
the documents used by the American
peace commissioners at Paris in ne
gotiating the peace treaty.
“The various data bearing \jpon or
used in connection with the treaty of
peace with Germany,” said the presi
dent, “are »u miscellaneous and enor
mous in mass that it would be impos
sible for me to supply them without
bringing from Paris the whole tile of
papers of the commission itself and
would include many memoranda
which it was agreed, on grounds of
policy, it would be unwise to make use
of outside the conference.”
The president sent Chairman Lodge
the informal draft of the League of
Nations covenant presented by the
American peace commissioners at
Paris and also the formal report of
the commission on the League of Na
tions.
CANCELING REVENUE STAMPS.
Penalty for Neglecting to Take Steps
to Destroy for Further Use.
Little Rock, Aug. 7.—Dealers are
warned in a statement issued by the
Bureau of Internal Revenue that pro
prietary stamps by means of which the
tax on toilet and medicinal articles is
collected must be cancelled when the
article is sold. Recently there have
been received by the Bureau numer
ous uncancelled stamps taken from
taxable articles purchased at drug
stores.
Regulation 51, relating to the col
lection of the tax on toilet and medi
cinal articles, provides that each stamp
affixed to a taxable article must be
cancelled in such'manner as to prevent
its further use. ‘‘If possible,” the
regulations state, “the stamp should
he affixed to the outside of the pack
age or container of the taxed commod
itv so that unon nneninir the same the
stamp will be destroyed. The initial
or name of the vendor, together with
the date when the stump was affixed
or cancelled, must appear on the can
celled stamp.”
This provision, the Bureau states,
will be strictly enforced.
The penalty for making use of a
stamp to denote the tax imposed with
out cancelling the stamp is a fine of
net more than $100.

THE UNIVERSAL CAR
Repairing Guaranteed I
When I am sick, in punk condition, when I am t
lame and blind and halt, I hire the city’s heat physi
cian, then if 1 die it’s not my fault. The big phys,!
cians charge like thunder, they charge oach time they
draw a breath, but they give value for the plunder;
they show uighow to sidestep death. W'hen my old
auto’s in a panic, with many doodads breaking loose,
1 hire the very best mechanic that our small village
can produce. He has no conscience when he charges :
so odsfish, I sometimes think; but he can fix our
boats and barges when they are strictly on the blink. I
Some other gents might do it cheaper, but when we
count the final cost, we find expenses running deep- IT
er; the tinhorn worker is a frost. The tinhorn H
workman badly botches all things entrusted to his H
II care; he spoils o,ur pants and hats and watches, and*
bungles when he cuts our hair. When I decide to
paint my stable. I’d hire a Titian at his best, some
grand old master, amply able to make all rivals seem
a jest. I patronize the ablest baker that in this
|| country hamlet dwells, and when I die my undertaker ;j
must be the one who’s wearing bells. ;
