PRO-. A. C.. MILLAR
RESIGNS AS PRESIDENT OF HEN
DIRK COLLEGE
At Conway, After Filling the position
satisfactorily for Fifteen
Years.

A Conway telegram to the Little
Rock Gazette says:
President A. c. Milar has rendered
his resignation as president of Hen
dirk college. This action has thor
oughly moved the town of Conway
and doubtless will be greatly regret
ted By his many friends over the state.
1t is reported that he has had the mat
ter under advisement for some time
and has chosen this time because he
thinks the college is in such pros
porous condition that his leaving will
not embarrass the board The public
may be assured that his action is net
precipitous. He does not do things
that way His action is, of course,
voluntary and doubtless against the
preference of every member Of the
board. He took charge of the college
fifteen years ago, when the COLLEGE
was at Altus i'll cheap quarters and i'll
infancy. Now it is recognized as one
of the stronger colleges Of the South
and has high curriculum. The col
| lege has strong academies at Mena.
| ImbGden and Gentry, and the college.
with its branches, is worth between
| 81 80 900 and $4,000. This is largely
! the work OF President Mil!ar in the
fifteen years. so far as his work has
| taken material form. This is a great
achievement and is high testimony
to the ability and self-sacrificing char
actnr Of President Mil1ar
President Millar hates shams in ev-
erything and hence has stood for hon
esty in education. He has never re-
sorted to cheap, claptrap methods Of
advertisement and canvassing. His
methods are honest, straightforward.
His agents are instructed never to cut
rates, never to solicit young man
who is already a student of another
college, and to respect the legitimate
field of the secondary schools. He has
been a generous friend Of the public
high schools, the academies and pub
lie schools He has never been the
man to build on the ruins Of others.
AS citizen President Millar takes
broad views of public questions and
has actively interested himself in
some Of them. His notable service for
the cause of good roads in this state
stamps him a statesman. 1t is a loss
not only to education, but to the state
to lose such a man. His successor
has not been selected, but the board
will soon take the matter up.

The Scales on the Hair,

If you look at a human hair under
the microscope. you will find that its
surface is formed of successive over
tapping scales. The bristles Of the hog
bear much resemblance to the human
hair, though their diameter is greater
and the tilelike scales are much finer.
Sleeps hair has much coarser scales
1t is owing to the existence of these
scales that schoolboy is able by Pc
culiar process to tell which is the tip
and which the other end of hair roll
ing it between his finger and thumb.
Thus manipulated, the hair always
travels in the direction of the base be-
cause the edges Of the scales prevent
it from going the other way.

Her Marriage Dot.

The Emperor Joseph II. was in the
habit of walking about incognito. One
morning he went into coffee shop
and asked for a cup Of chocolate.
He was plainly dressed and the wait
ers, being ignorant of his rank, in
solently refused it, saying it was too
early.
Without making any reply he
walked out and went into little cof-
fee house hard by and asked for a
cup of chocolate The landlord an
swcrcd that it should be ready in a
moment.
While he waited for it he walked
up and down and was conversing on
different subjects when the landlord $
daughter, a very pretty girl, made
her appearance.
The emperor wished her good day
and observed to her father that it was
high time IL flower in full bloom
should marry before it faded
"Ah," replied the honest old man,
eff | had but a thousand crowns |
could marry her to a fine young man
who is very fond of her! But, sir,
the chocolate is ready
The emperor called for pen, INK
and paper. The Girl ran to fetch them,
when he gave her an order on his
banker fer tie thousand eroWns.

The Graphic can not be truthfully

the fact that the Soliphone continues
to ignore the statements of Senator
Jones and his comrades with reference

Governor Ferguson Calls Attention tc
Legislative Enactment.

In al ages men have loved trees.
The beauty Of their foliage. their
grateful shade in the heats of sum
mer, and the protection of their en-
comprising branches from the blasts
Of winter, led primitive men to pur-
sue the trackless ways of the sea,
and from their trunks, were carved
the very sinews OF civilization. Year
after year. the blossoming Of trees
gladdens the hearts of men with the
promise of renewed life. To plant
trees is TO assist nature in perpem-
ating one OF her most priceless gifts
90 humanity.
The legislative assembly of the ter
ritory yenactment on March s. 1901,
designated the Friday following the
second Monday OF March in each yea
as Arbor Day and declared that
IT shall be the duty Of the authori-
ties of the public schools in this ter
ritory. to assemble the pupils in their
charge on that day in the school build
ing, or elsewhere. as may be deemed
proper to provide for and conduct.
under the general supervision of the
county superintendent or city super
intendent, or other chief officers hav-
ing the general oversight of the public
schools IN each county or city, such
exercises as shall tend 10 encourage
the planting, protection and preserya-
tion of trees and shrubs, and an ae.
quaintance with the best methods to
be adopted to accomplish such re.

Therefore. |. T. B. Ferguson, COVER.

the law and upon the people generally
10 observe The day In identifying and
adorning the grounds, public and pri-
