OUR FRANKFORT LETTER.

FRANKFORT, KY, Feb 7, 1904
DEAR PRESS: But few measures
OF importance have passed either
house this week.
The Bradley bill, requiring the
registration of voters in all the
cities and towns of the State, has
passed both houses. The person
offering to vote will be required to
show h segistrstion Certificate.
The house, by a strict party
vote, endorsed the action of Hon.
Ollie James in asking the extradi-
tion of w. S. Taylor from the
Governor of Indiana.
The greatest events of the week
were the memorial exercises or the
anniversary of the death OF Gov
VIM. Goebel and the address OF
w. j. Bryan.
The speeches of Senators Boles,
Hickman and Spsulding were elo-
quent, and touching, as they por-
trsyed the manly virtues, patriot
ism, and loyalty of their friend
our martyred governor. The servi'
ces at the grave were impressive IN
deed. The floral offerings were
profuse. representing the gifts Of
many admiring friends. The ex'
ercises we're closed wit h the ad
dress of Mr.. Bryan at the opers
house.
Gov Beokham introduced the
grea. American, who held the au
dience spellbound for nearly three
hours. 1t was pronounced b
scores who heard him on many TO
mer occasions to have been hi
best effort. Not word fell from
his lips but evidence of sincerity
honesty and exalted patriosm. M
| Bryan has lost no esteem in TIT
hearts of Ksntuckians, but Cd thu
other hand claims a greater hol'
on THAR affections. He spoke o
lGoebel as his ideal of the states
man who does his duty, even !
his life pays the penalty" for do
ing good.
The Hefin Bill, providing for
constitutional amendment for eli
minating the ignorant oolorec
vote, was practically killed in tn
house by iupefinitely postponin
same.

PARLIAMENTARY DRILL.

Every Saturday one hour will be spent in parliamentary drill, the class being open to all students. None will be permitted to graduate from any course who has not attended fifteen sessions of this drill unless such student is a member of some Literary society connected with the school and can show the same attendance there The growing tendency among the people to organize themselves into deliberative and business associations, political, religious, industrial, social, and educational, requires a knowledge of the ordinary parliamentary rules on the part of every young man or woman who would take any active part in life. This drill will be thorough, interest ing, and practical.
 SPECIAL ADVANTAGES.
 1. The most perfect climate in the United States.
 2. Mountain air and pure water
 3. The quiet and morals of country life combined with the conyeniences of a city.
 4. Thorough and experienced teachers. 5. Good laboratory for scientific work. 6. Free library and reading room. '. School all the year and pupils may enter at any time.

able to fill the positions open to them be- cause they failed to prepare beforehand. Students may enter at any time as school will be in session practically all the year through.
 MODE OF INSTRUCTION.
 Our object is to teach pupils to think, rather than to cram the memory with facts. Students who are able to think for them selves and have cultivated and disciplined their minds until they are able to master any new subject to which they apply them- selves, are truly educated. Text books furnish material for thought, and are valu- able only that far. Our object is to teach thoroughly, as we'll as rapidly, by leading the pupils in the best and most orderly line of thought.
 DISCIPLINE.
 Our aim will be to lead rather than to drive, yet good order and upright conduct will be enforced. Among body of earnest students, but few rules are necessary. Ladies and gentlemen will naturally conduct themselves properly without being forced to do so. However, it will be our earnest endeavor to throw around each pupil such moral restraint and incentives as will in- fluence him to strive for self control and for the development of true manhood and womanhood.
 Strict order and perfect conduct will be required from each student and wilful fail ure to do the right at all times will receive merited punishment.
 The right to expel or suspend any pupil for misconduct is expressly reserved by the school and will be enforced impartially. The students conduct must be that of lady or gentleman at all times and will be watch ed after as carefully out of school ho ours as in Those who enter our school must do so with the intention to devote their time and best energies to self-improvement and not pleasure. The object of making better and nobler man or woman must be kept constantly in view.
 GOLD MEDAL AND SCHOLARSHIP.
 To stimulate effort in the direction of good recitation, the school offers a gold medal of the value of Fifteen Dollars for the best recitation by any student of the school. The contest will take place February g, 1905, in the Chapel Hall To be entitled to enter this contest the student must have been in attendance at least ten weeks prior

@LOSE to the Missouri State Line " in the Northwestern part of the State of Arkansas where the Ozark Mountains reach their greatest altitude, is to be found the most perfect climate, the purest water, and the most beautiful scenery of any in the United States. The Ozsrk Rangel is not lofty as are the Rockies but in delicate beauty of form aud detail they are not ex- celled where wild nature works upon the ancient rocks. The winters are mild enough to make Outdoor life pleasant for the healthy man and the summers are tempered by the mountain breezes, cool springs and forest shade.
 In the midst of these most perfect natural surroundings is situated the town of Green Forest on the St. Louis & North Arkansas Railway. Small enough to possess none of the vices of great city, yet it is large euough to possess most of city's advan- tages.
 Railroad, telegraph, telephone, and daily papers put us into close touch with the world, yet we possess the ideal of quiet. homelike and moral surroundings SO ueCeSSafy UO Cile lOCdGlou ol d SOou oCHooI,
 The Ozark Normal is 8 new school just opening here and having it's reputation yet to make, will and must offer nothing but the very best. The citizens of the town have taken the greatest personal interest in the enterprise aud will be found ever ready to make the stay of an Ozark Normal student both pleasant and profitable. No saloons, billiard halls, or places of vice are to be found in the community. Good church buildings of several Denominations furnish ample accommodations for all. Always leading in the Educational work of this section, the citizens of Green Forest are taking such a deep interest in the Ozark Normal as to insure it's success from the start.
