q The regular school election for
electing two trustees will be held
the frst Monday in September and
the importance Of this event should
not be overlooked by the citizens
Of this district. No one factor has
done . much toward building up
this town as the pueblo schools and
thoir influence in that direction
should be increased rather than
diminished. To have the best
schools It is just az importans to
haEe good trustees a. to have com.
petent teachers. To have q good
trustee You must select some one
who has more than . passing
interest in the schools. A man
may be ! good citizen or . sue
cessful business man and yet be
wholly unqualified to hire teachers.
Personal friendship, business inter-
eats, political affiliations, or church
membership are not factors to be
considered in passing upon an APP
plication for . position in the
school, yet, too often they govern
the decision Of the board. Men
who would not be influenced by
these elements can be found and
such men should be elected school
trustees.

ROCKEFELLER WEARS GRAY WIG
Makes First Appearance in chruch
and Is Much Embarrassed.

Cleveland. Sept. 5.-John D. Rccke-
feller at last has hair on his head or
rather. he did have when he appeared
at the Euclid Avenue Baptist church.
The hair was steel gray hair wig,
closely cropped in the back and trim
med round. The oil king wore it with
evident embarra ssment. 1t was the
first time the congregation had seen
him otherwise than with a very bald
head for many months. Such re-
markable growth in a single week was
disconcerting. to say the least. The
brethren clasped Mr. Rockefeller's
hand as usual at the close of the SER
vice, but there was an unnatural air
of restraint that the petroleum mag
rate was not slow to notice. and he
escaped to his automobile with an eyi-
dent feeling of relief

The teachers of the Branch Normal
college were considerably surprised
yesterday to find that d, spite the
quarantine and the hard times gener-
ally caused by the yellow fever, the
enrolment was larger than it has
been for four years.
On the first day of the opening OF
the school for the years l9O2-03 the
enrolment was 10: for 10000 was
y: for 1904-05 was "a, and for the
present term 1905-OG, was SO. Prin-
cipal Fisher while not expecting any
serious falling off in the enrolment
on the account of the quarantine reg
ulations, did not expect to see so
large an increase. The fact is, as in
dicated in the Graphic few days ago
he did expect that the school would
suffer some in connection with it's en-
rollment. This increase speaks we'll
for the management of the school and
will certainly encourage those who
are connected with it.

WISE SELECTION
JOHN r. BLOOM CHOSEN BY THE
COUNCIL AS ELECTRICAL
INSPECTOR.
We Has Specially Prepared Himself
for the Duties and Viii! FIJI the
Position We'll.

TIL" election of John f. Bloom as
Electrical inspector for the city of
Pine Bluff was a wise selection. 1t Is
1 compliment 10 a worthy young man.
aud his fitness for the position viii
prove Of great benefit to the city in
this neW place which is of so much
Importance to everybody in the city.
Mr Bloom has especially prepared
himself fer the duties of just such q
which is SO necessary fer the iucum-
bea1 of this new office
His first educational training was
received in the city schools of Pine
laff. graduating at the high school.
IL 1900 he attended the Armour In

graduating with the degree of bachel-
or of electrical engineering
During the scholastic year of 1904-O5
OF the University of Arkansas he held
seat in the department of electricity
and physics.
For the past two years the Graphic
has earnestly urged the Importance
and necessity of an electrical inspec-
tor as means of protection to the
life and property of the citizens of
Pine Bluff Recently the city coun-
Gil passed an ordinance creating the
office of electrical inspector. The elec-
tion of an inspector was deferred for
a brief time to give applicants for the
position an opportunity to be heard
from. The election took place
Monday night. Mr.. Bloom re-
ceived the caucus nomination.
and was then unanimously elected by
the council
The Graphic predicts that he will
admirably fill the duties of the place
and that it will not be long before this
city will be free from the very inferior
electrical wiring of which there is
much.
