BOARD MADE NO MISTAKE
Arkansas Democrat Believes Conway De-
 served to Get State Normal.

An editorial in Tuesdays Ark ansas Democrat says:
 Since there was evidently no one in Little Rock except the newspapers, few school teachers, and some others with more enthu- siasm than money, that wanted the state normal school located here, the board certainly made no mistake in locating 1t at Conway.
 This is not said in disparage- ment of the advantages that were offered by Benton, Russellvllle, Fort Smith or Quitman, but Ill recognition of the eminent advan- tages possessed by Conway.
 It is a college town, Hendrix and Central being institutions that have brought it prominently to the front during tue last few years.
 The people are proud of their schools, and this will only add to the list another that will attract the attention of the whole state to Conway as an educational center.
 While 1t has only one line ot railway, still it is most accessible from Little Rock and the west, and is located near the center ot the state.
 Conway is not so large that Its mercantile and commercial inter ests outstrip its educational inter ests, and its citizens think college, talk college, and force their col leges to the front at every opportu- nity. .
 It is an atmosphere that will mean much for the teachers who will go there to attend the normal school.
 Little Rock made sad mistake in permitting this school to go elsewhere, for, aside from all the advantages possessed by Conway, the state capital is its logical site.
