FOR THE BEDROOM
CRETONNE THE DAlNTIEST OF
ALL FURNISHINGS.
Harmony In Materials the Main Thing
Desirable-Paper Of Inconspicu-
Gus Design Best as Back
Ground for Pictures.

OF the various materials shown in the
shops, nothing is daintier than ere
tonne for a bedroom. There is a
freshness and crispness about the ma
terial that gives a homelike atmos-
phere. The first thing to do is to
choose a pretty and artistic design,
for there are some figures shown that
would not be appropriate If used
throughout in the furnishings Of a
room. Bureau scarfs, table covers and
bedspread can all be made Of the
<'chosen material The walls should be
covered with a paper of light tone
say a floral design-that will har-
monize with the cretonne. A plain
stripe in pale blue and white running
two-thirds the height from the base
board and surrounded by photograph
rail, while the upper third is decorated
with a lattice floral paper to har-
mOnize. The ceiling either of plain
white plaster or white mOire paper
b0rdered for about Is or IS inches. by
a continuation of the floral design,
will be a great addition. If pictures
are to be hung in the bedroom, a pa
per Of ineonspicuous design must be
used and in this case a decorative
frisze Will add TO the beauty These
come in a variety of designs and
figures.
The floor, of course, should be Of
hardwood, and if this is not possible.
it should be painted. Several rag
rugs are most appropriate if care
fully selected The woodwork and
furniture is most attractive if Of white
enamel In such a room shirt waist
and hat boxes covered with cretOnne
and setting in white enameled frames
are not only useful but quite orna-
mental
The toilet articles should be of
either ivory or ceIIuloid with the ini-
tials or monogram in the prevailing
color of the room.
How to dispose of ones possessions
is often a problem. where one room
must serve as bedroom and sitting
room. I know Of one woman who is
fortunate enough to have a very high
ceiling in her closet in which the car
penter has erected pulleys. Her best
gowns are first put in bags or well
covered, and are then hoisted far
above the other garments. Instead Of
having several unsightly boxes under
her couch, a large wooden one, almost
the size of the bed itself, is used As
the box is fitted with rollers and
handles, little eXertion is needed to
pull it out and in.
A movable open bookcase to match
the woodwork dispOses of the books
and magazines, and the top holds sew
eral good ornaments A china closet
also contains chafing-dish, percolator,
and necessary dishes for a little
supper.
Many attractive pictures adOTn the
plain papered walls, and three oriental
rugs cover a hardwood floor. A sub
stantial writing desk. chest of draw
srs, a round table and several easy
chairs complete the furnishing of this
comfortable looking room.

Handkerchief Pillow Case.

A simple and neat cover for baby's
pillow can be made from two 18inch

them together around three sides just
far enough to fit the little pillow, and
then tacking tapes to the fourth side
at the same distance to tie. Fancy
stitches or lace on the hem will make
them as ornamental as one may wish.

SPRINGFIELD.

Springfield has about twenty teachers
at the Morrilton Teachers Institute this
week. Will A. Berry from here is con-
ductor.
Since our last communication, Miss
Ollie Burns and Claud Johnson quietly
drove out to Squire Williams and had
the Court pronounce them man and
wife. We wish the young couple life
of JOY and happiness.
In rebreaking a piece of land on M.
Johnson's farm near the Cadron bridge
since the recent heavy rains and over
flows, Eugene Tucker ploughed up a
human skeleton. The pillow struck the
knee first and when it turned out he
and Bob and Claude Johnson began
searching, and digging a little deeper
unearthed almost all the bones of a
body. The bones were badly decayed
and very crumbly, but the teeth are in a
splendid state of preservation. This
find adds another link to the already
long chain of evidence that the rumor
of past crime near here is based upon,
at least, bit of truth. No one knows,
or seems to know, who, how or when
the lone corpse was buried in the field.
For years the field has been in Cultlva-
ton and had not the recent waters of
washed off the ploughed-up ground so
that the plows ran deeper than before.
the lone bones might yet be sleeping
unknown of. 1t is hoped that some
thing yet will reveal the mystery hidden
with the burial of the solitary sleeper

THE GAZETTE AND CONWAY.

other at the State Normal School. J"
Which illustrates again the pro-

We don't say one of these schools
should not be located at Conway.
We do say that the location OF

the Gazette should go out OF its

through its news columns to ig-

able obstacle, but at the same time
the Gazette's unfriendly attitude

plea in favor of Fayetteville that
was put in the platform?
AS a matter of fact, we happen
to know that no Conway influence
whatever was brought to bear
to secure the insertion of the
clause so Objectionable to the Ca
zette. Senator Otis T. Wingo of
Sewer county, who was one OF the
prominent members of the commit
tee on platform, is also a member
of the board of trustees of the
State Normal school, and it was
upon his suggestion that the loca-
ton of two of the four agricultural
colleges was fixed by the plat
form. The suggestion was ap-
proved by the entire committee,
composed as it was OF one member
each from the seven congressional
and seventeen Judicial districts of
the state. One of Senator Wingo' S
principal reasons for favoring the
Normal college as a seat of one of
the schools was the fact that mon
ey probably sufficient to support
the school can be secured from the
two great educational funds, the
Peabody fund and that of the gen
eral education board, provided it
is located in connection with the
Normal.
There is very important reason
why the trustees of these great
funds deem it wise to locate agri-
cultural colleges in connection
with Normal institutions. From
an isolated agricultural college a
graduate will go out to his farm to
put in practice what he has
learned. The benefit of his in
struction will be great, but it will
be confined probably to the town
ship in which he lives. On the
other hand, teacher who gradu-
ates from the Normal school and
has been given a thorough course
in the principles of scientific and
intelligent agriculture will go
forth to give the benefit of his
knowledge to hundreds and even
thousands of boys who will be the
farmers of the future, and these
boys in turn will in each of their
homes set an example of progress
sive farming which will appeal to
and inspire tens of thousands of
others. Teach the rural school
teacher how to teach intelligent
agriculture as part of his cur
riculum and you have solved, il
not the greatest, one of the great
est problems that now confronts
the nation.
And we predict that the next
legislature will pay somewhat more
attention to the edicts of the Dem
ocratic party assembled in its con-
vention than it will to the lima
tured filings of the Arkansas Ga
ZRtte
