KEEP OUT OF POLITICS. (Roger Sullivan)

You ask me, "Sha'l the young man go into politics end does it pay?"
 I might g ve an affi- native an- swer to the first pa,t of the quest, on and the reply to the lsst part of it in the negative. Asssuredly, 1 believe a young man should go into politics, at least, to the extent that he will exercise his rights as citizen and protect those rights as he be- lieves they should be protected, always bearing in mind the body polite and subse,ving selfish in- terests to the public good.
 But if a young man goes into politics with the idea of making money he is making a grave mis- take. In the first place, the mo- tive, if it be to make money, is not calculated to instill the young man With the proper regard for principle, and he is very apt to be caught in the net of graft. which would mean that he is prostituting principle to base purposes, and that instead of be- ing in politics for patriotic req sons, he is tI ying to find in the game an element of self-emolu- ment.
 Personally, I love polii cs. and to me it is a delightful game. l might say that it has come to be hobby with me, and l am in it for pure love of the excitement. The spirit of contest and the joy of conquest are factors in the game that tend to stir one on and keep him forever in the fray.
 Recurring to the mercenary feature of the game, 1 can say personally that l cannot see how it could be made to pay the young man of clean character and the proper motives of life.
 Stay out of politics, say, if you are going into it to make money. There are much smooth CT and pleasanter roads to travel to prosperity than on the sea of politics. where a gale is forever blowing that oftimes develops into a aquall and wrecks the craft and the man who is sailing in it.

ARKANSAS SCHOOL FOR THE BLIND.

This Institution is maintained by the State for the education of the blind children of the State. It is the public school for the blind children.
 The purpose of this institution is to give the blind children such training as will enable them to become self-supporting, self-re- specting, independent citizens.
 As the public schools are free to the seeing children, so is this school free to the blind. There is no charge for tuition, treat ment or board. The only neces- sary expense is for clothing and railroad fare, and even these are paid by the State for those who are not able to pay for them selves.
 The benefits of this institution are not only for the totally blind but for those whose eye-sight is so defective that they are not able to attend a seeing school. The legal age limit is from six to twenty-siX years.
 Pupils who are eligible to this institution are taught the literary branches included in our scho ol courses Every pupil who shows any musical ability is given a thorough traing in instrumental and vocal music. Besides this the girls are taught sewing, knit ting, and other handiwork which equips them for lives of useful ness in their homes. and the boys are taught some trade by which they may become self-supporting.
 The school Is thoroughly equip ped with all the necessary appli- ances. The children are we'll cared for and provided for, and every precaution is taken to safe guard their health, and to give them the best mental, moral and physical training.
 There are many blind children in our State whose parents do not know of the advantages pro- vided for them here. We are making every effort to reach these pupils and appeal to every citizen who knows of such chil- dren to help us to locate them. Please send us the name, age. parents name, and the address of any blind or partially blind person in your community.
 There is a separate depart ment for the negro ceildren.
 Yours Respectfully, s. D. Lucas, Supt. Little Rock.
