MAKING TRAMPS WORK.

A state farm for tramps IS pro- posed by Joseph c. Baldwin, Jr., of the New York state board of chari- ties, and he intends to place the mat ter before the legislature. His plan ia to have tramps detained for long period and made to work, rendering the institution self-supporting. Bald win believes tramps will eventually leave the state rather than work. The basic idea Is sound, whatever IS to be said for the state farm detail of the plan. The only way to meet the tramp evil is by making the tramp work-even if he is detained but 12 hours. It is problem in this state quite as much as in New York; Boston Advertiser.

FOREIGN CITIES WASHED.
An, We must all die." No: some bleach!"

American women are clean enough as far as their homes are concerned, but they often very grudgingly give any work to the municipality. In Germany there is nightly washing of the cities that makes everything clean to the eye when morning comes, and the Dutch housewife considers the pavement in front of her house a responsibility of Ter own and scrubs it lmtil it is clean enough to cal from.

CHEAP METHOD OF DRAINING
WindmiIls of Holland Are Practically Indispensable to the h.
 habitants.

The windmills of Holland have as their chief function the draining or the polders, or meadows, in the spring. when the thawing weather fills these meadows with water. Hol- land is a very damp country at all times, and without this cheap means of drawing the water off of the land the people would be in sore straits indeed.
 All along the dykes may be seen these windmills, silently but surely performing their function of drain ing the lowlands. Steam pumps are used in some places, and probably will be used in the gigantic under taking that Holland now has on foot of draining the Zuyder Zee, but doubtless windmills will always be a distinctive feature of Dutch land scapes, for the wind rarely ever fails in that country, and there Is prac- tically no expense attached to the op- eratien of these mills.
 Even in the heart of Rotterdam there is large windmill for grind ing corn and wheat, and while one would think that in the city the buildings would break the wind so that mill couldn not be used satis- factorily, nothing seems to interrupt this old landmark as it steadily grinds away day in and day out the year round.

MCRAE SCHOOL NOTES.

Our school is in a better con- dition now than it has been since the term of '06-07.
 School department and street decorum are both excellent.
 For February, out of an enroll mant eff 296 pupils, there were 24 tardy marks, and seven Hates" 'Lates" means those who come in after the chappell exercises are over and are sent home to stay till noon. We are so elevated over the fact of hay ing library in our school until we want it aired abroad that the McRae High School is second to none in Arkansas.
 Hon. c. c. Hamby was the first to contribute a book to our library and several pupils have contributed also. The credit ot having library in our school IS due to our principal, Prof. J. U. Shackleford, who keeps a vlgl. lant eye on our worthy superln- tendent, Prof. o. L. Dunaway.
 The school will give an enter tainment on the evening of Mar. 15, for the benefit of the library, and putting out shade tress. Everybody is cordially invited to ''come over into Macedonia and help us". Mary Jane Clark and Isabella Tidwell make the boys look up to them every morning in Intellectual arithmetic.
 Johnny and James Olliver,sev- enth and ninth grades respec- lively, were absent from school thls week on account of helping their father to commence his crop
 On last Tuesday the school was visited by Rev. c. w. Welch and Prof. w. Harrison Sane of Nor fork, Virginia. The latter gave us a good lecture on Industry and Intelligence" The nezt report will give a full ], list of those who have contribut- ed books to the library.
 We urge the patrons to send their children to school on time. as punctuality is essential to thorough development of man. hood and womanhood.
 We had several visitors on Fri day evening, among whom were Nr. Alex. Vaughn and Rev. c. ". Welch who made some very interesting remarks to the school.
 The subject for debate was: ''That a man without children should pay school!tax." Afr native, Gustavia Silas. Isabella Tidwell Negative, Willie Rich- ardson and Orlando Tidwell. Judges, Laura Williamson, Der nice Hughey and David Terry. The judges decided in favor of the affirmative.
