KINDNESS.

WOIlu. IL Is t1e very pTlnClple OF love,
an emanation of the heart which softens
and gladdens, and should be inculcated
and encouraged in all our intercourse
with our fellow beings. 1t is impossible
to resist continued kindness. We NAV
in moment of petulance or passion,
manifest coldness to the exhibition of
good will on the part Of a new acquaint-
ance; but let HIM persist, let him con-
tinue to prove himself really benevolent
of heart, generously and kindly disposed,
and we will find our stubborn nature
giving away, even unconsciously to our
selves. If this be the result of kindness
among comparative strangers. how much
more certain and delightful will be the
exercise of the feelings at home, within
the charmed circle of friends and rela-
tives? Home enioyments, home affec-
tions, home courtesies, cannot be too
carefully or steadily cultivated. They
form the sunshine of the heart. They
bless and sanctify our private circle.
They become source of calm delight
to the man of business after a day of
toll, they teach the merchant, the trader,
the working man, that there is some
thing purer, more precious even, than

best and purest emotions and resources,

right, more Christian, in all our relations
of life. We see in the little beings
around us the elements of fidelity and
religion. A day of toll is robbed of
many of its cares by the thought that in
the evening we may return home and
mingle with the family household.

Al recent Ministerial convention one
of the preachers suggested that it would
not be bad idea to have a sermon oc-
casonally on the recognition of friends
on earth. He said many people were so
taken up with the good time that they
expected to have in the sky that thev
forgot to be sociable here. His head
was level, and we hope that his sensible
words will be about the same as putting
another stove in every church.

actions will commend themselves to

ous than helpful, and the distribution
Of funds ought to be by sympathetic
hands; but sympathetic hands wisely
directed Spasmodic enthusiasm over
such a matter as this is easily general
ed but we will want this to last. Now
my suggestion:
Let every fraternal order, every
church, the city council and the Board
of Trade contribute SO each to start
with. This ought to last six or twelve
months, at least. If the investment
appears to the various organizations
wise one, there will be no trouble in
getting r,ore money. The purpose of
each frat rnal order is not only to help
it's own needy members, but also to
lend a helping hand to suffering hu-
manity whenever possible. Then let
GclCH IIdttIldl OIuGI, CdIil SilulNlIs NliS
Board of Trade and the city council
appoint one member to represent that
body in this charitable work. These
different representatives would consti-
tute an executive committee, which
committee would gather subscriptions,
disburse funds and publish such state
ments periodically as it might wish.
OF course the executive committee
could appoint subcommittee to have
charge of different departments of the
work My idea is that the churches
would appoint ladies. The counsel and
cooperation of ladies is essential, of
course, to the highest degree of sue
cess.

made somewhere, ! will pring this

A. F. W. c. CONVENTION
TO BE GIVEN HOSPITALITY AT
CONVENTION HERE IN
APRIL.

There was a full attendance of the
Local Nine at the Bank of Conway
yesterday afternoon, to confer with
the committee from the Board of
Trade with reference to entertaining
the Federation of Women's Clubs. 1t
was the consensus of opinion that Con-
way ought to put her best foot for
ward on this occasion, for there has
never assembled in this city a more
cultured or more representative body
than will be the coming federation.
The delegates who will come here are
leaders in thought and activities in
their respective communities, and we
will want them to carry away the best
sort of impression of Conway and her
citizens.
The committee from the Board of
Trade assured the ladies that the
board would be glad to lend its infiu-
ence and assistance to whatever plan
would best promote the hospitable en-
tertainment of the delegates while in
this city. They declared it would not
only be a pleasant privilege to enter
tain so many representative women
from all parts of Arkansas, but said
it would be one of the most effective
advertisements the city has yet had.

VISIT SCHOOLS.


EQlCOf Log 1dDlll
We have just entered upon the sec
ond half of the years work, and all
the pupils have taken their places in
the grades to which promoted, and the
change has been with such ease that
none of us feels that promotions have
been made. A larger per cent of the
pupils made good grades than in the
past, and some have awakened since
then, and, | trust, are doing better
work. Some of these need the help
in the home. Not that you do the
work for them, but see that the work
is done and the parent should arouse
interest in his child and get him to
feel that he must make progress in his
work. A teacher cannot change a
child completely. If he is careless IN
his home, does not like to get up his
work, he is the same in school. If
the parent whose love for the child
cannot be questioned by the child, can
not change the purpose and DISPOSE
ton of the child, quite likely the teach
er will not be able to do much for
him.
| feel sure that if the parents Of the
town, men as we'll as women, would
visit the school and hear your child
recite and see the interest or lack of
interest shown, the attitude that he
takes toward things in general, you
will know more about him and will be
in better position to render to him
more helpful service. What needs
your care and attention more than
your child? What can be of more
value than your child? What can
give you more real happiness than
your child? What can give you more
real sorrow than your child? If our
children are so vital to the life of each
one of us, can we do less than to visit
them frequently while at their work?
You need to be in vital touch with the
teacher who mas so much to DO with
the life of your boy or girl We, your
teachers, need your cooperation and
advice. The school as a whole needs
you, and while we have had quite a
number in the past we hope for more
to visit US in the future.

never better. Some little friction, but
