1t was Christmas time, and a large
and distinguished party was invited
to the boys house for dinner He
was drilled in manners Cor the occa-
sion. He was especially warned to
be silent
Promise not to speak till you are
asked a question" said his mother
And this the boy solemnly promised
to do.
A. dinner he was full of curiosity
and animation, turning his big interest
ed eyes on every face, and the fish
course had arrived without a word
Or sound from him. BY that time,
however, his patience was exhausted,
and he cried TO his mother peevishly
Say, mamma, when are they going
to start questioning me?"

THE Log Cabin Democrat has been
subjected to some criticism because
the Daily Edition of each Saturday
does not always carry the announce
ments of the Sunday services at all
of the local churches, and we have
even been charged with unfair dis
elimination in this matter. We are
sure that no one familiar with the
facts would attach any blame against
the paper for this reason. For a long
time we endeavored to secure these
notices each Saturday from the pas
tors, but frequently found it impossi-
bic to get them, as the ministers were
often out of town or out of reach of
the telephone. We finally announced
to the pastors that we would publish
all announcements of Sunday services
free of charge, provided that they
would furnish the notices, either per-
sonally, by telephone or letter, but
that we would no longer undertake to
gather up the announcements our
selves. This is the custom with all
daily newspapers, and when the pas
tors of the churches do not care to
avail themselves of the use of our col
umns for their announcements, we do
not feel that we should seek to force
them to do so.

WILL RUSSELLVILLE MAKE
GOOD?

According to the Courier-Democrat,
Russellville is facing crisis. That
progressive little city has been
awarded the location of the Second
district agricultural school, upon its
proposal of bonus of $4,000 cash,
22O acres of land and free water and
lights for three years. In order to
make good their promise, about $15,-
600 more must be raised among their
citizens. Mass meetings are beng
held almost every night and the Cour-
ier-Democrat is endeavoring to arouse
the citizens to the Importance of the
occasion. Yesterdays issue sums up
the situation in the following words:
"a total of about SAG, 900 had been
subscribed up to last night. Our bid
was $40 900 cash, 220 acres of land
and free water and lights for three
years. The site will cost approx
mately $4,000, water and lights per-
haps $4,000, and with the very liberal
allowance of $4,000 for loss or unpaid
subscriptions, it brings the total up
to at least 100000 which must be
subscribed in order to make good our
offer. Fifteen thousand dollars or
more remains to be raised. Where is
it coming from?'
Russellville needs to be inoculated
with the Conway spirit-the spirit
of never fail, Conway has given to its
three colleges nearly a quarter of a
million dollars and at the same time
has supported its public schools in the
most liberal manner and has just
completed a public school building
costing nearly $4,000. But every
time we secured college we faced the
same crosis with which Russellville is
now confronted. When our bid for
the State Normal was accepted, we
lacked several thousands of dollars of
having the money subscribed with
which to pay our bonus. The citizens,
however, bravely rallied, increased
their subscriptions, paid every dollar
of the bonus and met every condition
of their proposition. And there is
not man or woman in Conway who
does not believe that the Normal will
be worth to the town ten dollars for
every one dollar put into it.

COLD WAVE ARRIVES
ON SCHEDULED Time

The cold wave predicted by the
weather bureau yesterday arrived on
schedule time and the wintry weather
today is in marked contrast with the
two previous days. Early this morn
ing the wind shifted to the north and
the mercury fell over 80 degrees in
less than II hours, standing two de-
grees below freezing at o'clock this
morning. The cold wave is accompa
MED by a light drizzle of rain, sleet
and snow, which freezes as it strike
the earth.
Fruit growers are much pleased
with the weather conditions for the
past few weeks and say that if the
weather will remain cold few weeks
longer there will be no danger of the
fruit being killed At this time last
year, peach and plum trees were in
full bloom all over the county, and
subsequent freezing weather practic-
ally destroyed the crop. This year the
trees have been held back by continu-
ed cold weather and have scarcely
begun to bud

There are seven 81 believes" in the
above and the credo seems complete.
1t seems to me that nothing should
be added or taken away. A teacher
believing and living such creed in
the country school will be an inspira-
ton force to country children. The
country school needs more of wisdom
in human lives. Too often the wis
dom as revealed in what men have
said or done in the past, as recorded
on the printed page, is considered the
only educational material worth while.
Such a teacher will teach by example
the true dignity of work with the
kands,' and Danish the false idea that
an education will somehow enable one
to get living without work.
A teacher living this creed will
teach her children to see and appre-
ciate the wondrous beauty of country
life the country road the cluster
of oak trees, the clover field the trail
ing grapevines, the wild flowers, the
wild crabtree, and the babbling brook.
She will help to spiritualize country
thought and life, for she believes in
beauty in the school room, in the
home in daily life and out of doors. >
Such a teacher cannot be content with
merely drawing her salary while the
schoolhouse and grounds remain
cheerless and desolate. In some way
the forces of the district will be or
gained for better things. The par
ents will be reached through the chill
dren. for the teacher believes Gin all
ideals and distant hopes that lure us
on" Her salary is what? you ask.
| do not know. She belongs to that
small class of public servants who
earn a great deal more than they re-
ceive. 1t may be that in lives trans
formed by her influence is a compen-
sation greater than gold. At any rate
in "the JOY of serving another" there
comes the hourly reward for all we
are and all we do" If every country
school teacher in the United States
could only grasp the true significance
of present conditions and future pos
sibiHties of the country school, could
have faith in the inspirational power
of life illumined with the divine joy
Of living; in short, if every country
school teacher would actually live the
above creed for five years, the nation
would witness the greatest change
ever wrought in the history Of the
American public school. - Kern's
