Tho lights, flowers, and Jewels

counted one of the most beautiful
women on the continent, was as regal
as a queen should be.
But who was the girl who entered
the great state apartment upon the arm

quite wonderful and stately gown of

all their splendbr, could not rob her

Misconception of
Oriental Women.
When I asked Mime. Ibrahim Zia -
she aspired TO become a factor in the
still further broadening of the Oriental
woman. she replied
That question sounds typically like
US Americans. In the American mind,
o.. [ may say, The AngIo-Saxon mind,
there is miscOnception regarding the
women of the Orient. Why. feel as IL
had everything to- learn fron her, and
patnetically little TO teach her.

ing a half barbaric creature, as so
many believe, is the flower of civili-
Zation, older and in some respects fin
er than that achieved by the Occi-
dent. When / first went to Turkey. I
myself was surprised at the Oriental
woman. Her reading. the extent OF
her information on public questions,

lage Creek Levee Disl ict=
Argued in Chancery.

In the Jackson chancery court
Saturday before Judge George
T. HUMPHREYS was argued the in
junction proceeding of numer-
GUS property owners in the
White River and Village Creek
Levec district against John H.
Keel and other officers of the
district, asking that defendants
be restrained from the collec-
ton of taxes and other proceed
ings, pending the courts decis-
ion as to the validity of the spe-
cial act creating the district.
The petitioners represent
6,224 acres of land within the
district and either side is eX-
pected to carry the case to the
supreme court for final settle
ment.
The most important obiec-
tions to the act creating the dis
trict are based upon it's nom
conformance to the recent Init
ative and Referendum constitu-
tional amendment and the case
will thus be of interest to at
torneys throughout the state.
Stayton and Stayton of New
port, McCaleb and Reeder of
Batesville represent the plain
tiffs and Stuckey and Stuckey
and Morris Cohn of Little Rock
the defendants.
The chief points made against
the validity of the act creating
the district are;
It has no enabling clause,
as required by the Initiative and
Referendum Amendment.
2. The boundaries of the dis
trict are so vague, that it can
not be said with certainty whose
land lies within the district.
3. Act was not submitted to
the voters of the district nor
was a method of such submits
sion provided for.
4. Act provides it shall take
effect from and after it's pas
sage and does not contain the
emergency clause.
5. The proceedings of the
directors and assessors of the
district were had before the eX-
piration of 80 days after the
legislature adjourned.
6. The assessment is confls-
catory.

Evangelist Hobbies preached

After pulling every possible
string to prevent the passage
LOT the various statehood reso.

claims the credit for securing
statehood. This is a most
amusing claim to many who

eye witnesses of his wonder
ful work for @ statehood. An.

regularity of his elections as

mon knowledge, not only at

known that he has lost his

not considered an important
factor in the counsels of his
own part. More brainy,if not
more cleanly men have sue
