BILL TO RECLAIM
 CADRON BOTTOMS

The bill providing for the reclama- tion of about 50,000 acres of land in t"n C"dror creo'r bottoms hv tho con- struction of a dam across the stream at Gleason was introduced in the low CT house Saturday afternoon by Rep resentative w. W. Martin. The di- rectors of the district are named in the bill and are composed of J. D. Col Her, s. D. Freeman, D. O. Harton, s. s. ourratt and F. U. Halter. As pre- viously outlined in this paper, the pro posed dam will prevent the backwater of the Arkansas river from overflow
 ing the creek bottoms and thus pro- tect at very small cost a vast area of rich land along both sides of the stream north and east of Gelason.

my successor, 1 want it taken up as an original proposition, and I mo. t certainly shall not do so now, with ten year record behind me. If you need different management the change can be made without any i'll feeling or friction. You are the guardians of the interest of the col leee and the cause is above the per sonal interest of any man. For the best interest of the college am sure some action should be taken soon.'
 I have just received notice of my official reelection to the position of presidency for another year, and have thought it best to decline it. l do this for private reasons, and because l do not feel that I can cooperate with the board in certain policies they out line I have no quarrel with them they are my friends and they have perfect right to their opinions, but it is not right for me to undertake work in a half-hearted manner, be- cause I can not believe it best.
 The college ought now to begin a larger work when it's debts are paid. A new man can bring new ideas to 1t, and it's friends should stand close to it. No great cause depends on one man alone.
 I love Conway and it's people and l would not be human if I did not love Central. During my stay l have tried to do my part as progressive citi- zen and shall not leave without bangs. I count my Conway friends my great est asset. Among my liabilities, which I share with every other pro- gressive citizen, are few who find it more congenial to knock than to re- pay a personal favor. They are an annoyance, but I want it distinctly understood that I never allowed them to shape my life purpose.
 I am anxious for the success of the college and hope everyone in Conway will rally to it's support. It really ought to mean more to C0nicay lie than any school she has except the public school.

found the walls and floors bare, the | furniture in bad condition and the | buildings in bad state of repair. | The former management had done it's eest, and had incurred private debts which ten years of hard work has | not been able to satisfy. We have | zealously striven year by year to inn prove these conditions. As Central is a home school for girls, we have felt that the young women who come to us were entitled to neat. beautiful and homelike surroundings. The amount of money at our command for meeting these demands has been en- tirely inadequate. They have been met, however, at very little cost to the Hollege. This has been accomplished through the personal labor of Mrs. Rivers, seconded by the teachers. It has cost labor and sacrifice. Steam heat has been put in. the campus has been improved, the library and labor atory have been built up; new and better furniture has replaced the old, new pianos have been secured, and the graduating classes have left beauti- ful and valuable memorials.
 FINANCIAL
 Ut has always been my policy with my own business as we'll as that of the college, to live within my income | I have seen many things I wanted and actually needed, but have refrain ed from buying, because I did not feel justified in spending money that did not belong to me. 1 realize that my conservatism has brought severe crit ;oic results at Central with those obtained elsewhere and who do not stop to count the cost The school has been made practically self-suppotring dur ing the ten years of my incumbency It is true that each year has been an increase in the debt, but the interest on the debt already incurred, together with the amount invested in perma- nent improvements, will more than compensate for this increase. De- nominational troubles arose shortly after I assumed control of Central. With faith in the future of the cause and in my brethren l hopefully put my life into the work. I have always tried to protect the credit of the | school, even at my own sacrifice. When interest became due and my salary was unpaid the interest was met and I drew on my savings which I had brought ito the school with me for my living expenses. Thus it happens that practically everything l have is wrapped up in the school debt. CONCLUSION
 "I realize more than anyone else what have been my failures. 1 know my limitations as well as you do. realize also what it has meant to struggle on without the sympathy of some that I had right to expect better things of, but in the work l have found friends all over the state. have doubtless received better than deserve and do not complain.
 There has never been time that I was not willing to get out of the way for better man, and more than once l would gladly have surrendered to anyone, if it could have been done with justice to the cause.
