EDUCATORS IN
 ANNUAL SESSION

Louisville, Ky, Nov. 30.-With two general sessions and several hours of department work, the Southern Edu- cational Association last night con- pleted the second day of it's annual convention, which closes today when officers are elected and other routine business is concluded.
 The principal address at the gener- .al session yesterday was delivered by w. E. Halbrook of Choctaw (Van Bu- ren county), Ark, who spoke on training for cooperative and syste- matic activity in the rural schools. " He told of the difficulties in fusing the various elements that constitute ru- ral school, referring to the children as those of Squire Bell Wether,' "Mr. Rule-or- Ruin," "Mr. Modern Pharisee" and Mrs Telltale."
 "It is such material" he said, which comes into the rural school to be moulded into the factors of the community He described the con dition of inertia in the schools and said it was best overcome by the em- ployment of three methods athletic, school improvement work and literary societies While each method has it's peculiar advantage, said Mir. Hal brook, the literary societies are the most important and the most power ful.

WINTER SPORTS
 FOR CONWAY ARMORY NOW AVAILABLE o. D. LONGSTRETH SUBMITS FOLLOWING PROPOSITION
 TO CITIZENS.

Heretofore it has been customary for the schools of Conway to practic- ally close up athletics at the close of the football season, because there was no satisfactory building in which to carry on winter sports.
 Now, there is a building available and suitable in Conway for this pur- pose.
 The armory was built and planned so that it could be readily equipped for indoor athletics and basketball. and there is no reason why Conway like Jonesboro and other towns, might not have an athletics league with teams representing Go. A, the High School, Normal and Hendrix College.
 Co. A belongs to Conway and is a credit to the place, and wishes to be cooperative whenever possible.
 Thus far Co. A has asked no favors of any one, and is, therefore, under no obligations.
 After carefully considering the sit uation, the officers and men of Co. A, in the interest of all concerned, are willing to submit the following propo- sition, namely:
 That the citizens of Conway, friends of the company and of the several schools by subscription, raise sufficient funds to pay the rent which the com pany is under obligations to pay, and in addition, enough funds to pay for putting in courts, lights and bleach CTS, the armory will be made available free of charge to the Conway schools for the entire season.
 It being understood that the man agement for athletic purposes shall be in the hands of joint committee rep resenting each institution which avails itself of this offer.
 Accordingly committee composed of representative for the town, one for the company, one for Hendrix Col !ege, one for the State Normal and one for the High School will call up- on you Monday morning, December 2, to learn ho,U much you care.
 If this movement succeeds, Conway should have four first-class basketball teams and be looked upon as a real live place throughout the winter. If the money iS not raicad tho Com, pany will necessarily have to charge the schools and the town hereafter for whatever accommodations are desired
 Trusting that we can all get togeth- CT and that all may come out on top in behalf of Co. A, cheerfully sub init the above for your consideration

 Capt Co. A, First Regiment.

COL. L|TTLE'S
 BARN BURNS

The large storage barn and tool house on Col J. E. Little's river bot tom farm was totally destroyed by fire at an early hour last night. The loss is estimated at $2,500, with $1,- 200 insurance. The barn contained about 1,500 bushels of corn and all the farming implements used on the plantation. Some of the corn was saved, but so damaged by fire and water that it is almost worthless. A few of the farming tools were also saved. The origin of the fire is un- known.

Little Rock, Nox. 30.-While no def mite agreement has been reached con corning the rifle range to be main tained by the Arkansas National Guard in western Arkansas, yet it is practically certain that Fort Smith will continue to entertain the soldiers of that section annually. The owners of the present range, which is the best in the state, decline to release, but a site will probably be secured a mile further from the city. The depart ment will recommend the purchase of this site.

he said, during the last days or
Lerdo's government, rebellion be-
gan to appear in many forms, all
over the land. I issued a circular
with the object of suppressfng

But 1 shall evermore refuse.
The dentist causes pain. tits true,
But often he relieves it, too.
For when l have grHmbling

That knows no tenderness, nor
ruth
I seek the dentists office out
And have that toothache put to
rout.
Then let US praise the dentists
Nor kick about his little bill;
For were he not so great a wiz
With bridges, crowns and things,
Gee whiz!
A lot of us who now can smile,
Thus showing teeth of class and
style,
Would stink about ashamed In
stead
Without a tooth within our head,
Our beauty gone beyond recoup,
Our daily food reduced to soup!
And SO, in spite of drills and such
Which irritate us very much,
We ought to sing a happy song
To boost the dentists work

PARIS, Oct. 26.-I had to
make an appointment in advance
to see ex-President Porfiro Diaz.
who is living in this gay capital
of the French in retirement.
ALI sorts of people from all cor
ners of the world move about in
Paris-even anarchists, even pis-
tol-heeled patriots.
So I figure it that the Iron
Man of Mexico" is taking no
chances.
Whatever may happen in the
land of the Aztecs, / am quite
sure, now that l have interviewed
him, that Senior Diaz has no hope
of ever ruling there again or TAX
ing any part in it's politics. He
is 80 and although he looks
strong and hale as a healthy
American of 70 would look, he Is
beginning to feel his years.
Diaz feels that he did much for
Mexico and his experience of the
past two years has sadened him.
He does not mix at all in any
society here. His closest and in
deed his only associate and conf
dent is his beautiful wife, Car
men, many years younger than
he.
1 found the ex-president in his
comfortable but not luxurious
apartments and during the course
of our talk he permitted me to
take the accompanying photo
graph.
1 told the ex-president that I
had travelled on Madero's armed
train in the triumphal trip to
Mexico City and followed with
the question:
How could Madero have pre-
vented the growth of another
revolution "
ut requires an iron hand" said
the old man, his eyes swapping.
In all revolutions crime and law
lessness will arise to the surface,
in all forms. 1t is necessary to
correct this at its first appear
ance, as soon as a revolution is
ended, with great severity and
prompt action. If it Is not stop
ped, it blossoms and fruitens into
rebellion"
Madero, knew, had not made
any such effort.
Then Diaz told me of the ia
nous order which he gave i'm
mediately after his revolution
against Lerdo, 80 years ago.

ALL YOU NEED is A
CASCARET TONIGHT
No Sick Headache, Bilious Stomach,
Coated Tongue or Constipated
Bowels by Morning.

Turn the rascals out--the headache
the biiousness, the Indigestion, the sick
sour stomach and foul gases-turn them
out tonight and keep them out with
Cascarets.
Millions of men and women take a
Cascaret now and then and never know
the misery caused by lazy liver
clogged bowels or an upset stomach.
Don't put in another day of distress
Let Cascarets cleanse and regulate your
stomach remove the sour, undigested
and fermenting food and that misery
making gas; take the excess bile from
your liver and carry out of the system
all the decomposed waste matter and
poison in the intestines and bowels.
Then you will feel great.
A Cascaret tonight will surely
straighten you out by morning. They
work while you sleep. A l0-eent box
from any drug store means clear
head and cheerfulness for months.
Children love to take Cascarets be-
cause they taste good-never grippe or
sicken.
