IL the June number Of "The
American City, u journal devoted
TO municipal pFoblems aud civic
Improvements, there appeared an
article from each Of the As state
civic chairmen, showing what had
been accomplished by their re.
spective states 10y Women's Climb.
The following article by Miss
Clara b. Emo, of this city, chair
man Of state ciSics, appeared in
the June number aud shows con-
clusively that the club women of
Arkansas are accomplishing as
much as those in our sister states:
The club women of Arkansas
are aronsing an interest in ciyics
aud sowing seeds that later will
bring forth results.
drinking fountains have been
erected, prizes have been award.
ed for the best-kept promises, for
flower beds and potted plants.
Court house squares and vacant
lots have been beautitied as little
parks. Clean up days have been
observed. The ladies' cemetery
associations are doing much in
keeping Gods Acre beautiful.
"The club has also placed
copies of some of the best paint.
ings in the school rooms, and has
had numerous trees plant ed
around the Fairgrounds; it also
paid for special equipment of the
manual training and domestic
science departments ofour schools
to the umount of approximately
$500.
"On Arbor Day trees were
planted, and the suggestion was
made that the pupils in our public
schools be asked to write an essay
in regard to our national forest
reserves. Civic Rally Day was
observed with mass meetings, at
which the city officials and citi-
zens discussed municipal propos,
itiOus for the civic betterment of
the towns. One club had civic
talks given at the public school.
In some towns the city councils
have invited the club women to
meet with them at stated times.
"A playground association has
been organized at Little Rock;the
Government has given two lots
at Hot Springs for Il playground,
and other towns are working
along the same lines. Civic and
health literature has been sent
out over the state, and Christmas
seals have been sold.n

Wilson, the Business Man.

Gov. Woodrow Wilson may he
a pcdagogue. He. may be theor-
etical politician, bat he is show
iug himself 10 he something
mCre.
He is showing himself to be a
business man and u good one at
that. lie has iuaugurated a new
method of campaigning. He has
organized his forces much after
the style the organizers Of a bank
elect officers aud a board of d.
gectors. He has named the eX-
ecutive chairman aud the secre-
tary of finances. The chairman
has his assistant. The vice-chair-
man will control in one section
the chairman in New York, but
all questions upon which there is
not a unanimous opinion will be
voted upon by tue board of direc.
tors.
While holding 40 Office, other
than that Of candidate, Woodrow
Wilson will supervise everything
that is dOup. In other words, he
will manage his own campaign,
assisted by the members of his
directorate aud the officers of his
committee.
If the administration, after he
is elected, is conducted with the
same systematic sureness as his
campaign the people OF the Unit
ed States will hud ample cause
for Congratulation.
1t has been said of Wilson that
once in the presidential chair,
William J Bryan will occupy the
same position in Washington
that Mark Hanna did when Nc
Kinley was president.
Mckinley was a good man, but
a weak man and easily Influenced.
1t is different with Wilson. He
also is a good man, but be is not
a weak man nor easily iuhunced.
If elected, it may well be be-
lieved that he will be president in
all that the word implies,-COm-
Appeal.

mired. With these in her hand
and the silk umbrella over her
shining black hair, the little Jap
anese maiden crept out to the doll
house of a boarding place where
French Pheyton lived.
Tia Sau crept along, the red
showing through the brown of
her skim contrasting with the
black of her hair and eyes and
making a very lovely picture. She
was dear, quaint little picture,
and the American boy, homesick,
was charmed when this child, as
he regarded her, came around the
corner of the house and asked
shyly:
rs his most honorable excell-
ency bored again."
Once he had told her he was
bored, as he was, now that work
was done and he was forced to
wait for further orders.

white teeth that Tia Sau so ad-
mired.

"Sure. Come right on" French
said gayly, "and I'll take your

81 love you, Tia Sau returned,
lifting shy eyes to his face, but he
did not heed, and SO she grew a

''What do you mean, baby?"
French asked, bending forward
and laying a gentle hand upon the
dark tresses. To his amazement
and dismay the girl caught his
hand in both of hers and laid it
against her flushed cheek. Sud-
denly the young man realized
that this was no child to be laugh
ed at, in spite of her tender years,
but a woman with an aching
heart beneath the silken kinona.
With tact rare in one of his years,
he said gently:
81 love you very much, little
Tia Sau, for you have been the
good friend to me, and made me
very happy in your beautiful land.

The Southland's Own PLAY

"The Clansman", Thos. Dixon's
great drama, has been aptly called
the Southland's own play. 1t is a
story of Southern people, for
Southern people, and was written
by Southern man 1t is the
champion of the South, having
successfully and forcibly answered
"Uncle Toms Cabin, W h i c h
favored the North. ''The Clans
man" has served far greater pur-
pose and accomplished much more
t h n the other play, however,
for it has attained success and
popularity in every part Of the
United States while Uncle Toms
Cabin has always been confined to
limited territory.
OF course this does not mean
that ''The Clansman" never met
with protest or adverse criticism,
for 1T has often encountered both
but was strong enough to surmount
these obstacles because the theme
set forth embodies truths which
cannot be debated.
"The Clansman", as is generally
known, is dramatization of Mr..
Dlxon's two most famous and
widely read books, 'The Clansman"
and The Leopard's Spots" The
drama has long since been declared
one of the greatest in the history
of the stage and it still holds the
record of being the most widely
discussed play that has ever been
produced.
The story is too firmly impressed
upon the minds If every Souther
ner to need reputation. The sin.
certify with which it tells of incl
dents in the South during the
memorable Reconstruction period
Is we'll known throughout the
whole country. The action Of the
play takes place in a little town
among the South Carolina foot
hills.
\ potent element OF "rhe Clans
man" Is the charm of the Southern
country 1t so faithfully reproduces.
II inculcstes Southern patriotism
and all OF its characters are true
