rate reaches Is or 16 per thousand
annually a city is condemned as
failing to take care Of it's popula-
ton.
Sanitation, the purifying of
water supplies, sewering and i'm
proved environment, make it pos
sible for those who under former
conditions died, to live. We have
now a whole system of factory leg
islation. We have learned that the
real asset of civilization is in it's
childhood. The savage failed in
his duty to recognize this import
ant fact, neither did he strive to
keep alive the unfit. These chang
ed conditions have created the great
problems Of humanity. They have
developed the startling problem Of
a large proportion Of our popula-
ton so low in intelligence as to be
unable to take care Of themselves.
This feeble minded population is in
creasing at rate twice as rapid as
that Of the normal population.
DR.. Lichtenberger used as an IL
lustration the figures 10000, 900
representing the normal popula
ton, and 100000 the feeble minded
and asked the question, eff the lat
ter grows at twice the rate of the
former how long before the smaller
will equal the larger?' England
has reckoned that the feeble mind
ed population, if unchecked, will in
three centuries equal the normal
population of that country.
DR.. Lichtenberger believes that,
as our knowledge increases, our
Epenal institutions will be replaced
by institutions for the care of the
feeble-minded. Investigation has
shown that 25 to 40 per cent of the
,, inmates of our prisons have minds
equal to those of little children. In
deed a feeble-minded person may be
defined as on whose mentality stops
dveloping long before the body has
grown. Out Of 100 cases Of boys
committed to the Junvenile Court
Of New Jersey, 26 per cent were
feeble-minded. In Massachusetts,
the test was made in the case of SO
girls who had broken parole. 50

Modern Science
OF Eugenics
Institutions For Feeble-Mind-
ed Ultimately To Replace
Penal System

Distinctions, sharp and defined,
between the true science Of eugen-
les and the ridiculous and disgust
ing exploitation of the subject as
given by many Sunday newspap-
ers and sensational magazines, fea-
tured the lecture given on the sub
ject in the Oratory last Friday ev-
ening. DR.. Lichtenberger, we'll
known sociologist Of the University
Of Pennsylvania, held the large
audience for over an hour, to SER
ious consideration of the subject
and marked himself as foremost
among the educators who have ap-
peared in the series since their be-
ginning three years ago. The
speaker clinched statement after
statement with scientific fact which
made the discussion most forceful
one.
The subject was treated under
three heads: l. The Creation of the
Problem: the thing which has fore
ed upon the people that which we
call the Science of Eugenics. DR..
Lichtenberger declared it to be the
product Of the development of civ
ilization. He defined eugenics as
:" the facts and conditions in society
under public control that may in
jure, impair or improve society"
BY the development of civilization
the speaker referred to progression
through the tribal and feudal per-
oids, to the civil society of the pre-
sent day. The organization Of civ
ilization is now based upon the peo-
pie as individuals. The period of
social service and reform dates back
to only one hundred years ago. One
hundred and fifty years ago the
deathrate averaged so to 100 per
thousand annually. Now if the

complete the survey of the state in
three years.
This campaign for the extermina-
tion of the hook-worm is being con-
Quoted in eleven Southern states. 1t
is tropical and semi-tropical disease
and is not found in the North. John
d. Rockefeller originally set apart
one million dollars for the work, but
this has been augmented, and is now
under the Rockefeller Foundation, of
which Wickliffe Rose is Executive
Secretary.

SALOONS OF ARKANSAS
CLOSE AT MIDNIGHT
Including IL in Little Rock and 10 in
Argenta Will be Closed 10 Days.
Impossible to Legally Pur-
chase Whiskey in State

Little Rock, Dec. 31.-At midnight
tonight every saloon in the state in
cluding II in Little Rock and 10 in
Argenta, will be closed, and for the
next ten days at least it will not be
possible to purchase legally any intox-
icants in the state of Arkansas. For
the first time in its history absolute
state wide prohibition will be in eff
feet.
In the meantime petition for the
issuance of liquor licenses will be pub
lished in the various cities where the
fight for license is to be made, and the
saloon and prohibition forces will
carry the fight to the county judges
who are the final arbitors under the
law
Attorney General Moose rules that
the petitions, to be legal, must be pub
lished as required by the act, after the
act becomes effective, Jan. /, and that
publications prior to that time, as was
done at Fort Smith, are not a compli-
ance with the law. He also holds
that if it can be shown that any per-
sons whose names appear on the pc
tition, are not residents of the COM
munity after Jan. /, their signatures
are not valid, and should be removed.
1t is within the law for the petitions
to be circulated prior to Jan. /, for
they do not become valid instru-
ment until they are properly filed
with the county court.

COUNTY ROAD CONVEN-
TION IN SESSION

While the attendance is not what
it should have been there is an unu-
sual amount of enthusiasm manifes-
ed at the County Road Convention
which convened at the court house
yesterday afternoon.
Speeches were made by Messrs. Nc
Kenzie. Handy. McRae, Bailey and
others and all of them said good
things about better roads.
The good roads movement was thor
oughly launched in this county sever
al months ago when traction engine
gravel wagons and scrapers were
purchased and it started with such
force that it will be almost impossible
to stop it.
1t is the purpose of this convention
to organize a permanent county road
association. When this is done road
improvement districts will be organi-
zed and our county will be second to
none in highways.

Chatterer Works Hard.

When Chatterer the Red Squirrel had
left the Green Forest because OF his
| terrible fear OF Shadow the Weasel he
had been fat At least he had been fat
for him. All through the pleasant fall.
while he had been gathering his sup
ply OF nuts and seeds TO store away for
the winter. he had eaten all he could
hold and had filled his red coat out un-
til 1t actually felt too tight. But now
that same red coat hung so loose on
Chatterer that IL looked too big for
him. Yes. sir. Chatterer had grown 90
thin that his coat actually looked too
big for him. And he was growing
thinner every day.
You see. most Of the food had been
collected and stored away long ago,
and Chatterer had to run about a great
deal and hunt very hard to find enough
to eat by day. while as for filling a new
| storehouse, that seemed impossible
Still Chatterer kept trying, and day by
day he managed to add a little to the
supply OF seeds. But it was pretty poor
fare at best. There were no plump nuts
or tasty pine seeds such as filled his
storehouse in the Green Forest. because
no nut or pine trees grew near the
Old Orchard, and Chatterer didn't dare
go back to the Green Forest for fear
that Shadow the Weasel would find him
| and track him to his new home. So he
patiently did his best to find food close
at hand. But IL was discouraging. ter
ribly discouraging to work from sunup
| TO sundown. running here. running
there. running everywhere. until he was
SO tired he was ready TO drop. and
knowing all the time that the snow
might come any day and bury what lit
| tie food there was. Oh those were ha I'd
days for Chatterer the Red Squirrel
very hard days. indeed,
| One morning he started very early
and made a long journey by way OF the
old stone wall and the rail fences down
| to Farmer Browns cornfield OF course.
Farmer Brown had long ago taken
away the corn. but in doing IL a great
many grains had been scattered about
on the ground. half buried In the
ground where they had been trodden
on, hidden under leaves and among
| weeds and under the piles of stalks
from which the ears had been strip
ped. For the first time for days Chat
terer felt something like cheer in his
heart as he scurried about hunting for
and finding the plump yellow grains.
First he ate all he could hold. for he
| saw that then there would be plenty
to take home Then he stuffed his
cheeks FULL scrambled up on the rail
the Old Orchard.
| TT is a terrible long way to have to
carry all my supplies" thought he as
he sat UP on the top of a post to rest
In certainly can't If sit here all day"
With that he jumped down to the rail
below him. He was half way across
when he noticed crack in IL. IL
looked to him as if that rail was hol-
low part way. A great idea come to
him. His eyes grew bright with ex-
citement. He ran the length OF the rail
and back again. looking for an opening.
