 It iS unfortunate that we must Hatttitatt ttftAt AHt Ndttfc Ot ltft flooded streams of the middle west will make the condition in the Mis-. sissippi Valley worse this year than ever before. It may be, and while we hope no such condition will exist, 1t must be prepared for
 The last legislature killed an ap- propriation for the support of the National Guard in this state. It eer- tainly will be embarrassing to call on this Guard when help Is needed this year.
 The people of Arkansas should make a business-like efforts to fore cast the situation, to sec ahead, and to prepare as far as possible to make up for what the legislature has brushed aside i'll the matter of help when help is needed.

a special meeting on Saturday night
and voted to send $4,000 from fits
treasury to those stricken by the ter
rible floods of week ago in Ohio and
Indiana This is about the cost of the
annual banquet of the Commercial
Club, and it was unanimously agreed
that the banquet would be dispensed
with this year and the money given
to the flood sufferers.
On Sunday announcements were
made in the city churches, and since
then the DEBORAH banks have receiv-
ed private subscriptions. The United
Lutheran church raised subscrip-
ton of $4,000 on Sunday, and the
other churches have contributed ac-
cordingly, as well as private citizens

boys have gone through some hard
and persistent training during the
winter and are in fine trim. All the
members of last years champion
team are still with us, together with
some new material that has been duly
trained. Luther was not represented
in the state meet this year, for the
very good reason that there was no
meet. Too few colleges were willing
to participate in order to have such
a meet.

ished at the entertainment by the
orchestra and there will be something
doing all the time.
