CHILDREN ARE REAL POETS
Descriptions of Ordinary Things Show imaginative Fancy That Does
 Not Survive the Years.

Children are born with a taste for knowledge. They want'to know, and they want to know the right things They ask questions, and are not easily satisfied. They are fond of initiating what they see around them They are highly imaginative. They clothe their ideas in concrete forms. There was time when they were regarded as i'm mature adults; we have learned that the main aim of teacher must be to give the right tone to the feelings goodness in the abstract is of little avail; the imagination must be stirred
 We are accustomed to believe that there is little reflection on the part of children and yet one cannot but see now and again gleams of thought which suggest a hidden mental power working almost unconsciously The little girl who gathered sunlight in her hands and put it on her face" knew something of the effects of heat And how full of humor are some of the sayings of children. It was Punch, we believe, who depicted Tommy, aft CT he had been severely corrected as exclaiming: q fink I'll go back to heaven where I came from And what a fund of suggestion was con veyed by the little girl who, on hear ing running tap, said that the Wa ter was coughing,"
 The poetry of life is frequently seen in childhood. We have this illustrated in the description of butterflies as "pansies flying" "A star is a ciader from Gods great star" has a wealth of unconscious meaning. But per haps the finest approach to poetry was made by tiny tot who defined dew as the grass crying" Oh, auntie!" said the little girl, I've just seen a pencil walking" The nurse, who had grown out of fairyland, ex- plained that it was only an ordinary worm.

Can you copy out from memory the exact fig ures as they appear on the dial oi your watch? Can you copy from mem ory the exact E9Faing 2n 3 lifent the coin is facing? Can you say from memory whether the heads on a cent a nickel, a dime and a quarter all face the same way? All these are things you have seen and handled since boyhood. They should be fai more familiar to you than the alpha bet. Yet it is ten to one you cant give correct answers to one of the foregoing questions. Why cant you Try them on your friends.

Simple Portable Elevator.

The revolvator Is portable eleva- tor which is designed for use in ware houses and storehouseswhere it may be desired to stack heavy packages one above the other for the economiz- ing of space It consists of a truck which may be readily moved about the room and an upright arm sup porting platform on which the box or package Is placed Reaching the point desired, the machine and it's load may be readily swung around into the most convenient position for unloading and the burden is raised to the height necessary and the box is pushed off on top Of another sim liar box. Several men might be re- quiredto perform this task, but with this device one or two at the most are entirely sufii cient to handle the large and heavy packages.

OBSERVE MONTH OF RAMlDAN
Period That Is Considered Most Holy by the Followers of the Prophet
 Mohammed.

It Is the holy month of Ramidan in Constantinople. By reason of the declaration in the Koran that the number of the months is twelve 0unar months), as it was ordained by Al lah.' in the course of thirty-three years Ramidan makes the entire cir cult of the seasons. It was on the 18th of the holy month of Ramidan that the first chapter of the Koran was delivered to men. On that day the sultan goes to the Chamber of the Sacred Mantle" This mantle was worn by the prophet and on this day it and other relics of the prophet are brought out to public view. Other relics are banners which once hung before the tent of his favorite wife Ayesha, and the prophets beard, which is more potent in strength than the hair of Samson, and invigorates all who may touch it; tooth which Mohammed had knocked from his jaw when struck by a stone from a sling in battle, and a chunk of lime with a footprint in it made by the prophet when he sprung from it to the back of his magic steed, Al Borak, "the lightning" It was upon this animal that Mohammed visited Jerusalem and the, seven heavens from which he obtained important and exclusive information.

LOCAL LEGISLATION.

Candidate Brunddge is quite cor rect in his statement that local legis- lation is "curse to Arkansas"
 But who is responsible for this curse? Is 1t the members of the leg islature or the people?
 If our memory serves us right there were passed during the legisIa- tive session 1911 no less than 13 local acts for Faulkner county. This aver age maintained for the 75 counties would have meant 985 special acts.
 The great majority of such acts were passed because the constituents of the representatives and senators demand them. And the legislators, seeking to carry out the will of the people who elected them, strive to se- cure the enactment of such measures as are demanded To do this they must join hands with other represent. atives and senators from other coun- ties who likewise have local bills which they want to get passed.
 It thus comes about that the gener- al assembly has little or no time to consider measures of statewide i'm portance. Such bills as are passed meaning is uncertain many of them are so full of flaws and jokers that their enforcement is impossible.
 The fact that there is such a de- mand for legislation on purely local or county propositions is proof enough of its need. This need cannot be ig- nored and it will do no good to criti- else the legislature so long as that body is merely doing what it's con stituents desire Before the evil can be remedied some other means of meeting this need must be provided.
 Several years ago, in masterly outline of a proposed new constitu- ton for the state of Arkansas, Dr. A. c. Millar of Hendrix College, incor- porated in his draft provision for a county legislative body. This, it seems to us. is the solution for the curse of local bills in the general assembly.
 The county quorum or levying court is already in effect legislative body. By simply enlarging its powers prac- tically everything in the way of local legislation can be handled by this court
 The acts passed by such body would be much better expression of the will of the people, because in the state legislature, the 99 other mem- bers rarely give any attention to the local bill introduced by any member, and acts which it would have been inn possible to adopt in the county affect ed have Frequently been passed by the general assembly,
