This new play by Edward Sheldon,
author of Mrs. Fishes former success,
Salvation Nell" is described as the
story, the whole story of u woman. II
deals not with one episode, but with
a number Of the most striking in her
life. 1t is a story of a mind and OF
moral nature that found themselves,
of the worlds beauties and Injuries
first embraced and then rejected, of a
career of seif-abnegation and public
veal. of a constant spiritual growth
and a final hosannah of triumph. Al
least such has been the authors pur-
pose. in which he Is understood Ia
have succeeded and at the same time
to have written a play Of Auch
strength ana interest,
insofar as the gifts of Mrs. Fiske
are concerned. the play unquestion-
ably calls for their exercise in q re-
markable degree.
Mr., Sheldon is generally credited
with having written by far the best
play that has yet come from his pen,
one which in its externals Is very
much of the moment, and one which
in its basic theme is significant con-
tribution to one of the most import
ant channels of present day psyche
logical thought.
Mrs. Fishes personal triumph in the
play has been complete.

 One of the brightest literary lights of the age, Robert Louis Stevenson, died of tuberculosis. Through all the coming ages his pathetic exile from his friends, his courageous struggle against pain, his tenderness and sympa- thy with all suffering is sum- med up in his beautiful prayer which concludes with this phrase "Whatever good l can do for anybody let me do it now" " It is for such as he and the many, many martyrs to this great destroyer that the answer to the thought is so perfectly expressed through the Red Cross Seal.

Chancery Court Ends.

Heber Springs, Dec. 21.-Judge George T. Humphries, chancel- Tor of the Eighth district, Fri day adjourned the winter term of chancery court for Cleburne county after a session of four days. Many unimportant cases were tried and 15 divorces grant ted. This term of court was the last to be held this year in the 10 counties of the Eighth dis trict.
 Judge Humphries returned last night to his home at Salem, where he will spend the holidays before starting on his campaign for congress from the Second district. He will be opposed by Judge Eugene Lankford of De- Vall's Bluff and w. A. Oldfield.
 Judge Humphries probably has granted more divorces than any other judge in Arkansas. Dur ing the past II years he has granted 3,342 divorces. A ma jority of these were granted to negroes in the counties of his district that have a large negro population

University Bans Tango.

Fayetteville, Dec. 21.-No lor- ger may the students of the Uni versity of Arkansa., dance in un- restrained liberty. The "powers that be" have ruled differently. The ban has been put on the tan- go.
 While the new dances have been practiced in careful moder- ation under the strictest super vision, the slight variations of the so-called tango have edged their way into the university dance hall. Protest was raised, not on what had been done, but what might develop. As a re- suit the Senate, the governing body of the university, today passed a resolution which will prohibit any semblance of the new dances. This action was hastened by a ministerial com- mittee which conferred with the Senate yesterday afternoon.
 "The action of the Senate is not meant as a rebuke to the students" said President Fut- rall, "but is taken as precau- tionary step. The tango has not been allowed in the unver- sity at all, but for fear that it might creep in, the Senate wish ed to be put on record against it and warn the students against it."

State Agent W. S. Fits Makes State
ment Concerning the Auburn.

W. S. Fits, who has the agency for
the state of Oregon for Auburn cars,
gives the following statement from
the manufacturers, the Auburn Auto
mobile company, of Auburn, Indiana;
when we commenced the manufac-
ture of automobiles ~ years ago, we
had behind us an experience of 80
years successful carriage building. 1t
has been our ambition to build line
so complete that progressive dealers
could not afford to overlook our
proposition. In this day Of moderate
priced cars, four out of five pros
pective customers are looking for a
car ranging in price from $3.50 to
$4,000, The Auburn dealer who han
dies the complete line, has car
which fits every buyers requirements
in service, price and appearance, He
is limited in sales only by the num-
ber Of people in his territory He can
sell the great many rather than the
limited few. The Auburn cars are
adapted for all classes, from the
business mans runabout to the large
touring car.
"Our policy has been to build cars
that will compare favorably in roomy
luxurious appointments, endurance,
speed and appearance with the high
est-priced American cars, We came
to the conclusion years ago that no
manufacturer could long endure un-
less he gave not only honest value,
but utmost value. We could market
our product at a greater profit to
ourselves by shaving and pairing, but
no motorists will buy a poor car
twice. Our policy Is primarily not to
achieve the dollar, but to confer u
benefit We want TO impress every
owner and every prospective buyer
that when he buys an AUBURN he
will not have wasted his money. Our
1918 models have established a stand
ard of motor car value which has not
been surpassed by any manufacturer
thus far

This Palge "3Go

Is the most remarkable car ever

at anywhere near the Paige price.
This car is absolutely the biggest
buy on the market today. No greater
sensation has ever been created in the
automobile industry in years, Even
our competitors say that we cannot
sell the Paige "36" with all these fea-
lures at $1iOO without losing money
on every car.
That, Of course, is our own problem
But it would be ridiculous for us to
offer this car at that price If we had
to lose money on It. Let us say then
that we are not losing money on this
car, although we are not making as
much profit per car as some manufac-
turers make Furthermore, the
Paige has reputation for quality that
is worldwide and which was attained
only by extreme attention to details
Of design and materials. This reputa-
tion must not only be sustained--it
must he still further strengthened
