HENDRIX CROWDED.:
STUDENTS EARNEST
\ RECORD-BREAKING ENROLL
MENT AND FINE COLLEGE
SPIRIT PREVAILS.

The opening at Hendrix is gratifv-
ing to the friends of Hendrix college.
About 240 students are now in at
tendance. The following figures give
the total enrolment for each of the
following years: 1928, 200; 1911
II, 22o; 1901, 1T; 19O9-1O. 1856:
l9o9-0S, l57. 1t is thought that some
thirty or forty students in addition
to those here now, will enter this
year.
The spirit IN the student BODY is
excellent. They are a body of earnest
young people. Everything gives
promise of a year of serious work.
The greatest trouble that the college
authorities are having is lack of DOR
mltory room and science hall. All
rooms at the dormitory and cottages
near the campus were engaged before
the opening. There would be fiftv
more students on the campus now if
we had adequate dormitory room.
Moreover, the main building is
crowded from top to bottom. Some
relief must be afforded in the way of
dormltories and science hall.
All the professors are on duty and
are working together for the welfare
of the college and the students. There
is team work throughout the institu-
ton.
Bishop J. C. kilgo of Durham. N.
G., preached the opening sermon for
the college last Sunday. 1t was an
able sermon and was an inspiration
to the students.
Grant c. Miller, college land
scape architect of Chicago, spent two
days last week with the faculty stu
dying the campus with view to pre-
pairing general building scheme, to
determine the location of future
buildings, drives, walks and trees.
With the data he collected he will
prepare the plan. He located the
presidents home while at Conway.
and the contract for the building will
be let soon.-Correspondence in Wes-

LISTING BUILDING
and LOAN STOCKS
TAN COMMISSION FIND NEAR
LY A MILLION DOLLARS
NOT ASSESSED.

Little Rock, Sept. 26.-It has been
calculated by the Arkansas Tax Com
mission that there is total of $685.
S24 of unpledged investment building
and loan stock held by citizens of Pu-
laski county in the thirty-two associa-
tions doing business here. 1t is esti-
mated that this represents about
three-fourths of the total amount Of
such stock carried in the whole state.
Under the terms of the new law
the secretary of each building and
loan association is required to fur
nlsh the tax comission with a COM
plete list of all investment stockhold-
ers and the present value of their
stock. These lists are certified to the
assessors and boards of equaliZations
that all may be assessed as contem-
plated by the law This is the first
time this has ever been done in the
state, and it is expected that the re-
suit will be the assessment of hun
dreds of thousands of values never
before on the books.

GIN OPERATORS
NARROW ESCAPE

While at work Wednesday in his
gin three miles west of Conway. John
Whltten was caught in a line shaft,
and before he was able to free him
self he suffered the narrowing exper-
ience of having all his clothing torn
off. 1t is sa d that if it had not been
fer the fact that his clothing was old
and considerably worn, he would
have met instant death.
1t was thought one of his ribs was
broken, and DR.. J. S. Westerfield was
summoned, but after examination it
was found that he had received only
a few bruises. The shock which he
received was severe, but he is now
able to resume his work at the gin.

involving the legality of the anti-sa-
loon act passed by the legislature, in
terest throughout the state is grow

shift the burden of securing sigma
lures to petition from the prohibition
to the liquor interests, and in addi-
tion provided that none but white
adult inhabitants shall be permitted
to sign petitions for saloons license.
This means that white men and wom-
en- can sign the petitions, while ne
groes are excluded. The latter fea-
ture of the act will doubtless be at
tackled in the United States courts
later on, in the event the liquor peo-
pie lose out in the state supreme
court. 1t is claimed that the act is
unconstitutional, as it deprives the
negroes of the right to sign the peti-
tions.
The main question to be decided by
the state supreme court involves the
validity of the emergency clause
which was attached to the act when it
was introduced in the senate by Sena-
WI iNoiSS ~ vi lllS NOIlCCS utS
The emergency clause, instead of pro
viding that the act should become eff
fective at once, postponed the day un-
til December 81, this year. The liquor
interests contend that the emergency
clause is null and void because it did
not require the law to take effect at
one, and therefore, should be re-
ferled to the voters of the state un-
der the initiative and referendum
amendment to the state constitution,
inasmuch as the requisite number of
voters have petitioned for its refer

THREE things have been
brought out very clearly in
the recently concluded trial
of two young men before the
United States District Court in
California under the Mann act.
The first of them is the grow
ing tendency OF society to esti-
mate the bearings of the case in
terms of It's social reactions.
The second is the astonishing
numbers of people competently
prepared for life at every point
except the one which has to do
with the conduct of their love life.
And the third, which is the
most pressing, is the need of es-
tablishing suitable restraints and
penalties to meet similar offenses
in the future.
1t Is not alone in expressed
public opinion that the new atti-
tude toward such irregularities is
demonstrated.
In the sort Of men chosen for
the jury, in the courts ipterpre-
tation of the law, and especially
in the charge TO the jury, there
is a notable absence of the dispo-
sition of men mutually to con-
done offenses peculiar to them
selves as men.
Out in the West It is certain
that a sufficient number of citi-
zens have grown up and out of
this ancient reconsideration of
women to stamp our public rat
ing of this affair with a new NOR
al force.
ANY obloquy resting upon us as
community in which such
things can happen has been more

ly understood, to embrace an TIRE
social and personal relations and
obligations that arise out of low
ing.
One OF the first things a writer
Of fiction learns Is the extraor-
binary ignorance OF the majority
of people Of human exigencies
outside OF their own experience
For this reason alone the old
way Of leaving instruction in the
important issues of life to the
parents has not proved satisfsc-
tory. In many cases the parents
do not know how to help their
children meet crises they haven't
themselves met. They lack know
edge of social conditions and the
teaching art. For telling young
people that life is thus and so
is not always teaching them
Things like this are never really
taught until they are taken into
the working consciousness Of the
individual.
Here in America we spend great
deal on the young generations
1t behooves us as business peo-
pie to spend a little more time
and consideration to prevent them
making a f1asco of their lives, as
in the present instance. For that
is the outcome Of the whole af-
fair.
These young men. because Of
certain failure of efficiency in on
ly one department of their lives
have not only damaged the VIC
men to whom they were related
and the children they begot, bu-
they have wasted themselves. No
one vet knows what is to be tie
practical outcome of this case N
its effect upon others. --.--.-

hinder the seeing in all telescopes.
In fact, no good view of any
cosmic body can be had while 1t
is within several degrees of the
horizon. But in free space the

q. Are. astronomers paid by
the Government, and are we en-
titled to information free?
A. Astronomers only in Gov
vernment employ receive pay from
the Government Others receive
pay from the universities. But
the majority have no pay, and
are often sorely pressed to get a
living. They devote every mo-
ment from youth to death in
studying the supremely magnifi-
cent laws of the sidereal universe.
History reveals that many have
suffered in the cold for want of
sufficient clothing, since no heat
of stove can be anywhere near
a telescope. And number have

Auto Hallucination.
G. Will you please explain how
a person is lifted by four persons
placing their index fingers under
his shoulders and legs, by means
Of slight lifting force, at time of
inhaling a long breath by each
person, and by the person about
to be lifted?
A. have been asked this aues-
ton many times. If a person ac-
tually has been lifted, and those
doing the lifting think that the
law OF gravity is partially sus-
pended" then the filters are un-
der self Authorization or auto
suggestion in so far as their i'm
preston of lifting is concerned.
They actually lift far more than
they think, but they viii not adj
init thi$ as they are partially
self hallucinated in the belief
that the body of the person will
rise. And il they really succeed
In lifting the man two inches,
they think it a foot. Auto hal
lucination is a remarkable mento-
logical phenomenon and is now
being studied by mentalists here
and In Europe with minute care
and research.

than counterbalanced by the spir-
it IN which It has been met.
But. the other two items are
still to meet. The, one of them
involves a measure of prevention,
the other concerns the question
of the cure.
An extraordinary insufffciency
of the knowledge of the princi-
pies of human conduct was shown
by the parties to the case. They
knew, Of course, that what they
did was called wrong, wicked"
but they did not know it to the
degree which prevented them
from doing it, as they could have
been prevented by knowledge
from exposing themselves to
smallpox or the plague. And yet
the social consequences of such
acts are as certain and as widely
known as the consequences of in
tectlon. The knowledge which
these young people had did not
penetrate to or affect their love
life, Here society must hold it
self somewhat to blame.
There is knowledge enough In
the world as to the nature of the
sponsibilities that are tied up
with loving and the ever-reach-
ing effects of the wrong love re-
lation to safeguard all the young
people of the world If we could
only get it to them. And II is
our duty to get 1t to them. They
have a right to instruction in
the proper conduct of their love

and geometry.
