URGES ATTENDANCE
 AT NORMAL SCHOOL STATE EDUCATION DEPT.
ISSUES CIRCULAR CALLING AT TENTION TO CONWAY INSTI-
 TUTION'S ADVANTAGE.
From Thursdays Daily.

From Thursdays Daily.
 The state department of education has just issued the following circular for publication in the press of the state, regarding the Arkansas State Normal School:
 Since the opening of this institu- ton five years ago, over 1,5OO stu dents have been enrolled there. Many of them are now teaching in our state, and their influence is being recognized in the improvement of our schools. Directors are beginning to appreciate the value of the trained teacher, and no other kind can now find employ ment in our city schools. Why should not the same protection be given the pupils of the town and rural schools?
 Arkansas was slow to provide for the training of her teachers; other states have for years supported by liberal appropriations schools for this purpose: Missouri, for example, has seven, for which last year over S625, 900 was appropriated. Now that our state is doing her part in this matter, certainly she has right to expect that those who seek positions in her schools shall take advantage of the opportunity afforded to prepare to do the work intelligently.
 Each county examiner is authoriz- ed by law to issue scholarships to those who may wish to enter the Nor maj School; the tuition is free; good accommodation have been provided the buildings are we'll equipped; the instruction is thorough; the expenses are reasonable; certainly, then, our teachers should avail themselves of the advantages offered.
 Some teachers of our county have attended the State Normal School, and they are it's strongest advocates. There are among us, however, many whose work in the schoolroom could be much improved. Will directors much longer employ incompetents, if efficient teachers can be secured?

It is understood that Representative George M. Cornell of Naylor will probably be in the race for second term, but has not yet definitely decid- ed to run.

SUSTAINS"HFALIH
 COMMISSIONER
IN VACCINATION BORDER
ATTORNEY GENERAL MOOSE ADVISES CONWAY SCHOOL
 BOARD.

In response to an inquiry from the Conway school board, Attorney Gen. eral w. l.. Moose has upheld the State Board of Health in the promulgation of the rule recently announced requir- ing all school teachers, children and employees to be vaccinated. This rule was formulated under the following section of an act by the last legisla- ture: Af1
 Power is hereSy conferred upon the Arkansas State Board of Health to make all necessary and reasonable rules and regulations of general na- ture for the protection of the public health, and for the general ameeliora- tion of the sanitary and hygienic con ditions within the state, for the sup pression and prevention of infectious, contagious and communicable diseas- es, and for the proper enforcement of quarantine, isolation and control of such diseases"
 Attorney General Moose says: Ut is my opinion that it is the duty of the directors of the public schools and all other schools of the state, to assist the State Board of Health in the en- forcement of this rule. The State Board of Health has abundant author ity, under the provision of the statute, to promulgate this rule, and our su- preme court, in case of Auten vs. School Board of Little Rock, has ap- proved similar rule promulgated by the Board of Health of Little Rock. The court says:
 The question whether the public health justifies this. regulation was a matter for the school board, and the board of health and city authorities to decide. It was matter left to their discretion. The responsibility and duty of deciding this matter being placed upon them, the courts have no right to interfere and control their discretion, unless it is clearly shown that the regulation was unreasonable and unnecessary <"
 In conclusion, Judge Moose says: "This decision was made prior to the State Board of Health act, and before specific authority was given by law for the promulgation of such rule. The present State Board of Health was specifically authorized by the act of 1913 to make this rule, and there is no doubt in my mind that the courts will sustain the State Board of Health and the directors of schools in their efforts to enforce the same in the let ter and spirit"

.h the Southwestern company IS
 rating in Conway places no limit
 ,on the rates. Others hold the opin-
 1n that the courts have the right to fix a reasonable charge for telephone service, and that this function has been favorably passed upon in the supreme court. Whether by ordi nance or by proceedings in the courts, it sems reasonably certain that strong effort will be made to prevent the increased rates from being put into effect next Monday.
 Referring to the matter one of the aldermen said to the Log Cabin Dem- ocrat today that he would be glad to get an expression from the subscribe CTS as to whether they desired the councils to take the initiative. in the effort to prevent the increased rates. q believe those who signed the pc tition agreeing to an increased rate thought of it from only an individ- ual standpoint, that 30 cents per month extra is but a small matter. But from the standpoint of the whole city 50 cents per month additional on over 400 phones would mean taking an extra $2,400 per year out of Con- way. This represents the income at 8 per cent on $30,000 and is matter large enough to command the atten- ton of the council.'
 Shortly after purchasing the local system at a cost of $25,0O0 the tele- phone company circulated petitions to their subscribers promising upon their bart to rebuild the entire system and put in on a metallic circuit, at cost of $15,O0O, provided that they were permitted to increase the rates on res- dence phones from $1.50 to $2.00 per month and on business phones from s2.O0 to $2.75. The lines having been entirely rebuilt, but there are still many complaints of DOT service, and he company announced about 10 days ago that the higher rates will be put nto effect on Sept. 1. Representa- tives of the company declare that only, about dozen phones were lost ,y the raise and that this number was made up in new phones, but this IS denied by those contesting the raise, who declare that large proportion of the subscribers have refused to sign contracts and that many who signed did so under protest.
 The franchise of the Southwestern company is not an exclusive one, and 1t is said that if no relief can be ob- | .ained through the council or courts against the increased rates, local company will be formed and install an exchange. This was done at Clarksville, it is stated, and "cen- ,ral energy" system, similar to that lsed in the larger cities, has been ln- stalled, giving subscribers service at s1.5O per month.

SUBSCRIPTION CONTESTS
UNFAIR TO ADvERTl8ER4
SAYS FARGO BUSINESS man

A Fargo business man in an
interview with a paper in that
city, said that he regards news
paper contests as a menace to a
business man in more ways than
one, and in the course of the con-
versation said:
First, because every retail
merchant is approached by doz-
ems of his customers 10 whom ne
can not give his o.. suI.s.rlD-
ton and is often pressed to q
point where it becomes Disagree
able to him.
Second, because the circula-
ton of a newspaper attained by
these contests are not the desir-
able kind, as the greater percent
age of the new subscribers are
subscriptions which were given to
contestants by friends and not
the kind of subscribers that read
the paper because they really
wanted the paper in their home,
and therefor advertising rates
based on those subscriptions ara
not fair to the advertiser.
''The last contest in on. city
left a dark brown taste in every
body's mouth and should have
been fair warning to people who
are trying to get something for
nothing"
