Pine Bluff has about 1C0 fancy poultry breeders and one of the finest collections of birds in the country, so it is not improbable that this city will capture some o1 the valuable prizes offered.

TO ABOLISH "HAZING."

The student body of the Arkansas University at Fayetteville has decided to abolish "hazing' and their action is being most favorably commented on by the leading educators and students of the state. "Hazing" has been re- sponsible for much trouble in varl- ous schools, colleges and universities over the country in past years and Tn some instances has resulted, in fatall- ties. The sober mind of the average student is asserting itself these days and the foolishness indulged in by students in amusing themselves is last disappearing. The average student Tn the high school or college has but one purpose-to fit himself for the bat ties that confront him in later years He must devote his time to his stud ies in order to keep abreast of the progress that is expected of the stud ents in the higher educational lnsti' tutions. The university student bod! will not only im9rove conditions within the university, but they VII better themselves in many ways Whef "hazing' is entirely eliminated iron

COMMISSION GOVERNMENT.

Prof E. S. Bradford in his book en- titled Commission Government in American Cities,' prints the report of the special committee of five mem hers of the Illinois state legislature sent to investigate the workings or commission form in the three cities or Galveston, Houston and Dallas as those cities had longest been govern ed in this manner, says the foie Smith Southwest t-American. AL though the committee were originally opposed to the commission plah' yet thev are said to have summarlzed their report in the following words
 "Tn every city we visited We found the almost unanimous sentiment oi the citizens favoring the commlssloh form of government We sought the opinion of bankers, merchants, laDor- ing men-n fact, all class of cltizehs. The enthusiasm of the people for this class of government is hardly descrlo- able. Without doubt there has been marked improvement in the con- duct of affairs of these cities under this slan of municipal government. Under the stimulus of grea municipal movements, conducted in the same manner as the affairs of great pflVate enterprises, these cities are entering upon an era of great prosperity, Wlth the full confidence of their citizens m the integrity of their public officials and in the efficiency of the commls- sion form of government
 It is interesting to note that Ill 1910 the legislature of Illinois passed a law allowing for commission form in that state. In 1911 fifteen illinois cities populated from 5000 up to az'- 900. had already adopted commission form and since that time numerous other places in the same state nave made similar decision.

Would you approve of man coming into your home and eXpectorating on the carpet in your parlor? Well, the street car company is deserving of just as much consideration at the hands of the uutlic. And in enforcing the new law the city and the street railway com panv will do commendable public service. The average smoker will not smoke in street cars, especially Il there are ladies present, and those who have no respect for the ladies i'll l this regard will come under the new
 law and it is solely for thei" benefl'
 that the ordinance is put on the cit! records for enforcement.

Even here, far from the scene of hostilities, conditions lack little but the firing of barbaric gunners to make them unbearatle. The city is overcrowded with destitute refugees. 7
 Scarcely a portion of the capital has escaped injury. The sun-lit palm bedecked courts and plazas are torn and scared, rent by driss-cross of screeching, exploding shells. Hun- dreds of buildings attest by their hole marked sides and wrecked interiors to tn edestructive qualities of modern ar tillery.
 No more revolting act of barbarity can be found in the annals of war fare on the American continent than the deliberate violation of the armis- , tice by the Madero forces on Sunday md the consequences of that act When it was announced that there would be no firing for stated period the Americans and other non-cOmbat- ants came forth from their hiding places to take the air and repair their l ahodes against a resumption of the firing. At the time when most of the people were in the streets Madero at .empted to take advantage of the law to move his heavier guns to the ar
