NEW LAWS VIOLATED BY
 MANY IN IGNORANCE.
The Intelligent and Well-Mean- ng Citizens Can Not Keep Up With Legislative Activity
 In Arkansas

by the last legislature. All of these laws carry penalties more or less severe. In this place scores, perhaps, of laws are be- ing violated by well-meaning and intelligent people through very ignorance. This seems like la paradox, but it isn't. Intelli- gence doesn't necessarily mean sleeping with a digest of the statutes under ones head. Laws are enacted and the public knows little or nothing about them.
 The violator may be an indi- vidual, a firm or corporation. The penalty may be great or small. The odium of law viola tion clings to the violator, no matter how innocent may have been the motive for the infrac- tion of an unfamiliar statute. The infexible rule of the court is, Ignorance of law excuses no one"
 A prominent man Of affairs, a Little Rock banker, estimates that business interests of the state are caused losses each year running into thousands of c lars through unintentional in fraction of new laws.
 A SENSELESS CONDITION.
 The explanation of this de- plorable and unreasonable con- dition is that there is no practi- cal and adequate method of tell ing the public what the law is. Five thousand copies of the acts of the legislature are printed some months after the legisla- ture adjourns. These books are supposed to inform 275,OO0 peo- pie. How many of the 5000 copies of the acts referred to will be read through from cover to cover and thus serve to in- form the recipient of all the new acts of the legislature? Let the reader estimate.
 Act No. 3 will remedy this con- dition. A competent attorney today explains section two of Act No. 3, the Publicity Act, for readers of the Independent. A thorough. exposition of the measure will be found in these columns, section by section, each day. He says:
 SECTION ?.
 Section 2 provides that after ninety, days, from the final ad- journment of the General As sembly a synopsis, to be prepar- ed by the attorney general, of all general acts except those upon which the referendum has been invoked, to be published for ten days. It is a well-known fact that it is a long time after the General Assembly adjourns before the acts are published.
 The acts of 1913 make a vol ume of 1884 pages. By far the larger proportion of these acts are special and are of no partic- ular interest ercept to those of the locality to which they apply, but the few general acts are of interest to all of the people of the state and they should not be required to wait an indefinite length of time after the acts become laws to learn what they are.
 THE LAWS BOILED DOWN.
 The courts hold that people are presumed to know the law. Ig-

COUNCILMEN See need
OF SOCIAL Secretary

Need of a social secretary by City
Council was discussed at the session
of that body last evening, and while
nothing definite was done, the mem-
bers enjoyed a laugh at the expense
of President w. p. White, who had
ATTENDED the banquet at Delaware
College late in the afternoon. At the
close of the session, Councilman
Stover jocularly said that Council had
been delayed for half an hour owing
to the absence of President White,
and the members apparently had no
leader. He suggested that here
after all members be on time, and If
il was necessary for Council to be
represented at social functions, II
should have a social secretary.
Are you joking" asked Mr. White,

I'd, D-2, going north at high rate OF
speed was partly derailed and wrecked,
after the train had left Wyoming sta

fourteen cars along both north and

Fortunately no one was hurt in the
wreck, as the crew were divided, some

YOU CAN'T BRUSH OR
Wash OUT DANDRUFF
The Simplest and Quickest Way Is
To Dissolve u.

The only sure way to get rid OF
dandruff is to dissolve 1t. then you de-
stroy it entirely. To do this get about
four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon,
apply it at night when retiring; use
enough TO moisten the scalp and rub
II in gently with the finger tips.
DO this tonight. and by morning
most if not all of you dandruff will
be gone. and three or four more ap-
plications will completely dissolve
and entirely destroy. every single sign
and trace OF it. no matter how much
dandruff you may have.
You will find, too. that all itchins
and digging of the scalp will stop al
once. and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous. glossy. silky and soft. and
look and feel a hundred times better.
If you want 10 preserve your hair.
do by all means get rid of dandruff. for
nothing destroys the hair more quick
ly. II not only starves the hair and
makes it fall out. but it makes IL
stringy, straggly. dull. dry brittle and
Iifeless. and everyone notices IL. You
can get liquid arvon at any drug store.
II Is inexpensive and never fails to do
the work.
