STATE NORMAL HAS
 BIG SPELLING CLASS
CLASS OF NEARL YTWO HUN DRIED MEETS TWICE A WEEK
 IN ASSEMBLY HALL.

On Tuesdays and Thursday of each week the largest class in school, and what is believed to be the largest class in the state, recites to Miss Waldran in the assembly hall.
 Soon after the opening of school this year President Doyne submitted to Miss Waldran a list of words used by the Arkansas Inter-School Contest Association in the last state spelling contest. A grand tryout was held and students fell before those words like European soldiers before a ma chine gun. Nobody had a perfect pa per the first morning, and a very few on subsequent mornings.
 Thus it came about that the whole school was organized into a spelling class. Realizing that all teachers should know how to spell, the students were more than anxious for this op- portunity, and are all taking an &C., tive interest in the work.
 The plan is that those who show from their spelling papers that they do not need the work may be excused from taking it, but all others are re- quired to take it. This is done to fit the work to the individual as much as possible.
 No one realizes the importance of spelling any more than the teacher, still there are numbers of teachers who cannot, or do not, spell correctly. Because of the elasticity of our lan- guage and the constant coming of new words it is impossible to complete the subject of spelling, but it is pos sible, by continued study, to keep

Arkansas River Bot tom Land F.r
 Sale

l have large body of as rich land as there is in the world that win sell in small lots on long time and at . low rate of interest to poor men. I don't want to sell one man more than he can pay for, therefore, I think it would be best for no one if he is poor to buy more than 40 acres. Twenty acres of land like this, well improved, would be valuable asset for any one.
 I will sell on such terms that the land can be paid for with less annual payments than is now being paid for the rent of good land. I have just in- ished draining this land; have about all of it fenced, some of it cleared and all deadened. Any one buying it would have to bind themselves to make certain improvements each year. would only require the payment of the interest for the first four or five years.
 If you are interested, write me at Little Rock, Ark, or see MT. G. H. Thompson on the land, about ten miles southwest of Conway.

Lonoke, Oct. 24.-The State Nor mai of Conway yesterday won from Lonoke High school by the score of 8 to 0. Wilkerson, halfback for the Teachers, skirted right end for the only touchdown of the game in the second quarter. The trial at goal was missed. A safety was made in the third quarter by the high school team, which netted two points for the Normal.

1t IS said of a young man, who en- tered one of the universities of the north to do masters work in English, that he misspelled "Macaulay" in his first paper, and was sent home to do freshman work in spelling.
 There is no doubt but that spelling is being woefully neglected, and that steps should be taken by all high schools and colleges to remedy the de- fect.-Normal Echo.

To CUT
R|CHM0ND'S WEEDS

Prisoners will cut weeds on vacant
lots in Richmond.
A modern steel bridge will be con-
structed for the North Twelfth street
crossing of the river.
North Twelfth street from where ]
street intersects it from the west to
where J street intersects it from the
east will be paved.
These promises were made to men,
bers of the Richmond board of public
works when they called on the county
commissioners this forenoon
The commissioners informed the
board members that the city had as
much claim to the use of jail labor as
the rural districts of the county and
if the city would pay the expenses Of
guard, prisoners would be detailed to
cut weeds.
Building Inspector Hodgin then
called the commissioners attention to
the dilapidated and dangerous wood
en- covered bridge on North Twelfth
street. He told the commissioners
that unless they arranged to substi-
tute for it modern steel bridge he
would have to condemn the ancient
structure, which is an eyesore to the
new Morton boulevard system. The
county officials said that an appro-
priation for new bridge would be
inserted in next years budget. The
commissioners also readily agreed to
pave a small section of North Twelfth
street.

ship of the German wireless. The
chamber charges there is no interior
ence with the English and French Ca
bles by this government. Action on the
protest has not been taken.
The protest says:
To the President of the United States:
Mr.. President: The cable to Ger
many has been cut and the wireless
stations at Sayville L. !. and Tucker
ton, N. J., are under the control of
censors. On the other hand the Eng
lish and French cables are in clear OPP
Grafton and not under any censorship
whatsoever. To the best of our belief
and information instructions and news
of movements of German ships are Ca
bled from here to England and France
over the cables and then transmitted
by wireless to England and France
and Russian men of war.
At the same time, these cables are
freely used to disseminate in the
United States and from here to other
parts of the world, false rumors, re-
ports and exaggerations which infor.
nation published is against Germany
and tends to humiliate her in the eyes
of the world.
Germany is defenseless, as she is
practically without communication.
Are not these facts infringements on
the neutrality declared by the United
States and should not these cables also
be put under strict censorship? Kindly
give this matter your earliest atten-
ton.
Yours very respectfully,
Hubert ellis, President.
Heinrich Charles, Secretary.
Counsellor Won Heimhausen of the
German embassy, has stated that he
had received a copy of the protest and
later will take the matter up with the

engaged squadron of Uhlans north
of Liege and killed or captured 500 of
them.
Practically the only cessation of
fighting at Lfege occurred late yester-
day afternoon when an armistice of
two hours was arranged for both the
Belg1ans and Germans to collect their
wounded. During that time all artil-
lery fire ceased and the troops rested
on their arms.
Resume Bombardment.
At the expiration of the armistice,
the bombardment, which has been
continuous for sixty hours with the ex.
ception of brief armistice, was re.
sumed with vigor.
Authoritative announcement was
made at the war ministry today that a
large French army had entered Bel.
GUM and united with the Belgian fore.
es in the vicinity of Louvain. This
announcement was made shortly after
King Albert returned from Louvain
1t was said that the sending of the
French troops was in response to an
appeal from King Albert to President
Poincare. The King last night sent a
message to the French president
thanking him for his promptness. In
a reply received today, President Poin.

were proud to be sent to the brave
Belgian fields.

The troops descending on Liege
were increased today to $4,000 men
but part may be withdrawn and sent
into Luxembourg if the Germans are
compelled to retreat
The official announcement by the
war office that the French and Bel
gian forces have joined and begun
fighting the Germans, reads as fol
lows in part:
''For many days our little army by
tenacity and courage, rendered high
1y valuable services to the French
army, which for some days, under
forced march, has been hurrying tc
our assistance and now occupying a
portion of our territory.
Hundreds of German prisoners
have been captured. These are chief
ly cavalrymen. The spirit of the Ger
man soldiers lacks enthusiasm, and
they appear to be fighting lethargeti
cally, while their officers endeavor tc
pass themselves off as Frenchmen.'
