A MONEY-SAVING PRIMER.
Chicago News.

Occasionally bank managedby men
of enterprise puts out booklet of very
great interest to people who don't know
the technique of banking. We wish
that more of them would do it!
One of these booklets explaining
the simplest facts about making money
and then making money make more
money has this catechism:
SLOW do people make money?
Through their labor and the products
of labor.
"How do people save money? By
spending less than they earn.
What is the secret of money max
ing? The real secret is the saving of
money, for the saving money is the
first step toward making money.
what is the essential to saving
money? Making a start, no matter
how small. Every penny saved helps
to save another.
"Is it the duty Of every one to save
money? Yes. By doing this one
need never be dependent on others
for food and clothing and in time of
sickness saved money will be great
comfort.
"Why should children save money?
Because it teaches them the. value OF
money; its care and uses.
''Why should parents save? In adj
dition to always having ready money
for emergencies, by this means the
children may be educated or later
started in business.
"What is the lesson for all! 10
save for the benefit the habit brings;
to save for the children; for business
property; for old age; for individual
comfort, and for the happiness OF de-
pendent ones"
AT the bottom nothing is more
simple than making money, saving 1t
and making the savings increase. AS
the average man and woman hears
them discussed, however, these topics
are buried in a bewildering mass OF
strange words and terms. SO | wei.
come every primer talk on money and
saving | come across.

We see them-we shall see again.
What reck we of the tempests shock!
What reck we where our anchor lock-

What matters it the spot we I'LL
On earth's green sod, when all is said
When feet and hands and heart are STILL
And all our pulses Quoted?
Wnen hate or love can kill nor thrill,
When we are done with life and dead.
So we be haunted night nor day
By any sin that we have sinned,
What matter where we dream away
The ages? In the isles OF Ind,
In Tybee, Cuba or Cathay,
Or in some world of winter wind!

Beneath the wan, white stars OF June,
And hear the southern breezes creep
Between me and the mellow moon;
But so do not wake to weep
At any night or any noon.
And so the generous gods allow
Repose and peace from evil Dreams
Il matters little where or how
Ny couch be spread; by moving stream
Or on some ancient mountains brow
Kissed by the morn's or sunsets beams
For we shall rest; the brain that Planneo'
That thought or wrought for well or Ill
At gaze like Joshua's moon shall stand'
Not working any work or will,
While eye and lip and heart and hand
Shall all be still-shall all be still!

EyESTRAIN THE CAUSE
 OF MANY HEADACHES
(Corrected with Glasses ]

Of the many causes that produce headache, eyestrain is perhaps the most common and the most important. Headaches from eyestrain are ex- tremely persistent and are productive of many Arrangements of the general system.
 Any disturbance of the relation be- tween the anatomical construction of the muscles of the eye and it's curved, transparent surfaces would cause the act of seeing to be attended by great strain, either in the organ of vision or at the center of the nerve supply. Nature does her best to remedy this strain by exerting an additional amount of muscular effort which re- suits in fullness of the blood vessels of the head This causes the brain to become irritated and dull and head ache is the natural consequence. No amount of drugging will alleviate this condition, since the cause resides in the visual organ, and unless the disturbance is corrected by properly fitted glasses the headache will con- tinue. The great strides made in the science of the practice of Optometry now enables skilled Optometrists to produce lenses with surfaces of diff ferent curvature so as to neutralize Irregularities in the transparent parts of the eye and thus permanently cause the headache to disappear by remov- ing the involuntary tension and con- sequent strain

be said, as they are so we'll known and appreciated, not only by us, but by the state as well.
 1 The new members of the faculty come to us so highly recommended, and have shown themselves such able instructors, that we know of no bet ter tribute to pay to them than to say that they already seem to be old members.
 The changes since last year are as follows: Miss Mover, supervisor of the model school; Miss Copeland, 1 teacher of piano; MT. Cordrey, asso- ciate professor of science; MT. Cook, associate professor of mathematics i; MT. McBrien, associate professor of history, and Mr. Holloway, professor of agriculture.
 Miss Ivah F. Mover, who was born in Spring City, Tenn, is a graduate of Peabody Normal College of Nash NiiiC, CiliI., ldJSl IGlclNcd flcI ID. S. degree at the University of Chica- go, after which she completed the |course in supervision and methods at Teachers College, New York. Miss Mover has had eleven years expe- rience in teaching and supervision in the best public schools and normal schools in the country.
 Miss Maria A. Copeland, born at Rectortown, Faquier county, Vir- ginia, studied. three years at Rollins College, Rollins, Va; two terms at the Peabody Conservatory of Music, Baltimore, Md, and took her peda- gogical diploma in Berlin, Germany in 1914. Prior to graduation she taught four years, two in Virginia, and two in the Carolinas. She re- | signed an excellent position in North Carolina to come to the Arkansas State Normal.
 MT. Dean D. McBrien was born in 1 Tecumseh, Johnson county, Nebras- ka, and has lived successively at Or leans, Geneva, Lincoln, and Harvard Nebraska. Mr McBrien was gradu- ated from the Lincoln (Neb) High School in 1909, and received his A. B. degree from the University of Ne braka in 1914, where he specialized in European history, mathematics, and English. Prior to graduation, MT. McBrien taught civics one year in Temple High School of Lincoln. Neb,; and was one year principal of Phillips, Neb., High School.

Teacher Returns
 from Europe
MISS WALDRAN RELATES EX- PERIENCES OF SUMMER
 TRAVELS ABROAD.

Perhaps no member of the faculty had more pleasant and profitable expe- riences during the past summer than Miss Waldran. Perhaps none had eX- pcriences more varied or interesting. When she was interviewed for this article, her story sounded almost like real novel.
 One very unique feature of the tour was that she was one of a con- pany of thirteen and all returned safely without mishap of any kind. Ill-luck was avoided, however, by call ing it a company of twelve with a conductor" thus getting around the inevitable fate in store for them, had they gone as a company of thirteen.
 The party sailed from Boston the first of June, and after crossing the Atlantic, spent the time until the 18th Iof July in a continental tour, after which they came to London and thence to Cambridge, where the re- mainder of the summer was spent in study at the University. Miss Wal dran sailed for home September and reached Conway on the day school be- gan.
 Not infrequently since her return interested groups of both students and teachers have gathered round and insisted that she tell them of her many experiences, and especially about the mobilizing of the English soldiers, but she always frowns when the war is mentioned. She likes to tell of the places of interest she visit ed, rather than of the sordid things of war. One must listen with rapt attention when she tells of Venice, Florence, Pompeii and Rome, of the beautiful art galleries and cathedrals, and of the Vatican and Pope Plus, whom she visited shortly before his death Her description of the Eiger Glacier and the Jung Frau Mountain in Switzerland is very fascinating, to- ,gether with that of the Lion of Lu- cerne, and the story of the snowball fight on the mountain and the straw berry luncheon in the valley on the same day. Then, too, the trip up the Rhine to visit the cathedral at Cologne, the day at Heidelberg, the trip through Belgium and Holland to Amsterdam, and the week spent in Paris, are all fraught with interest.
 Then if you insist, she will tell you how, at Cambridge, the thousand stu dents who were there for the summer, elbowed their way through the many thousand soldiers, and wrote their themes to the beat of the drum; how Trinity College, the largest and most heavily endowed college in the world, was converted into a hospital; how the lady students of the University visited the Red Cross headquarters each day and sewed for the soldiers, and many other things that will open your eyes in regard to conditions in England.
 Miss Waldran brought home with her an interesting collection of post cards and lantern slides which she means to use in her English work. With these helps, together with the intimate knowledge she gained of the great English writers, by visiting their birthplaces and tombs, she will be enabled to make English literature a pleasure indeed.
 She promises us a paper soon on University Life in Cambridge" to which we are looking forward with much pleasant anticipation.-Normal Echo.
