To THE EDITOR OF CHRONICLE
For the benefit of the public, would
like to say as a fisherman, the bill before
the Legislature in regard to the kind OF
seines that we must use. is not only going
to stop our summer fishing. hut will stop
the public from enjoying the fine sum
mer trout that we have been enjoying for
SO many years until the last of Septem-
Der. This law allows the use of theinch
mesh seine in the spring when the trout
come in in large schools to spawn. and
are caught in greater quantities than can
be disposed Of, and thousands of them
rot on the beach and do no one any good
and don't even get the chance to spawn
This, | say, is wrong, and should be
stopped. After these fish spawn they
leave our shores in June, and only a few
are caught in gill seines, and the people
here know they are fine in size and taste.
Ana we use the inch and one-eighth
mesh to catch them in. Now if we are
obliged to use three inch mesh, that
Will mean no summer fishing here, and |
the people will have to depend on the |
hsh shipped here on ice by some corpor-
alton, who can use any size mesh seine |
hey choose for their pounds, and take
our market for their own use.
Some fellow doing lobby work at Dover,

oncerned all right; but what do YOU

How Wife Can Please Hubby.

The wise woman is she who keeps neat and trim in dress, dainty in per son, and alert and poised in mind, that in so doing she may favorably stand comparison with the business women with whom her husband comes in con tact
 Most men, even these well past mid ele age, place high value upon exter- nals. and the woman who assumes that she can hold a mans love indefi- nitely, regardless of her personal ap- pearance, is. to my mind, making grave mistake.
 More than one wife, serene in the knowledge of her husbands S loyalty, fails to realize that that same loyalty Is due more to the mans sense of duty and conscientious self-control than to the fact that his wife possesses the qualities which actually hold him true to her in spirit as well as in deed.-T Womans Home Companion

Second Albino Snake Found.

What is reported to be the second albino snake ever found, and the first ever caught alive and watched careful ly for purposes of scientific study as to characteristics and habits, was given to Professor Storer of the department of vertebrae zoology, by a farmer who found it in the country near Berkeley. Cal. The snake is about the size of the ordinary gopher snake, but IS marked by the entire absence of color This peculiar reptile, which has sort of fieshy hue with a bit of pinktish tinge, is being closely watched by the members of the class who frequent the museume of veterbrate zoology for any developments of unusual charac- teristics. 4

Meetings are held regularly at the Public Library on the second ana fourth Tuesday nights of each month Unless an approved play be presented at the local theater that night
 The purpose of the Drama League is to stimulate desire for better drama and to furnish the support for some thing better than the mass of today's stage productions. most of which at best are without educational value and some of which are unquestionably bad in moral effect.
 The Drama League makes no war on what it considers worthless, or worse only as an educational influence works to demand always better things.
 That the Drama League is making it's influence felt is already noticeable in the increased attendance at the Letter plays where its Centers work. Also the increasing output of dramatic books by leading publishers speaks for the study being done. As an edu- cational organization nothing can he better than the Leagues for the study of drama As means of pleasure for those who wish to do amateur work, the Drama League is here Member ship is one dollar year and it is greatly desired that membership of one hundred be secured before the na- tjonal meeting in Detroit in April.
 Those interested in either the study work or amateur theatrical effect are invited to join the League and help the good work.

With the Drama League

The Drama League of America, which was recently organized in Ar kansas with Mrs M. j. Bensberg as president, has center composed of Little Rock and Pulaski Heights mem Lers which has thus far proven itself one of the livfsst organizations in the city Especially is this true of the Study Class.
 Three of 1bsen's dramas have been taken up, "The Doll House" Ghosts, = and "Hedda Gabler." In each of these three the vital moral problems in volved were freely discussed as well as the art of the dramtist and the technique of his work ,s
 At the last meeting that powerful one-act drama, War Brides was the subject of discussion which was led in masterful and convincing manner also gave most valuable address.
 The dramas to be studied the re- mainder of the current year have been selected to present a study of the work of different national dramatists. The great Irish play Riders of the Sea-" by Synge, a production said to be the most perfect since the Greek drama, will be the subject at the neyt meeting to he held in the Public Li- Lrary April II.
 Following this will be Man and Su- perman," by Shaw; sThe Pigeon,' by Galesworthy: Mona vanna.' by Mae terlink, and "The Weavers," by Haupf- man.

Nervous Energy.

In every individual at a given time, there is 8, limited amount of potential energy stored up in the cells of the brain. This function seems to rest in the chronatin granules of the nerve cells, and it has been shown repeat edly that a liberation of nervous en. ergy, whether in response to a psychic or sensory stimulus, results in a phy- siological degeneration of the chro- matin granules, and consequently the cells themselves. Obviously, a pro- longed discharge of nervous energy diminishes by so much the amount left in the brain cells. Furthermore, stinl. uli of sufficient number, intensity or duration may cause exhaustion and death.

SPARE THE TREES AND FLOWERS

In our eagerness to clean up the Heights, a movement that cannot be too highly commended, we are likely to lose sight of the value that beauty ol landscape gives to our community. The cutting out of all the small pines seems hardly necessary and unless care is used in the burning of the many brush piles, scattered over the cleaned-up districts, the violets and spring flowers are in danger of being ing the splendid cleanup work heed this appeal in behalf of the trees and flowers?

Little Rock real estate men say that they could rent dozens of farms every day if they had them, the tendency of the many unemployed men being to get back to the farm. It is one of the encouraging changes resulting from the European war. It is beginning to look like there would be revival in agriculture so long neglected as field of profitable occupation. Men are be- ginning to realize that our trouble has been an over-filled city and under. filed country.
