Young
 Will Retire Tomorrow

Little Rock, Dec. 30-Dr. Frank B. Young will retire tomorrow as Super intendent of the State Hospital for Neverous Diseases, and will be sue ceeded by Dr. E.P. Bledsoe of Little Rock.
 With reference to published state ments that try to make it appear that the recent discharge of number of employees at the institution was due to political influence, T. J. Raney, of the Board of Control, says: Politics has nothing whatever to do with it. Some good reason can be given for the discharge of each individual. In the first place, the Board has discharged no one, we have only recommended and Dr. Young has discharged The same policy will be continued with Dr.. Bledsoe Our first consideration is al- ways for the good of the institution, efficiency of service, loyalty to the state, kindness to the patients"

TRADE IN PRESCOTT
ENLIGHTENED PRACTICE.

The remarkable change in the at titude of the medical profession to- ward the use of alcohol in the treat ment of disease is shown by the rec ords of the Cincinnati hospital, an in stitution among the greatest of it's class in the world and located in one of the whisky centers of the United States For the year 1914 only seven pints of intoxicants were used for its patients for the entire twelve months, while during six months of 1898, al- though the capacity of the hospital was considerably less, the records show the use of more than seventeen hundred pints of whisky, beer, wine and gin.

ll5th Repor of
 the Supreme Court

Little Rock, Dec 30-The 115th Sup reme Court Report is out. An eViu- ence of the great amount of work be- ing done by the court is the fact that r ports are issued at the rate of ele- ven volumes every two years, and yet the present volume brings it up only to Dec. n, 1914. In the four years from 1s9s.t to 1896. only five volumes were required to contain all the q

SUMMER TIME VACATIONS
ABOLISHED AS RESULT OF
AUTOMOBILE TRADE GROWTH

the services of the most experienced
statesmen are needed.
This meant that some of our en-
ployes took their vacations for 1915
last January Others went in Feb
ruary, March, April and May. Thus
far / have not heard of a single kick
and every employe seems to be salts
fed with the change. There are 100
employees in the Newark office, of
this number twenty-five being wom-
en-. In the arranging of vacation
schedule we give a preference to the
oldest employees. There is absolute
ly no favoritism. We considered
that perhaps May and october are
probably the most desirable of the
eight remaining months of the year
in which to take a vacation. This
being the case the oldest of our en-
ployes are allowed to choose vaca-
tion period in either month. Those
who have been with us shorter
length of time are allowed to go in
November December, or at some
other time.
Every employe who has been with
us for n reasonable length of time
is granted vacation of two weeks
with pay, and the vacation period
extends over the entire year with
the exception of the four months
when we ask our employees to remain
at their desks, until every employe
has had a vacation before the close
of a given year.
I'VE are not exactly the origina-
tors of the new vacation idea, as
understand some other large con-
Germs give vacations in the winter
months"
LAS this is the first year we have
tried the plan we are much interest
ed In determining how it will work
out, but thus far 1t seems to be en-
tireiy satisfactory. We find that the
giving of vacations In the spring, fall
and winter months has a tendency
to cause our employees to travel South
and to visit places where they might
never think of going in the summer
time"
