Llttle ROck.-
 Eve enjoyed my trip to Arkansas very much, and I am very sure Mrs. Marshall has, too," Vice President Thomas R. Marshall said in Little Rock en route te Indianapolis. We like it so we'll that we are coming back again. We both had little rheuma- tism when we went to Hot Springs. and 1 believe the baths have cured us.

Marshall got out and walked up and down the platform
 Arkansas is a wonderful state" he continued. Few people outside know now truly wonderful 1t is, and I don't think all of the people in it realize it's greatness. I have been much impress ed with what I have seen, and more with what has been told me. The fact that the state mines a great part of the ore, aluminium, I call it, though I believe you speak of it as bauxite, was something new to me. I was much interested, also, in seeing the pottery works at Benton. Hot Springs is a great resort"-here MT. Marshall wiped his forehead-"but I believe it must be more pleasant in the winter and spring than in the summer"

ABOUT RANK

ABOUT RANK.-The matter of
rank often puzzles the best of US.
What a problem it must be with the
hired people! In a morning paper I
note that a lady teacher objects to
the rank of "jobholder," saying:
81 had supposed that a teachers
work was rather a profession than a
job"
The lady should not have used the
word work" It is unaristocratic as
Sob" AS this nation began with abb
surd notions of Equality. it is not
strange that Rank is still in confu-
sion. It is not yet settled whether an
alderman ranks above a stock broker,
or a chauffeur above the ash-man.
These matters should be fixed by
work-peopIe themselves, but if they
cannot do so I and many others of
the upper ranks would be willing to
assist.
should say that rank ought to be
based on wages received, since the
rule, less work, more pay, now gov
ems so powerfully that we who do
nothing get the highest possible pay.
Money really governs, for even in
