The plan as initiated by the Thomas A. Edison Company, consists of a board of directors selected one from each state to pass on the pictures and see that the tllms are distributed schools themselves furnish the appa- ratus for showing the pictures. The films will be sent free to all schools desiring them on agreement to pay the express of sending
 To show the progress made in this field, Dr. Jewell stated that the Uni versity of Wisconsin has one man whose sole duty is to look after the development of visual education in the state. The director of Ohio, Su- perintendent Frederick at Cleveland, has just succeeded in placing a nov ing picture machine and booth in every grade school and one high school in Cleveland. There the li hraries of the educated people contain films on geography, physiology, sociol- ogy and other educational subjects.
 The National Society for the promo tion of moral education is working in connection with the Edison Company and has contributed many films on such subjects as Fair Play" Hon. esty." etc.

The Arkansas Senate. by vote of Is to 15, voted down the Smith of Co., lumbia bill to repeal the act creating the Arkansas Acturial Bureau. This was done after a debate which con- sumed the entire afternoon session, and after the vote had been an- nounced, Senator Edmondson. who had changed his vote from aye to nay, gave notice that he would offer a mo- tion to reconsider at a future date. The vote upon the repeal bill was as follows:
 Ayes-Ashley, Burgess, Bush, Duty, Edmondson, Garrett, Greenhouse, Har- ris, Mccall, Ruff, Sims. Smith of Co- lumbia, Smith of Union, Wagner-15.
 Nays-Adamson, Cabiness, Calvert, Carter, Collins, Davenport, Ferguson, Futrell, Going, Hamilton, Jones, Ken dall, Moore, Overman, Slaughter, To- Ter, Yam, White-1S.
 There was never roll call so close as this one, even on the liquor ques- tion, the result being in doubt up to the very last, and anxious senators looked about for the two absent mem- bers, Owens and Wasson, hoping that their vote might be registered in or der that the result of full count on reconsideration might be indicated
 Senator Going opened the ball with motion to indefinitely postpone the bill. He was followed by Senator
 
 of the insurance business in the hands of the insurance men was like rail- road commission composed of rail- road men. Senators Duty and Burgess, also favoring the repeal of the Act urial Bureau bill, followed with lengthy arguments. Senators Moore and Calvert opposed the bill, Senator Moore declaring that the withdrawal of insurance would foreclose many mortgages, which are based upon the mortgagee carrying insurance. Sena- tor Calvert declared that the bureau is not now given sufficient power, for it should have the right to find if one class is bearing the insurance burden of another, and to force the companies to disclose their basis of rates in or der that all insurance might be equal ized. Senator Cabiness declared that the Bureau had lowered the rate in his section. and Senator Carter spoke along the same line.
 After Senator Going had made his closing argument in opposition to the bill he withdrew his motion to indef- nately postpone, and Senator Smith devoted a half hour to the bill, de- claring that if the Senate failed to re- peal the measure. it was an appropria- tion of Sl0,000 per annum to the in- surance companies. He analysed rates and declared the insurance trust" created under the act had raised them generally.
