CITIES CAN BE TAKEN
 IN HIGHWAY DISTRICTS
State Highway Engineer Carter Says His Letter to Van Buren Road
 Promoters was Misc0nstrued.

That his letter recently republished
 in the Log Cabin Democrat to the effect that cities and towns could not
 be included in road improvement dis tricts was misconstrued was the statement today of State Highway Engineer Hugh R. Carter, who was in Conway on his way to attend a road meeting at Vilonia.
 In letter to a Van Buren man,
 published in the Van Buren Argus and republished in the Log Cabin Democrat, MT. Carter was quoted as saying that prominent firm of bond attorneys had ruled that under the Alexander act mo part of city or town" could be included in a coun- ty road improvement district. Strict ly speaking, MT. Carter said, this statement is correct, but he says he did not intend the letter for publi- cation, or he would have made it clear that while no part or portion of city might be incorporated in such a dis trict, there is no objection to includ- ing the whole of any city or town in such districts. In the case at Van Buren, Mir. Carter stated, it was de- sired to include only about three blocks of the city of Van Buren in a road district leading from the city, and MT. Carter wrote to inform the promoters that the portion of the city could not be included unless the whole city was put in.
 MT. Carter said that it was the opinion of Judge Loughborough, who passes upon a large majority of bonds issues in Arkansas, that the whole of city or town could be in- cluded in as many road districts as there are roads leading from the city, The assessment of benefits, however he stated, should be so regulated as to equalize the taxes in the town and not give one road district the benefit of a disproportionate amount of the taxes collected within the city.

PLAN CAMPAIGN FOR
 AMENDMENT NO. l2
Executive Committee Will Urge School Directors to be Active In
 Interest of Measure.

Little Rock, June 23.-The execu- tive committee which has in charge the campaign for amendment No. 12, by which school districts will be per mitted to vote a l2 mill school tax, met in Little Rock Thursday night and mapped a plan for the campaign.
 T. A. Trusty of Fort Smith, rep resenting the School Directors Asso- citation, stated that the principal business of the committee was to get the school directors in each county to working for the amendment. This would interest the leading citizens, and turn the teachers loose to work among the other patrons of the schools.
 The argument of the opposition was discussed, as we'll as the best means for combating it. It was eX- plained that the chief argument so far was an appeal to the credulity of the rural people, who were told that If the amendment was adopted they would have to pay more taxes. It was decided to reach these people through publicity and other means, and show them that no increase can be made unless they favor it, and at the same time point out the benefits to be derived which are far superior ,o any objections.
 Speakers will also be provided for the summer series of picnics.

CONWAY SCOUTS HIKE
 30 MILES IN ONE DAY
Boys are Enjoying Trip Immensely, Writes ScOutmaster Steele, Who
 is Still With Them.
Editor Log Cabin Democrat:

EdltOr Log CaDln Democrat:
 After four days of interesting hiking through the mountains the Conway Scouts reached Hot Springs at 3 o'clock Friday afternoon, having walked 30 miles that day. They were met by Scoutmaster Raleigh of Hot Springs and Sharp Dunaway. After having their picture taken at Happy Hollow they went to the court house and arranged their camp ing place. Saturday they were roy ally entertained by the Hot Springs Scouts, being taken through the large bath houses and other places of in- terest and well fed. They spent Sun- day at Iron Springs and go on Mon day to Malvern. The Hot Springs Scouts will meet the Conway Scouts at Benton Thursday and spend the day with the Benton Scouts. If the other towns keep up the entertaining pace that has been set so far the Conway Scouts will be on the road for some time longer than was ori- ginally planned.
 The boys have been in fine health and have enjoyed themselves i'm mensely. It did not rain once at night or at meal time during the whole trip. Outside of few blisters there has been no mishaps of any kind.
 l received the telegram announcing the death of my father too late to go to the funeral, so will continue the trip, as l do not wish to disap- point the boys.

A Question

What IS it that is causing all that trouble with your eyes? Are the eye muscles following those laws laid down to them by nature? Are they working in harmony and without strain? Are your eye nerves being exhausted and irritated by the un- natural demand made upon them by some form of eye strain that you have? l shall be pleased to set your mind at rest on these points.
 The supreme test of pair of glasses is not in the price, but in the satisfaction they give. We are ready to help you and are especially we'll equipped to give muscle exercise and treatment.
