Morgan claims Grande has defeated Chip on points in two previous bouts and he also says Gran de has two decisions over Johnny Howard.
 Grande is described as a rushing, slam bang fighter but local fans who saw Chip in last weeks bout, think Grande will have to be a wonder to beat the former champion. The bout is scheduled for 1 5 rounds.

AN ARKANSAS MAN TESTIFIES

Mr.. j. Z. Dunn, Charleston, Ark,
writes. My wife was in very poor health,
not able to do her homework and in bed
part of the time. The doctor said she had
tuberculosis and had had it some eight or
ten years and said that there was no
medicine that would do her any good.
Having noticed your advertisement of
Lung-Vita we decided to try a bottle. She
has taken four bottles and is now on her
fifth. She says that she feels as well as
she ever did and has gained eleven pounds
in weight. We can gladly recommend
your medicine to all suffering likewise"
Lung-Vita is recommended for con-
sumption and asthma. If you suffer from
either of these ailments try a thirty-day

sections A and c of the British asso-

lion at the Australia meeting: THAT
in view of the fact that meteOrites
which convey infOrmItiOn of world

posed of privately in such a way as
to deprive the public of this infOrma-
ton, the council be requested to take
such steps as may initiate interna-

Little Rock
A number of school directors and
teachers began the campaign for the
l2-mill school tax amendment sub
mitted to the voters of the state by
the last Legislature. An organization
to be known as the school directors
educational campaign committee was
formed with T. A. Trusty of Fort
Smith, president; Granville Cubage OF
Newport, campaign manager: Edgar
Williams Of Newport, secretary, and
l.. b. Mcclure OF Russellville, treas,
urer. The organization will at once
begin a campaign Of the state in the
interest Of the proposed constitutional
amendment. The maximum school
tax under the present law is seven
mills.
Considerable opposition has develop
ed against the proposed increase,
coming principally from the rural dis,
tricts, the farmers claiming that they
are already burdened with taxation
beyond their ably to pay. Many OF
the business organizations of the state
are also opDOsed[to the increase.
Under a decision handed down by
the Supreme CouS some time ago, it
VIII require a mat6ffrysof all the votes
cast at the November election to
adopt the amendment A majority Of
the votes cast on that question alone
will not suffice, according to the Su-
preme Court decision. The total vote
cast for the candidates for state offices
will be the test. In other words, the
amendment must receive the majority
of all the votes cast for the candidate
for the state office receiving the larg-
est number of votes before it can be
made a part of the organic law of the
state Several amendment submit
ted during the past 10 years received
majorities on that particular subject,
but failed to receive a majority OF all
the votes cast at the election and were
declared not legally adopted by the
