CHAUTAUQUA,

Sunny California lives up to the
press notices and an argument is
easily started if one is so careless as
to criticise the climate, which is Su-
perb at this season just a few miles
across the Bay, in the peaceful and
productive Napa, Santa Rosa and
Sacramento Valleys but the change
able climate of Frisco, at this time,
is much too cool for a Southerner,
especially so when the trade winds
blow a regular gale and the fog
hangs over the city. The topography
of San Francisco evidently accounts
for this, as it is located on a hill, a
peninsular jutting out into the Pa
cific on one side and the Bay on the
other. Am still wearing winter

Unselfishness of Resistance.

1t is not always sign of un-
selfishnes to give in. Frequently
that is the most seifst thing one
can do. Many people yield every
point to others, give mp their time
and, work and even their peace OF
mind because selfish persons find
they can exact it from them, and
then Imagine they are unselfih.
They are not. They are merely
weak. The unaeIfish person gives
only that which will be benefit
to the receiver. 1t is not gener-
osity to give man quarter to
help him get drunk, nor TO give

verything TO some selfish person
who always exacts and never gives,
for it merely increases his or her
sel6shness.
Frequently the most uneelfsh
thing one can do is to resist the
demands of some one else. If, all
things considered, that demand is
not for the best, then it is gener-
Gus to refuse it. Il is often more
generous to appear selfish than to
appear generous. One can yield
easily to the urgence of another
whose pleasure seems to depend
on the yielding, and yet that pleas.
ure may be to the hurt of both.
1t is not unsel6sh to be weak. The
real test of unselishness is, am [
willing to sacrifice for the real
good of others, even if | must sac
rifce their fattering opinion OF
me? That is one of the hardest
things to do and is sometimes
necessary. There is some conso-
lation in it, however: That when

Word Of Warning About In
fanti1e Paralysis.

1t is timely to issue a word of
warning to the various school CON-
munities, towns and cities of Mis-
sissippi relative 10 infantile paralys
sis. With the opening OF school,
there is danger Of the spread of
this disease ia Mississippi unless
every precaution is taken in it's
prevention and treat ment. Since
January, first, one hundred and
eighty. six cases of this disease have
been reported to the State Board
of Health. Over one half of these
have occurred during the months
of June and July These cases
have been rep nrted from as many
as fifty counties in the State.
The germs of this disease may be
spread by the nose and throat Sc
oretions, and bowel discharges of
the patients aud convalescents 1t
may also be spread by we'll persons
who become carriers" by associa-
ton with patients. Tue carrier is
perhaps one of the most common
cause of the occurrence and spread
of this infection.
Since the disease is insidious in
its spread, and occurs III the most
unexpected places, eternal vigil
lence should be the watch-word
throughout the entire state at the
opening of school.
The following preventive meas
ures should be observed:
The proper rep 'rtlng Of all cases

CLINTON HIGHWAY
 BOOSTERS COMING

Cashier Frank Farris has received a letter from Tom Davis of Clinton, secretary of the Van Buren county organization for the promotion of the Little Rock, Clinton and Rogers state highway, stating number of boost CTS will arrive here from Clinton this afternoon for the purpose of meet ing with Conway people and discuss ing the proposed road A meeting has been called by the Conway Motor Club, to be held in the salesroom of the Conway Motor Car Company, for ,the purpose of receiving the visitors, and all members of the club, local business men and others interested are requested to be present. The meeting will begin at 7:30 o'clock.
 It is pointed out that a state high way leading north from Little Rock through Conway and Clinton would be an invaluable acquisition and would be from business standpoint the most profitable road that could be built leading out of Conway. The Clinton organization is very much in earnest over the project and hope to secure both national and state aid for the proposed road. It is hoped that large number of local citizens will be present to greet the visitors to- night.

OR, JOHNSTON FOR
 HENDRIX CAMP PA|CN

A recommendation that Dr. F. s. H. Johnston, pastor of the First Methodist church at Conway, be re- leased from pastoral duties and be assigned to assist Dr. James Thomas in the campaign for $400,000 endow- ment for Hendrix College, will prob ably be made to the next annual Ar kansas conference as a result of meeting held here last night. Dr. Thomas, Dr. Stonewall Anderson, sec retary of the board of education of the general conference, and several members of the board of trustees of Hendrix College and of the local church were present at the meeting.
 In previous campaigns for the col lege Dr. Johnston has rendered vali- ant and effective service and for some time he was financial commissioner for Hendrix, and it is understood that Dr. Thomas desires his service in putting on popular campaign to complete the endowment and building fund of the college. His assignment to this work would mean the appoint ment of new pastor to the local church. Dr. Johnston is now com pleting his second year in the pastor ate, although he had previously serv- ed four years in the same capacity and also resided here several years while presiding elder of the district.

NORMAL -JONFSBORO
 CONTEST SATURCAY
Coach Estes Admits Pedagogues Eleven is Looking for Aggie's Game.

The Normal Jonesboro Aggies clash will be staged Saturday after noon at 3 o'clock on the Normal field. Coach Estes of the Normal endeayored to have the game ad- vanced to Friday, but received a telegram from Coach Brannon of Jonesboro to the effect that it would be impossible for him to change the original date. The farmer boys will leave Jonesboro Friday afternoon and arrive here Saturday morning at 9:5O o'clock.
 Coach Estes said this afternoon that his team is looking pretty good" !" When a coach admits his team is looking good, dependence may be placed in the utterance. They usual ly have different story to give out. The Pedagogues were given a hard scrimmage yesterday, and while some of the gridders came out of the fracas with bruises and sprained ankles, they will be all right for Saturdays big battle. The Normal is not over- confident of victory over the agri- culturalists, but there seems to be very little gloom in their midst.
 The Jonesboro aggregation has played three games this season, win ring two and losing one. The win ner over the Aggies was University of Mississippi, who defeated them 2O to 0. The same team mopped up wluh the Hendrix Bulldogs, 51 to 0. There you have comparison of the Normal and Jonesboro. Hendrix and the Pedagogues are considered about on par. Union University fell before the Aggies, 36 to 13, while Arkansas College lost to Brannon's eleven, II to c.
 The Normal has played only one game this season, losing to Ouachita, l9 to 0. That game is considered as evidence of strong team at the Nor nal, as Ouachita has reputation for turning out the strongest college teams in the state.
 The remainder of the week at the Normal will be given over to light workouts. No more scrimmaging will take place, as Coach Estes doesn't want to run any risk of getting his pigskin chasers injured before the battle.
 The game will start promptly at 8 o'clock. The price of admission will be 50 cents.
