alton. in all the schools of all the
provinces of China. 1t is hoped that
in this way the literary language
will become universal throughout the
empire and the local dialects drop out

Proba bly, no one thing would be of
such vast benefit to China as the sue
cess of this plan-but can it succeed
At present each province has a speech
of its own, often unintelligible to the
dwellers in every other part of China.
To bring order out of such confusion
will be far greater achievement than
the standardiZing of the German lam

through Luther's Bible. China has
nearly twenty times as large'a popula-

 Ordinarily the living models for a style show are selected first, and the costumes they are to display are then chosen. This will not be the case in the Pine Bluff Fashion Review, how ever, as it is intended here to select allowing of the showing of the hand somest. most attras,ive and most up- tO-the-minute costumes, hats, shoes and other articles of apparel to the very best effect.
 It is understood that already sev- eral of the merchants are preparing for unusually select displays of the very latest thing in styles, not only for the women and girls, but also for the men and boys, while the styles for the real little folk are also to be shown in most comprehensive style. In addition there will be dis played and demonstrated lots of other articles, generally of the toilet acces- sory class, all of which will give the affair wide rangel
 The committee in charge will hold a meeting Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock, at which time many of the details will be- discussed, and num- Der ofEsubcommittees will be named to look after the many details. Among the things under consideration are a musical and 5sliterary program luncheon, formal reception and other such affairs, which will allow of the display 1of the costumes and other accessories used only on these occasiolis.ey ,l af
