towns throughout the state, and it IS believed no difficulty will be found in securing a sufficient sum to prose cute vigorous and winning fight for the amendment and to put the neces- sary information in the hands of every voter.
 By virtue of it's being recognized
 as the educational center of the state, it is considered very appropri- ate for Conway to take the lead in raising funds for the campaign. Local reasons which appeal with special force will also develop, it is believed, a strong and practically un- animous sentiment for the amend ment. In addition to the imperative need of the Conway district itself for additional funds, it is pointed out that the amendment, if adopted, will
 be of wonderful benefit to the Ar kansas State Normal School, located
 here. Adequate revenue will mean better salaries for teachers; better

salaries will bring about a demand for better preparation and more effi- clency on the part of the teachers and this in turn will send hundreds of them to the Normal who would not otherwise attend. Central and Hendrix colleges would also reap benefit from this increased demand for better prepared teachers. An other local incentive is the fact that Conway is the home of the Arkansas Teacher, the official monthly publi- cation of the teachers of the state. The journal, which was established here only a little more than three years ago, has become a strong fac tor in the educational work of the state and has wide and rapidly growing circulation. It is edited by President J. J. Doyne and is recog- nized, not only in this state, but throughout the nation, as one of the strong educational journals of the cOuntrV

If Mayor Thompson and Chief Of

planned reason big Bill" sits silent
Iy in his comfortable chair in the City
Hall and refuses to instruct HeaIey
to enforce an ordinance designed to
help the people of Chicago against
conniving Of the cold storage hogs.
The ordinance was passed several
years ago. It provides punishment
for forestaIling and regarding food
stuffs. It might not entirely solve
the high cost of living problem if en-
forced, but it would prove to the
cold storage gang that the mayor
and the police dept were standing
by the people and that embarrassing
police raids would occur if the ordi-
nance wasn't complied with. But Big
Bill and Healey won't make a move
to enforce the ordinance.

GIVE CREDIT TO AUTO
RESPONSIBLE FOR BETTER-HlGH-

Growing Number of Motor Trucks In
Operation Has Made Improve
ment Inevitable.

In an address before the Reading
(Pa.) chamber of commerce, Arthur IL.
Blanchard, professor of highway en-
gineering at Columbia university, N.
", claimed it is the motor car
which has been responsible for the
steady improvements in nearly all
roads and for the continual agitation
for improved highways. In speaking
of the highways to be found in for
eign countries, the French and Eng
lish roads were greatly praised by
the speaker. France owes its splendid
roads to the efficiency of its engineers,
he said. In England, he stated. the
roads are good, partly because or the
physical condition of the country
which make road building and main
tenance easy.
He referred to the growing number
of motcr trucks on the public roads,
as follows: Years ago an average
width of a road was considered good

road is adequate now. The highways
cannot be made too wide. To ignore
the motor vehicle in the building of
roads is utter negligence. Some large
trucks have a width of 100 inches. In
building a state road the minimum
width should be 20 feet

made in the construction of our high

new rails, to replace the WORKOUT
ones, and, in the same manner, the
roads must be kept in repair. In 1914
there were 100 notorious routes in
New York state outside of New York
city. This number is increasing

conclusion, that Columbia university

Blue Bird feature, Hop, the Devils
Brew" written especially for them by
Rufus Steele, the noted American au-
thor with the assistance of the U. S.

Lydia Jansen is a faithful and low
ing wife. Unknown to her husband,
customs inspector, she has become ad'
dicted to smoking opium In the par
lance of the underworld. this devils
brew is called hop" Her own father,
politician is the head an opium i'm
porting gang, which is the principal
medium whereby the addicts obtained
their supply of opium.
Lydias craving for the drug Is so
great, and her desire to conceal the
habit from her husband so strong that
She is embroiled in a series of black
mailing attempts by her maid, who is
affiancad to the stevedore through
whom most of the opium is
landed from the vessels by which it
is smuggled. Her attempts to satisfy
her craving for hop, at time when
the government is closing in upon the
smueglers. eXcites her husbands sus-
picion, and of course he thinks an
other man has entered her life and it
is only through an almost superhu-
man exercise of will power than she
finds the strength to conquer her ap-
petite and confess to her husband the
terrible habit which she had formed
and thus relieve the terrible suspicion
which had grown like a haunting
nightmare into his very life. The
shock of finding that he himself had
contributed to his own daughters
downfall causes the fathers suicide
and the capture OF the entire opium
smuggling gang.

Hippodrome Notes

Mrs. Ernest Iselin, Mrs. Irving
Brokaw and Mrs. Barger-Wallach
have agreed to judge the children's
and ladies' classes in the champion
ship skating competitions to be held
at the Hippodrome the week of Feb
ruary IA. Their names have been
sent to the Eastern Skating Asso-
citation by the committee for confirm
alton. Expert skaters like Irving
Brokaw will judge the other events.
Those competitions will be open to
all and entries close Saturday Feb
ruary IL. Prizes will be given to
the winners of every class, and silver
cups for special events are presented
by the Hippodrome, Hotel Plaza,
Charlotte and Irving Brokaw.
From information received at the
Hippodrome from manufacturers of
skates and dealers in sporting goods,
it is estimated that there are over
250,0O0 skaters now in New York
compared with 10000 last season,
and the money spent on skates and
costumes this winter, $2,6O0,00O in
place of $105,O00 year ago.
''Hip-Hip- Hooray" = two hundred
times. On Tuesday matinee of last
week, the great pageant of delight
at the Hippodrome ended it's second
century with record full of remark
able achievements. Pleasure has
been brought to one million patrons
and the specious playhouse on Sixth
avenue has re-established itself as a
national institution that is unique in
the history of the American stage.
Among the many interesting fea-
lures one might observe in connec-
ton with this memorable season, is
the precision with which the massive
spectacle moves after it's two hum
dredth presentation. The whole pro-
duction passes in review with clock
like discipline and in the whole four
months of its career but few per-
formances have varied in running
time.
