Building New Line From
 Little Rock to Malvern

l. J 5athareny, foreman for the Southwestern Telegraph and Tele- phone Co., arrived in the city Satur- day, with twelve linemen, who are at the Iiigdon hotel, where they will have their headquarters, while work ing on the extra line to be built from Little Rock to Malvern by the South western Telegraph & Telephone Co. This was decided upon several weeks ago by this company, and actual work on the line is now in progress. The necessity for this additional line, was caused by the increase of toll messages from this point, north, and will mean much better service for the patrons of the company. It will probably take several weeks to complete the line.

 The Board of Control last April decided to change Superintendents, and employed a successor to Dr. Bledsoe, who refused to be fired. and took the matter to the courts. He was upheld by the Chancery Court, and the Beard of Control appealed the case to the Supreme Court. Be fore the matter was taken to the Courts, many days were spent in an investigation. by the Board, and a large number of witnesses were ex- anined.

Vermont Way.
{ Boston Journal

Vermont, although the number of its
troops in camp is small and its native
generosity not small finds that the
hand-to-mOuth methods of providing re
lief for militiamen s families are not "a
success. Gov. Gates has called a spe-
cial session of the legislature for next
Thursday "to provide for such compen-
sation of Vermont troops III addition to
United States pay and for such relief
of their families and dependents as may
seem advisable. -
Vermont is the first state to call the
legislature into session for militia re-
lief. 1t may not be the last state to
take action if the troops remain away
through this month.
Even in Massachusetts, where public
spirit in times of emergency is always
prompt and liberal, there is difficulty
in providing a decent living for desti-
tute dependents of the soldiers. The re-
lief fund has been so small that the
cxpcdients Of the frankest charity have
been adopted. The dignity of a fund
gathered without the fuss of ordinary
charity methods seems impossible of at
tainment. The soldiers family asks
and receives at some cost of pride, in
many instances. Massachusetts is not
likely to tolerate that plan much longer
Special legislative sessions in the first
few days of the militia mobilization
would have seemed hysterical. But
| with continuing doubt as to the periO6
of border duty and with the public fer
vor gradually subsiding to the zero
mark, there will be renewed discussion
of legislative action in many states.

THE 1917 MOD Ell

The 1917 model is a whole souled
effort to make the owner Of n new au-
tomobile wish he had waited a few
weeks and saved the price of four non
skid tires. This effort always proves a
success, and causes the garages Of our
country to be crowded with late pur
chasers who are looking for a chance
to punch the interlining out of the
proprietor.
The 1917 model is usually brought
out on the first Of July, in order that
the man who bought at the old price
on June ID can enjoy the Fourth with
n glad heart. 1t requires true religion
for a new driver to read Il twO-pagc
advertisement in three colors, offering
his car for 800 less money and offer
ing to throw in tire pump, without
falling on his knees and hoping that
somebody will set the factory ON fire
in seven distinct spots. More murder is
committed ut long distance by the prae-
tice of shortening the price and
lengthening the wheel base Of aut0mo
hiles on the first of July than by the
treatment of Americans in Mexico.
Once in a while, however, some manu-
| facturer who was caught in his stock
/ ing feet by the European war raises
/ the price of the 1917 model. thereby
causing the confding prospect who was
waiting for drop to utter a piercing
roar Of wrath. This unfeeling act has

NORWICH UNIVERSITY NOTES.
Major Tompkins to Return to Norwich

Major Tompkins to Return to Norwich.
Orders have been issued by the war
department detailing Major Frank
Tompkins for service as professor of
military science and tactics at Norwich
university. Major Tompkins, then Cap
tain Tompkins, first came to Norwich
in the fall of 1910 and remained until
the summer Of 1913. While there he won
the respect of the students, faculty,
and the general public of the state. AT
ter leaving Norwich he did duty on the
Mexican border. At the Columbus raid
he was the leader of the party which
first pursued Villa across the border.
He was with Pershing 3 forces when
they entered Mexico, and figured in
several of the important actions. He
was the leader of the American forces
at Parral, where the Mexicans tried to
ambush them; and it was only by his
fine leadership that they did not sue
coed. While in Mexico he was wounded
twice and at last had to return to n
hospital After coming from the hos
pitaI he was detailed to the First Yer
mont cavalry at Fort Ethan Allen. If
this regiment had been organized it was
understood that he was to have been
its colonel. Norwich is to be congrat-
ulated ON again obtaining this efficient
leader.

created more anarchists than the steady
upward flight of the gasoline schedule.
When a manufacturer raises the price
it is always attributed to the battle
of Nerdun and the scarcity of trans
mission grease cups and is fully made
mp by adding a few inches of strcan
line body and throwing in a tonneau
light.
The 1917 model looks a good deal
like the 1916 pattern, but in reality
they are not alike in anything cX-
cept their appetite for gasoline, lubri-
eating oil and garage bills. The 1917
model has a number of expensive re
finements and is worth the money +
fewer people would try to get $4,000
worth of automobile for the price of
a double-shovel cultivator, it would be
easier to run a garage without con
tracing senile dementia. The only man
who gets stung in buying an ANTONIO
bile is the one who holds off in his wis
dom until the price has vaulted into
the top of IN elm tree
The 1917 model is n source Of Joy to
the dealer who has a hangover of ten
cars bought the fall previous. This en-
ables him to give away Juicy slice
of profit and also to wish that he had
taken his wife 5 advice and remained
on the home farm. where the price OF
mess pork and veal calves would turn
In more money than merry go-round

This tremendous hammeriug which
the allies are giving the Teutons every
day, without sufficient offset on the
lattcr's side, must be wearing to the
patriotism and the courage of the
armies. They must feel that the cur
rent is running against them and they
have no hope of final victory. When
that feeling gets possession of the Teu-
tonic hosts there will be more surren-

GIANT HEAD A PLAGUE WARDER
Fantastic Device Erected by Chinese
Residents of Boston.

BOSTON, Aug. ga monster head,
made of highly colored paper, fantas-
tically decorated and extremely gro
tesque, has been set up in Chinatown
by its denizens as a special protection
against infantile paralysis. 1t is done to
satisfy the fears of more than two score
Chinese mothers. Such a creature has
often been used in China to brighten
and ward off plaques.
The head is about five feet in di-
ameter, shaped something like frog,
with bullying eyes, which are hung on
wire and swing up and down. 1t has a
horn on top, supposed to be typical of a
Chinese unicorn, but looking more like
Punch s cap.
