PUBLIC SCHOOL NOTES.
.-s..s--:s--1-s..-......s.-::...-....is..:..s..;

. = . = - v S0S ' 1 The first thing on the program this week was to redistribute the pu- pills to get seating room. A number of the rooms were crowded beyond seating room. After consideration of all the plans suggested, it was de- cided to shift the high sixth to the | special room upstairs, the high fifth to room six, the high fourth to room five, and the excess pupils in rooms two and three to the special room downstairs. This relieves the situa- tion for the present; but rooms two, three, seven and eight are full and no more can be received in them. New corners for those rooms will go to special rooms. But it will be our policy to keep regular rooms for regular pupils. Those that enter late, come irregularly, or fail to hold their places in class will be shifted to the irregular rooms
 Notice has been served on the school that pupils heard calling the special rooms "numbskul," bone head,' etc, will be promptly assigned tc one of those rooms. None but numbskull folks are so lacking in tact as to speak so of those who work in those rooms. Some of cur bright est pupils are inthese rooms, and we should have too much good breeding to speak slightingly of those whom nature or adverse circumstances has kept from the regular ranks. Par ents given to the use of these and similar terms might take the hint
 There are l4 in the senior class two boys and 12 girls Wendell Hen- ry of this class is out at work.
 Miss Gussie Carmical succeeds Miss Maude Carmichal in room eight. Miss Carmical comes from New Edinburg, Ark. She graduated from Hendrix College in May of this year, and comes to us highly endorsed by her teachers, as well as by the school boards where she formerly taught. She boards at Mrs. Craig's on Prince street.
 Miss Fannie Wilson of Prescott, Ark, takes the place made vacant by the resignation of Miss Atkins, Miss Wilson graduated from the Ar kansas State Normal in 1915, and has had some four or five years ex- perience teaching. She is said to be one of the very best products of the Normal, and is taking hold of her work ln most encouraging way. She teaches in the special room for the upper grades and boards with Mrs. Bessie Cox on Davis street.
 We are waiting for some of our good women to inaugurate a move leading to a Parent Teachers Asso- citation We need such an organiza- tion greatly. We need to know our patrons better and they need tc know us and our plans and problems If we could spend an hour together once month getting acquainted and discussing questions of mutual in. terest, great good would come of 1t to all concerned. Such an organi- ration should know no social or re- ligious lines. Let all parents, rich and poor, educated and uneducated come together on common footing just as their children come in school and let all feel free to speak out on questions which they wish to dis. cuss. Who will make the start?

ILLEGAL SICNERS WILL
 BE BROUGHT TO JUSTICE
Prosecution of Those Unauthorized to Sign Repeal Bill is
 Decided Upon.

Little Rock, Sept. 5.-Investiga- tions that have been made of the pe- titions for the repeal of the state wide prohibition law, according to the officials of the Arkansas Anti Saloon League, indicate that fully one-half of the signatures are illegal. Not all of the verifications have been completed, but enough has been done to show that if illegal and irregular signatures were eliminated, there would not be enough names left for the initiation of the bill. Just what course will be taken by the league will not be decided for several days yet. There is a disposition among some of the leaders to let the bill go to vote, making public the illegal signatures to show what steps the saloon interests have taken to gain an advantage; others favor going into the courts to secure an injunction against the bill on the ground of ir- regularity.
 Here are few of the instances that have been discovered of glaring irregularities in the petition:
 In Pulaski county 5,905 names were secured, of which PISA are said to be legal, 3,137 illegal, and 2S4 the signatures of persons residing in other counties; of 1899 signatures in Sebastian county, 704 are illegal and 128 reside in other counties; Union county, 49 of which 24 are illegal; White county, 68 of which 35 are it. legal; Mempstead, 57 of which 29 are illegal; Perry, 136, of which 70 are illegal; Prairie, POS, of which 82 are illegal; Arkansas, 632, of which sos are illegal; Lincoln, 34, of which Is are illegal; St. Francis, PAS, of which 132 are illegal; Crittenden, AZ, of which 30 are illegal.
 The investigations are being con- tinued in other counties, and every where the ratio is being maintained. In Jefferson county, it is found that a majority of the signers are negroes.
 Col. George Thornburg reports out of 787 names on the prohibition re- peal petition reported in Jefferson county, which have already been ex- amined, 337 are illegal.
 It has been practically decided that prosecutions of illegal signers will soon begin in various parts of the state. An example is to Be made of them, that the direct legislative laws of the state may be purged from ille- gal practices.

BEFORE THE WEDDING.
Attention Must Be Paid to the Sta-
 tionery and Other Details

Not the least important of the
 many items pertaining to wedding
 preparations. is the wedding station cry. First of all the bride should
 be we'll supplied with small note pa- per or correspondence cards upon
 which she acknowledges her gifts,
 and the receipts of all messages of
 congratulation. Both note paper
 and correspondence cards are perfect
 ly correct. and they should have the bride-elect's initials or, monogram en-
 graved either in gold, colors or em-
 bossed in white, on the upper left
 hand corner of the sheet, or in the center near the top.
 Wedding invitations and announce
 ments should be issued in the names of the bride-elect's parents, or par ent, if one is deceased) or a bach elor brother, married brother and his wife jointly, or a married sister and her husband jointly. Or grand parents, or an uncle and aunt, or a guardian.
 The invitations should be sent out not less than two weeks prior to the date set for the ceremony. An l nouncements, of course, are never
 mailed until after the marriage has taken place. The receipt of an invita- ton to wedding at hotel, demands an immediate answer, but a wedding
 announcement requires no acknowl- edgement.
 Questions are often asked concern | ing the etiquette of the wedding invi. tation. Requests the pleasure o1 your company is the most cordial initiation to home wedding, when a reception follows the ceremony But in the case of church wedding, the form request the, honor of your presence" is used.
 When the wedding does not take place at the brides home, a reply card may be included indicating the address to which replies are to be sent. As:
 Please reply to 2So South ---- Street. Philadelphia"
 Another form Is to engrave the home address at the 1eft-hand corner
 of the invitation. as: R. s. V. F.. 230 South -. Street. Philadelhia. 1 A third form of indicating the ad- dress is to engrave or emboss it upon the flap of the outside envelope. When the bride has no parents ol | near relatives, wedding announce | ments are often issued by the bride and groom personally.
 l The vogue for using paper that is | pAnelled for wedding invitations and
 announcements still continues. Mod. ern Roman letters, old English ane | the various com binations and modi. fications of these, are shown for the
 more exclusive wedding invitation:
 for they are more expensive. but 2 medium heavy engraved English script is always in good taste and full. | fills all the requirements of a smart looking invitation.
