LOAN BOARD WILL BORROW
 AFTER ADJOURNMENT

Little Rock, Feb. 14.-The State Loan Board, which is to make prelim- mary plans for the $750,000 state loan was unable to meet on last Saturday because Gov. c. H. Brough was too much in demand by legislators to at tend. For that reason it has been agreed to let the matter rest until the end of the legislative session, for there is no rush in the matter, as the state paper cannot be sold until the first of July, under the bill which pro- vided for the loan.
 The loan must be advertised for 30 days in two daily papers of the state and in two financial papers outside the state, and bids can be taken at any time thereafter, but the state cannot make delivery of its paper until July.

PLY lCIANS MUST
 PASS EXAMINATIONS
Arkansas Senate Shows no Mer- cy to DOctOrs-Receive 3S Bills From House and Read Them First and Second Time

Little Rock, Feb. 14.-Physicians who cannot pass the examination pre- scribed by the State Board of Medical Examiners can expect no relief from the Arkansas Senate. A bill from the House, by MT. Bell, was received in the Senate Tuesday afternoon, and as soon as it had been read the first time, Senator Ruff of Cleburne, who Is a practicing physician, offered motion to table, which he substituted with a motion to indefinitely postpone. The only Senator who would take the floor against the motion was Senator Burgess of Pope, who declared that if the bill failed there were a number of practicing physicians in the interior of Pope, Johnson and other counties who would be barred, and the people have no physicians to serve them. He admitted that the men had tried the examinations and had failed.
 The bill was for the relief of Dr. John Floyd of Johnson county, and the names of dozen or so old time physicians were added in the House. Mir. Burgess explained that these men for one reason and another had failed to qualify under the provisions of the general law, and they now could not get by without an examination.
 The Senate voted IS to 10 to in- definitely postpone the bill.
 The Senate received thirty-eight bills from the House and read them the first and second time. This was all accomplished in an hour, how, is one of the deep and dark secrets of the reading clerk, but the Supreme Court has held that the Journal does not lie, and the Journal is regular on these bills. Every bill the House has transmitted to the Senate has now been read.
 With all bills read the Senate passed the following bills from the House:
 By Mosley, for working Howard county roads; Doyle, to require Frisco to maintain telegraph operator at Portia; Copeland of Howard, for re- lief of Howard county school dis tricts; Robbins, regulating road work in White county; Harrison, creating special school district of Cold Water Cross county; Thane, enlarging Ar kansas City special school district; Allen, validating three mill road tax levy made by the quorum courts of many counties after the general cleo tion; Craig, creating office of public weigher in Green county.

 The Caldwell bill, which had passed the Senate, to adopt and purchase the Kirby & Castle Digest, was defeated by vote of 43 to 46. There was hard fight made on both sides of the proposition, and more talk about lobbying. both for and against, than had yet been indulged in on any other measQure.

RUSSIANS RETREAT
ACROSS THE BORDER
LOYAL TROOPS COMPELLED TO
GIVE GROUND BEFORE
STRONGER FORCES.
French Troops in the Aisne Region
Have Turned in Vicious counterat-
tacks Against the Army of the
German Crown Prince.

Having retreated a distance of ap-
prOximately 100 miles from where
Kerenslly, the iron man Of Russia,
carried them in his personally con
Quoted drive early in the present
month, the Russian army on the cen
ter of the line in east Galicia is again
on Russian soil on both sides of
Husiatyn, and is still being followed by
the forces Of the Teutonic allies.
Likewise the armies to the north ami
south continue to fall back before the
enemy. Wherever the faithful troops
attempt to give battle they are har-
raised by numerically stronger forces
of the Teutons and compelled to give
ground, receiving no assistance from
their recalciuant former brothers-in-
arms, whose main effort continues to
be to get out of striking distance Of
the enemy.
Evidently the preparations for the
blood and iron" policy of the govern
ment against the dissaffected troops
shortly will be put into full force. for
Minister of War Kerensky is on his
way to the Russian headquarters,
there to confer with the military lead
ers to formulate plans to stay the re-
treat and compel the troops to stand
and face the foe as the Russians in
the southern Carpathian region are
doing. Down along this latter front
the Russians, aided by the Rumainians,
continue to force the Teutonic allies to
cede ground, especially in the upper
Putna valley.
French troops in the Aisne region
have turned in vicious counter-attacks
against the army of the German crown
prince, put down an offensive it had
started between Hurtebise and La
Bovelle, and made good gains against
it all along the line. Several attacks
by the Germans in the Verdun sector
were repulsed. The progress in Elan
ders for more than a week continues
undated.
In the air the machines of Great
Britain and Germany are carrying out
maneuvers never before seen. As an
Indication of the intensity of these
aerial combats, thirty German air
planes were accounted for in the latest
fighting, in addition to two observation
balloons. The British war office adj
mits that thirteen of the royal air
squadron failed TO return TO their
bases. The German war office asserts,
however. that thirty-five British planes
were shot down.

LOOKED LIKE INVERTED RAIN
Bullets From Machine Guns Gave Odd
Impression TO Aviator at Whom
They Were Aimed.

It viii be easily understood, writes
Mr.. C. G. Grey in "TaIes of the Fly
ing Service" that before a bullet that
has been shot straight upward begins
TO fall there must be a point where it
stands dead still, and that for the last
part of its upward path it travels very
slowly. One officer Of my acquaint-
ance told me, after some months of
war, that his most curious experience
was when once, and once only, he dis
covered the exact extreme range point.
He was flying along quite peacefully
on a bright sunny morning at an alti-
tude of little over 5000 feet, without
worrying about anything, when sudden
ly he saw something bright dart past
the side of the machine He began to
look about him and saw, shade be
low him and a trifie to one side, a
whole stream of little bright things gilt
tering in the sun.
Then he realized that he had just
struck a level that happened to be the
extreme vertical range of machine
gun that was making uncommOnly
good shooting. Other bullets from
rifles and other machine guns also
flashed into view as he flew along, and
when his eyes caught the right focus
he could follow the slow, tOpmost part
of their movement for a considerable
distance. ut looked" he said, Just as
if it were raining upward" and the
phenomenon was so novel that he quite
forgot for time that the "raindrops"
indicated that he was unpopular with
someone beIow.-Youth's Companion.

call him. 1t is well known that the
general wants to join the troops in

PARAFFIN CAN BE CLEANED
Do Not Throw 1t Away Because 1t
Has Become Dirty, Says Specialist
of Agricultural Department.

Parafiin that has become unclean
through usage in canning and preserv-
ing may be cleaned and reused.
Don't throw it away because dirt
and trash have become mixed with it.
Many times it can be cleaned with a
brush in cold water
If this does not remove all the dirt.
says a specialist of the United States
department of agriculture, heat the
paraffin to boiling and strain it through
two or three thicknesses of cheese
cloth placed over funnel, or thin
layer of absorbent cotton over one
thickness of cheesecloth may be used
as the strainer.
One straining should be sufficient
ordinarily, but if the paraffin still is
unclean, heat and strain again. Any
paraffin lodging in the strainer may
be recovered by heating the cloth and
pouring the hot liquid into another
strainer.

ALLIES WILL FIGHT
UNTIL TRUMP HANT
DECIDE NOT TO LAY DOWN ARMS
UNTIL CENTRAL EMPIRES HAVE
BEEN DEFEATED.
United in Defense of Peoples Rights
and Determined to Render lmpos-
sible Return of Criminal Aggression
of Which Germany Is Guilty.

Paris.-The allied powers, on July
26th, concluded their conference after
announcing a decision to continue the
war until the object for which they
are fighting is attained.
Their declaration, which was made
unanimously before separating, reads !:
The allied powers, more closely
united than ever for the defense of
the peoples rights, particularly in the
Balkan peninsula, are resolved not to
lay down arms until they have attained
the end which in their eyes domn-
ates all others-to render impossible
a return of the criminal aggression
such as that whereof the central en-
pires bear the responsibility
There was unanimous agreement on
all decisions reached during the meet
ings. The minister of the depart
ments affected will meet in London to
draw up the executive measures.
Withdraw Troops From Greece.
The following announcement respect
ing the decision of the allies concern
ing Greek territory now occupied by
their military forces was puDilsHeu
Friday.
France, Great Britain and Italy,
simultaneously and as soon as possible
will end the occupations they have
been obliged to make in ancient
Greece, Thessaly and Epirus. Military
occupation of the triangle formed by
the Santi Quaranta road and the
Epirus frontier will be maintained pro-
visionally as a measure of security.
Italy and Greece to agree as regards
re-establishment of the civil admins
tration under a commissioner APP

BRITISH PACIF|STS
ARE TURNED DOWN
URGE ALLIES TO SET FORTH
THEIR PEACE TERMS, BUT RE-
CElVE NO ENCOURAGEMENT.
Former Premier Asquith Sees No Hope
Yet of Bringing War to Satisfac-
tory Ending in German Peoples
Attitude.

LondOn.-The house of commons on
Thursday after employing the Whole
evening session in a discussion of a
peace resolution, moved by James
Ramsay Mcdonald, socialist and labor
member, defeated it by a vote of AS
to 10. The announcement of the fig
ures was received with some cheers
and much laughter.
The resolution declared that the Ger
man reichstag resolution favOring
peace by an understanding expressed
the principles for which Great Britain
stood throughout, and called on the
government, in conjunction with the
entente allies, to restate their peace
terms accordingly.
Further. the resolution declared that
the allies should accept the Russian
proposal that the forthcoming allied
conference on the war aims should
comprise representatives of the people
and not solely spokesman of the gov
eminent.
The smallness of the numbers in the
house when division was taken is an
indication of the little interest shown
by parliament in any hope of useful
peace movement at the present juno
ture and the conviction was voiced in
an important statement by Herbert II.
Asquith, the former premier, that moth
ing was to be hoped from the present
temper of the German reichstag and
people.
The speech of Andrew BOnar Law,
the government leader IN the house,
dealt largely with the Russian crisis.
He was certain that if anything could
delay peace it would be any sign of
faltering.
