Patriotic Picture Play to Be Presented For l ast Time
 Today at the Hauber.

"Womanhood; or, The Glory of | Nation,' a dramatic, soul-stirr ng picture play which was inspired ny Colonel Theodore Roosevelt. ali! which has been the attaction at tn Hauber theater yesterday and Mo day, will have it's final showinss ll. day, and if there is any one in Pi,le Bluff who has not witnessed it, thas person should not overlook the uoler tunity to see it this afternoon or ta. night.
 There have been patriotic fun stories shown in Pin" Bluff befa"c now, and they have had a most hi@h educational value.

 Audiences at the Hauber yesterday and Monday were very large, in fact, many persons were compellAt ll stand, because the crowds wcr2 tDc great for the seating capacity of the house. It is known tha, quite a n lrl- Der of persons witnessed the play more than once-and it is known also that quite number Of people from nearby towns and communities have driven into the city, particularly to witness this showing,
 The scenes are graphic in high de- gree, the pictures exceptionally clea" cut, and the dramatic features ar1 outstanding in high degree. The drama itself is strong, the lesson is presented in terribly-e;. .rncst manner, and the mere fact th&t the United States war department has ordered it's recruiting forces 70 make head quarters in the lobbies where the films are being shown, may be taken as conclusive evidence that the inn pression created by the pictures, is the impression that is desired by Colonel Roosevelt when he suggested the play, and by the authors and di- rectors, when they produced ito make the men and women know what conditions exist and to bring them to a keen realization of the great neel for every person to edo his bit"

 600 Pine Bluff ladies, business men
 and other citizens visited and inspect
 ed the Cotton Belt shops yesterday
 afternoon. at the invitation of Cotton Felt officials. which was extended through the chamber of commerce.
 The wives of the several Cotton
 Belt officials assisted their husbands
 in directing the visitors over the
 enormous plant, and, with their hus-
 bands, received the guests.
 The visitors were taken through every department of the shops, where
 they watched the progress Of the
 work, as the employees worked throughout the visit, to let the cltl- zens of Pine Bluff become acquainted with the workings and importance of railroad shops. The principal de- partments visited were the car shops, carpenter shop, machine shop. tlli shop and the roundhouse.
 One of the most interesting sights seen by the visitors was the comparl- son of freight engines used on the Cotton Belt in 1886 and the present lime. It was an odd contrast which the two engines showed. The one o1 some 30 years ago looked as lnslsnl1l- cant beside the monster engine useo today. The old engine was run by saturated steam ard the one now Tn use is operated with superheateo steam.
 At the conclusion of the trip the guests were given pamphlets written bv Vice President Herbert, telling ot inc deyelopment of the shops ana telling of the number of employees and the amounts earned by them per month, the majority of which goes to Pine Bluff merchants.
 The statement was:

 Professional foot ball is nothing new in the east and the financial frost Chat followed its introduction in this section has not been forgotten, despite the tact that fl is seventeen years since the scheme was first tried out in inc State of Pennsylvania. The game of foot ball is so peculiarly in ferWpron with college and school tra = diiiols and sentiment, that il fails to flourish in any other soil. This was clearly demonstrated in the early nincties wb"n professional elevens and
 'ania with teams playing for Pitts 3urSh, Philadelphia, Latrooe Home stead and Greenburg.
 The eastern college foot ball field was fine-combed for star players just graduated and the personnel of the jarious el"vens read like an All American combination. Salaries rang ing from S500 10 S1.500 per season were paid with all expenses and hos pital treatment guaranteed in case of accident Famous players were att tracted by the big money offered and the teams played foot ball of the most thrilling and ultra type. Among those who figured in the professional games were the Indian nrouthers. Bemis and HaWley Pierce: Dave Fultz; Roller. later a wrestler: Gam mons; Wallace; and many more, some of whom had been selected for AL American teams while still under graduates
 The first few games drew fairly large gatherings Of spectators. bU, inc novelty soon wore off and the at tendance rapidly dropped away until at the end uf the season the backers of the clubs were worced to go into their pockets tO make up the deficit Officers of the Philadelphia American and Natioral League clubs financed the Quaker City teams while the big steel companies and athletic clubs were interested in the other elevens of the group. which continued for two or three wears. with constantly chang ing combinations. before the promoters | finally gave up the struggle for popu- lar support

Rowinu Not Harmful

The committee on Student affairs at Cornell University. which recently made an investigation of the effects of long distance rowing upon the participants at the request of the faculty. has made the following re- port:
 "rhe criticism that four mile race is injurious to oarsmen holds equally true of course. for long distance run ming or any sport where violent exer- else is required for a prOtracted per iod. The invistigatiOn however, was confined to rowing since this sport was most in question and because more data bearing on this sport seemed to be available.
 The committee found great diff culty, however, in obtaining accurate information regarding this cOntroversy The opinion is widely held by laymen, that long distance rowing and running are very injurious to health: this opinion, of course. being based on casual observation of participants in such sports at the finish of com petitions The opinions of partici- pants in such competitions ;.nd sta tistics made bv experts from the life histories of participants after gradu- alton do not appear to bean out the opinion that such sports are harmful. litcie IS not enough accurate eFldence on either side. however. to justify the committee in making recommnda- tions rgarding this matter but the committee feels that more study should be given TO this question. es- pecially in view of the fact that com mon experience would indicate that any prolonged and violent exercise is harmful and that the statistics op- posing this view are as yet based upon the experience of q comparatively small number of persons"
