 Our attention has been called tC the fact that Mrs. M. P. Aubrey and Mrs. w. M. Harrell served on the committee which helped work up the health survey published last week. If your boys do not get home in time for supper these days, don't blame the teachers. They are not kept in; they are playing marbles We allow them to play on the school ground until five o'clock, but they go elsewhere and finish. We wonder how boys have so much spare time.
 The pupils of room eight are pass ing into the ninth grade. They have about finished their work in grade eight.
 Mrs. Traylor is filling Miss Mary Hamilton's place this week. Miss Mary expects to return soon. We have been obliged, for lack of support, to close down the cafeteria for the present. The weather got too warm for soup, and most of the pupils prefer to go home to eat a mere sandwich lunch.
 The vocational suryey attempted in the fall and abandoned for lack of sufficient response, revealed one fact that our patrons do not know much about their school.
 We earnestly urge parents to per- init their children to buy tickets to the Art Exhibit to be held here next week. The cost will be but a trifle but the good to the children will be considerable. Tickets will be on sale soon, and we solicit liberal patron age from all friends of the school.

BARACA CLASS REPORT.

One month has passed with our new
 grading system. We feel sure that it is going to prove a success. One thing about it is that every fellow can see, when he gets his card at the end of the month, just what he is doing. He knows it is correct because he does the grading himself. Let every fellow keep his grade at the top. If we have not done our best let us do it this month. The chief thought in the les son was the selfshness of the people in seeking after material rather than spiritual benefit. When Jesus said, q am the bread of life" He was talk ing to hungry people. If the hun gry are to be filled they must seek God.

NATION WIDE RAIL STRIKE IMMINENT READY FOR POSSIBILITIES Employees Say They Have Waited Long Enough for Adamson
 Law Decision.

New York, March 13.-Persistent reports were current in railroad cir cles here yesterday that country wide strike would result if satis- factory agreement is not reached at the conference on the question of the eight-hour working day to be held here Thursday between the railroad managers and representatives of the four brotherhoods of trainmen. It was learned that reports were sent to the railroad presidents by agents of the managers, stating that plans had been laid by the brother hoods to begin such strike Satur- day night in the event their demands are not met at the conference.
 Inquiry at railroad headquarters failed to bring out the source of the reports, although it was learned defi- nitely that such information had been sent them.
 This information said the brother hood leaders consider they have wait ed reasonable time for the supreme court decision on the Adamson law and they are going to begin hostili- ties in few days" as one railroad representative put it.
 The plans of the union leaders, the report said, called for a progressive strike beginning Saturday night and looking to a complete tie-up by the following Wednesday night.
 The decision on the constitution ality of the Adamson law was again postponed yesterday by the United States superem court.

REVENUE DEFICIT
 IS ONLY S200,000
NORMAL BELIEVED SAFE
Appropriations Exceed Estimated Revenue So Little that VetOes
 Will Not Be Heavy

While Governor Brough has reiter- ated promise previously made by him that the legislative appropria- tions will be reduced by executive veto to a point where they will not exceed the revenue, friends of the Arkansas State Normal School be- lieve that the funds allowed that in- stitution by the legislature are safe
 from the governors pruning knife. Governor Brough repeatedly during the recent session of the legislature indicated that he regarded the appro- priation for main building for the
 Normal School an absolute necessity and is said to have used his influence with the budget committee to have the item for this purpose increased
 from $60,000, the amount at first agreed upon by the committee, to $100,000, the minimum amount for which it is believed an adequate building could be constructed
 A further hopeful indication that the Normal appropriation will not be disturbed is in the statement given out at the capitol that the appropria- tions made by the legislature exceed the anticipated revenue by only about $200,000. More than million dol lars was vetoed by Governor Dona- ghey during his term of office and two years ago Governor Hays vetoed about $6OO,0OO.
 According to Little Rock news paper correspondent Governor Brough has been spending considerable time with Chairman Harrison of the budget committee since the adjourn ment of the legislature and they have been carefully examining the various items in the appropriation bills, with view of ascertaining the items that could be vetoed. It was discovered that the total appropriations made by the legislature amounts to $3,439,- 663.20; while the total income for the next two years will amount to $3,21O,O00 in round figures. This ex- cess of $2O0,0O0 will be pruned by the governor from the various appro- priation bills. This can easily be done, according to Chairman Harri- son, without crippling any depart ment of the state government.
 The appropriation bills must be signed by March 2S, or within 20 days from the adjournment of the legislature.
