They meet at 2:45 every Friday afternoon and all the High School students belong to one of these societies and take part on the program at least once month. Then there is the Crescent Literary society. composed of the students of the Seventh and Eighth grades. They meet at the same hours and their work is supervised by the teachers.

 The ultimate end of all the train ing is to prepare the boys and girls more thoroughly for some specific. This is the outstanding reason for the School Savings Bank. The child is sent to school to receive instruc- tion in al the subjects which will benefit him in later years. >since the habit Of saving will be of Ia,me- diate value to any child in later lifs>. the Superintendent and School Board deemed | proper to establish a School Savings Bank in connection with the school, so that every child in school can De taught this great habit as much as possible. Four years experience with the Bank have proved the wisdom of this undertake ing.
 The pupils own the stock and re- ceive the dividends, which have run as high as % per cent, in addition to the passing of a good sum to the surplus. The amount of stock per mitted any student is only S10.00.

purpose, for there Is no better or ganized or more generally equipped public school in the entire state, than that of England. Here we find tried and experienced teachers employed to teach the various subjects in which they are best prepared, while the school buildings are exceptional Few towns in Arkansas are as we'll equipped with up-to-date modern school buildings. The Grammar School building erected in 1909 at a cost of S25,000 and the Morris High School building, erected in 1915 at cost of about S30,000, stand as monuments to the city, and depict the pride and interest of our public spirited, lberty-loving citizens in the cause of education.
 In addition to the regular grades required for graduation under the state laws, the England School offers the public the advantages of good Commercial Department, as we'll as Music, Art, Expression and Home Economics instruction of high grade Then the large campus surrounding the buildings make it possible for the building up of the physical side of the. boys and girls, for the encouragement of which the school Board has furnished large gymna- sium with all the equipment nee essary to give the students all kinds of good wholesome indoor exercise, as we'll as encouraging them to in- dulge in outdoor sports. Shower baths for both the girls and boys are also provided.

work is now in the efficient hands of W. L. Hoover, who has been post master for the past two years. He was employed as a railroad agent for six years, besides which he was con nected with the Bank of England for eight years, and has been prominent ly identified with the farming in- terests of the county for many years. He IS one of the old citizens, who seeing the opportunities in the future, remained in England and saw the town grow to its present impor- tant position.
 School System Excellent
 There is no one institution in England that calls for more com mendation than the splendid public school system, which is responsible in no small measure for the rapid and healthy growth of the town since it was first mapped out and put on the market. The people moving to Eng land were of that sterling class who put the improvement of their chil- dren above the sordid value of money, and the first thing they did after getting installed in their new homes, was to join the settlers al- ready there in their efforts to make their schools second to none in the state.
 There is ample evidence to prove that they have accomplished this

They have recently paid S100.00 on a new piano and aided in repairing the school swings to the extent of Ss5.00 in cash They have a regular sick room for the care of pupils where they supply them with remedies and first aid requirements. Dr. s. s. Beatty is the Chairman of the Board of Health in charge of this work.
 Active Red Cross Society
 The Red Cross Society of England is one of the very active units of that great organization and the ladies have raised large sums of money for that cause. The work is supervised by Mesdames J. P. Portis, R. L. Sawyer, G. Ayres and J. Ivey.
 Churches are Prosperous

Sherrill, who has been there for the past two years, has a large congregation, while the First Baptist Church, in charge of Rev. H. w. Jean, during his three years pastorate, has become a great power in the life of the community.
 The Methodists are strong in England and are now enjoying the pastoral care of Rev. R. R. Moore, who is completing his second year as pastor of that congregation.

One of the most important towns in Lonoke county, from com mercial, agricultural and home view point, is England, in the Gumwoods Township, which has grown into it's present size and importance faster than any other town in county, as it was only laid out and sold for settlement in the year 1888. The Cotton Belt railroad puts this fertile section into connection with the great throbbing business world on the outside, and in thousands upon thou sands of fertile acres, which were only few years ago covered with vast forests of giant trees, now yield immense crops of food crops, which are shipped all over the country.
 The history of England goes back to the time when Bob Hudgens, the first settler, hunter and fisherman, located three and one-half miles from England and established what was known as the Hudgens post office, where he for several years acted as postmaster and justice of the peace. For sometime after the establishment of the town of Eng land, the post office department re- fused to change the name to England on account of a ruling that no post office in the United States should bear the name of foreign country. i. The town was named in honor of Jno &C. England, who was one of the largest land owners adjoining the town, and through whose enterprise and determination, the location of England was really made fact.
 England was first put on the map of the United States through a sale of town lots in hastily constructed depot on January 30, 1889, following an extensive publicity campaign, which brought a large number of investors and prospective settlers to the site. About two-thirds of the original site was sold that day and every one pronounced the beginning of England "a decided success and 1rophesied that it would grow into the big busy town it now is.
 The first building in England was erected by J. K Brodie, who entered the mercantile business, but the town did not attract much attention m m re a ly until 1895. The population was only 200 in 1896; 1000 in 1900; l, ,600 in 1910; and a census taken now would probably show a population of between 2,500 and 5000 people.
 The unusual fertility of the coun- try in which England is located, at tracted men of brawn and brain, who settling here under adverse cir cumstances, were filled with the determination to convert this won derful country in the section of fine homes, productive farms and enter prising industries, and the people of England today owe their prestige to

these early settlers. They endured untold hardships to bring this great track under cultivation. The brakes and bayous afforded ample breeding places for mosquitoes and malaria and swamp fever were common. The land was rough and unbroken and in bad weather the roads were in- describable. It was often necessary to unhitch the mules, take the wagon apart and carry it in pieces over to firm ground, and the bodies of dead mules that had perished in the mud were not uncommon sights.
 But the work of the early settlers made the transformation evident to- day possible, for the roads are fine, school houses dot the outlying dis tricts, fine homes adorn the farms, mules are displaced by the best of autos, and they do not bog in the mud, as that has disappeared, while the town itself is one of the most modernly constructed in this section of the state.
 The progress of development has been steady and the original box car depot has been replaced with a modern, up-to-date brick station; the wooden store buildings with con- crete, glazed white and tile build ings; the old smoky lamps with electricity; mud walks with gran itoid; the dust in dry weather, with layers of road oil; and a lateral sys- tenn of drainage connected with the town property lines and sewerage system is now on the way. The fine pike roads extending out from Eng land offer the productive farmers great inducements to make that place their marketing center, while four first-class cotton gins, the larg est cotton seed oil mill in the state, and first-class flour and feed mill, the only one in the county, offer farmers added inducements.
 The town enjoys the advantages of city water works and an ice plant. while radiating in all directions from England is one of the richest farming sections in the United States if not in the world. Clear Lake, three miles west. of England, is one of the most picturesque sights in the country. It is five miles long, one-half mile wide, with a depth of from six to thirty-siX feet. This lake is stocked with game fish and afford an ideal resort for fishermen, boating and bathing. It is fed by springs and is clear and cold.
 England is "A miles from Little Rock, has one big flour mill, one oil mill, four churches, six automobile agencies, two newspapers, four cot ton gins with capacity of 200 bales per day, two hotels, two banks with combined capital and surplus of about $12O, 100000, two school build ings, the representative lodges of the country, one steam laundry, and numbers of other progressive busi-

Head of Emergency Fleet Corporation Back in the
 Steel Business

New York December S.-Charies M Schwab, whose resignation as director general of the emergency fleet corpora tion was accepted by President Wilson yesterday in a wireless message, Will return immediately to active participa- tion in the management of the Bethlehem Steel company, he announced at his home here tonight '
 'The emergency for which I entered the government service has passed MT Schwab said "The emergency fleet cor poration has been placed on a basis for economic construction rather than war time constructions My own affairs are of such magnitude that feel will be of greater service to the country there dur ing the period of reconstruction than would as director of the fleet corpora tion.
 Mr. Schwaht said that while he ex- pected 'some economic troubles during the period of reconstruction, he believed that period would be short and that the nation would emerge to greater indus trial development than ever before
 I'm going right ahead in the same optimistic and progressive spirit as in the past he declared.
 MT. Schwab expressed deep appreciation of the tribute President Wilson paid him in the message accepting his resignation and declared that had he failed in the task assigned him he would have had only himself to blame.
