AUTHORIZES DEFICIENCY
 FOR COUNCIL OF DEFENSE

Little Rock, Feb. 12.-Gov. Brough yesterday afternoon issued a procla- nation authorizing a deficiency of $25,000 for the use of the State Coun- cil of Defense, provided that it be and is now understood and agreed that Hon. Hogan Oliver, state audi tor, will withhold a similar amount unexpended of the appropriation made by the 41st General Assembly for the National Guard and the military de- partment of the State of Arkansas" :"
 The governors proclamation states that "this fund of $25,000 is to be available for the State Council of Defense for the purpose of promot- ing field activities, along patriotic lines, the coordination of it's patriotic activities, and the dissemination among the people of Arkansas of in formation vital in connection with the prosecution of the present war"
 "The State Council of Defense is of inestimable value to the government in cooperation with the National Council of Defense and in the CO., ordination of the patriotic endeavors of the state," says Gov. Brough, land the issuance of this proclamation will assure definite methods of financing the work of the council and the var ious county councils, and will enable them to carry out some very far-reach ing plans of war work. Practically every state in the Union whose Gen. eral Assembly has convened has made a liberal appropriation for this work, varying from S4,000,000 in Pennsyl- vania to S500,000 in New Mexico, and in a number of states whose legisla- lures have not met large sums have been raised by voluntary subscription, notably in Indiana where $100,000 was raised"

EXTENSION WORK IN VIRGINIA

The following letter from Miss
Welsh will be read with interest
by her many friends:
Lewiston. Pa. July I.
Dear Friends
We have just returned from
our trip to Jackson County,
West Virginia. and thought some
Of you might be interested in know
ing little about it, We made our
headquarters at the homes o. two
Of our students. Gay Duke. Of
Frozen Camp. and Fanny Carney.
Of Given. From these centers we
went out, making visits from house
to house and speaking in four
different churches. Miss Bower
sox spoke on education in general
and urged the people to send their
boys and girls to school: Miss Welsh
on "Berea and What is has to Offer;
and Miss True on "Woman's Share
iu Helping to Win the War. by
Sacrifice. Saving and Substitution in
the Use Of Food" A special program
for the young people. consisting Of
music. short speeches. readings and
games. was prepared for week
evenings.
We were very much gratified by
the cordiality with which we were
everywhere received. We had
three fine students in Berea as the
result Of our last years trip and
their good success and appreciation
Of what Berea had done for them
added much TO the interest and
hospitality with which we were
received. We called in the home Of
Clifford Parsons. who graduated !
from our Foundation Department /
this June. and found his people de-
lighted with the progress he had
made.
Stock-raising is the main industry |
and the cattle feeding on the many |
hills made the country look pros
porous. The people need an OPP !
portunity for education beyond the
country school. however. and we
feel that this is a good field for
further work. and that any Berea
worker will find a warm welcome.
