 The University of Arkansas forces will get back of the move ment for lne proposed centennial celebration in Little Rock, and do ali they can to make it a sue cess. President John C. Futrell has written James A. Ginoochio, chairman of the Program Com mittee as follows.
 T have your letter asking the assistance of the University for ces in preporing an agricultural exhibition the Arkansas Gen. tennial to be held in Little Rock next November.
 It seems to me very fitting that the one hundred tn anniver, sary of the state should be pro- Lerly celebrated, and since agri- culture is, and must, remain for many years. the principal in- dusiry of tEe state, it seems espe- cially fitting that an agricultural exhibit, representing all Arkan- sas, should be one of the many features of the celebration.
 The University will gladly take part in preparing this ex- hibit and will ask the County Agents and other Extension workers in ail parts of the state to give all assistance possible. ''

Queer Coincidence.

One of a party whereof Charles Darwin was member was speaking of the earthquake of Tacahuano, in northern Chile, on which occasion the father had lost all his property and the narrator himself had barely es- caped with his life, Then, writes Dar- win. there ensued a curious coinci- dence. A German, one of the party, got up, saying he would never sit in a room in those countries with the door shut. as, owing to his having done so he once nearly lost his life at Sopiapo Accordingly, he opened the door. No sooner had he done so than he cried out. Here 1t comes againw and an- other shock ensued. The whole party escaped,

Farming Indl stry Has
 Made Great Progress

In the first hundred years of Arkansas history no industry in the State has made such rapid progress or grown to such pro portions as that of agriculture. From that small beginning. when the territorial pioneer planted in the wilderness his first spatch of corn, the wealth of the Arkansas farmer has increased to $500, GOO, .0)0, and the annual ""production of c ops now aggregates more than $500, 900, GOO. It is there fore befitting that the farmers should have an impor ant part in the celebration of the States Centennial anniversary Eto be held at Little Rock, November 1I22, and it is gratifying that the promoters of this entertainment should provide as one of tie chief features an agricultural fair at which the different count ies of the State can make display of their products
 Centennials are important events. They are the monument al mllestones of history where the forces of civilization may pause for time, look backward upon the pasr and survey with a wider vision the horizon of the future. Pennsylvania celebrated it's one hundrelh anniversary with great centennial at Phia- delphia in 1876, the influence of which left a lasting effect upon the nation. Why should not Ark ansas awaken the world to a realization of it's material great
 neas at the Centennial at Little
 Rock this year.
 Every county should be repre- sented with a complete exhibit at the fair. It is Understood that the expense of transporting the exhibits will be defrayed and that attractive cash prizes for the county, community sand individ- ual exhibits, with additional pre- minums on the vayiQuo farm and orcharl ] products. Such d.. dis play will be ore worth whi To make success of this county S, participa ion n the Centennial [ if every citizen should cooner- ate to the ful es. ex ent with the county chairman and his commi : ee and begin cary to collecs ex- hibits for the county disp'ay ] The farme 8 < f Arkansas ca make the Centennial celebratio, a valuable mediam for adverlis ing the State and prcmoting notter agricultural.

Seattle to-day-the second day OF the
general strike-showed that newspapers
have suspended publication, theatres and
schools have closed, street ears have
ceased operating, res lurants have shut
down and shipping is being diverted to
