SHOULD FIX PRICES OF LIVING
Specialist Says That Congress Should
 Fix all Prices of Commodities.

Fayetteville, Nov. 27,-(SpeciaD - That Congress should settle the cost of living problem by adopting the Irwin Fisher plan of fixing constant average for all future prices of Ameri- can goods, and make the value of the dollar vary, was the gist of a lecture before the Science Club of the Univer- sity of Arkansas by Dr. C. L. Stuart, head of the department of economics and sociology at the University
 Dr. Stuart said that to vary the value of the gold dollar, gold coins must be kept out of circulation and nothing but 'yellow-backs'' used. Then he stated, if the average of commodi- ties drops below or rises above the chosen level, cores bonding change in the mint price of gold would pro duce the correction.

 For instance, the Woman's Train ing School of Louisville, Ky, which has for it's object the training of young women in all branches of Christian service, is fostered by the Baptist women of the South as a whole, as are the Margaret Fund established for the purpose of pro- viding education in Baptist colleges for the children of foreign mission aries on fields where ample educa- tiOnal facilities in English are not ble-and the Fannie E. s. Heck Memorial, which is a loan fund for aiding weak but worthy churches in building adequate houses of worship. In addition to the Fannie F. s. Heck Memorial, which is supported by all the South eTn Baptist women. a large number of special memorials are maintain ai by the women of the individual states, the proceeds of these me mGr.al5 likewise going to aid weak churches in erecting houses of wor- ship. Georgia leads in the number of memorials with S2, wlile South Carolina is a close second, with so.
 Throughout the South each year the women take a Christmas offer ing for the Lott,e Moon Fund, which is applied to missions in China, while the annual thank of iering, taken in the spring, goes to t.e Home Mission Schools in the mountains of the South. Already the Baptist women of the Southern Baptist Convention, through the channels of their organization. have given $2995, ,49222 to foreign mis. sons and $1,S24,072.43 to home mis- sions. The total value of the per manent property owned by the W. NJ. Uo including the Baltimore head quarters and the training school at Louisville. is in excess of $500, 900.
 Build Hospitals and Schools.
 Indicative of the character of work which the women of the SC eral sta , are doing independently of the general organization and of the other states. those of Georgia were largely instrumental in the erection of hospital for women at Hwan. ghien, China, of which Dr. T. w. Ayers is the superintendent; they built and maintain the Mary p. Will. lingham School at Blue Ridge, Ga, for the training of the girls of the
