 Those who sure to be bound by custom than others are those who directly perform the acts which be changed
 is quite easy somebody standing outside system to suggest changes but it is another get those with in the system to accept those changes.
 The editorials about the year school which were y intended to the question for dscuson brought in good deal of criticism friendly some of unfriend ly, but all of it useful and helpful.
 Most teachers do not approve of 300 day school year. without exception all who have been heard from think the school is ENTIRELY FOO SHORT most of them think that the teaching day is too ho especially older children.
 The teachers concerned longer hours are considered about the hours they would work the saion they would receive.

 A hundred bodies are scattered through the railroad yards in this vicinity. Eighteen dead revolution t ists are lying in station steps where they shot this morning.
 Officials of the All-Russian govern ment are holding four hundred pris- oners, including many railroad work CTS.
 The government losses in the fight ing are unknown, their dead having been removed Occasional wounded soldiers and civilians continue to ar rive at the American Red Cross emer- gency hospital.

BELMONT OFFICERS
 CLUB BURNED MONDAY

Little Rock, Jan. 13.-The Officers Club at Belmont burned with an esti- mated loss of $45,0OO about 5 o'clock Monday morning. Mrs. A. M. Parker and her daughter, Miss Jessie Parker who were in the building at the time, escaped with serious injuries, and it was stated that other occupants of the club received minor injuries. w. G. Hutton said Monday at noon, that the origin of the fire had been traced to a defective furnace.
 Tie fire department promptly re. sponded but the flames had gained such headway that it was impossible to save the building. The firemen were hampered by the low water pres sure.
 The Officers Club was built short iy after the completion of Camp Pike and has been the center of social ac- tivitias for the officers of the camp It was largely patronized by the resi- dents of Little Rock, many of Whom, were members.
 The building was insured for about $2O,OOO, according to MI. Hutton. So- cial activities will probably he held temporarily at least at the Belmont hotel, it was announced.

As your gov ernor, l am delighted to report that at the end of the first fiscal year July i, 1918, there was cash bal ance in the treasury of $1SS, S,253,O6, which is more than sufficient to care for all unvouchered claims against the general revenue fund. How splendid showing has been made is revealed in the following, which illustrates the condition or our general revenue fund since 1910:
 General fund balance July 1, 1910, $20.S20.4S. E 7 "General fund balance July ', 1912. $2 S25S5.
 General fund balance July 1, 1914, $12,174.S0.
 General fund balance July l, 1916, $1S0.51.
 General fund balance July l, l9lS, $16 .S20.06.
 General fund balance January |, 1919, $455 66026.
 q feel that this magnificent show ing can be attributed to three things: First. the note issue, which put Ar kansas on a cash basis, where she has remained since the deficit was eliminated by the proceeds from the $750,000 note issue; second, the masnifcent spirit Of cooperation manifested on the part of our var1- GUS department heads n conserving their appropriations, and, third, the moral effect produced 'Dy the crea- tiom of an auditorial department, which has not only kept an eagle eye on the states finances, but has ai- ready made an audit of the finances of several counties.
