 The play was instructive as we'll as entertaining. It was we'll for all those who heard it, for in a striking way we were shown the carless way in which we deal with fire haz- ards.
 The Arkansas Teachers Association met in Little Rock November 11th. 18th. and 18th.
 The general meetings were held in the Liberty Hall. There were over 4,100 teach CTS who attended.
 They enjoyed hearing some of the best educated people of our state and other states lecture.
 They had the pleasure of hearing Governor Harding of Iowa and MT. McRae, Gov ernor-elect of our state.
 Among the most interest ing lectures were those given by Mir. M. G. Brumbaugh and Mir. M. P. Shawkey, State Superintendent of Public In- struction of West Virginia.
 Each department had a different place to meet and to didscuss their work.
 The McCrory teachers were almost one hundred per cent in attendance and got many new ideas. They have come back to McCrory with much enthusiasm in their work.
 The time has come when every one realizes the impor- tance of having athletics in connection with school work. It develops the mind as we'll as the body. The McCrory High School is not behind in this, and more interest is being shown in athletics this year than has ever been before. Football and basketball teams have been organized with the children in the grades as we'll as in the high school, and it is easy to see the improvement they have made.

MOST CHILDREN
IN MOLINE SCHOOLS
ARE UNDERWEIGHT

That the majority of pupils in
the grade schools of Moline are far
below normal weight was shown
by the annual report Of the school
nurse recently completed. The per-
centage ranged from II in Carr to
43 in Grant, percentages based
upon the United States government
tables of normal weights and meas
ures. Lack Of equipment and time
prevented following up this study
but in the Willard school where 40
per cent Of the pupils were four
pounds under weight this figure
had been reduced to 81 per cent
at the close of the school year.
The reports Of the nurse and
dentist this year show that children
with defective teeth and eyes are
being well take ncare Of by the
schools.

Mrs. Harding, who was present

positive remarks about the high
cost of living.
Senator Harding said: I'VE used
to wait until October for water

they acknowledged to a strenuous
week. The senator engaged near
ly every minuate of twenty-fouT
hours in endless conferences and
Mrs. Harding, as she confessed to-
day. was busy doping out her hus-
bands chances Of getting the NOM
