clock, other than it's unusually ar
tistic appearance and the perfection
of its construction and mechanism, is
the complete set of Westminster
chimes with which it is equipped
These ring every quarter hour and
may be heard practically as far as
the clock may be seen.
The big clocks are operated by cleo
tricity from master clock inside the
building, in the main banking room
This is an especially handsome struc-
ture of bronze and plate glass con-
struction, with a 12-inch dial, and
guaranteed to keep practically per-
feet time. Every minute the hands of
the big clock are sent ahead one min
ute by electricity governed by the
master clock within, the connection
between the two instruments being
perfect and insuring correct time on
the large clocks on the outside as we'll
on tn master clock inside.
The clock is attached to the front
of the bank building at sufficient
elevation to be plainly visible from all
parts of the main street. The clock
is feet in height by 2 II feet in
width, of dark bronze, with copper
hood at top and bottom. Both faces
of the clock are alike, the dial be-
ing surmounted by the words, Bank
of Conway in large illuminated let
ters. This is provided by sheet of
copper in which are cut the letters,
laid over pure pearl white glass, with
crystal plate glass on the outside
The dials of the clock are "a inches
in diameter, on pearly white glass,
with crystal glass on the outside.

ELOQUENT
IN PRA|S|NC FLAG
NORMAL, ELKS EXERCISE
Flag Day Observed with Joint Out
door Program on State Normal
School Lawn.

Flag day, the one hundred and forty
third anniversary of the day on which
Betsy Ross designed the American flag
was fittingly observed with splendid
exercises held on the Normal lawr
last night, under the joint auspices OF
the State Normal School and the Con-
way lodge of Elks. Virgil C. Petite
of Little Rock, who has won a wide
reputation as a speaker on such &C.
casions, delivered the address last
night. His address, highly patrio-
tic tribute to the flag and a recital
of its career from Bunker Hill to the
Argonne, was received with great en-
thusiasm by the audience an dtoday
was praised as one of the best pat
riotic orations heard here.
AS the platform from which the
program was presented, officers of
the State Normal effectively utiliz-
ed the steps at the main entrance of
Doyne Hall. Large electric lights
placed above the steps FURNISHED the
illumination, and a large American
flag hanging over the entrance sup
piled the background The flag was
the army colors which draped the
casket of Porter Galyon when his re-
mains were returned from France for
interment in the soil of his native coun-
tr. H. L. McAlister, head of the cor
respondence department, and who
largely prepared the excellent pro-
gram, presided.
Opening the joint service, Prof. H.
F. Hess led in community singing,
first of America and then of other
popular airs. DR.. W. S. Hammer, one
of the officers of the Elks lodge, then
read THE History of the Flag" taken
from the Elks ritual for flag day. He
was followed by Miss Pauline New
bern, who read effectively James
Whitcomb Riley's poem, THE Name
of Old Glory" Mr.. Pettie's Grafton
was followed by the singing of the
Star Spangled Banner" under the
leadership of Mr.. Hess.
Calling the flag the emblem of all
liberty loving peoples, Mr.. Petite paus-
ed in his splendid address to hail it
also as the foe of anarchy, Bolshe-
vism and agitators of whatever des-
cription. He declared that all Ameri-
can citizens should see to it that the
foes of law and government are driv-
en- from these shores, failing which
the nation will have broken faith with
those who made the supreme sacrifice
in the world war His address at all
times was remarkable for its effective
delivery and high literary excellence.
At its conclusion Mr.. McAlster ex-
pressed his belief that the audience
would class it as the best patriotic
Grafton delivered in Conway, where
orators grow on bushes"

CASE OF DANZIG
CONSIDERED
Military Control BY Pol
and Recommended to
Council
POLAND WANTED
SUCH A SCHEME
Because Necessary to In
sure Transportation of
Materials to Poland

Geneva, Dec 10 (By the Associated
Press Military control of Danzig by
Poland has been recommended to the
council of the league Of nationS<in u
report from Che military commission
Such control wasuequested by the Pol
ish government some time ago on the
ground that it was necessary to insure
the transport of food, munitions and
raw materials to Poland.
The council has decided to refer the
report, along with n suggestion by Wis
count Ishii of Japan that a military
commission study the best means to
defend the town, to the high commits
sioner.
Separate action by the premiers OF
France and Great Britain on matters
before the assembly Of the league Is
made the subject of sharp comment by
the committee on admission Of new
states. Lord Robert Cecil representa-
tive Of South Africa; n w. Rowell Of
Canada and Dr. Nansen of Norway
agree in crhicizing the action Of those
governments in announcing policies re-
garding such questions as the admis-
son of Armenia through other channels
than their representatives in the as
sembly meeting who are charged with
such problems.
Rene Viviani OF France, who has
been said to be most particularly an
moved by the declaration of the Brit
ish and French premiers that Armenia
should not be admitted to the league
was absent from the assembly meet
ing to-day. Comment on the incident
continued TO be one of the predominant
features of the meeting, the opinion
being expressed that if powers desire
to continue to treat such questions in
the old form of diplomatic action they
are not ready for the league of ma.
tions.
Leon Bourgeois Of France has pre-
sented a report from the committee on
an international court. The plan final
Nv adopted by the committee differs
from Ellhu Roots plan chiefly in the
fact that jurisdiction of the tribunal
would be voluntary instead of obIiga-
tory.

mick watched proceedings to-day from

NEW CONSTITUTION
FOR BASEBALL MADE
But 1t Has to Be Ratified By Leagues
Before 1t Goes Into
Effect.

New York, Dec l3.-Baseball lead
ers to-day were enthusiastic over the
agreement reached here yesterday by
representatives of the major and mi
nor leagues, changing the constitution
of the national game. The proposals
agreed upon at meeting marked by
harmony must be accepted by plenary
sessions of the leagues involved before
they become the law governing the
sport. Ratification is regarded as mere
ly matter of form.
The National league probably will
act upon the agreement at its annual
meeting here tomorrow. The Ameri
can league will pass judgment in Chi
cago on Friday, The National Associa
ton of Minor Leagues will hold a spe-
eial meeting in Chicago on Jan. 10 to
take action.
The draft question is the only impor-
tant clause upon which there is not
unanimous opinion. The smaller organ
ization may settle this as they wish al
their Chicago session.

fellow over in Orange sent us letter
suggesting that Bess and Jess include
Sheep Lined Coat in dads Christmas

Well pass the thought on to the

In his letter, the Orange resident
said he purchased Sheep Lined Coat

already given him the satisfaction of
the cost
'This coat" he wrote, lis the best
thing that ever covered my back. I'm
just delighted with it. If my girl gives
me Christmas present of one, I'll pass
my Sheep Lined on to my own dad"
Which just makes us believe that
Sheep Lined Coat would make lots of
fellows happy at Christmas time.
