Wide Interest Shown In Work.
The wide interest taken in the WORE
of eradication has been evidenced by
the numerous requests received by the
department during the past fiscal yea
for international material for use IL
the infested areas Lack of funds has
bampered somewhat the department ;
campaign against barberry. 1t was
able, however, to supply large mum.
ber of posters, bulletins, circulars, and
other matter for distribution.
A survey to locate barberries was
begun in the larger cities because o.
the better means for spreading ihror'
nation. 1t was extended then to the
towns so that now nearly all clties
and towns having population OF ovei
200 have been surveyed. An intensive
survey of the entire rural area out
side of the cities and towns has been
begun. Already about 80 counties have
been covered, the survey reaching ev'
erv farmstead and brushy pastures
and woodlands in the entire area Ihis

A very important part OF TINS sur

the harmful barberry and all bushes
found should be eradicated so that
no roots remain to sprout. No seed

CENTRAL 10 OPEN
 SESSION SEPT. l5
MAXIMUM STUDENT BODY
President Campbell Especially Pleas ed with Strong Faculty of
 Conservatory.

Exercises opening the twenty eighth session of Central College will be held in the college auditorium on Wednesday morning, September 15, at 10:30 o'clock, it was announced to- day by President Doak s. Campbell. The exercises will be brief. A cor dial invitation is extended to all friends of the college to be present at that time, Mir. Campbell said. The vanguard of the students is expected to arrive here Monday, while the en- tire number probably will have reach ed the city by Wednesday. Mir. Campbell and others of the college staff are busy this week preparing for the opening.
 On account of the limited quarters available, Mr. Campbell said that no canvass of any nature had been made for students, but that reservations already made assure the college of student body of maximum size. With : the completion of the new dormitory sion, more accommodations will be at the disposal of students and can vass will be made next summer
 To expedite enrolment and classi- fication of students, those residing in Conway are asked to report at the college Monday for classification. With this much of the work of organ ization completed before the arrival of nonresident students, the college staff hopes to consume little time in ] forming all classes and beginning work.
 The literary faculty for the year maintains the high standards main- tained in previous years, Mir. Camp bell said, while the conservatory fac ulty is of unusual strength and dis tinction. Major H. w. B. Barnes, formerly a music director with the expeditionary forces and musician and composer trained in European and American schools, will head the conservatory faculty as director and teacher of piano and organ. Other teachers of piano will be Mrs. Clara Rice Bolls and Mrs. Lorraine Me Cauley Little, both members of the faculty last year, and Miss Mary Christian Sailing. Mrs. Patty Reville Deal will be teacher of voice, and Mrs. Sallie Harton Johnston will teach violin.
 Announcement already has been made of the teachers of art and ex- pression. Miss Marie Merriam, a postgraduate student in Columbia University studios, will have charge of the art department Miss Mary Glenn Philips will be teacher of ex- pression and public speaking. Under a new conservatory rule, all music pu- pills will be required to appear in bi- monthly recitals.
 | Construction of the new dormitory will in no way intervene with student activities during the session, Mr. Campbell said. Lots on the south and west of the main building, bought during the summer, have been leveled and cleared as a playground and phy- sical culture will be more strongly en- phasized than during previous years.
 rom every angle, the college staff has made great preparations for the comfort and well being of the student body, and the colleges best year is confidently expected to result.
