H. H. MEYERS TO SPEAK
 AT MEETING TUESDAY

Harry H. Meyers of Little Rock, said to be Arkansas wittiest speaker, will speak at the meeting of the Con way Commercial Club on next Tues day night, the call for which was made by President Tom Davis today. MT Meyers has proved decidedly popular with Conway audiences on his pre- vious appearances here, and the club is most anxious for the full citizen ship of the city and of the county as far as possible, to attend the meeting
 It was the intention of the club when the meeting was called, to sub init some details of the anti-mosquito campaign to the club for action. May or W. D. Cole, however, stated that plans for the campaign have not been far enough developed to make definite announcement. An appropriation of $l 1000 was made by the city council for the support of the campaign, and Mayor Cole authorized to employ a supervisor who would devote his en- tire time to the work. Prof. E. E. Cordrey, head of the science depart ment at the State Normal, will have general direction of the work.

 A new section of the association, de voted entirely to the sugar indusry, will hold it's first sessions this year.

Mayor W. D. Cole says he received q good calling down by Dr. (. W. Garrison, state health officer, at Lit tie Rock Friday on account ot the news stories that had been sent from here to the effect that the city had completed arrangements for anti mos quito and sanitary campaign at co not to exceed $1,o00 Similar work being put on in other cities the sze of Conway, under the supervision of the state board of health, is costing from $3,00O to S4,O00, and pr. Gar rison told Mayor Cole inquiries are already reaching him asking why it is costing other towns three or four times as much as Conway.
 The explanation is, Mayor Cole said, that Conway is fortunate in se- curing without cost the services of a directing expert in the person of Prof. E. E. Cordrey of the State Normal faculty, and will incur only the ex- pense of the oil and labor of applying i. Other towns are having to pay S200 to S250 per month for expert super

PRISON LIFE IS
SUSTAINED BY
EATING Bread


Frances national appetite for
bread never was demonstrated
more forcibly than by the French
soldiers imprisoned during the
world war.
Given what might well be termed
starvation rations" by the enemy,
the first cry Of the captured Poilus
was for bread. Dome nous du
pain" (Give US bread, they begged
of their captors.
The British blockade, however,
had shut of Germany's grain sup
ply. forcing the nation to manufac-
ture a dark brown, heavy, pasty,
indigestible, unnutritious, bread.
Hence, it was not long before the
prisoners began making frantic. ap-
peals to the home folks for good
French bread.
So generous was the response
that the French government was
compelled finally to take the matter
in hand to insure bread being sent
to the prisoners with the minimum
delay and that it reached its desti-
nation in good condition.
Difficult Task.
The task was not an easy one. 1t
required approximately two weeks
to send bread and have it distribut-
ed to prisoners. During this period
ordinary bread became either
moldy or dried up to such an ex-
tent that II Was M longer nalat-
able.
Realizing the keen appetite of
Frenchmen for bread, its extensive
food value and that it would insure
captured patriots again possible
starvation. the French government
set every available scientific wheel
in motion to serve the perplexing
problem.
The result was that a genuine
discovery of a sealed package war
ranted to keep bread fresh for sew
eral months was made The dis

THE SEARCH1LGHT
The Mysterious Southpav.

What makes some persons left
handed? The question has been
extensively Investigated by Arthur
l.. Beeley, an anthropologist. He
finds that various scientists have
estimated the proportion of left
handed persons as being from two
to six per cent Of the wohle popu-
lation. Dozens of reasons have
been suggested why most persons
are right-handed. 1t has been
pointed out that primitive man al
ways carried his shield in his left
hand, thus protecting his heart,
and his weapon in his right. In
this way, it is argued, the whole
race got used to using its right
hand most actively. This would
not seem to account for the wom-
en-, however. It has also been sug-
gested that the way babies are car
ried on the right arm of the moth
er usually restricts the use of their
own left arms. 1t has also been
claimed that the part of the brain
which controls the blood supply
OF the right hand gets a better
blood supply than that which con-
trolls the left. A left-handed per-
SON, according to theory, would
simply be one in whom this con-
dition happened t. be reversed A
number of other reasons have been
suggested but none of them
proved. It remains a mystery why
most - are right-handed and
, still more of mystery why a few
of us are left-handed
