Our city. among many others, through It's executive officer, has forbitted the so- cialists the use of the streets for pulp lie meetings My conviction is that such action is wrong. Man has the right to freedom of speech, which ought not to be curtained except in times of great national danger This is democracy's s priceless possession.
 But If you grant that our action is right. then the further question arises.

GAIN IN STUDENTS
 BY STATE NORMAL
ENROLMENT MOVES UP
Still 9 Counties of State Having No Students at School-Further
 Gains Expected.

Comparatively low attendance fig ures registered at the State Normal School at the opening of the winter term, due to the shortage of teachers and reports circulated that boarding ard rooming accommodation in Con- way would be high this fall, are grad ually being overcome, and the enroll ment now IS only about p short of the total reached at the same time in 1919. The total enrolment of 269 represents considerable gains since the first two weel:5 of the term, and strengthens the l.Io hat still larg- CT figures will 4e ea-led with the opening of the midWin.l, tenn.
 By comparison, the scIoo. aas 269 students as contrasted with 353 en- rolled at the summer session. The summer enrolment represented all but 15.counties of Arkansas, showing how well the school is serving the state as it's territory. Only 50 counties, how ever, have students at the present term. Enrolment figures for both terms were tabulated by President B. w. Torreyson and H. L. McAlister, head of the correspondence depart ment.
 One of the conditions retarding en- rollment, the reports in regard to living costs here, has been generally removed by statements given news paper publication. The second condi- tion, the shortage of teachers, is still acutely felt in Arkansas and yet ex- erts strong influence on the Normal's enrolment. The table of attendance, by counties, for both the summer and winter term, is as follows:

AMERICANS ABROAD
 IN RED CROSS WORK
United States Citizens Far Away Enthusiastic Members of the
 Fourteenth" Division.

Among the most enthusiastic and energetic members of the American Red Cross are those citizens of the United States who live outside the continental boundaries of their country sons and daughters of the Stars and Stripes residing at the far corners of the earth.
 These people compose the Insular and Foreign Division of the parent or ganization generally known as the Fourteenth" Division, which has jurisdiction of all territory outside the country proper; that Is, Alaska, Porto Rico, Hawaii, Virgin Islands, the Philippines, Guam. and even the is- land of Tap, which came under our flag as a result of the world war. For the year 1920 this division reported 3O,809 paid up members.
 The main object of this division is to give our citizens everywhere the op- p0rtunity to participate in the work of the organization which stands for the best national ideals Americans in far places intensely lo"al and pa- triotic, treasure their membership in the Red Cross as the outward ex- pression of their citizenship. It is an- other tie to the homeland and to each other There are chapters of this division in Argentine, Bolivia, Brazil, Canal zone, Chile, China, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, England, France, Guam,. Guatemala, Haiti Hawaii, Honduras, Japan, Manchuria, Netherlands, Nica- ragua. Paraguay, Peru. Philippines, Porto Rico. Siberia. Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Syria, Turkey, Uruguay, Venezuela and Virgin Islands.
 During the war these scattered members of the Red Cross contrib uted millions in money, and millions of dollars worth of necessary articles for the men in service, and sent many doctors and nurses to France. At the same time they carried on an excel lent Home Service in their respective communities for the families of those who had gone to war, and in some re- gions gave large sums of money and immeasurable personal service 10 the relief of disaster and disease victims.
 The division is now establishing service clubs in foreign ports for the benefit of sailors in the American Mer- chant Marine, making plans to aid Americans in trouble in foreign lands and completing arrangements for giv- ing immediate adequate relief in case of disaster.
 It is the Fourteenth Divisions part in the great Peace Time program of the American Red Cross.

SUBSCRIPTION PLAN
 IN SCHOOLS IS DOOMED

Little Rock, Oct. 26.-When the North Little Rock public schools re- opened Monday only 209 pupils out of total of 2,800 in the district re- ported to attend school under tAe new subscription plan. At the high school building only 166 out of a total of 700 reported for study.
 Charles Ryan, an anti-Gardner man, appearing at the high school, declared the schools could not be run with such poor attendance and that the board would not be responsible for the teachers salaries.
 The teachers, however, announced they would take their respective classes and operate them on a sub- scription basis, taking the tuition fees themselves and isuing receipts to the individual pupils. It was freely pre- dicted that the schools could not be operated on the plan put into force today, and unless the attendance largely increases the schools could not continue longer than this week.

RED CROSS ASSISTS
 DISABLED VETERANS

The American Red Cross Is carrying disabled World War veterans receiving treatment in United States Public Health hospitals, and those being train ed through agencies of the Federal Board for Vocational Education.
 In each of the Public Health Service hospitals Red Cross workers devote their time to the general welfare of the service men from the day they enter the receiving ward until they are discharged. After the soldiers dis charge the Red Cross continues it's friendly service through the Home Service Section in his own community. The Red Cross maintains a convales- cent house at all of the hospitals, where patients can amuse themselves after they are well enough to be up and around. Parties and picture shows in the wards are also furnished, with occasional excursions when convales- cence comes.
 Great service has been rendered by the Red Cross in mental cases in iden- tifying those who have appeared in state hospitals for the insane, and help | ing them secure compensation due from | the Bureau of War Fisk Insurance. In the Federal Boards various dis | trict offices the Red Cross worker, act | ing with the Home Service Section, makes necessary loans to the men, ar ranges suitable living conditions, helps collect evidence and supply facts to the Board, assists in appealing cases" and settles various personal difficulties for the men. The workers also follow up and aid all men who discontinue train ing.
 The Red Cross agents find men Host" to the Board, help clear up delayed cases and aid the college counselors Tn their friendly work with the men. Many Red Cross chapters have set up recreation facilities, and In some in- stances living clubs, so these victims of war may have attractive surround ings and the fun which must go with effective school work.
 To the American Red Cross Institute for the Blind near Baltimore, Md, more th1n half of all the Americans blinded in the World War have come for training The Institute, through the Red Cross, long ago conducted an exhaustive industrial survey to deter mine the vacations for which blind men could bs fitted. AS a result it is putting forth well trained men equip ped to meet the social, civic and eco homie requirements of their respective communities.

FARM SERVICE UP
 AT QUORUM COURT

As has been the case for several years part, the question of expenditure of county funds for the support of farm and home demonstration will be the issue before the county quorum or levying court when it holds it's an- nual session Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock at the courthouse. The ma jority held last year by justices favor ing demonstration will most likely rule the court at its 1920 session tomorrow and the two appropriations will pas and then be referred to the county judge for approval or disapproval. Citizens interested in the maintainence of the excellent service rendered the county by County Agent T. M. Will Hams and Miss Ella Posey, are very anxious to have the full number of justices of the peace attend the court meeting. Although the hour of meet ing is set at 10 o'clock, it probably will be II before the court is organized and undertakes business.
