SLIGHT DECREASE
 IN NOVEMBER TAX
FOR SUPPORT OF SCHOOL
$. o. s. Receipts Fall About S1OO Be- low Those of Preceding Month,
 According to Monthly Report.

Receipts from the sales and luxury
 tax for the support of the Conway public school for the month of No vember, which have just been con-
 piled, fell about $100 short of the pre- ceding month of October and are practically the same as those for the month of September. Several of the firms collecting the taxes turned in nice increases over the preceding month, but in the majority of cases small decreases were shown, owing to a smaller volume of business dur ing the month. A decrease in the re- turns from the Grand theatre was explained by the fact that virtually only about half of the month of nor maj picture business is represented. The theatre was dark two nights and on three other nights was used for students shows when no school tax was collected. On seven other nights during November high-priced films were shown, naturally reducing in numbers the attendance.
 From July 15, when the collection of the s. o. s. tax was inaugurated, until December l, period of four and one-half months, total of $3,- 597.73 has been collected, an average of $799.36 per month. This falls few dollars month short of the es- timated total returns of $10,O0O year, but the tax really did not be- come well established until August l, so that the period should be count ed four months.
 The collections for the month of November, with those of the preced- ing month for comparison, are pub lished below:

FORMER CONWAY MAN
 PUBLISHES HIS POEMS

The Log Cabin Democrat acknowl- edges with thanks receipt of an au- tographed copy of a volume of poems just published by a former Conway young man, M. E. Dunaway of Little Rock. The book is entitled "The Phil osophy of an Arkansas Farmer and Other Poems," and contains 30 se- lections of entertaining verse written by the author, as he says, as a pleas ant pastime, usually at the close of busy days work, and are mainly those for which his friends have most frequently requested copies. The po- ems are all optimistic and cheerful in their sentiment, the meter and rythm are good and there will eb found among them passages of high literary value. Many of Mr. Dunaway's boyhood friends in Conway will doubtless de- sire to obtain a copy of his work, which may be obtained from the pub fishers, the Arkansas Writer Publish ing Company of Little Rock.

w. J. MORROW.

w. J. Morrow, aged 67, former To- cal merchant, died yesterday morning at the family residence, 115 Arch street, Little Rock, and the remains will be brought here Monday morn- ing for interment Monday afternoon in the Stone cemetery, 2 1-2 miles north of Conway. The funeral will be at o'clock Monday afternoon from the Pence undertaking establishment On account of the distance which rela- tlyes must travel to reach here, it was decided to delay the funeral until the time stated above.
 MT. Morrow had been resident of Conway continuously up to the time of his recent removal to Little Rock. He was engaged in several business enterprises here. Surviving him are his wife; four sons, Dale of Atlantic, Iowa; Ward of Conway; and R. R. W, and Edward J. Morrow of Little Rock; sister, Mrs. Ann McGranahan of New Hall, Iowa; and two brothers, E. H. Morrow of Mount Vernon, Iowa, and John Morrow of Joplin, Mo. His relatives in Iowa and Missouri will leave Saturday and expect to reach here Sunday night or Monday morn- ing.

SOX HURLFRLE
 AMERICAN LEAGUE
(By the Aa~ssated Praasy

Chicago, Dec. 23.-Pitching honors
 for the season went to Urban c. Fla
 Der, the White Sox veteran, who al
 lowed but PAS earned runs for each
 nine innings. Faber worked 331 in- ! nings before he was laid out with an injurey and fewer runs were scored by opponents against Chicago when he pitched than were earned off the second best regular, George Mogridge, of Washington, who had a sparkling season. The Chicago star was credit ed with 25 victories and charged with 15 defeats, winning average of 1925 though his team finished in seventh place.
 Carl Mays and Waite Hoyt, CO., stars of the champion Yankees, were third and fourth, respectively, among the regulars with averages of 3.0S and 3.10. Mays led in percentage of games won with an average of .750, his record reading, 27-9. Urban Shocker of St. Louis also won 27 games but lost 12 for record of .692. Mays also led i'll actual work hurling 337 innings, six more than Faber.
 Urban Shocker, great spit-ball hurl- CT of the St. Louis Browns, won nine straight games in August and finish ed the season with a record of 27- 12 for an average of .692. Davis of the same team pitched and won 19 inning contest from Washington in which only one man reached first base in the last nine rounds. Sam Jones and Joe Bush of Boston, Edwin Rommel, Philadelphia and S. Coveles- kie of Cleveland all were effective de- spite the lively ball while two young southpaws, Cole of Detroit and Bayne of St. Louis were almost unbeata- ble during the final month of the season.
 Most of the pitchers found it very difficult to cope with the great slug gers of the league and the hurling, as a whole, was far less effective than In any previous year. As result shut out victories and games of few hits were conspicuous by their rarity and strike out records of former years were not approached by the most sue. cessful of the twirlers.

You have often seen a girl who was carrying a watch that kept the correct time, haven't you? Neither have we!
 Wonder if a hotel proprietor expects to attract married men by advertising that his hotel is "homelike?'
 There are s,437 languages and dia- lects. But man can't think of one of thcm when his wife catches him out with a strange chicken.
 A woman will buy six articles in one day if they cost $1.98 each. But she would hate to buy anything that cost $2.
 A girl doesn't forget to wash her hair every now and then. But you can't all ways say that about her neck.
 There wouldn't be many marriages if girls selected husbands with as much care as they select hats.
 Father doesn't believe that mother does any work until he gets up some mornings whom mother is sick and has to dress one of the children all by him. self.
 Of course, the men are . lot of fools. But one nice thing about them is that they would rather use soap than cold cream when they want to wash their faces.
 Married life means three months of kissing and three hundred months of cussing.

From the Louisville rier-Journal,
 NOSE GERMAN is represented as "a
 well-known French writer" At
 any rate. he is better known to- day than he was day before yesterday For his name has gone out with an in- terview with the former German Kais- CT, coupled with an explanation of how, through his strategy, it was obtained.
 Of course, an interview with Will helm must be regarded as a star jour nalistic feat. It has been perseveringly sought by the press of the world ever since MT. Hohenzollern dumped his im- perial crown and like impedimenta and lit out, travelling light, for Holland. Only once prior to Jose Gerhains ex- ploit had what purported to be formal interview with the distinguished Ger is the retired senior partner in the firm of Me & God" dead set against issuing any interviews, but it seems he is f1atly forbidden to do so by Holland upon whose charity he is dependent for asy- lum.
 Jose Germain, therefore, fully real ized that it would be no easy task to get the interview he desired. But the difficulties ok the situation only spurred his genius. He called to it and it re- sponded with a plan which none other had conceived. He would bait the re- cluse of Doorn with the romance of g journal to be started in Alsace by loyal

AMERICANS A AT oxFRD

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
 When Cecil Rhodes left in his will a trust fund to maintain foreign students at Oxford he declared his belief that Ia good understanding between Eng land, Germany and the United States will secure the peace of the world and that educational relations form the strongest tie" The German scholar ships were cancelled in 1916, while the Germans were succeeding so well in their effort to put themselves beyond the pale of civilized human beings. There are now 90 scholarshiIts for the British colonies and 96 for America.
 Have the Apericans at Oxford made good? Have they realized the expec- tations of the founder? In The Ameri- can Oxanian for January there is sta tistical study that tells part of the story. But figures cannot cover the subject. The men yfrom America, ar irving in Oxford at the average age of p years and months, do not go as scholastic or athletic specialists. Their ODJSCt iS tO lAlplDC CultQI ., tO dOooi U an atmosphere. Tell a young man that you are placing him at an institution of learning to make him a Header of men" and you bid fair to make self conscious prig of him.
 The best proof of the value of the
 plan of Cecil Rhodes is in the way the scholars supported by his benefaction have fitted into every walk of life with a head that has not bee nswelled while the horizon has been enlarged. They are better Americans because they are better world citizens. In the long va cations they have scurried all over Flu. rope. helping everybody. Like Tenny-
 son's Ulysses much have they seen and known of men and of other lands. All this amounts to great deal more than the 1855 first and second honors taken by 380 men or the winning of blues and half-blues against Cambridge.
