IS. l. A. COMMITTEE
 TOSEE MERCHANTS

Monthly visits to the merchants and business establishments of Conway will be paid this week by the commit | tee of the School Improvement Asso- | citation for the purpose of encourage ing cooperation in the collection of sales and luxury taxes for the SUD- port of the school. Members of the committee will also issue new cards, which will be obtained at the office of Banner X Company, to all busi- ness houses which desire to continue cooperation in the sales tax work.
 Officers of the associat ion are ex- pecting a large attendance and a lib- eral response at the book reception to be given I thursday evening in the base ment if the First Methodist church for the benefit of the public school library. The library has become so depleted and the demands upon it by increased attendance have grown to such an extent that the need of suitable books has become imperative A list of the books wanted, prepared by Supt. R. E. Womack, was pub lished in the Log Cabin Democrat yes- terday.
 While the School Improvement As soclatlon expects to use some of it's funds in the purchase of such books as are not donated, the officers hope they will not have to draw upon their treasury for this purpose, as it is de- sired to use the money for other funds. Additional drinking fountain facili- ties are sadly needed at the school, and the s. l. A. wishes to install them at once. The principal revenue of the association comes from the weekly sale of sandwiches to pupils. The teachers take orders from the pupils and the sandwiches are sold at moder- ate prices. Materials for them are pur- chased, but they are prepared by members. The income from this source, it is stated, amounts to nearly S10O month. For next Thursday or ders for over 800 sandwiches have al- ready been given.

10 CHANCE TRAIN
 SCHEDULE, REPORT

Important changes in the schedule of passenger trains over the central division of the Missouri Pacific will be made shortly, according to unver- flied reports current here today. No official statement has been made, how ever.
 According to reports, the accom- modation trains will be taken off the division and replaced by trains which will run on schedules similar to the time of trains 105 and 106, taken off when the Rainbow Special was added Southbound, the new train would leave Conway at about g q. m. for Little Rock, and returning would leave Lit tie Rock about 730 p. m., so the re- port has it. The revised schedule would also eliminate some of the stops now made by the Rainbow Spec lal, running it through with stops on. ly at Conway and Russelville between Little Rock and Van Buren. Other trains now on schedule would run on their present time cards.
 Credence to the report is given by changes reported for the service be tween St. Louis and Texarkana which would require revision of the central division time card to con- form.

ator Underwood, the Democratic
leader, who has been selected by
President Harding as one of the four
American delegates to the confer
ence of limitation of armament and
Far Eastern questions at Washing

make the necessary concessions for
an ultimate agreement which would
relieve the world of its armament

undoubtedly favor disarmament to
an extent that will be real in its eff
, feet"

Korean Attempts
Governor Saito's
Life with Bombs

Seoul, Korea, Sept. 12.-lBy The
Associated Press attempt upon
the life of Admiral Minoru Saito. the
governor of Korea, was made today.
A Korean threw two bombs at the
rooms in the government building
where Governor Saito was assuming
his duties after his return from the
country. The governor was not in
jured.
One of the bombs landed in the ac-
countants' division breaking through
the ceiling of the paymaster's depart
ment and causing considerable dam
age.
Theother bomb, which landed in the
secretarial division. did not explode.
The bomb thrower. who so far has
escaped arrest was apparently famil-
lar with the general lay out of the
government compound. The police
have begun an organized search for
him.

e High school would be postponed

the High school would be postponed
or that the old building would be oc-
cupied for the first few weeks of the
term. The old adage that where
there is a will there's a way" was
never better exemplified than right
here, and here is the way the turn
was brought about. The contractors
have kept at the job faithfully but
there were several things to be done
before school could be held in the
building. The seats were to be put
in place and several other minor de-
tails attended to. For the past few
days some 20 or more volunteers in
the shape of High school students
have been busy fixing the seats and
desks in place and doing the other
things necessary. and that's the rea-
son that on Monday the High school
convened in the new building. Hats
off to the Dung Americas that made
this possible.
