ClSE AGAINST BLYTEEVILLE
MAYOR IS DISMISSED

The case against DR.. C. A. Card
well, mayor of Blytheville, which
was held last Tuesday in the crimi-
nal division of the circuit court was
dismissed upon motion of the pro-
secution after it was ascertained the
word "sale" in the indictment was
ruled out by the court and there
would be no further use of continu-
ing with the failure to prove the
transporting and storage of liquor
without first proving a sale.

Barnum, though he had interest
exhibits, knew that no one would
lear of them unless he advertised.
Among other kinds of advertising he
invented the billboard.
But his greatest ad was his circus
parade, winding up with a caliope
that rang in your ears for weeks, TO
keep the circus in your memory. No
conservative band for Barnum.
Barnum died in 1891. His cir
Gus went on. Finally it corsolidat-
ed with Ringing Bros.--the Ding
dong Brothers, as they are called in
the sawdust ring. During the 1920
season the parade was el'inated. That

KEEP INCREASINGLY AT 1T

The secret of Barnmn's success was
simple Realizing that this world
at it's best is rather dull, he intuit-
lively caught the idea that people will
flock to see the unusual.
a healthy baby, born in Cape Cir
ardeau to parents you don't know,
does not interest you. But i. you
are told that the baby has six teeth
you sit up and take notice.
Many shrewd men have recogniG
ed this psychological truth and pro-
flied by it. That is, they have OPP
ened~the gates to fortune by doing
the customary "old stuff in a sligh :
ly different way. t AT this trick
politicians especially are expert, at
each election time trotting out the
old bunko with new coat of paint
like Barnum's white elephant, which
was exposed when the rain washed
the whitewash off during he parade.
Take what you are doing for IL
living; if you can figure out how to
do it in a different, more interesting
way, success is yours.

7 Soldier ~
DIV NnCfc1a Oor(Ssaa nA
By angela MorGat,

HE is known to the sun-white Majesties
Who stand at the gates of dawn:
He is known the cloud-borne company
Whose soulds but late have gone.
Like wind-fung stars through lattice bars
They throng to greet their own,
With voice of flame they sound his name
Who died to us unknown.
he is hailed by the time-crowned brotherhood,
BY the Dauntless of Marathon,
By Raymond, Godfrey and Lion Heart,
Whose dreams he carried on.
His name they call through the heavenly hall,
Unheard by certify ear.
He is claimed by the famed in Already
Who knew no title here.
OH faint wac the lamp of Sirius,
And dim was the Milky Way.
Oh far was the floor of Paradise
From the soil where the soldier lay.
Oh chill and stark was the crimson dark
Where huddled men lay deep;
His comrades all denied his call
Long had hey lain asleep.
. OH strange how the lamp of Sirius
Drops low to the dazzled eyes;
Oh strange how the steel-red battlefelds
Are floors of Paradise.
Oh strange how the ground with never sound
Swings open, tier on tier,
And standing there in the shining air
Are the friends he cherished here
THEY are known to he sun-shod sentnels
Who circle the mornings door.
They are led by cloud-bright company
Through paths unseen before.
Like blossoms blown their sould have flown
Past and reeking sod
In the book unbound their names are found
They are known in the court of God

 TO PROMOTE
 SCHOLARSHIP

New York, Dec. 9.-Columbia Uni versity has enlisted it's fraternities to promote scholarship among its 1000 undergraduates. Fraternity rivalry for scholastic honors will be stilnu- lated by semi-annual publications of relative academic rank. The record of each fraternity will be disclosed and. according to Dean Herbert E. Hawkes.. of Columbia College, 1t is hoped to arouse keen competition among the many fraternit:es which flourish at Columbia for primacy In classroom and laboratory.
 Beta Sigma Rho was the banner fraternity during the academic year 192O-1921, it is revealed by the first announcement, just made, of frater- nity standing. Phil Epsilon Pi is sec ond. Sigma Alpha Mu third and Sigma Alpha Epsilon fourth.
 Some of the leading national fra ternities are well down in the list. AL pha Delft Phi, on whose rolls have been such names as James Russell Lowell and Joseph H. Coate, is f1f- teenth. Delta Kappa Epsilon, whose membership also contains names of great distinction, is seventeenth. Psi ties twenty eighth. President Nicho- las Murray Butler is member of the Columbia chapter of this frater ntty. Delta Psi is twenty-ninth. The complete standing of the fraterni- ties follows:
 Beta Sigma Rho, Phi Epsilon Pi, Sigma Alpha Mu, Sigma Alpha Epsi- lon, Tau Epsilon Phi, Tau Delta Phi, Omicron Alpha Tau, Zeta Beta Tau, Delta Phi, Phi Gamma Delta, Alpha Phi Delta, Pi Lambda Phi, Phi Sigma Delta, Phi Beta Delta Alpha Delta Phi, Sigma Chi, Delta Kappa Epsilon, Beta Theta Pi, Delta Tau Delta, Rap pa Nu, Alpha Sigma Phi, Theta xxi, Phi Sigma Kappa, Alpha Chi Rho, Phi Delta Theta, Phi Kappa Psi, Theta Delto Chi, Psi Upsilon, Delta Psi, Phi Kappa Sigma, Sigma Nu, Delta Upsilon and Zeta Psi.
 Deane Hawkes., who is an advocate of fraternity life, in which he sees much of profit both to the university and the student body, says the publi-
 cation of the list is part of a construc- tive plan to enhance the usefulness of universities and make them a more powerful agency of college life. The fraternities are cooperating g with the college authorities in devel- | ing the plan. Each fraternity is talk l ing up the question of scholarship D with the purpose of impressing the
 necessity of paying greater attention ] to college work not only upon the freshmen and sophomores, but upon l the upper classes. The academic rec ords of the fraternities. it was stated will be published at the end of each semester.
 The experiment Is being watched | with great interest at Columbia

Unnecessary Noise Developer of
 Profanity

Chicago, Dec. e.-Unnecessary noises are responsible for the terrible nervousness of citizens in the great American cities, for the loss of count less hours of sleep and the swearing indulged in by even the most highly respected persons, Dr. Willis O. Nance, of Chicag go, told the American Civic Association, in convention here.
 Unnecessary city noises" declared Dr. Nance, 'aTe the bane of metro pontan existence. They murder sleep, assassinate mental rest, shatter our nerves, develop profanity and indi- rectly shorten our lives.
 These noises are not the din but the kneu of civilization"
 Dr. Nance said there is little doubt but that many nervous wrecks are created each year by the incessant din and clamor to which the average city resident is continually subjeced. He said in Chicago, New York and Philadelphia there are more kinds of useless noises than in all the cities of Europe combined. He advocated a campaign of edHcation to arouse pub lie sentiment against the continuance of noise nuisances.
