RTvER DANCING PoPULAR

Dancing on the boats OF the Will
son Line is proving one Of the most
popular amusements open to Will
mingtonians. The fare on the
boats is cheap, the ride TO Phila-
delphia and return is delightful and
splendid music for dancing is pro-
vided on the boats leaving this city

day, Thursday. Friday and Saturday
evenings. Even II a person does
not desire to dance the music and
the pleasure. Of watching the dancers
adds materially 10 the enjoyment
of the trip.

AT THE QUEEN


Tom Mix goes a-wooin' a ridin' on
pony in his picture "A Ridin'
Romeo" which is now at the Queen.
He is certainly a Romeo but he ap-
pears minus the doublet and the
tights and the feather in his hat.
Shak kespeare's Romeo was romantic
and poetic Tom Mix's Romeo is
romantic and energetic. There is a
slight difference.
"A Ridin' Romeo" is. according to
the best critics in the world-the au-
dlence itself-the best thing that
Mix has done yet The reason lies
in just two things. First Tom
wrote the story for himself and
wrote it well and second, the picture
about equally mixes up comedy and
thrills.
Tom is not afraid 10 try anything
that viii get a laugh from his peo-
pie and give them a thrill. He Is
always UP to some sort Of mischief
His efforts in this picture meet with
success but only after a great deal
of variegated fun. ranging anywhere

 Both camps agree that Japan is facing crisis requiring tact and largeness of vision. Many members of the Privy Council, according to the well informed newspaper Chugai Shogyo Shimpo, are pessimistic about the conference They contend that

 Mrs. Snyder was arrested about 10 o'clock last night by Police Sergeant Ewing and Patrolman Rob- erts and after conference at the North Little Rock city hall with her attorney, Jack Yeas, she made no statement further than to say that the shooting was accidental. Mrs. Snyder said the gun was discharged without her Knowledge. Mrs. Snyder was held at the North Little Rock jail last night.

Directors and Teachers of That Community Appre- ciate The Importance of Approved Methods.
fBy H. R, PARTLOW)

This is story of one of the rural communities in Greene county with especial reference to the strides in education and is given in order to show what whole hearted CO., operation can accomplish. This com munity has no material advantages over any of the other communities in the county and in some respects possibly difficulties not to be found in other communities.
 Eight Mile school is situated about s miles southeast of Paragould in one of the strong agricultural re- gions of the county, but educational interest does not always depend upon the fertility of the soil, so we must look further into the matter to ascertain the cause of certain prog rcss made in the community. It may be wise not to give any explan- ation whatever but to tell what they have done preparatory to giv- ing their children the best possible under the circumstances.
 The teacher in this school is Harry Day, home product, but a teacher thoroughly alive to the edu- cational needs of the county, and one who is doing much to enhance the progress of that community. The directors are: c. R. White, N. O.

Now the di- rectors of this community are squarely behind the teacher and the patrons realize that the school depends upon the measure of service to give. Further, the success Of anything depends upon the prelim- mary service rendered leading up to the beginning Look well to the teacher who goes into the com munity before the day of the be- ginning with a view of making the
 necessary preparation for the work. Well, this is what the teacher in this school did. He went to Eight Mile school before the day to begin. The teacher, directors and parents met at the school house the week previous to the beginning, had a community meeting for the purpose of getting ready for school. A big 1 fish fry was the event but subor-
 dinate to the object in view; foI seventeen men spent the entire day 1 in cleaning up the school house
 and play grounds for the schoo which was to convene on the follow ing Monday. They assumed ant wanted their children to have 1;

 First, particular attention wa Igiyen to the we'll, the source 0
 water supply, and of vital i'm lportance to the health and welfar of the school children. These peo |plc spent nearly forty dollars il money to insure good water. Thi Imoney was spent for tiling in orde to take care of the waste wate land this precautiOn is very wise il view of the fact that children ar cOntinually pumping water for drink ing purposes.

The people o Eight Mile have solved this problem By taking four pieces of timbe they made a frame about six fee lsquare and about eight inches il i depth.

LAPS BELIEVE TAP
 SETTLEMENT NEAR

Tokio, July 1S.-Negotiation be- tween the United States and Japan relative to the status of the island of Yap have progressed so favorably that it is confidently expected a settlement of that question will be reached before converting Of the conference called by President Hard ing to discuss armament and settle ment of problems in the Pacific according to the Kokusai News Agency, which quotes well in formed sources"
 Japan, it is said, heartily wei comes the inclusion of China in the proposed conferences, as Chinese and Siberian problems are expected to form important topics for discus sion, and Chinese participation, con- sent and understanding are essen tial if any of the decisions reached are to be put into effective opera tion.
 The conference is declared to of fer an excellent opportunity for the powers to reach a unanimous deci- sion on Far Eastern questions, al though it is pointed out that his. torical and other considerations af- fecting the various nations may make immediate enforcement of con. ference decisions a matter of some difficulty.
 Many leaders of Japanese thought are expressing the opinion that Ja- pan will have at Washington the golden opportunity of ner history tt make known to the world her de- with the United States, which is regarded as so vital to Japan's future.
 Despite the reservations contained in Japans reply to President Hard ing's invitation to take part in the conference, the answer is regarded as a virtual acceptance.
 It is forecasted that when America defines the problems to he taken up 8t the conference, Japan will pre- pare q list of questions which she deems essential for discussion. These, it is expected, will be roughly grouped under the headings of popu- lation, food and raw materials, the last of which, it is contended, should be freely available to Japan, in- cluding cotton from the United States and India.
 It is generally held that tho ques- lion of Japanese immigration to the American continents and the British dominions must be discussed in con nection with Japan's population problem. Japan also is expected to urge the according of most favor ed nation" treatment to her products in all countries, and to urge that China should be opened up to the world. including Japan, for resi- dence and business.
 The opinion also is prevalent that, dS tue IlulltaJlOn Ol drnlameNIS IS a world issue, there is no reason a discussion of international prob lems should be confined to the Far East. Several Japanese leaders are quoted as believing there are equal ly grave possibility of war in Eu- rope, and as favoring the conference going into such questions as war indemnities.
