After Rndyard Kipling

When the husband faces helpmeet
every morning in debate,
And he's trying to explain to her
why he was out so late,
There is never any question that
his argument will fail,
For the female Of the species can
talk longer than the male.
When the argument Is hottest and
they get down to brass tacks,
And they land each others rela-
tives lot of pungent whacks;
You would think that hers were
angels and that his should be
In jail,
For the female of the species can
think faster than the male.
When they're whacking up the
Doodle that he's earned through
out the week
And deciding how to spend 1t,
he's a pretty helpless geek;
It Is sad for him to look at his
percentage of the kale,
For the female of the species can
grab quicker than the male.
When they do their weekly shop
ping and they linger round
the store,
Till the husband thinks that llv-
ing is most decided bore;
She can take SO cent piece and
get dry goods by the bale,
For the female OF the species can
buy cheaper than the maze.

AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR
 CONTROL OF CANCER FORMED

Little Rock, Jan. 12.-The Arkan- sas division of the American Society for the control of cancer has been formed. Dr. Dewell Gan is chair man of the state committee. At a meeting held in the city hall, Dr. Gan said: "The movement was of very great importance at the present time since the death rate from cancer was increasing at the rate of 21a e per annum and 90,000 people in the United States were dying yearly from this formidable disease, due to the fact that the people are not cog nizant of the danger signals of can cer and permitted their case to ad- vance too far before consulting pro per sources for treatment In it's early stages cancer is a curable dis ease, in its late stages incurable and contrary to a general idea, it is not painful in its early stages, is not hereditary and not transmissible from one human to another. These facts must be gotten over to the peo- ple and in order to do this the com mittee will arrange for public lee lures in Little Rock, Pine Bluff, Hot Springs. Fort Smith and other large cities.
 "The National organization pub fishes a booklet entitled What the People Should Know About Cancer" which is now ready for distribution, and can be obtained by addressing the Arkansas State Cancer Control Committee, Little Rock.
 'The committee is to write every physician in the State telling him of the organization and it's plans and urging his cooperation. Also the County medical societies will be re quested to organize local cancer con t<ol committees. The movement is purely an altruistic one and in the very near future the committee pro poses to put on tag day for the purpose of obtaining funds to carry out it's motives.

CRITICAL STAGE PASSED
U. s. Soon to Reach Stable Condi-
 ton, Says New York Banker.

New York, Jan. 1.-The United States has passed through the most critical stage of its postwar read justments, although many more must be made, Francis H. Sisson, New York banker, declared at the annual dinner of the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce here tonight There is ample ground, he said, "for believing that we shall reach a rela- lively stable condition in this country in the very near future.
 "The adjustment of production costs will involve and, in fact, will consist" he said, ''chiefy of wage adjustments although increased eff ficiency and decreased margins of profits must also play their part. As wages generally are reduced, of course, there will be curtailed pur- chasing power, but it should be re- membered that decreased costs of production will lower commodity prices which will ultimately offset the reduced buying capacity of the public"

BROUGH'S PARDONS
 AND COMPUTATIONS

Little Rock, Jan. 12.-At the con- clusion of Governor Brough's admin istration, he announced that he had g1 anted pardons and communications in $50 felony cases and 5 commuta- tions that do not expire at once In addition to these there were about 300 remissions of fines and bail bonds In misdemeanOr cases, one estimate being a total of 1922 cases in all in which the governor had acted Among the cases acted upon by him within the last few days are the fol lowing:
 Ches Kelly, young man "A years of age, originally sentenced to death for murder in Jackson county; com muted to life imprisonment 1918; Kelly prevented the escape of 75 convicts at the time 12 others es- capped from the state farm December 26 and his sentence was commuted to Fl years.
 Tom Ray of Green county and Will Hoffman of Madison county, convicted in 1916 of murder, sen fenced to 21 years, commuted to 10 years as reward for loyalty to peni- tentiary authorities.
 Isaiah Grissom, colored, convicted in 1918 in Lee county and sentenced to 15 years; commuted to years on petition of all county officers on ground that act was committed in self defense.
 Edward Miller, Garland county, convicted of murder in second de- gree; sentenced to 12 years; Miller is cripple and petitioners say his act was justified as the man he killed had made an attack upon him. Matilda Yam, negress, Miller county, convicted last November of manslaughter and sentenced to years; on ground that act was justi- fled.

SENATE OPERATING
 UNDER PREVIOUS RULES

Little Rock, Jan. 12.-Starting right off the reel to operate under the rule of the previous session. the Senate respected Tuesday as House Day, on which no business may be transacted until House measures are out of the way. As there was only one House bill, the per diem and mileage measure, it was soon dis posed of, and local legislation was next for consideration. The Senate decided right away that it was the judge of whether or not o local bill had been advertised in accordance with the law, and that when any member presented local bill it was presumed that it had been properly advertised The call for local bills met with a brief response and gen eral bills followed Only Il bills in all had been offered in the Senate at the end of the first working day. Two of these were drastic measures intended to eliminate Arkansas from the wave of crime sweeping over the country. Both, by Senator Owen of Pulaski, raised the limits on rob bery and assault. If these bills pass it will be good for from to 21 years in the penitentiary to commit rob- bery, and from 5 to 10 years on conviction of assault
 Two more constitutional amend ments were offered, one by Senator McFerrin, requiring property owners to assess their holdings for taxation at their actual value. Senator Vaughan offered the other, an amend ment to provide, by legislative enact ment for additional members of the supreme court when they are needed. Senator Hartje offered an amendment in the morning session to require the listing of personal property for taxa tion in improvement districts. All were sent to the committee on consti- tutional amendments.
 The Senate wrangled for quite awhile over an increase in the force of stenographers from four to eight, and pages from four to six. It was pointed out that more clerical as sistance is necessary in limited session of the legislature, and even though the battle axers worked the best they knew how, the bill went to it's second reading on a vote of 21 to 10. This put the bill in position for passage on Wednesday.

There has been a change IN the peaceful. outlook
IN Upper sileaia during the part few days and il remains

ments Of the past few days 1t still seems apparent that a
peacefpl solution of the question at issue must be found.
All the governments affected declare their beside to main
tain peace. All disavow any intent to foment disturb
ances or engage in hoetiitics. There il a conflict OF de-
sire between the Germans and the Poles due not alone
to national ambitions but to the very important resources
OF some of the territory which is in dispute. The French
attitude has been one Of sympathy Tor Poland, and this is
easy to understand, because France has experienced the
erect OF . strong German power at her borders, and her
people are strongly DESTROYS Of having q well-equipped
power to the east Of Germany which will be friendly to
france. For this reason the French have supported the
Polish claims, and it is probably true that ambitious
Poles have been encouraged by the belief that their war
from France. Perhaps the best assurance of peace would
be in the occupation of the territory by strong bodies of
Allied troops whose presence would remove any excuse
for local uprisings on the part Of either Germans or Poles.

PAST AND PRESENT MEET.

The drowning of the recently appointed factor of a
Hudson's Bay post, with his wife and three children, on
a river in far northern Canada, aside from the lament
able character of the tragedy itself, illustrates the curious
manner In which past and present are blended in the at
fairs of this famous old company. The Hudson's Bay
company dates back to the Stuart kings of England, and
its history is packed full of adventure and romance such
as now seem more appropriate to the middle ages than
to these later days. 1t is a little difficult for those living
in close contact with the social and industrial develop
ments of the present to realize that under the charter
granted more than twogcenturies ago this company is still
carrying on a work quite similar to that in which it en-
gagged in those earlier days, and pursuing methods in the

camille company, and in parts Of the territory where 1t
once did nothing but collect furs, it now operates many
large and we'll appointed mercantile establishments, equip

business quite in the modern manner.
But the company still retains it's fur interests. and
away off in the wilderness are its posts, with their factors
and little groups of employees, carrying on just as in the
days of King Charles. 1t was while on his way with his
family to one of these distant posts that the new factor
and his family lost their lives. Like their predecessors
for many generations, they were. travelling by canoe. But
here a modern feature has crept in for, instead Of being
made Of birch bark, the canoe was made of canvas, and
instead Of being propelled by the muscular arms of Indian
paddlerists, carried a motor and depended on gasoline for
tits motive power. Doubtless the motor had something
Ito do with the tragedy, as it's weight would tend to make
the craft unmanaseable after it had once begun to ship
water.

ooNREsR1NG WITH RAILROAD MEN.

IlN@I "1AA 1AA1AEbOAD MEN,.
President Harding has had a frank talk with a num-
oef OF raarW1y managers and has set forth for their con-
saders3on his views of the Importance of a downward re-
vision OF rates. He knows, as every man knows, that the
nien rates which are now being charged operate as an
obstacle In the way OF progress, and he has made a per-
sonal appeal to the men who are charged with the duty
OF managing the transportation of the country to take
such steps as will give the country the good service which
1t must have at rates which will promote rather than
impede the progress Of industry.
President Harding presented no magic formula for
the solution of all the countrys transportation problems.
There are other men of lesser note and no responsibility
Whatever, who can tell just what should be done, and
when, and how. But the record which most of these
men have made in managing affairs of their own is such
that their recommendations are to be received with eau
ton. Their plans may sound we'll, but there is likely to
be . catch in them.
But the president did make a Statesman like appeal
to men who are. like himself, charged with great respon-
sibihty, and il the men to whom that appeal was made
are fitted for the positions which they hold, that appeal
will not be lightly regarded. Some of those men per-
formed splendid service for the nation while it was at
war. There is fully as great need for their services now
that the country is at peace.
