PRESENT BANK LAWS
 ARE SATISFACTORY
Special to The News.

Special to The News. ; Little Rock, Jan 20.-Legislation regulating the banks will probably be rare specimen in the legislative session. The present banking laws have worked so satisfactorily that no deposltor Tn state bank has lost a cent in the past few years. A bank guaranty feature could give no better protection to the depositors and it's operation would be so much more expensive that the legislators appre- ciate thes volue of the existing laws. The Arkansas banking laws were drawn with a view of making bank failures few and far between. being preventive more than a remedy, and should bank guaranty bill be now offered it's support would come from only the radical members, and they are few in this session of the legislature.

the starvation of the Armenian peo- pie before the next harvest can be gathered. President Ohandjanian's message reads:
 lowing to hail, rain and field mice, the harvest In Armenia fell below expectations. Standing crops appeared well, but owing to poor seeds returns were not as good as was expected. ,- Maximum returns 10000 tons, only sufficient for eight months for one and a half million people. Food crisis critical and in- tensified by new Turkish invasion of Armenia. It is estimated that 100000 peaceful inhabitants of Sarikamish and Kars region have been forced to renew the life of refugees and flee towards the in- terior of Armenia. There are also large numbers fleeing from Bolshe- viks in Azerbaijan and Southern Russia, and coming to Armenia. Farmers, fearing famine, are un- Wiling to sell crops, thus leaving the cities foodless. In addition to the Armenian crops, ten thousand tons have been purchased from neighbOring countries.
 ''In order to save Armenia 1t is necessary to secure flour from America, 50,0O0 tons, maximum re- quirement. In the name of the Ar menian Government and the Arme- nian People, beg that you use your wide influence in order that the Near East Relief may secure and ship the flour needed. I am sure that in this serious crisis the Near East Relief will not fail to continue it's aid to Armenia in her struggle for existence.

WHERE YOU GOT THAT AWFUL
DREAM.

Dc you eve give any thought, Mr.,
and Mrs. Reader, to your subconscious
mind? In other words, the other
things your brain is working on with
out your conscious knowledge, while
it is at the same time working on
those. things you know of, that you are
fully alive to.
The scientists have developed a
whole shelf of books on this subject
during the last ten or fifteen years,
mostly as a result of close observa-
ton of picked human individuals,
great numbers of them. And these OBJ
servations in all cases have been card
indeXed as you would card-index a
hundred thousand books in a public Ii
brary. The result is that a great deal
of interesting information has been
obtained on sub-consciousness. much
of it valuable to the medical mar in
his task of healing sick mankind.
There are few of us who have not
experienced "night-terrors' sometime
between b%abyhood and old age. Night
terrors and Nightmares are the action
of the subconsciouS mind, and one of
the writers, a Dr.. Bowers, informs us
that they date back thousands and
thousands of years through our an
cestors to the days of the flying
lizard" and other giant horrors that
devastated early humanity.
Then there is the gravity fall' as
the scientists call 1.-THE dream we
all have had of falling great distances.
1t is a heritage of the age when our
far distant f~orefathers lived in tree
tops to escape the dreadful animals
that preyed upon them. They were
always in danger of falling, and al
ways in terror of it, and their danger
has descended to us in the sub-con-
scious mind and only comes forth in
dreams.

There is not a rich mar who made

had been brought up to wealth, he
wouldn't have had half the fun in life
hone of the pleasure of achievement
that has been his. He knows that
great usefulness in life is not only a
distinction but a personal joy. And
as he looks abroad at the lives of
wealthy men who got heir money from
their fathers, he congratulates himself
on his great good luck that he had to
make his.
AS a well-known American writer
remarks: Taking care of wealth and
spending ii, is a business in ITSELF
The average young nan who is given
all the money he wants, has too much
to do spending it and doing the things
in life that wealth and position" are
supposed to demand. When middle
life comes he realizes the f~atuousness
of it all, but it is too late. The golden
hours when the ambition for achieve
ment flows strong in the blood, have
passed.
Nobody knows better the joy of do
