SLIPPERY STREETS
 CAUSE ACCID .NIS

eet-glazed streets were respon- sible in part at least for two auto mobile accidents here last night. Dr. A. l.. Peacock was struck by a Ford car in which R. M. Travis, superin- tendent of bridge construction for Contractor R. L. Caster, and his chauffeur were driving, and knocked down at the corner of Robinson and Locust avenues. Dr. Peacock's knee was badly twisted and it was stated at his home he will probably not be able to be out or a few days, all though his injuries are not considered serious.
 Carl Russell, driving a Cole &, crashed into a Ford car in which C.. s. Harmon was driving into his garage on Railroad avenue near West Oak street last night. The Ford was badly damaged, but no one was hurt.

the house. This was on the south side. The house fronts north.
 He discovered Hopkins attempting to crawl from underneath Wright assisted as much as he could, sup porting him from the right. The wounded man stopped to lean against the door sill.
 Tom Johnson cut me and Roy shot me-" was what he said to Wright. Pm bleeding to death. Go and get Jim Martin and Jim Guatney-tell 'em I said to come'
 Hopkins was placed upon the bed. He was alive and weakened much from excessive bleeding. Wright thought his throat was cut on both sides, but found out this appearance was due to streams of blood coming from wound on the head or back of the neck, the stream dividing.
 Wright had placed Hopkins on the bed; the whereabout of Mrs. Hopkins are not known, if thought of; Wright has gone into the lot or is on the way to the lot to get a horse; he hears a voice from the east side of the house, apparently about 200 or moro yards distant:
 Don't hurt me-don't kill me-
 Wright is deeply troubled, but con. tinues his course. He summons bott Martin and Guatney as directed Martin comes with him. Guatnev say; to go ahead, he will come as soon a! he is dressed.
 With all speed they go to the Hop ! kins' house. Hopkins is dead wher. Wright had left him alive, probabl, one hour before. There is no trace O Mrs. Hopkins or the Juhnsons. Pres ently other neighbors arrive. Wright stated that those who gath cred at the house did not wish to un dertake search for the body of Mrs | Hopkins until daybreak He led search on small scale going to thu spot, as nearly as he could locate it | from which he heard her voice. MT. Summers supplied part of tn description of the place where tn, body was found. The woman ha, fallen in manner to convince tn, officer that she was knocked sense less and unconscious before her skull was caved in by the terrific impac of the large stone, recovered at tha place and brought here as evidence Her limbs were in the same positio, as held when she collapsed forward
 One pole and one club was used b. the murderers, MT. Summers think from the evidence, The larger poll was not used, being unwieldy. On tn, club were blood, wisps of woman hair and the shorter, grey hairs cor responding with those on the man head The shotgun was left there I, the house, as is already known. On. shell had been fired and one remain ed in the other barrel.

the night of February 8 for a tt with the Aggies, while Hendrix is at home to the Jonesboro Aggies here. A Normal-Jonesboro game possibly will be billed for February 2. The Pine Bluff "Y" five will come here onJanuary 30 and 31.
 The court game probably will reach it's peak when Morley Jennings leads his Ouachita Tigers into Con way for two games each with Hen dirk and the Normal, the dates be- Ing February to 9. Cuachita on paper apparently is Hendrix's chief rival for premier honors, the Reddies having been counted out this week by two defeats. Both the local lives" will be prepped for the Bap- lists, and four stiff battles are in prospect.
 Basketball is higher in favo. local ly than ever before. It was given a good start by the two well played games against Henderson Brown. To supplement this, the Bulldogs and Bears appear to have developed stiff teams, and the indoor court has help ed. At Hendrix, all the boosting is for an opportunity to sen the Bull dogs in action against out of state teams, except for the Tigers. whose gore is craved above anything else which may mark the course of the season.

the sport is shelved for baseball.
 The new field will be oval and en- circled by track measuring one quarter mile. Flanking the track will be a roadway connecting with Bruce street, broad space being left between track and roadway for grandstands and bleachers. Grading on the lot will be started when con- ditions at the Normal permit. For the present, the temporary bleachers will be removed from the old field and used until funds are available for the erection of larger ones. It IS to be noted in chronicling any event affecting athletics at the State Normal that the entire student body and faculty take a personal interest in 1t, and this is more than true in regard to the new field.
 The use of the indoor basketball court at Hendrix has been given the State Normal for games at night, the Normal having no indoor court, and the schedules of both local teams made to suit this arrangement. The first opponents for the Bears will be Russellville Aggies, due here Janu- ary 24 with an afternoon game on the Normal outdoor court and a night game on the Hendrix indoor court. Two games against College of the Ozarks of Clarksville are booked for January 27, afternoon and night. The Bears will invade Russellville

Let stay on table all night then wrap in several thicknesses of paper and tie up se- curely in sacks that have been heavily starched or whitewash them after meat is tied upin them.
 Mrs. Walter Ferril of near Con- way suggests that paraffin be put in startch for sacks, that this makes sacks air tight. Bacon put up in this way is like expensive breakfast bacon.

SONG OF RELIGION
 PRECEDED MURDER POWERFUL, FIERY LIQUOR
Honsinger and Wright Recount Events on Fatal Night-Both
 Disciaim Guilt.

See in the eye of the mind the liv- ing room of an average farm house; !; in one corner is the stove and furth- CT away table with a single kero- sene lamp; in another corner is an organ and George Hopkins seated at it; ranged about the room are his wife, Tom and Roy Johnson, Mon lion singer and Myron Wright; the John sons are under the influence of whiskey so fiery and SC powerful that Wright and Honsinger say they can not bear the burning pain it spreads down the throat if imbibed; Hopkins has been drinking with them and now from the organ picks out the strains of several songs, which are sung by at least some of the party; finally his fingers pick out as he pumps lust!- ly the air of an ancient hymn, prob ably the most simple expression of religious faith in the English langu- age, "There's Not a Friend Like the Lowly Jesus," and those in the small party who had joined the singing prior to this now lift the words of the hymn.
 Not so many hours later, George Hopkins, slashed with knife and his body penetrated by bullets, was lying dead in his house; the body of his wife was some distance away concealed in the woods; Tom and Roy Johnson were in flight; Mon Hon singer had reached his house or was travelling toward it, and Myron Wright was with neighbors of the murdered couple attempting to re- store a semblance of order there and to collect whatever evidence could be found against the slayers.
 Such is the impression left after hearing the stories of Wright and Honsinger, arrested here by Deputy Sheriffs J. I. Summers and J. A.. King as accessories to the murde" of the Hopkins couple, Honsinger;s story tallies with what was told by Tom Johnson at the state penitentiary, at whatever points they touch. Hon singer talked first when seen at the county jail today and then Wright, at his own request, was heard.
 First in importance is Wright's statement as to why when testifying before the inquest held the day follow ing the murders, he declared he was, besides the Johnsons and the Hop- kinses the only one present at the house that night. Wright was told this was the most important point for him to clear up, and for his part declared, it was the thing he wanted to get before the public.
 In effect, Wright declared he knew Honsinger to be absolutely innocent of any part in the murders and be- sides, he himself was still badly 1 frightened and at loss to know what to do, even the day following the af- 1 fair Hopkins was an uncle of I Wright. Knowing Honsinger 10 be in ] nocent and seeing no necessity for , bringing him into so terrible tragedy
 Wright says he purposely left Hon ! singers name out of his testimony and also out of what he told other people about the crime.
 1 As beginning to Honsinger's story of the fatal night, he had never visit ed at the home of Tom and Roy Johnson and had had nothing to do with them except to talk to the old man about selling him horse That was several days prior to the mur- der, and when the Johnsons came by

CENTRALIA MEMORIAL PLAN
AGAIN ENDORSED

By unanimous vote, at meeting al
state headquarters in Seattle last
Sunday, the Board of Trustees of the
American Legion again indorsed the
plan to build a Memorial at Centralia
in honor of the four comrades of the
Legion who were killed in that city
while participating in the Armisticc
Day parade of 1919. This action OF
the trustees was thought to be desir-
able at this time to keep the record
clear and to meet the persistent eff
fort of few Dissatisfied memoer.
who have been trying to inject sec
tional or personal animosities into
campaign to raise the fund for the
building.
At the trustees meeting all section.
of the state were represented. Ii
attendance were C. d. Cunningham
state commander; A. f. McCabe, vice
commander; Henry A. Wise, adju-
tant; c. f. Chase, Weratchee; Charles
S. Albert, Spokane; Fred NJ. Well.
Hanford; L. E. Wilkinson, Tacoma;
c. w. Jordan, Everett; J. w. Kildali
Beliingham; Stephen F. Chadwick
Charles H. Paul end Arthur NJ.
Strandberg, Seattle.
The resolution adopted gives the
story of the memorial plan from the
time it originated following it
through all the stages of considera-
ton by Legion committees and con
ventlons, and showing it to have been
indcrsed all down the line to the time,
December 10, 1921, when the state de
partment and board of trustees au-
thorized formation of the Centralla
Memorial association on as non-profit
holding corporation to raise the
money and erect the building.
The trustees called attention to the
fact that the effectiveness of the
American Legion as an organization
depends upon the ability and readi-
ness of all its members to act united
ly on all matters ami especially il
sustaining the decisions of their own
officers and representatives.. All
members of the Legion in the state
and all posts and county organizations
are called upon by the trustees to
give their earnest support and hearty
cooperation to the Centralia Memoir
ial association anu to the patriotic cit
liens who have undertaken leadership
in the effort to raise the required funa
IN the shortest possible time.

GARDEN NOTES.

Gardening is one of the oldest of
human occupations and one in which .
large portion of the populrtion is in
terested in some degree either for
profit or for recreation, and to pro-
vide fresh vegetables for the home
table.
almost anyone can plant seed.
and if he does not treat them too
cruelty, they will grow" states very
complete "Crop Book" Issued by Lii
ly's Seattle, "but to be successful
gardener requires skill, knowledge
and experience. 1t must be remem-
bered that plants are living things
that they breathe, drink, and eat, that
if their surrou dings are congenial
they will thrive, but if uncongenia,
they will struggle along between life
and death, and although they may Fl
nally reach maturity, they will never
reach the state of perfection which
will make the gardener proud of his
achievement"
It is really surprising that plants
thrive as well as they do sometimes
under adverse conditions. Naturally,
the first requisite is good seed, bu-
there is little danger in buving good
seed from reliable seedsmer who ties
all seed sold. 1t never pays to buy
cheap seed as the little saved woul
be insignificant compared with a crop
failure.
Life in a SEED is wonderfully per-
sistent but there are som, obstacles
that it cannot overcome. In most
of the cases where failure is com
monty attributed to poor So d the rea
cause is due to carelessneas in plant
ing or unfavorable conditions of sol
or water.
Frequent causes of flilure a.
planting too early, too deep or tor
late. The thorough preparation Of
the soil is Of the greatest nportancc.
By all means the ground must lie
thoroughly pulverized, grar1lated and
smooth. The rows should We straight.
If the ground is wet, beds may be
raised by cutting paths a few inches
deep around them for drainage, but
otherwise the garden should be left
fiat.
Most seed should not he planted too
early. Plenty of time sholld be al
lowed for the weather to settle and
for the danger of cold nights to pass,
as these will frequently give them
setbacks from which they will neve
recover.
Neither should they be planted too
deep. An old rule is to plant to a
depth of five times the diameter of
the seed. The earth should be packed
firmly over the seed, especially when
the soil is light.
