CET BIC LOAN FOR
 CHRISTIAN COLLEGE TO OPEN IN SEPTEMBER
J. (. Dawson Announces Arrange ments Made to Secure $50,000 for
 College at Morrilton.

A loan of $25,00O to Arkansas Christian College of Morrilton, made by the Ancient Order of United Work men of Arkansas, will enable the trustees of the new college to resume building operations and to open the institution to students next Septem- Der, it was announced today by J. C. Dawson, chairman of the building committee and treasurer of the board Mir. Dawson received word that the loan had been granted from John R. Frazer, grand master of the A. O.. U. w., late Saturday.
 In addition to the $25 ,000 borrow ed from the Arkansas fraternal order, $12,500 additional will be paid in by citizens of Morrilton on the bonus subscribed to the new institution, and $12,500 will be raised among mem bers of the Church of Christ through out the state, making a total of $50,- GOO. This, MT. Dawson stated, will be sufficient to complete and equip the buildings now contemplated. Over $50,000 has already been raised and expended on construction work on the college, but work was suspended sev- eral months ago on account of un- favorable financial conditions making it impossible to realize on subscrip- tions and pledges made to the college.
 Mir. Dawson said the trustees are now devoting much time to the mat ter of selecting a president and faculty for the college, and announcements of the personnel will probably be made at an early date. He was highly elated over the granting of the big loan by the A. o. U. w. The loan was made, however, in keeping with the policy of that well-known and grow ing fraternal organization of keep ing Arkansas money in Arkansas The A. o. U. w. was of material as sistance to the Methodist congrega- tion of Conway, making large loan to it which made possible the com pletion of the present handsome edifice occupied by Conway Meth odists.

REACH DANGEROUS
 PERIOD OF FLOOD

With flood waters on the Arkansas recedinG at an accelerated clip, the dangerous stage of the present over flow is being reached and the next few days will determine the amount of damage to be sustained by owners of property along the front. Banks of the stream so far have not caved in, but the caving will set in, if it sets in at all, tomorrow or Wednesday. Practically all property has been re- moved from the menaced area.
 The Conway and Little Rock road Is again passable at Palarm and the trip can be made now straight through without detour. About four inches of water was over the road this morn- ing, but was falling rapidly and will be gone within another 24 hours. Palarm creek is also falling rapidly and land around there being drained as the creek has an outlet into the Arkansas.
 According to reports telephoned here today from the weather bureau standing at a high stage and is fall at Little Rock, the Arkansas is still ing very slowly. At Fort Smith the stage at a. m. today was 22 feet exactly flood stage-and had fallen only 8 foot in 24 hours. At Dard- anelle the stage was 20S8 feet, fall of II feet, and at Little Rock the stage was 22.2 feet, "a fall of 6 foot. Rains yesterday at Fort Smith and Dardanelle, amounting to .S2 inch at Fort Smith, and .54 inch at Dard- anelle, are expected to retard the fall in the river at points below.
