 DECISION IN ARKANSAS COURT
Pearl Puesey Refused ston Using Powder and Prin- cipa1 Expelled Her-Now She Is Suing for Reinstate- ment Without Prejudice.

Knoble, Ark. Jan. 3.-'To powder or not to powder"
 Judicial decision on this delicate point has again been postponed. the Clay County Court has again de- ferred the famous cause of Pearl Pugsley versus the School Board of District No. 11.' Miss Pugsley was expelled from High school here be- cause she refused to abstain from the use of face powder, and she is now suing to be reinstated in school with out preudice to her right of powder ing.
 Pending the courts decision the case is being tried in the court of public opinion. And not only this town, but the entire county is riven
 J. R. Mccoy, J. F. sellmeyer and B. A. Scott are the members of the School Board of District II who de- creed that "the wearing of transpar- or any other clothing tending toward :mmodesty, or wearing of face paint or cosmetics are prohibited" N. D. Hicks, principal of the school car Pugs1ey and two other girls home during the first part of the term when they failed to comply with the rule, and told them to wash the powder from their faces.
 Hicks who is also pastor of the Disciples of Christ church of Knobel declared that conditions of the school last term made necessary the adop- [. on of the rule.
 "It has been my observation that and complexions which the rule we adopted prevents disturb the of the school" said Hicks.
 Hicks admitted that just a little powder doesn't hurt" and it seems hat the board is somewhat divided )ver this point in their rule. But when a meeting of the directors was 1eld they stood as one in their decla- | -ations that "now that the rule is made we are going to stand by it"

La AtIantida de Pedro Benoit

AtlAntida. Todas las personas que ha-
yam leido esta obra magistral, estar&n
de acuerdo conmigo en- que su autor ha
perfumado todo el ambiente de su obra
con flores africans. Hay sabor de da-
til sombras de oasis en- el libro de Be-
mott.
Las escenas de Atlantida Sc desarro-
Han en- una region inexplorada del Saba
ra africano, en- torno una enigmatica
esfnge, una rara mujer que dice ell
autor ser la Meta de Neptune, descen-
dienta de los atlantes. Su nombre: An
tinea: cabe en- este nombre aquella fra
Sc de Plat6n y que ell propio autor po-
ne de lena a su obra: ''Debo prevent
ros primero ,antes de entrar en- materia,
no os asombreis de oirme lamar unos
barbaros con nombre griego". Antinea
que es ell nombre de la belleza oculta,
tiene su etimologia griega con mezcla
del lenguaje de uno de los dialectos del
Hogar...
Esta novela esta LENA de relatos de
viajes, aventuras, escenas tragicas, Y
de una emoci6n infnitamente profun-
da. Los dos personajes mas prominentes
de Ia obra son Ell captain Saint7Avit,
ell captain Morhange, asesinado miste-
riosamente en- ell palacio de la meta de
Neptune, donde otros exploradores, ar
que6logos aventureros. dieron al tras
te con su vida buscando en- las recon
Litas tierras de Africa, una ruina, una
huella... que pusiera al mundo intelec
tual cientifico, en- Ell camino recto del
origen de Atlantida. En- Ell palacio de
Antinea, que mas que otra cosa es un
cementerio donde yacen los restos de
SO mortales, Benoit, hace aparecer ell
original complete de una obra de Dio-
nisio, cuyo texto no Sc conocia todo.
Desde Ell Tit al Timissao, pasando por
Silet, en- Ell Africa occidental, describe
ell magnifico novelista, de una manera
brillantisima, la belleza inmutable de
la virginidad de aquel suelo, que ha re-
velado al mundo tantas cosas ocultas,
y que Sc reserva para ell porvenir gran
des acontecimientos.
La Atlantida de Benoit, es una obra
adaptable a todos los gustcs imagina-
clones rs una obra para toda clase de
mentalidades. Lo mismo goza en- su lee
tura una mujer que un hombre, un escri
! tor cue uno que no 10 sea.
Benoit es un gran poeta.
