One Minute ESSAY

Silk was first used about 2600 B. G..
1t came about in this way. Sizing
Chi, thought only IA years old, was the
wife of HoangT emperor of China.
One day she sat watching a silkwOrn
spinning fiber on some mulberry leaves.
This she gathered up and the empress
and her attendants used it to cmbroid
er their robes. AT first the emperor
was amused but one day his little en-
press presented him with a garment
made entirely of silk. 1t had such
wonderful sheen that the other court
diGnitaries wished for robes of the
same fabric.
The culture of silk became a national
industry from that time on. For cen
turies China preserved the secret of silk
cultures from the outside world. She
amassed great fortunes by exporting
silk culture from the outside world. She
anassed great fortunes by exporting
silk products to India, Persia and Ar
abba. About $50 b. G. the secret leaked
out. One story is that Chinese prin-
cess elOped with an Indian prince and
concealed some silkwormns eggs and
seeds of the white mulberry tree in her
sandals. India then took up the indus
try but the Chinese princess who parted
with the secret disappeared mysterious
ly. Another version is that the first
eggs were brought into India by some

Association said.
Foreign Relations
The hearings of the Association s
committee on foreign relations will be
held in connection with the committee s

the coal mines of Wales, is at 32 Presi-
dent of one of the largest Teachers

that the backbone of the educational
system rests in the country school and
that they should have the highest grade
of teachers possible.

Forty Mayne, Qnd.) News: Senator
WatsOn's protest against the foreign

HICHV AIS WIN
 SUIT BROUGHT
 BY MO. PACIFIC

Taxpayers in the three road inn provement districts in Faulkner coun- ty won decisive victory yesterday when the United States circuit court of appeals, in session at St. Louis, handed down decision affirming the action of Judge Jacob Triber in fed eral district court for the eastern dis trict of Arkansas, sustaining the as- sessments levied against the Mis- souri Pacific railroad for the con- struction of the Damascus, Vilonia and Palarm highways. R. W. Robins, attorney for the districts, received a telegram last night from the clerk of the court announcing it's decision.
 The decision probably marks the final action in a long series of legal battles brought by the railroad and other sagainst the road districts in this county, as it is considered un- likely that the Missouri Pacific will seek an appeal to the United States supreme court. All other litigation brought against the districts has been settled in favor of the highways. The railroads appeal in the United States circuit court of appeals has been pend ing for more than a year.
 As result of the victory for the road districts the railroad will be compelled to pay an amount estimat- ed at nearly $100,000 toward the con- struction of the Faulkner county highways. The total amount assess ed by the three districts against the Missouri Pacific's right-of-wa for 1922, exclusive of the taxes on acre age lands owned by the company, is $5,132.64, divided as follows: Con. way and Damascus district, s2,254.6S; Conway and Vilonia district, $452 .23 Conway and Palarm district, $2,- 425.73.

WILL SEEK FUNDS
 FOR NEXT SCHOOL

That the next regular session of the Conway public schools will have to be maintained by the sales and lux ury taxes and additional private sub Scrlptions, as is being done at pres ent, was the decision reached at an informal meeting of the school board held yesterday afternoon. The banks of this city, which have been keeping the schools open by advancing pay ment of the districts warrants. have discontinued this practice and the district is still many thousands of dol lars in debt, so that it would be i'm possible to operate a school except upon donated funds, it was stated
 Secretary E. H. Allison of the board said today that a full statement of the districts financial affairs is be- ing prepared and will be published at an early date. By the latter part of the present month the board will also be in position to make a fairly accu- rate estimate of the annual amount that may be secured from the sales "iiu iuAbl ldNtS anu llI6 ulOIlllN subscriptions, and upon this will be made the budget for the coming year
 Although the school is badly over crowded, no building will be possible until large part of the present bur den of debt has been lifted, Mir. AL lison said, and it will be the possibly of the board to make the best of pres ent conditions until the financial situation improves. Supt R. E.. Womack has suggested the possibility of using the auditorium as a study hall, thus taking care of the overflow from some of the classrooms, and it may be found necessary to extend the halliday session plan to some of the higher grades, but everything pos sible will be done to minimize ex- penditures and reduce the indebted ness before providing for any expan- sion.
