ELECTION ABOUT
 10 GO BY' DEFAULT

Old General Apathy ruled so absolutely today that the city of Con- way came near overlooking its bien- nial municipal election. Although bal lots and poll books had been prepar- ed for the election of mayor, record CT treasurer and board of aldermen, the whole forenoon went by with scarcely an effort made to open polls in any ward. and it was not until ? o'clock this afternoon that all three wards were finally organized. It makes little difference in the result. however, whether dozen or 1000 votes are cast, as there is no opposition to the Democratic nominees for the municipal positions for the ensuing two years. The officers elected to- day will be sworn in at the meeting of the city council on Tuesday night of next week.

Little Rock, April Hive thou. sand people witnessed an exhibition game at kavanaugh field yesterday afternoon between Brooklyn and New York teams.

EVIL TO BE DESTROYED

It Is a strange record that every evil
which should have destroyed mankind
has itself been destroyed by mankind.
There seems to be something fatal in
humanity for an evil which succeeds
in invading 1t with menaclng power.
Humanity seems to be like those plants
which draw insects into their cups and
then close upon them and destroy and
consume them, says Dearborn Independ.
ent. A bad system of thought or &C.
ton takes hold Of the world, draws
multitudes Of good people into 1t and
1t certainly looks as If the whole world
Is going to the devil. But wait--after
all these good people are misled and
deceived, they destroy the system. It
seems to be predestlned that evil shall
be destroyed by what appears to be its
chief success The long story Of hu.
manity's contest with colossal evils
seems to prove this. And certainly It
Is a strong basis for that basic op-
timism which Is faith. g.,

DR.. Joseph A. Raycreft, Princeton's
director of physical education, has
come to a defense of the athletes
OF the past in an article In the Daily
Princetonian. Asked to compare the
present-day athletes with those of the
golden '9Os," the Princeton director
had this to say: II do not think that
in any sport, such as football, the
average man of the present needs or
possesses any greater intellect than the
players of 20 years ago. l played foot.

sure you that l pondered as long and
as diligently over plays as any cap

The athlete then had just as quick
wits as any man today However,
Doctor Raycroft declared emphatically
that many more young men in the TWEEN.

than was the case in other days. Hence
he believes that the modern boy is

Of that immense country he had lust

one who has a reason for not wanting

sees a mythicel objection to the Tow
ner-Sterling bill now before Congress,
which provides for Department of
Education and chief who Is mem
Der OF the Cabinet, and all over the
country little men of little minds echo
the cry OF epaternalism."
The Towner-Sterling bill requires
these three things in state before it
can receive the 'paternal' federal aid
to education provided in the bill:
|. A public school opportunity of
not less than "a weeks.
2. Compulsory attendance at some
school, public or private, for at least
"A weeks In the year, of all children

d English as the basic language Of
instruction in all schools, public and
and private, in the common branches.
The man who comes out in the open
and says those provisions are wrong,
Or un-American, or vicious may have
courage, IL not sense.
AS a matter Of sober fact, there are |
no real objections to the bill, even by
those who don't want it! The only
persons who don't want 1t are the peo-
pie who have always fought education,
who see In education Of the masses the
end Of spiritual and thus civil tyranny
But the people Of the United States
as whole want education, believe in
education, demand education, know
That education Is the one and only
