PURELY SOCIAL

Hello. How are you? Doesn't
it seem good 80 have a chance to rest
little and not have to dress up for
a party every afternoon or evening.
| certainly am enjoying this lull in
the social whirl but, believe me, after
Lent is over and the entertaining be-
gins again, | shall be ready to go to
everything. What's that? oh, you
like the material for my new dress.
l am so glad. / think it will make a
stunning gown for evening parties.
Are you sewing, too? I'm darning
all my husbands socks and mending
all our clothes so as to be ready for
the after-Easter social rush, Well
goodbye, I'm going to take a nap
have to get a little beauty sleep, you
know, while there's a chance"

AND UNDERWEAR
MIX AT SALES MEETING

Harness and fancy underwear
constituted the stock in trade of the
budding business men and business
women of the city of Pullman at the
fortnightly session of the salesman
ship class in Emerson hall Tuesday
evening, Fortunately, Miss Elma
Chamberlin, clerk at the Greenawalt-
Folger company, was selected to
sell the fancy neither garments,
while l.. B. Christian of Christian
Bros. harness shop was assigned the
task of making somebody believe he
needed a new set of work harness
Had the assignments been reversed
the propable result is a matter Of
conjecture. At any rate, Miss Cham
berlin proved her ability as a sales
lady when she sold" her wares to
Mrs. George Schroeder despite many
obstacles placed in her way. W L.
Greenawalt was so convinced of the
value of Christian Bros. harness by
Mr.. Christians sales arguments that
he bought" the harness himself
The sales classes continue to hold
the interest of the men and women
enrolled and great good is being ac-
complished in the way of better
craftsmanship and greater cordially
and Difference for the customers.

FALL WHEAT LOOKS GOOD

Fall wheat never looked better at

ion Of Pullman farmers who have
watched many crops mature in this

able growth. This week has wit
messed the disappearance Of a large

cred the hills and the south slopes
are bare, although considerable snow

Town Officials and Residents Want Protection For Traffic Cops at Bos- Geotgc W. Scofield-Ncws in Brief.

That Charles F. Lewis will be candidate for reelection as the ta, collector for Berlin may be adjudgec from the statement made to a Herald reporter this morning when Mir Lewis was asked as to whether or not he would run for the position. T have not said that l would not run agair and 1t is very likely that will be a candidate" Mir. Lewis replied to the question of the interviewer.
 Mir. Lewis was first elected tax col lector in the fall of 1914 and has served the town in that capacity since that time. He has always been con- sidered an efficient worker by his many friends in this town and has been proclaimed by many town off, cials to be the best tax collector Der lin has had.
 Perhaps the best work done by the tax collector was in 1921 when sev. eral thousands of dollars were due Berlin in back taxes and a special drive was made by Mir. Lewis to col lect The results of the drive net ted many thousands of dollars which the town had not collected in years,
 Mr. Lewis succeeded Elmer Austin as tax collector in 1914 and has at each election been rewarded by be- ing placed back into office. This year is expected to prove banner year for collections, Mir. Lewis said this morning and complete report will be published at later date.
 In addition to serving the town as tax collector Mir. Lewis has also col lected the personal taxes and is pro- secutor in the town court. He has acted as prosecutor for the past three years and if. reappointed next year will start on his fourth term. Judge Griswold has praised the work of Mir.

TEACHERS IN
 STATE NORMAL
THIS YEARS ENROLMENT REP RESENTS TOTAL OF 64 COUN- TIES, ECLIPSING ALL PREVI. OUS RECORDS OF THE INSTI- TUITION.

Conway, Jan. 11.-Already dis tinguished by it's remarkably rapid increase in student body, the Arkan- sas State Normal with the opening of the winter term has gains which eclipse the pse~iaus fine recprds> made. Enrolment for the past tlfa5s years shows that on Janpary ,, 1920, the school had paaapicNlated 320 stu dents, on Jsn 1921, 900, and on January 3, SflIfis year, 428. The total for the 1920 session of three terms was 440 and for 1921, 482. Officials of the school now forecast net enrolment of 700 for the three terms this year based on the ratio of increas obtaining for the last two years.
 Compared by terms, the present session of the Normal had total for its first term of BIO. With the open ing of the second or winter term, this leaped to 42o, straight gain of 42 per cent over the first term enroll- ment of 1920.
 Many factors have combined to produce the splendid gains registered by the State Normal. For one thing, more attractive salaries have drawn younger people into the profession. Another is the awakened public con science in regard to public school education and the demand of school boards for more competent instruc- tors. Still another is the thorough work done at the State Normal, which IS attracting some patronage which formerly went outside the state for study. Highly qualified to lead pub llic school education, the capable staff of the Normal has won for the school countless friends by being willing at all times to assist in any movement for the benefit of schools everywhere.
 This years big enrolment at the Normal represents 64 counties.
 Pulaski county has the following enrolled: Beulah Higginbotham, Thornburg; Helen Todd, Little Rock; Alberta Dunn, Natural Steps; Washington White, Little Rock; Sal lie Heilman, Levy; Ceorgena Pro- thro, Little Rock; Evelyn Wilkerson, Little Rock; Charles Kerry, Little Rock; Della Brown, Little Rock; Robert C.
