Julius Caesar Nayphe.
This was an unknown name to
the people of this community a
few days ago, and it was with
not a little misgiving that the
owner of it was accepted as a
substitute for (iovernor Man
ship- The only ray of light we
had was the statement hv Mr.
Stout, manager of the Central
Lyceum Bureau, that lie had
been making good everywhere.
Well, he came among us, we
saw and heard, and he conquer
ed. To every member of the
large audience the lecture and
the man seemed to be not only
a surprise, but an unexpected :
and most pleasing one- Mr. Na
yphe is an artist in his work,
his every movement as he glid- j
ed about the platform, being the i
personification of ease and grace j
personification of ease and
grace.
From the moment he apperaed ;
garbed in the rich slowing robes
of the East, until his last word
he held the close attention of
his audience. The account he
gave of the experiences of him
self and sister and the difficul
ties they met in the mastery ot
| the English language upon their
| arrival here six years ago, he at
j t he age of sixteen, and she at
| twelve, were most interesting,
'and many of them very amusing
j The lecture closed with an elo
quent tribute to Miss America.

War On Tuberculosis
Little Rock, Dec. 9.—The se
cond annual meeting of the Ar
kansas Society for the Preven
tion and Study of Tuberculosis
was held at 4 o’clock at the
Chamber of Commerce. Dr. -J.
Is- Shibley, who was president of
| the society, died several months
ago, and Durand Whipple, first
vice president, presided.
The society expects to carry
on an extensive campaign this
year along preventive lines, one
portable exhibit. This exhib
it will be sent to such communi
ties desiring to carry on anti
tuberculosis work. The society
will also co-operate with the
State Board of Health in op
erating a health car and has al
ready received assurances that
an anti-tuberculosis exhibit will
occupy a conspicuous place in
the car.
Secretary M- A. Auerbach re
ported that 87,500 seals have al
ready been disposed of through
out the state. He said this was
encouraging, inasmuch as it
gave the officers knowledge of
the funds available for anti-tu
how»iilrwi.Q work*
“Of the proceeds of the sale
of stamps,” said Secretary Au
erbach, “90 per cent remains
here. Also the money must be
spent for tuberculosis work.
This is in accordance with the
agreement made with the Amer
ican Red Cross.”
The election of officers for the
next year was as follows; Pres
ident, Durand Whipple, Little
Rock; first vice president, John
Q. Wolfe, Batesville; second vice
president, Mrs- Jo Frauenthal,
Conway; treasurer, Miss M. H
McCabe, Little Rock. The board
of directors elected consists of
the officers and the following:
Dr.T. B- Bradford, Cotton Plant;
Mrs. W- A. Billingsley, Newport;
W. S. Roberts, Harrison; Senat
or C. C. Calvert, Fort Smith;
Robert E- Wait, Little Rock;
Rabbi J. Jason, Pine Bluff; Mrs.
J. Pittman, Prescott.
