COLE ACCEPTS
 FAIR PRESIDENCY PRESIDENT OF FARMERS' UNION WILLING TO HELP MAKE
 BIG EXPOSITION.
Organizes Corn Club Here as Part of the General Work of Assisting
 Farmers of the State.

George Cole, president of the Farm CTS Union of Arkansas, yesterday in- dicated to special committee ap- pointed by the State Fair Association that he would accept the presidency of this big exposition if 1t were tell dered to him after stockholders meeting in December.
 The incident was the carrying out of a general movement by the fair association to make this big State Fair a real state enterprise, giving it state wide interest through the farm CTS unions, and causing the farmers of the state to make their ehibits here in competition, thus building the real foundation of the annual exposi- ton.
 MT. Cole was accompanied here by H. s. Mobley of the State Farmers Institute of the Arkansas Industrial School, and both made addresses at the court house yesterday afternoon to farmers of this county after which Boys Corn Club was organized, which later will have strong mem. bership here.
 In line with this same work was , an address at the council chamber last night by Clinton Slmonton, on "The Riddle of the Universe which was specially directed to labor Or. gsnization and the improvement of the conditions that surround the work ing man.
 l.. H. Moore, secretary treasurer oi i the State Federation Of Labor will al-c made an address in the counci chamber tonight on "The Condition of Organized Labor Throughout the South" These meets are we'll attend

COLE YOUNGER WAS HERE BEFORE scoUTED THROUGH. HOT SPRING VALLEY WHEN THERE WAS
 NO CITY HERE.
Only Few New Orleans People Ever Came Here Then, and They Bathed
 in Holes About Mountain Front.

Recalling period of more than forty years past, when Hot Springs valley was only unusual from sur rounding valleys because of the hot. water that flowed out in the creek from Hot Springs mountain, Cole Younger last night told of how he secuted through this place more than forty years ago.
 In his address at the Auditorium Theater he made no local references, but on the stage, while waiting for the curtain call, he talked interesting ly of his last visit to this section. That was long before there was any. thing here to indicate that city would follow.
 "Only a few New Orleans people ever came here them said MT. Younger. "They would come, with their train of negro servants, make camps and bathe in the pools dug out along the ground on the hill sides. Northern people never came until after the first railroad was built MT Younger recalled the trip he made through here scouting, hunting l pickets, and that was even before the old barracks had been established by the federal government. That bar | raelxc was n, thp nraeant oita of. tba Park Hotel and many old citizens will recall how it's reveille used to reyerberate through the wooded hills that now mark the downtown district of Hot Springs
 Cole Younger Is not the type of man one would picture after the stories which have filled the young mind oi his deeds of daring. He is rugged but heavy, and books more a type o veteran politician, congressman ol southern judge, than a wesaerner wh, had spent the last twenty-five yeari in Minnesota prison.
 His address is interesting and ha
 that added enthusiasm because spol
 ell by the principal himself of man
 of it's thrilling incidents. MT. Youne

 up in time for him to spend Chris
