citation met in the commercial club
rooms to complete preliminary arrange
ments for the big show that takes
place here Feb. z, s, and 10. AS
much as possible all features of the
show were discussed, as it is to be
of much more than local Importance.
The handling Of the show will be no
child's play, but will necessitate much
hard work both mentally and physically
to the successful carrying out OF the
elaborate plans. The following COM
petent officers were chosen and COM
mittees appointed:
President-Leslie Stinson.
Secretary-H. w. Sims.
Assistant Secretary-O. J. Thomas.
Treasurer-F Fl. Haverland.
Advertising Committee--Jas. Lyons.
l.. G. Hazlett and c. w. Graves.
Arrangements Committee - officers
or association and A. r. Turner.
The association decided that the

mittees should necessarily be appoint
ed at once and further committees
VIII be named as the occasion de-
mands. There is now every indication
that the big show win be held in the

holding the auto show in that build
Ing is practically completed.
Judging from the enthusiasm shown
at the meeting yesterday, the show
will be rousing success, and there
will be on display the finest line of
up-to date cars ever exhibited in the
state. The first annual automobile
shown fact, the first automobile
show ever held in the state-put on
here last winter served to give the To-
cal dealers some decidedly valuable
pointers on the carrying on of the
show and this will add to the success
Of the exhibition next month.

GOT DRINK OF
The PURE GOODS
GOOD STORY HAS LEAKED OUT
ON NORTHERN PACIFIC
OFFICIALS.

Bismarck, N. D., Jan. 5.--The fol-
lowing story told by one of the state
officials of North Dakota has probably
never been told:
A couple of years ago when Presi-
dent Howard Elliot, Land Commits
sloner Cooper and other N. P. officials
We're driving over survey that was
being made by the company up near
the Square Butte Creek In Oliver
county, they remained one night at
the home of German rancher.
The German, who was one OF the
pioneers of that section, had former
ly been sailor and not averse to
taking nip Of something stronger
than beer.
He observed with Considerable more
interest than he himself realized. no
doubt that they poured literally
from bottle and drank before eating
and before retiring, what he thought
of course must be a good quality of
gin.
1t was somewhat out OF the ordf-
nary and great disappointment to
him that he, as host, was not invited
to join in the drinking.
He managed so that he stood quite
close when they were serving their
drink before breakfast the next morn
ing and when well filled glass was
finally handed him he remarked that
1t contained a larger portion than he
was in the habit Of drinking 80 early
in the day.
Never mind, go ahead and drink"
said President Slliot, its pure goods.
The look of surprise and disappoint-
ment that came over his face when
he drank evidently greatly amused the
railway officials for they smiled
broadly when as the rancher lowered
the glass he smiled and said rather
ruefully, Water. bottled water"

VOLUME THREE
 NOW READY

Following the start made in historical research work in the State is the appearance of Vol ume 3, of the publication of the Arkansas Historical Association. The last book, although sched- uled to be ready .last year, was somewhat delayed by lack of sufficient funds to pay for the printing.
 The copies are just off the press and are being sent out by Dallas T. Herndon, secretary of the Arkansas Historical Com. mission, from the office in the new State Capitol.
 In the preface of the new edi- tion is the announcement re. garding the permanent organiza. tion of the history commission. Owing to the failure of the gen. eral Assembly of 1909 to pro. vide for the printing of volume 3, arrangements were made by the last General Assembly for a permanent basis on which to car. ry on the movement to preserve the history of the State. The statement is make that the laws of the legislature regarding the history commission are funda. mental and thoroughly establish the cause of preserving local history.

INCREASE OF LUNG CAPACITY
Experiments Have Proved That Sys. tematic Exercise Will Do Much
 Toward That Purpose.
