women of the state. The association
has no other object than to secure
the preservation of the old statehouse.
1t is soliciting no funds, the only mon
ey raised being that secured from
the membership fee of 81. The small
sum secured in this way is being used
to furnish few rooms in the old capt.
tol and defray the necessary expenses
of the association. The association
asks only that the statehouse be pre-
served and turned over the various
women's organizations to be used as
an exhibit hail.
1t is not thought likely that an eff
fort. will be made to restore" the old
capitol, as those most active in the
movement to preserve the building
declare that the principal object of re-
tanning the structure would be defeat
ed # it should be remodeled or con-
verified into modern building. They
wish to see only such repairs made as
are necessary to prevent the old build
ling from deteriorating further and to
leave the structure in much the same
condition as it is today.
Eminent authorities on art have pro-
nounced the old statehouse to be one
of the most beautiful types of the old
classic architecture in existence today
and have expressed the hope that the
structure viii be preserved, if for
no other reason, because of its artistic
value. There are other reasons of a
sentimental nature, however, which
prompt the movement for the preser-
walton of the building. Older than
the state itself, the structure has been
the scene of some of the most stirring
events in the history of the common
wealth, and is associated with the
progress Of the state from the time of
its organization.
The material side Of the movement
is shown in the plans for the installa-
ton in the building of a comprehen-
sive exhibit of the states resources,
as well as of collection of historic
relics and documents. 1t is believed
that in this way the old capitol can
be converted into show place that
will be of benefit to every portion Of
the state. A start is already being
made in this direction and a complete
exhibit OF the states agricultural
products will be installed in the build
ing before the next legislature con-
venes. This work is being done by
Z. w. Watson, state agent in charge
OF the farmers cooperative demon
stration work of the United States de-
partment of agriculture. Mr.. Watson,

Little Rock.-The movement for the
preservation of the old capitol build
ing, work on which was started before
the state of Arkansas was born nearly
80 years ago, has gained force rapidly
during the past few months and when
the next general assembly convenes,
great pressure will be brought to bear
upon the members to induce them to
take such acton as. will insure the re-
tention Of the old statehouse in its
present form.
