ROYAL ARCANUM
 MEETS TONIGHT

With the initiation of large class tonight by the local council of Royal 'Arcanum, the jurisdiction of Arkan- sas will have the 1000 members re- quired for the establishment of a grand council. Gen Jonathan Kellogg of Little Rock, who has been a member of the Royal Arcanum for 27 years and who, with Dr. G. D. Dickerson, or ganized the local chapter, will be pres ent tonight and deliver an address Gen. B. w. Green of Little Rock will be present also and make talk. Dr.. Dickerson has promised the members that he will attend tonight's program, and may say few words.
 The Conway chapter is the second largest in the state, with more than 125 members. and the fact that the re- quired number for the establishment of a grand council in Arkansas was initiated by the local council, Conway has a good chance of having the grand council located here.
 The degree work will begin prompt ly at 7:30 tonight so that the initia- tion may be completed early in order that the special program can be car ried out in full Refreshments will be served after the program. All mem- bers of the order are urged to attend.
