one of the largest in the state. Last week the matter was definitely de- cided and plans were adopted. When this matter was under discussion be- fore the Board of Church Extension at Dallas last May, Bishop Hoss told the board that Conway is the most important center of Methodism in Ar kansas, not forgetting that Little Rock, Fort Smith, Pine Bluff, Texar- kama, Hot Springs and some other places are in Arkansas. It is certain that our Conway people "do things" Western Methodist.

GOOD ROADS DAYS
 TO BE SEPT. } AND 4
GOVERNOR GEORGE w. HAYS EXPECTED TO ISSUE PROG
 HAMPTON SOON.

Little Rock, Aug. 16.-At the re- quest of J. M. Thomas, county judge of Nevada county, Governor Geo. w.. Hays will soon issue proclamation setting aside two days early in Sep tember, probably the 3rd and 4th, as Good Roads Day. The proclamation will be sent to every county judge and official all over the state, requesting that the people get together on those days and work a road across the county, or several in a township, so as to get them in good condition be- fore the fall rains begin.
 Governor Hays is a good roads en- thusiast, and when Judge Thomas wrote him making the suggestion that he issue the proclamation, he immed- lately decided upon favorable ac- tion in the matter. Judge Thomas stated he had been to a good roads rally at Willisville, in his county, and the people there, after working con- siderable road, adopted resolution, asking the governor to issue the proc lamation.
 'If I have hobby" announced Governor Hays, after reading the let ter, ''it is good roads. l believe that I travelled over enough of them in my campaign to know good from a bad road, and I want good roads ev- anywhere in Arkansas. Nothing will build the state more rapidly than good roads.
 Arkansas will this year have the greatest crop in its history. We must get together and build roads which will stand the strain of the heavy traffic, which will be necessary to get this crop to market. If the roads are shaped up properly in the early fall, there will be little trouble with them during the balance of the year.

WHICH OF THE SMOKE
 ST ACKS IS THE HIGHER?

The big steel smokestack for the new boiler at the city light plant is supposed to be exactly the same height as the one which was erected about three years ago. Both rest on bases of the same height, and the stacks are only a few feet apart. Looking from the north of the public square the old stack seems to be high CT by two or three feet than the new one, but looking from the same dis tance south of the plant, the new stack is apparently the higher. A bracket has been placed on the top of the new stack, to which will be at tached a 250-watt light, which can be seen at night for distance of several miles.

Now that Williams has polished off

observed IN a hitting manner at their

up to the reputation of being high
class entertainers, and will always be
sure of a. warm welcome in Bridge
port. Mr. Oviatt showed himself TO
be the master of Interpretation and
technique in Parker's dramatic tenor
solo, 81 Shall Come Back.
Mr. Weller was superb in a ring

exhibition by the Guards of Joseph
Dowdau Lodge was very interesting
and well executed. The Kroeger piano
was used, and caused much favorable
comment because of it's pleasing tone.
