 Little Rock, Jan. 24.-The en- iertainment committee of the Little Rock Press Club met Fri day afternoon and took up the question of entertaining the Ar kansas Press Association, at it's mid-winter meeting, to be held in Little Rock, February IA.
 As this meeting is to be strict ly a business one, the Little Rock club will save the greater DOT tion of the resources for the an- nual meeting, to be held here in May. It was agreed to entertain the editors at luncheon hour, and after the business of the day is over, a theatrical party will be given. At the conclusion of the regular bill the members of the local press will present a farce for the edifcation of the visiting quill drivers. This will be heavily laden with local hits, or ones which will be especially appreciated by the members of the association.
 It is expected that fully 100 editors of Arkansas will attend this meeting. The proposed newspaper legislation will be the principal business for the meet ing.
