BAPT|STS TO ASK
 FOR CONVENTION

At the regular monthly business meeting of the deacons of the Baptist church last night delegates to attend the state convention at Little Rock on November 13 were selected, as fol- lows: Dr. J. w. Conger, Prof. A. J. Meadors, w. B. Owen, J. Frank Jones, Miss Rosebud Vaughan and Mrs. J. R. Donnell The delegation was in- structed, through resolution passed by the deacons, to extend to the con- vention an invitation to hold the con- vention in Conway next year. As this is one of the largest state gatherings, homes would be required to accommo- date from 600 to 700 visitors.
 It was pointed out to the Log Cabin Democrat by a member of the delega- tion appointed last night that should Conway secure the convention 1t would be one of the biggest advertise ments the town could get. It would be splendid way to get the people in closer touch with our schools and the city doubtless would realize a great benefit if the body meets here, it was said.
