TO HOLD COUNTY
 FAIR FULL WEEK

The week beginning October , and ending October 10 was selected as the time for the fair.
 The fair will again be in charge of J. A. King, who has managed the past three annual fairs. AS MT. King had been elected on the board, his title was changed to that of secretary and the position of manager was abolished. This is in conformity with the custom of nearly all fairs.
 Postmaster H. B. Ingram was re- elected president of the Faulkner County Fair Association, position which he has held since the inception of the enterprise six years ago. w.. D. Cole, Jr., was elected vice presi- dent, J. A. King secretary and J. w.. James treasurer. The three other members of the board of directors are Jo Frauenthal, J. s. Johnson and J.. B. Higgins.
 The entire board pledged it's hearty cooperation to make the sixth fair the biggest event in the history of Faulkner county Much enthusiasm was shown at the meeting and it is believed the fair starts out with brighter prospects than ever before.
 The board will meet again Friday night for the purpose of making some arrangements to liquidate the indebt- edness of the association and provide funds for advance expenses. Secre- tary King said the deficit was only about $500. The board will also at this meeting make arrangements for the publication of the catalogue, upon which it is hoped to begin work in the near future.

EASTER SERVICES | LARGELY ATTENDED
IDEAL WEATHER PREVAILS
CONWAY CHURCHES HOLD SPE- CAL EXERCISES-NEW MEM
 BERS RECEIVED.
From Mondays Daily.

From Mondays Daily.
 With ideal weather conditions pre- vailing the crowds which attended the church services in Conway yesterday were the largest ever seen. Special Easter services were held at the Methodist, Presbyterian, Baptist, Christian and Catholic churches.
 At the Methodist church, following the regular Sunday school period, Prof. c. J. Greene of Hendrix College delivered an address on the Import ance of Decision," yesterday being de- cision day at that church. The pas tor, Rev. E. R. Steel, delivered strong sermon at II o'clock on "Res- urrection," at the close of which 13 new members were received into the church.
 The evening services were held at the Presbyterian church, being in charge of the Epworth League of the Methodist church and the Christian Endeavor of the Presbyterian church. A very interesting program of music and short talks was rendered. The seating capacity of the church proved insufficient for the large number who wished to attend, several being forced to go elsewhere.
 At the Baptist church Rev. w. H. Sledge, an evangelist of Helena, preached on Heaven" the audience filling both the auditorium and the Sunday school room. A special mis- sionary program was given by the Sunday school, and collection of $50 was taken for missionary purposes. Seven additional members were taken into the church at yesterdays ser vices, making total of 13 for the week. Rev. Sledge preached to men only yesterday afternoon
 An interesting feature of the days services was the mission exercises held at the Baptist Sunday school. A special program, prepared by the board of missions and consisting of dialogues, songs and readings repre- senting all nations of the world, was presented. The church was crowded and 425 regular pupils of the Sunday school were present. A collection for missions amounting to $50 was taken up.
 Services at the Christian church were in charge of the pastor, Rev. J. Clarence Dawson. The regular EaS- ter services were held.
 At St. Joseph's Catholic church mass was held at 8 and at 10 o'clock yesterday morning, followed by ves- pers, and benediction at 3 o'clock. The services were conducted by the pastor, Rev. Peter Zell
