(From Hendrix College Bulldog.)
 On farm in the state of Georgia during the month of March. 1857, was born a healthy boy who was to come forth on the arena of life after the civil war to help mould the sentiment of the New South.
 This boy was christened F. s. H. Johnston. He roamed the fields in his childhood, and early learned to mediate and commune with nature and the Divine spirit. He joined the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, when only a small boy, and was licensed to preach in 1875. In 1875 he joined the North Georgia Confer ence, being immediately transferred to the Arkansas Conference. During the year 1885 he was married to Miss | Elizabeth Burrow, daughter of Prof. Burrow of Collegiate Institute at AL tus, Ark. She lived only few years. In 1892 he married Miss M. c. Ben brook of Fayetteville, Ark, a student l of the University of Arkansas. To this last union has been born five children, namely Howard, Warren, Allen, Catherine, and Edwin.

He was also manager of the Twen

He was also manager of the Twen- | tieth Century Educational Movement in Arkansas in 1900, during which time $100000 was raised for Hendrix and Galloway Colleges, Vanderbilt University, and some mission schools.
 In June 1909, the trustees recog- nizing the ability of Rev. F. S. H. Johnston as a preacher, scholar, manager, and as a builder, conferred the degree of D. D. upon him.
 He is known among his brethren in the conference as Dad" and as 'Dr. Fish" They rely on his memo ", his judgment and his position on subjects in general.
 Dr. Johnston does not talk much, but he is a deep logical thinker, and when he speaks he says something which is worth the time of any man to listen, whether it be from the pull pit or from conversation. He is a quiet, unassuming man, and much given to meditation. His sermons are l spiritual, logical in arrangement, | deep in thought, true to history, sound as to conclusions, and to prophecy. He breaches to his congregation and without notes. His language and pronunciation are good and free | from obsolete words and pronuncia- tions. One of his fellow pastors who is a graduate of Hendrix College said that pr. Johnston has improved | more the last five years than anyone l in the conference. The reason of this improvement is that he has con- tinued to read the best books, maga- zines, and papers. He knows the his tory of the past and that of the pres ent. And he has continued to make new sermons. In fact he is a hard worker, and he does not try to do things by worry but by work.
 pr. Johnston is now serving his thirty-seventh appointment And it
 
 as pastor. He is serving the most important pastorate in Arkansas Methodsm. The Conway congrega- tion is not the largest, having only seven hundred members, but Conway is the place where nearly all the young preachers of Arkansas Metho- dism are educated; also the institu- tion for training the teachers of Ar kansas is located here, as we'll as Cen tral Baptist Female College.
 Dr. Johnston succeeded Rev E. R. Steel as pastor. He was the man for Conway at this time for he had been connected with Conway as presiding elder, the past four years and knew the conditions and the people. On ac- count of the financial depression the $65, ,000 Methodist church which was begun under Rev. Steel's ministry was not completed but Dr. Johnston has been able by the aid of his mem- bers to arrange to begin work again on the new church. They expect to have it ready to hold the North Ar kansas Conference in next November,
 Dr. Johnston says that he believes that he can do the best years work of his life this year. His members are beginning to believe it. He is at present in a personal campaign which will last until Easter Sunday. His aim is to enlist his members to win people to Christ one by one.
