ENGLISH WAS OLDEST
 EMPLOYE OF STATE

Little Rock, Dec. 14.-The oldest employe or official of the state govern ment has just resigned. For thirty four years the lawyers of the state have been accustomed to seeing Pey- ton D. English in the office of the clerk of the Supreme Court. Failing health has induced him to give up the office, and w. P. Sedler of Crawford county, who has been deputy clerk for ten years, has been appointed his sue cessor. MT. English will retire Jan. I.
 Col. English, a son of the late Ebert H. English, who was Chief Justice in 1854, and again in 1874, dying in 1884 entered the clerks office during his fathers administration in 1881, as a deputy, and has held the office continu ously since that time; nineteen years age he was promoted to the chief clerkship, succeeding W. P. Campbell. He was also clerk in the office for q short time during the days of the Civil War, when the capital was removed for a short time to Washington, in Hemp stead county.

A Man With a Mission.

The usual crowd gathered about the runabout, offering suggestions to the amateur chauffeur, who found his en- zine stalled far from headquarters. The preplexed driver opened a tool kit and selected first one appliance, then another, till he had exhausted the sup ply of wrenches, pliers and cotter pins. Then he waited, completely baffled.
 Then from a nearby residence came a masterly, confident man, whose very presence radiated power and eff ciency.
 The newcomer took careful survey of the engine before he enquired?"
 Anybody bot a buttonhook?"
 Half dozn were instantly proffer- ed.
 Selecting the one nearest and plac- ing one foot on the autos tire, the lmasterly man caused sensation when he complacently observed.
 Thanks. came cut in hurry and forgot to button my shoes"

Decides Meeting Place

1 Washington, D. C., Dec 13.-Prei- minary skirmishes before the Repubi- can National Committee which de- cides tomorrow the time and place for the 1916 Republican National Conven- tion to nominate the party candidate for president were laid here today.
 On the surface the only contest of importance was that of the cities seek ing the convention. St. Louis and Chi cago were looked upon to night as the two most prominent in the race for the convention.
 Many political leaders seem to fav- or the suggestion that the convention be held before that of the democratic party in St. Louis on June 14, but there has been no canvass of mem bers. Opinion was divided, some ar gued that it would be folly to name a ticket and frame a platform the first week of June and thus give the party in power opportunity to turn their convention into an opposition rally.
 Others thought there was distinct advantage in firing the first gun. The claim of the contesting cities will be heard tomorrow. From indications tonight politicians were inclined to be- lieve that the meeting would not last more than few hours and the conven- tion would adjourn at night with it's work completed.

WHEN IS AN EASTMAN
 NOT AN FRESHMAN

Philadelphia, Pa., Dec. 14.-When is Ian Irishman not an Irishman and does he ever become thoroughly American ized?
 That is what First Sergeant John Fox, United State Marine Corps, re- tired after thirty years honorable ser vice with the coors, would like to know.
 Applying recently for a position as watchman at one of the large factories supplying ammunition to the Allies, Fox was told that the fact of his hay ing been born in the Emerald Isle over half century ago, barred him absolutely from such employment.
 Fox's discharges show that he fought bravely at Guantanamo, Cuba, in 1898, when a handful of United States Marines held in check thousands |of Spaniards there, and established a naval base at that point, but his thirty years of excellent service with Uncle Sam's sea-soldiers counted for naught with the munition makers.
 "Once an Irishman always an Irish man and we can't be too careful in the selection of our guards" Fox was told.
 Fox. who says he is intensely Ameri- can and absolutely neutral, cannot get their viewpoint, but isn't worrying much, for Uncle Sam pays him $70.00 a month retired pay.

REV. BARRETT GIVEN
 REGULAR APPOINTMENT

Little Rock, Dec. 13.-The Rev. Frank Barrett, formerly at the head of the Anti-Saloon League in Arkan- sas, has been given the regular ap- pcintment as pastor of St. Luke's M. E. Church, South, in Oklahoma City. It is probably the largest Methodist Church in the state, and considered therefore the most desirable charge that can be given a Methodist minis ter in Oklahoma. He was assigned to the church last fall as supply pas tor and at the recent conference he was continued permanently. Senator I. C. White of Pine Bluff has been elected to the Superintendency of the Anti-Saloon League work in his place.

The Most Punctual Man in Amer
 ica Is Its President.

In the January American Magazine James Hay, Jr., says in his article on the working habits of President Will son:
 Recently 1 asked one of MT. Will sons secretaries for his opinion as to the most important characteristic that is, routine and partly mechanical characteristic - in the President's s daily work.
 "Punctuality," he replied. There never has been in the White House, and l believe there never has been in Washington, a man who was so mar velously, might say incredibly, pune tual day in and day out.
 "'He is not only punctual himself but he requires punctuality from oth- CTS. If man is ever late once for an Appointment with the President, neith- CT he nor the President ever forgets it.
 I remember one occasion when he was governor of New Jersey, and a special delegation from the legislature was two minutes late in keeping it's appointment with him.
 Gentlemen" said the then gov ernor, taking his watch from his pock- ct, '''I am sorry to see that you are late.''
 "'"It is true that We are, and we wish to apologize" replied the chair man of the delegation.
 "'"I accept your apology, but hope it will not occur again,"' replied the governor"
