HOL,DERNESS MAKES
 RECORD IN MASONRY

Lieut.. George Holderness, son of MT. and Mrs. H. I. Holderness of Pine Bluff, left yesterday for Camp Jack sen, Columbia, s. C., where he has been assigned for duty with replace ment battalion.
 Lieutenant Holderness is probably the youngest 32nd degree Mason and Shriner in the Country. If he isn't the the youngest, he's probably the only one who has travelled thru the blue lodge and on to the 32nd degree and the Shrine in less than four months. The Arkansas grand lodge has grant, ed several dispensations in behalf of young men serving the nation, permit tiong lodges to confer degrees in less than the regulation period Young Holderness was one of those who went thru the blue lodge in this way, about IA weeks ago. This week he was ad- mitted to the consistory at Little Rock, and to the Shrine in Pine Bluff.
 Lieutenant Holderness' father, Har- rv I. Holderness. was among those who took the consistory and Shrine de- grees with the young army officer.

MOTOR TO ARKANSAS
 FROM FAR NEBRASKA

Motoring from Spalding, Nebraska, to Pine Bluff, Arkansas in five and-a half days, including night and meal stops is the record of MT. and Mrs. A. w. Riggs, who reached the Hotel Pines last night just in time for sup per. They came from Paris, Arkan- sas, yesterday.
 MT. and Mrs. Riggs left Spalding, last Saturday. They spent an entire day in Omaha and half-a-day in Kan sas City. They are on their way to McGehee, near which town they re- gently purchased 160 acres of land. Whether they returned to Nebraska depedns upon Mrs. Riggs, who is in this section for the first time. The tract they purchased lies on the route of the as-Louisiana highway, and is partly cleared. About 80 acres is in valuable timber. MT. and Mrs. Riggs will today complete their jour- eyn to McGehee. They are travelling in Ford.
