LITTLE ROCK LETTER

Little Rock, Aug. BOA complete will convene January 10 next reveals some interesting facts. It appears that only Il members of he last house were reelected, which is prob ably lower percentage than has been true of the legislature for a number of years. Several members were defeated for reelection, among whom were I. M. Campbell of Faulk- ner, Robert L. Carson of Marion, J. R. Goldman of Miller, Chas. E. Sul- finger of Mississippi, F. L. Carter of Pike, J. L. Turner of Pope, E. C.. Bagley of Pulaski, H. c. Limbocker of Sevier, James H. Choate of White Thirteen members of the House have served in sessions previous to that of 1919 so that there is atotal of only twenty-seven members in the body who have had legislative ex- perience. Peter Deitsch of Phillips county was promoted to the senate. There are eighteen hold-over mem bers in the senate and three of the members were reelected, Greed Caldwell of Jefferson, Houston Elm ory of Garland and Ben H. Johnston of Waldron. This leaves fourteen new men in the senate of whom five have had previous legislative expe- rience.
 An analysis of the returns show that the road situation had consid- erable to do with the results in many of the counties, but the. de feat of many of the old members can | not be entirely ascribed to this cause 1 Tn some instances radical opponents of special road legislation have been reelected; in other counties the nominees are ardent supporters oi the good roads program. So it ap- pears that there will be sufficient ! divergence of opinion among the members to insure spirited con troversy in any effort that may be made to enact volume of road leg 1 islation such as that which char acterized the sessions of 1919. In a few counties the republican: have made nominations and 1t is ex
 pected that the usual number of tht
 minority party vii be elected to tho senate and house, probably not more l than half a dozen at most.
 Legislative politics is beginning tt
 be talked freely among the member:
 and their friends. At least three

BASEBALL WITH WHISPERS
 PLAYED IN BENTON HARBOR
Literary Digest.)

What would you think of base ball hero decorated like Samson be- fore Delilah went back on him! And what would you think if you saw nine men bewhiskered and long haired besporting themselves around baseball diamond? You would probably think it was visiting nine from Russia, or that the Bolsheviki had given up the idea of destroying governments and setting up a dic- tatorship and had gone to playing baseball. Perhaps if some of these thirsting for something wild and desperate to do tried baseball for a change there would be less Bol- shevism in the land. It takes a lot of energy to play baseball on a midsummer afternoon. But to return to the whiskers. In Benton Harbor, Michigan is religious sect known as the House of David, which

has one of the fastest. hines in that part of baseballdom. From the New York Globe and Commercial Ad- vertiser we learn that the whiskers grow in accordance with Leviticus xix, 27, where it is written, "Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard. "; The Globe account continues:
 Every member of this club sports full set of whiskers with long hair reaching almost to the belt-line- They make very startling and un- usual picture as they cavort the diamond.
 However, they are very good ball players, despite their long hair and whiskers. Last season they won thirty-five of the fifty games play ed, and rank as the best semipro team in Michigan.
 The Chicago Cubs have been after their star pitcher, Bro. Paul Moon ey, but he refuses to desert his teammates for any consideration Brother Mooney is first-class twirler, and there is little doubt but he would make good in fast com pany. He pitched twenty-four games last year and won sixteen Of them. Can you imagine the sensa- tion this bewhiskered gent would create around a major league cir cult?
 Mooney IS not the only star of this long-haired club. The have a bearded Babe" Ruth in the person of Bro. Jess Talley, who can drive 'em high and far. Bro. Jess hit ten homers in thirty-five games last season and finished with batting average of .324. Brother Frank Wyland hit .319.
