Helena, Ark, May, 27, 1920.
 Expecting that her hotel facilities will be taxed to the utmost when the newspaper men composing the Arkansas Press Association arrive with their wives and daughters and sisters and sweethearts on June 17th, commercial and civic bodies of Helena are al- ready making arrangements to care for the overflow from the hotels and rooming houses. Many private homes have been open for the occasion, and the problem of housing the visitors has virtually already been solved. Helena's hun dreds of automobiles will be placed at the disposal of the committee in charge, and various journeyings about the city and surrounding country will surely be an interesting and enjoyable feature of the entertainment program.

Holderness, special features were arranged and tn e privileges of the pool were ex- tended the visitors. From the natatorium the members of the party went to the Country Club where they were enter tained by the Arkansas Flu neral Supply Salesman's Club who secured the use of the club through the courtesy of MT.
