TIME, WITH THE HIGH UP PEOPLE

Texarkana, Ark.-Tex. You may
decide that l am the most movingest
man in this country, for when you
think / am at one place / am a thou
sand miles away from there, and be-
fore you can say scat am somewhere
else. am now thinking about get
ting me flying machine in order that
l may move just a little swifter.
want to make me a trip up to Mars
to get acquainted with the people up
there and come back and tell you
about them. have told you about
people all over this country, and they
tell me that / could make a news
paper writer if ] would not use so
much Il" and little more you"
| would like to know whose bust
ness it is. / was cut out to be a
farmer, and lived for a long time on
my farm in Kansas, until / was dis
covered by the editor and he asked
me if ] would like to write for his
paper, and when / refused he told
me he would make me a riding around
writer, and l accepted, and if he has
not made me a writer it is his fault
and none of mine, for he promised to

1 have been in this place before.
1t is right on the line One side of
it is in Texas and the other side in
Arkansas, and l am on the Arkansas
side, although have been in Texas,
and my next letter to you will be
from Texas. find that we are max
ing wonderful progress, and we are
giving to the world young men who
are really looking upstairs, and who
are going to make the world know
that they have lived and wrought. l
have been in company with one since
l have been here, and / am now ready
and willing to doff my hat to him,
Prof William T. Daniels, supreme
secretary of the Supreme Royal Cir
Gle of Friends of the World.
In this city / have a number of
friends, so that Mrs. Mrs. s. A. Mat
this, learned that was coming to
town, she notified Secretary Daniels,
who is indeed a busy man, and he
hitched up his automobile car car
rage, and drove down to the Mis-
souri, Pacific stage to meet me, so
that when the iron horse pulled up,
he was right there with broad smile,
one that would rival the Gold Dust
Twins, and I smiled right back at
him. He toted me over to my stop
ping place, and then around town,
landing at his Office.
I have already told you that he is
Supreme Secretary to the Supreme
Royal Circle of Friends, and this is
one of the largest and strongest fra
ternal organizations in this country.
l found Mr.. Daniels Office to be a
veritable beehive, and, believe me,
them bee clerks were one more work
ing set. They were getting out the
mail, getting ready for the day or
the closing of the day Saturday
Thousands of dollars had poured into
that office, all day long, and Mr.. Dan
iels was getting ready to transfer it
to the supreme treasury, and to Mrs.
Lula B1ount, the supreme endowment
secretary-treasurer. 1t was wonder
full, and I want to congratulate. Prof
Daniels on the business-like methods
and system he has in his Office. One
of the best / have ever seen since l
have been in the world, and you know
your self l have been knocking around
some.
The Royal Circle of Friends was
born in the fertile brains of Dr.. R A.
Williams, whose home at the time
was in Helena, Ark, but now is in
Chicago, Ill. I note that DR.. Viii
liams, who is one of the leading ply
sicians in this country, took into his
confidence some friends and decided
on the organization He studied out
the secret works, and when he was
through, the organization started, and
in a short time it had spread all over
Arkansas. Since then it has been go
ing all over the country. DR.. R. A.
Williams is called supreme president,
and next to him is DR.. R L. Red
mond, who is supreme viee-president,
and then comes Mrs. Sopa Batson,
supreme governess; w. 7. Daniels,
