 #*# #### # x x 7he Arkansas Press Association Meet.
 When I left home l had not fully made up my mind to attend the an nual meeting of the Arkansas Press Association, and that is why 1 got i'll one day late We'll as press agent for the fairies 1 have to be very careful to obtain the approval of the Wan dering Fairy for everything of any importance attempt to do. If ev- erything moves along nicely 1 know l have her approval. If, however, everything goes wrong, 1 know she does not approve and that had bet ter quit We'll, when l got over to the county road l was oyertaken at inc postoffice by Davy Boyett, who was on his way to Little Rock with q load of hogs. He invited me to ride with him, which I did. Mrs. k. J. Reynolds of England, his sis fer, with her niece, was with him, and they informed me that they were expecting Allen Boyett, of Little Rock, to meet them in his car, but before he came we met Prof. B. M. Huddleston and Mrs. Kramer, as- sistant county demonstration agents, in charge of the boys and girls club work, and l then changed to their car. Now, as Wanda, the fairy, had so nicely arranged transportation 10 Little Rock for me, l knew she ap- proved of my trip.
 l got to the press meeting in Hot Springs on the last day. A fine lunch was served us Iii the DeSoto Springs pavilion At night there was a dance there for the young people in their Japanese room. This spring is simply good pure drinking water and not hot. It Is one of the incest places on the government reservation. We all enjoyed ourselves there huge ly. At night at the home of Gov. Jno. A. Riggs a delightful time was had by the members. Cake, ice cream and punch of pure grape juice was served on the lawn. Ye scribes met there at 7:30 D. m., which gave them time to attend the dance at the De Soto Springs.
 Cienwood on the Caddo.
 Next morning the special train so generously furnished us by the Mis- souri Pacific railway pulled out for Clenwood on the Caddo at 6:30, too early for any of us to get full breakfast, and Geo. Rose, manager of the Western Newspaper Union, though the longest-legged man in the crowd, could not walk fast enough to get even bite of breakfast He was not the only one to have to go without breakfast.
 J. W. Kearney, manager publicity, St. Louis, assisted by C. K. Bothwell, assistant general passenger agent, Travelling Passenger Agent H. L. Fountain of Little Rock, were in charge of the excursion train and did everything possible for the pleasure of the excursionists.
 4 Muddy Liule Stream.
 We travelled alongside muddy little creek, which several said was the Caddo. It was disappointing, for, like Potapher of old, we all had much nicer streams at home in our own countries. To make matters worse every one of us was as hungry as wolf. I knew no better until we came to the Caddo river itself, when saw that it was really the Lovely Caddo." Shortly after that we came to Glenwood on the Caddo and after assembling at the station we all went to the park on the banks of Burnham-no Ii was a good din- ner on the banks of the Caddo. Oh, boy, we were all so hungry and that dinner was so good and plentiful, and the coffee was fine, which goes 10 show that the people who had charge of 1t knew that you can't please editors with a spread from which coffee Is omitted, while in at tendance of this annual event espe- cially. Some of the editors say that this spread or that spread was the best, but l tell you that the people of Glenwood just spread themselves and spread before the editors the best spread that they got on the en- tire trip and what made it appear all the better to me was that l knew we were welcomed from the heart of ev- cry Caddoan.
 Graham Burnham has written many nice things about Glenwood on the Caddo, but nothing which he has written was too good to be said of Glenwood and that offer of ten ax..1 a.4. L.. L.... f1. - Ill
