Scenic Beauty and Prosperity

by Pencil PHsherS.

The meeting Of the Arkansas
Press Association at Fayette-

one Of the most profitable ever
held by the newspaper men
of the state. The business ses-
sions were followed by an auto
mobile excursion of 155. miles
Saturday over the highways of
the North Arkansas Ozarks
which portrayed a scenic beau
ty and resourcefulness of that
section of the state amazing
to those who had not formerly
visited cur Northwestern coun-
ties.
The convention was held on
Mt. Sequoyah, overlooking
Fayetteville, and the editors
were guests jointly of the
Western Methodist Assembly,
owners of this beautiful noun
tain, and the Chamber of COM
merce of the city of Faycfte-
vile. The visitors were quar-
tered in the pretty furnished
cottages of the assembly and
meals were supplied, cafeteria
style, in the assembly dining
hall. The meetings were held
IN Tie assembly auditorium.
Friday afternoon the editors
visited the State University and
the State experimental station,
operated in connection. A
storm cloud came up and cut
their stay here short, but an
inspection tour of the campus
and buildings was made.
One who visits our state uni
versity cannot help but feel
how very foolish any sugges-
tion of its removal appears.
The buildings are massive
structures which would cost an
immense amount of money to
duplicate and the location is
healthful and beautiful. The
