                        ARKANSAS HISTORIC SITES

 Mrs. LINCOLN. Mr. President, today I recognize six Arkansas 
historic sites that have been added to the National Register of 
Historic Places. These Arkansas landmarks help define our State's 
history and heritage, and I am proud to see them included on the 
National Register.
  The newly listed properties are:
  The Century Flyer at Conway, a miniature train manufactured by the 
National Amusement Device Co. of Dayton, OH, around 1955.
  Arnold Springs Farmstead at Melbourne in Izard County, featuring a 
vernacular Greek Revival house built around 1857, plus several 
outbuildings.
  The Walnut Street Commercial Historic District at Walnut Ridge, with 
buildings dating to around 1875.
  Fargo Training School Historic District near Fargo in Monroe County, 
where Black children attended school between 1949 and 1968.
  Old Searcy County Jail on Center Street in Marshall, a 1902 Native-
stone building influenced by the Romanesque style of architecture.
  Cherry Street Historic District Boundary Expansion at Helena-West 
Helena.
  Along with all Arkansans, I congratulate these communities for 
receiving this national recognition. I also salute the local officials 
and residents of our State for their efforts to maintain the beauty and 
history of their communities.
