Please explain what you mean by ``work''. You didn't say what you
thought these customizations should do, in your opinion, and without
that it's very hard to guess what's wrong with them.
What I see is that you customized the initial frame and the default
face, that's all.

Do you want all frames to use the outline-arial font? Is that it? If
so, did you try customizing default-frame-alist to specify that?
