"NICK" ATHA8
Never does a day pasB that we are
sot awakened to the fact that there
is something unusual, remarkable
happening always—right under our
eyes. It might be the discovery that
we live over a rich mineral deposit
or it might be that we are million-
aires, but today it is that our little
community—our Clarksville—is the
home of the first former DeMolay to
serve as master of a Masonic lodge
and also- the home of the country's
youngest Worshipful Master of th«*
fame fraternal organisation.
In a manner befitting one of his
caliber, Nick Athas opened and read
a telegram last week from the Grand
council of the order of DeMolay and
modestly accepted the congratula
tions of the bead of the order on be
tag the first former DeMolay to serve
In the aforementioned capacity.
Nick is young, full of "pep" and
fully realizes the necessity of work,
which may well be understood by ex-
amining his record. But this
"world's onllest" is extremely mod-
est and our desire to praise him at
great length muBt be clipped in the
bud, and we must close with these
words: Nick is one citizen of our
community of which every one
ghould be proud and his record in
Masonic work is one to be envied by
all.
PLOW THE SOIL AND SAVE THE
SEED
The Seed and Soil improvement 1-
dea seems to have grown to unlimita-
ble proportions since the meeting
beld here two weeks ago. A Smith
county farmer raised sixten bales of
cotton in five acres. In itself, this
should be sufficient incentive to in-
duce the Red River county farmers
to beed the words of those who know
and plant less and better seed on few-
er and better acres.
POWERFUL CAST IN
"CODE OF THE WEBT" |
Variety is the spice of life and di-
versification! will soon mean wealth
or poverty to the Red River county
planter, acording to whether be does
or don't.
Inumerable cars of feed-stuffs
were bought by looal farmers the
past year and this fact combined with
the extremely low prices received for
onr cotton are ample proof that these
bard earned "iron wheels" would
take on a much more musical tinkle
If rattling in the pocket of the man
wbo raises his own feeds in Red river
county than in the "one way" purses
of West Texas planters who realize
the Importance of raising food stuffs
for their own consumption and for
the markets..
POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENTS.

nounce the candidacy of the follow-
ing persons for the office designated,
pubject to the action of the voters

Jtfly 34, 1926.

R. J. WILLIAMS
Romance with a punch—that, in
a phrase, aptly describes "Code of
the West," which Luclen Hubbard
carefully adapted from the novel of
the same name by Zane Grey.
It is not'a period production, but
a vital, absorbing story of today—an
up to date, twelve-cylinder 1925 ro-
mance of a frivolous flapper and a
rugged cowboy in which the view-
point of the east, as typified by its
jazz palaces, fast sets and petting
parties is contrasted with that of the
west, with its wholesomeness, sim
plicity and straightforward attitude
toward life and love.
Pictured against marvelous natur
al backgrounds—the colorful Tonlo
Basin, Arizona—and abounding in
breath taking thrills, two of which
include a tremendous automobile-
horse race and a spectacular forest
fire, "Code of the West" stands
bead and shoulders above the aver-
age so-called western because of its
unusual theme and original situa-
tions.
One of the outstanding features of
this photoplay is its strong vein of
comedy. There are many humorous
episodes and laughable situations
which have been logically introduced
to offset and emphasize the more
melodramatic moments. And it is
this shrewd mixture of romance, ac-
tion, drama and comedy that makes
"Code of the West" such marvelous
entertainment.
The cast in the production is one
of the strongest ever assembled for
any motion picture. Even the small-
est parts are played by actors of long
experience. As for the leading roles,
the fact that they are portrayed by
such sterling favorites as Owen
Moore, Constance Bennett, Mabel
Ballln, Charles Ogle and David But-
ler, is a positive guarantee that full
justice is done to the main charac-

There is a law on the statute
