2,647 bales of cotton frpm the

Bogata citizens have present-
ed a petition to the commis-
sioners court at Clarksville, ask-
ing that the voting precinct at
that place be divided, creating
two boxes. This petition came
in too late to be handled this
year, as the law prescribes that
election precincts be created
only at the August term of
court. Action was passed for
the time, but may be taken up
next year if Bogata citizens
still desire it. The Bogata pre-
cinct is the second largest in
Red River county, Clarksville
No. 1 being the largest.

The Deport Theatre, owned
and operated by W. T. Furger-
son, will install Sound pictures
next week, and the first pictures
to be shown as all-talkie will
appear Friday and Saturday of
next week. Silent pictures do
not supply the entertainment
given by the talkies, according
to Mr. Furgerson, and at heavy
expense he is installing this ad-
ditional equipment to give his
patrons first class entertain-
ment.

Members of the Red River
County Sheriiff’s force destroy-
ed 350 gallons of whiskey last
week when they poured it into
the jail sewers at Clarksville.
This stock of liquor had ac-
cumulated from various sources
and it was poured out in com-
pliance with an order from Dis-
trict Judge R. J. Williams.
Something like twenty gallons,
held in connection with cases
pending in district court are
still on hand.
Probably the largest attend-
ance within the history of the
Deport school marked the open-
ing of that institution here
Monday morning, and especial-
ly is this true in the high
school. There were also many
patrons and friends of the
school present for the exercises
in the auditorium, where a
splendid program was rendered.
Superintendent D. D. Stringer
brought a message of welcome
that bespoke confidence in the
work he expected to see done
this year. The response was
by Albert Hutohinson, president
of the Deport Community Club,
who assured the faculty and
student body that the business
interests of Deport were sup-
porting them solidly.
Readings by Emily Ruth
Webb and Prentice Hayes were
enjoyed, as were the violin
solo of James Hearn, a vocal
solo by Mary Dean Oliver and
the vocal duet by Rev. S. r M.
Dunnam and Kenneth West-
brook.
Rev. W. Avery Rogers, pas-
tor of the Baptist church, made
the principal address, primarily
to the students, assuring them
there was no easy road to learn-
ing, but anything worth while
that they acquired always cost
in time and energy, citing many
examples of successful men and
women who acquired fame and
fortune thru close application
and long hours of study.
Mrs. J. H. Moore, president
Third district Parent-Teachers
Association of Texas, address-
ed the gathering upon the work
of that body, and urged that an
active organization be maintain-
ed here for the benefit of the
school.
Mrs. L. H. Igo, president of
the local P. T. A., announced
that a meeting would be held at
the school building Thursday
afternoon for the purpose of
re-organizing for this term of
school, and urged parents to
take more interest in the work.
Superintendent Stringer then
introduced members of the fac-
ulty, who were heartily ap-
plauded, and the meeting ad-
journed, students going direct-
ly to their classes, which had
been arranged and organized
last Friday.

tended the third annual com-
munity fair held at Bogata last

ing was used as an exhibit hall

spite of the long drouth and
the fair was considered a suc-
cessful one.
Judges announced their de-
cisions late Friday. Two com-
munity exhibits and one indi-
vidual farm display were enter-
ed. Rosalie won first place in
the community division and
Johntown was awarded second.
