After teaching in one of the State
Colleges during the summer term,
Miss Ruby Mixon spent a few days
at home with her mother, then early
this week left for Fort Worth where
she has again accepted a position in
one of the city schools. Miss Ruby was
a student of the State University last
year doing work on her degree.

H. B. Dorsey of Fort Worth was
here Monday for a few hours stay;
and the purpose of his stop here was
to visit the poultry farm of Mr. C. E.
Wiederaenders near town. He had at
one or more times bought some of
these fine Buff Orpingtons and said
they were the finest bred-up chickens
he had ever owned, and we have an
idea that he bought several more on
this trip. Mr. Dorsey is 6ne of the
leading wholesale grain dealers of
the state and for a number of years
was secretary of the Texas Grain
Dealers Association, ahd is a very
close friend of Mr. Frank Kell of
Wichita Falls, a former Clifton citi-
zen, and was closely associated in a
business and social way with Mr. G.
J. Gibbs during the last few years
of his life. The Record enjoyed a so-
cial call from Mr. Dorsey while he
was here Monday, as did a number of
others in the city.

We have read where a number of

do something like that some summer

banks in Clifton.
