PICTURE SHOW STARTS

Richland felt quite metropolitan
last Saturday night when a crowd Of
over 100 people turned out to our
first permanent moving picture show.
The credit for this entertainment lies
at the door Of our enterprising citi-
zen, G. S. Gibbs, who has purchased
fine new Pathescope machine and
Will give picture shows regularly each
week in his hall in the Randall build
ing. The show Saturday night was
Tree to the public and was simply q
demonstration Of the work of the ma
chine.
Inc pictures presented Saturday
were all Of the very best, the subjects
ranging from the regular slap-bang
comedy which pleases the little folks,
TO the drama and instructive films
more adapted to their elders. The u.s.
uai glare which is attendant on NOV
ing picture performances was con-
spicuously absent and every picture
SHOWN on the screen was as clear as
any the writer has ever had the pleas
ure Of seeing.
everybody went home praising the
snow and inwardly as well as out
Wardly praising Mr.. Gibbs for his
well thought of enterprise, which will
neip to while away many a lonely
evening during the coming year.

ANNIVERSARY BANQUET

The Richland lodge of Odd Fellows

lodge last Monday night in celebrating
their anniversary. Over seventy-fve
members of both lodges were in at
tendance and the festivities kept up
until late hour, everyone present
declaring they had the best time in
their lives.
Everyone who took part in the play
Nevada" recently given under the
auspices of the Rebekahs, were invited
guests on this occasion, the lodge
wishing to do something for these
friends who worked so faithfully to
make the play dramatic and finan-
cial success which it proved to be.
Judge F. A. Howes, who was untir-
ing in his efforts in drilling the diff
ferent actors in their parts, was pre-
scented with beautiful Masonic en-
blem, in the form of watch charm
as token Of the appreciation Of the
lodge for his work in their interests.
Judge HoWes responded to the pre-
sentation speech with one of his US
ual witty and interesting talks.
Several men prominent in Odd Fell
low circles spoke for few minutes
on matters pertaining to the order,
especially interesting being the talks
of Messrs. Harry Wheelhouse and Os-
car Rollins.
At the close Of the entertainment
the ladies Of the Rebekahs served
complete banquet, which was highly
appreciated by their fellow lodgemen
in the Odd Fellows. The ladies hav-
ing the affair in hand and who, at
tended to its successful service were

HIGHLAND SHOW
IS now ASSURED
Committees are Being Organized
and Plans Formulated
for Fair This Fall

Committees are being organized and
plans formulated to hold carnival
in Anon park this fall. The date will
be announced later, as it will have to
be arranged so as not to interfere
with any other previously planned en-
tertainment Of like character in the
neighboring towns.
This should be great event for
Richland. We are now in position
to show the state and country at large
that we have one Of the finest pro-
positions for the farmer that can be
found in the whole United States.
The idea of the carnival is to bring
more forcibly before the general pub
lie the wonderful advantages of the
Richland district; its prolific vegeta-
ton, wonderful climate and the early
growing season. We should all make
a special effort to have at least one
exhibit to enter in competition at the
carnival, and if each resident would
do that much there would be no ques-
ton of the success Of the enterprise.
A special exhibit for children will
probably be arranged where the lit
tie folks may enter products which
they have grown themselves, appro-
pirate prizes being awarded to the
best exhibitor.
Get busy on your carnival plans, so
as to be ready with your best efforts
when the time comes.

N. c. P0INOExTER AGAIN
RESIDENT OF R|CHLANO
Trades for Holdings of Max Hopp
who Moves to a Large Ranch
Near Spokane

One of the most important trades
consumated in this district in the past
year, was completed last Friday when
Max Hopp traded all his Richland
holdings to M. C. Poindexter for $50
acres of land near Tyler.
The property owned by Mr.. Hopp
in Richland, is some of the most val
liable in the district, consisting of AZ
acres inside the city limits on which
is located a fine residence, silo, barns,
etc., while the other nine acres lies
just south of the city and is in
alfalfa. Mr.. Hopp traded out all his
household goods, farming implements,
livestock, etc., and will begin with a
fresh bunch on his new place. Mr..
Hopp also gave residence property
in Tacoma.
The $50 acres given by Mr.. Poin-
dexter in exchange for the Hopp pro-
perty consists of 90 acres of cultivat-
ed land, the balance being in pasture
and timber. 1t is estimated that there
are at least 1000 cords of wood on
the ground which can be sold for fire.
wood when cut. With the place Mr..
Hopp gets IL head Of cows, fine team,
80 thoroughbred chickens, all the farm
machinery, household goods, etc.
Tyler is located about q miles from
Spokane and is growing dairying
town, about the same size as Rich
land.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hopp and four child
rem left Monday for their new home,
their going being greatly regretted
by their many friends in Richland and
vicinity. Mr.. Hopp has always been
prominent in local politics, being q
councilman at the time of his leaving
here. Mrs. Hopp is a very talented
artist, her oil paintings, works in
pastel and charcoal having won prizes
in all the large fairs held in this state
in recent years.
We all hate to see them go, but if it
is to their advantage to make the
change, we can only wish them every
success in their new venture.

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 The many Woodlawn friends and ad- mirers Of G. w. Armstrong are anxious to see him reinstated as one of the ser geants of that precinct. None of us have ever been able to understand why he was dismissed from the force. We have never heard of any misconduct or in- subordination on his part; in fact, we know him to be above reproach, and, to our way of thinking, was one .the best that we have ever had at Woodlawn. Al ways on the job' thoroughly affabe courteous manly, kindly. active and at tentive, possessing all of the finer attri- butes that go into the making of real manly man.
 The most of the violations in our end of town are minor offenses committed by our youngsters, such as riding their bi cycles on the sidewalks. throwing rocks, etc. On such occasions, when brought to the attention of MT. Armstrong, he would immediately hunt the offenders up and give them one of his big-hearted heart to heart" talks, which in nine times out of 10 would be effective, and the offender would know and feel that Sergeant Arm strong was one of his best friends.
 There are. I am sure hundreds of mothers. fathers and little folks who would be most grateful indeed to see MT. Armstrong at his accustomed place. MT. Commissioners. why not gratify usf Yours truly IT. II, THOMS.

 Three buildings hitherto devoted to stock barns, fail to hold the exhibits crowded into every available inch of space. Space on the streets is also being used for the overflow. There has been no advertising. scarcely no preparation, apparently there was but little interest, and yet the live stock show has suddenly leaped into successful prominence.
 The Appalachian ranbe of mountains runs from the northeast to the southwest entirely through Taladega county, mak- ing many narrow, fertile valleys, and pouring from it's bases 52 clear running streams of never failing water. Sheltered from the winter winds, and open to the long days of summer the coves and val leys of Talladega afford an ideal locality for successful stock raising.
