Some thirty years ago be moved to Denver, where he resided until about ten years ago when he moved to Green Forest to sphnd the remainder of his declining years. The past three and half years he has been sufferer understandable. He was almost already helpless invalid when he fell and broke hip, which made him more helpless than babe. He has since been unable te be moved only by being raised and lowered on a patented stretcher, which was the good luck of the family to become in possession of thru James Kirkham.
 Some three and half yeasr ago, knowing the care he would have to have, he had the little house built near his son, c. c. Kirkham, and he, with Mrs. Warren and Miss Ida, have given him every care and attention in hls last days. His wish was that Mrs. Warren have all his effects for her care of him.
 An impressive part of the funeral cortege was the elderly pail bearers, who had been lifelong friends and associates of Uncle Billie. They were Joe Erwin, w. A. Butt, c. N. Norris, Capt. M. V. Lightburn, o. c. Grim and A. J. Cox.

 Dear sir:-We have arranged to book you with ''The Long Chance" for your use on May 26. would like very much to comment on this feature. Never before in the history of your theatre have you been requested in a more serious manner, to get out and hollow your heads off about feature production.
 realize that when you boost pie ture sky-high that the picture must back it up otherwise you loose prestige l with your patrons, but 1 want to conscienciously state that Frank Keenan in our six reel production "The Long Chance" is at his best and l have seen him in nearly every pro- duction he has appeared in, and if you want to give your friends the best treat they have eyer had, get them into your theatre on the night of May 26.
 beleive that fully appreciate the kind of picture that will suit the majority of patrons in Green Forest. l recall my visit to your city about two and half years ago, and was very much impressed with your little city and consider it one of the neatest, cleanest and most attractive towns in North Arkansas and your theatre cer- tainly does credit to Green Forest and should receive the cooperation of every inhabitant, for without question 1t is equally as nice as.any theatre in North ern Arkansas.
 But am going to get back to the context and conclued by stating that every man, woman and child failing to attend "The Long Chance" is going to miss the best production that they have ever had opportunity to see.
 Wishing you success, we are Yours very truly, J. H. Crowley Mgr.
