A. A. Anderson and j. S.
Hit were business visitors in
McCrory Monday and while in
town were pleasant visitors at
the Home News office. Mr..
Hit informs us that he with
his brother, sister and nephew
had motored from Tyler, Tex,
to McCrory ip two days and a
half. The distance is about
400 miles. Mr.. Hit says that
the crops in his part of the
country are fairly good but
that the crops of Woodruff
county are the best he saw on
his whole trip. Mr.. Hit is a
prosperous farmer in Texas
and we are always glad to
meet any stranger and always
extend the glad hand to every
one. We hope that Mr.. Hit
will be favorably impressed
with this part of the country
and will decide to make his
home here in the near future.
We appreciate the very pleas
ant call by the gentlemen and
extend an invitation to visit us
at any time for our latch string
