PICKENS SHOWS INTEREST
In Railway Project from Brcvard,
North Carolina.
Dickens Sentinel, Oct. 30.)

'IlCkellS oelltlllGI, oCt. 6U.)
We are giving space this week to
an article taken from the Brevard
News, and also some correspondence
with reference to proposed rail
road, which would come through
Eastatoe Gap into Pickens county.
The route proposed would mean
much to Pickens county, as it would
run through the county from the
North Carolina line to some point
on the Southern Railway.
IT Pickens county is to get this
proposed line they will have to get
busy, as it will go whichever way
the most inducement is offered.
An effort is being made now to
get some OF the committee from Bre-
ward to come to Pickens Court House
and explain in detail the entire plan.
When the date that they will be
here Is ascertained a mass meeting
will be called to hear what they have
to say They will discuss the mat
ter with Pickens county citizens, and
it is to be hoped large attendance
will be had Of representative men
from every section Of the county in
terested. The date Of meeting will
be announced later. Pickens county
must not let this opportunity slip
IL any way can bo devised to meet
the requirments.

VIM. S. HART. SUNDAY,

The romantic Western frontiers
men and plainsmen of the days of
Bret Harte, Mark Twain and Fred
erick Remin gton may have vanished
forever, Obut they. live again, fervid
and realistic, in Selfish Yates" the
photoplay of William S. Hart, the
famous Thomas H. Ince Aircraft film
star. In this picture Mr.. Hart is of
the West, Western, and the living
embodiment Of those remarkable
characters by whom the west was re-
claimed. The theme of ''Selfish
Yates" is one Of selfishness. In this
play Mr.: Hart affords his admirers
an example of his best work, which
is improving vastly with each new
characterization he essays: The story
was written by c. Gardner Sullivan
and the picture was produced by Mr..
Hart himself under the supervision of
Thomas H. Ince. Jane Novak is his
leading woman and she has a. role
that brings out Mr.. Harris persona
ton in strong and satisfying con-
trast. "Selfish Yates" will be shown
at the Grand theatre Sunday only

SHEPHERD OF THE HILLS"

p. The widely read story of the
Ozarks has been filmatized under the
direction of Harold Bell Wright its
author, and will be shown at the Rex
today and tomorrow. As a novel
this story has attained popularity
which has not been equalled by any
other book in a decade. As play
the success of this work was pheno-
menal and as a pictureization under
the direction of Mr.. Wright the
story bids fair to mark an epoch in
the art of the silent drama.
The pictures have been taken in
the heart of the Ozark mountains and
in California. Mr. Wright and his
associates have been engaged for
months in their great work No ex-
pense has been spared No detail
overlooked. The countless millions
who are familiar with Mr.. Wright's
style and descriptive ability; those
who understand IN even a limited
way the scopeless possibilities Of the
metion-pieture camera can readily
