The Chickasha daily express. (Chickasha, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1899-current, 1920-01-16

The first street railway in the
world was the New York and Harlem
road, built on the Bowery in New
York city and opened for travel from
Prince street to the present site of
Union square, in November, 1892 Two
horse-drawn vehicles fashioned some
what like a stage coach of the period
were run over the line on the day of
the opening, carrying as passengers
Mayor Walter Bovine, the city coun.
cilmen and other invited guests. The
affair attracted many spectators and
convinced the most skeptical that the
new horse cars were certain to be a
great convenience. The road was ex-
tended to Murray Hill in 1888 and
reached the Harlem river in 1889.
Fares were paid in silver sixpences
of the old Spanish currency then in
circulation, and one of the roads orig
inal features still in existence is the
old Park avenue tunnel under Murray
Hill. Horse cars were discontinued in
New York city on July 26, 1917, when
a few officials of the New York Rail-
way company and the public service
commission boarded an old car of the
Bleecker street line, and took turns
in driving the antiquated vehicle on
its final trip.

DEPICTED IN
"HITCHIN' POSTS"

These pestiferous days of II. c. L.
represent transition period in times
of reconstruction similar to those of
q half century ago when depleted for
tunes in both North and South kept
the country rocking in financial inse-
curity. Parallels between the days
of 1920 and those of the los are
easily drawn in "Hitchin' Posts" a
mighty timely picture. in which Uni
versal stars Frank Mayo at the Co.
lonial theatre today.
Then. as today. there was great ex-
citement over certain rich oil lands.
New districts were opened to home
steaders and thrilling land rushes
took place. One of those land rushes
was depicted at Universal City when
Jack Ford filmed "Hitchin' Posts
Vehicles of every description from
surreys to wheelbarrows participated
in the spectacular race.
Frank Mayo is Jefferson Todd. a
gentleman who lost his estate to his
brother in-law, Union sympathizer.
Resorting to cards as a livelihood,
Todd is the unknowing cause of an
old Southerner's suicide. and later he
meets and falls in love, with the
daughter. Feeling that the girl Ian
not be for him. Todd bends his ener-
gies to assuring his future. The Gull
mination of his adventures is hand
to-hand fight over a petroleum pool
in the western country. The photo
play ends as good photoplays always
end.
The scenery Is remarkable, the
photography excellent and the grip
ping romance is of the kind that
makes one glad he has come to the
theatre.

day will be the fourth episode of THE

WILLIAM FARNUM
I'm A SPANISH
ROMANCE

There is every reason to believe
, that all records for attendance at a
motion picture in the Augusta Opera
house will be broken this week when
William Farnum appears there Fri

turer," his latest William Fox pro-
duction.
In this play. Farnum is at his best
He is always good. but with the op-
portunities afforded him in this Won
derful story by E. Sheldon Lloyd, he
seems to surpass himself.
F'arnum is type of actor who has
what is known as personality plus.
He has more than a pleasing screen
presence and it is in these romantic
roles that he is always at his best
THE Adventurer" is delightful sto-
ry and the man voted to be the best
lover on the screen has ample oppor-
tunity to display his art.
THE Adventurer" is based upon
the fortunes and misfortunes of an
impecuniouS count who lived in
Spain at time when gambling was
at its height and when noblemen

of Mexico and Peru. In those days
duelling was popular. and the man
who would not draw his sword to
avenge an insult or to protect a wom-

The hero is the rollicking type of
romantic lover that suits admirably
the great actor. who is seen as Don
Caesar de BaZau William Farn,1m
is at his best in such a role. and he
will win new laurels if people who
have seen him in his latest produce

Sweet Corn Growers
Meeting Today in Auburn

A special meeting of the State AS
ISOLATION of the Maine Sweet Corn
Growers will be held at ii A. NJ. today
Thursday at the rooms OF the Cham
Der Of Commerce in Auburn. {. II.
Crawford of the Agricultural Depart
ment, who will attend. said on Wednes-
day that at this meeting the sweet
corn accounts from few OF the coun-
ties will be presented, showing the
cost of production for the present
wear per acre. These accounts will be
the basis from which the price of the
cut corn for the season of 1921 will
be made Said Mr.. Crawford:
The sweet corn accounts are prov
ing not only highly instructive to the
growers but through their publicit!
the consumer realizes as never before
that it costs real money to produce
farm crops and that in the future,
when the actual cost accounts, strictly
kept by the producers. are given 10
the public they will realize that the
farmers in the past have been produc-
ing and selling to the consuming pub
lie at an actual loss to themselves.
We had at the beginning of this
year over 500 applications for these
cost account sheets and accounts be-
gun by the sweet corn growers. 1t
is confidently expected that with the
assistance that has been given by the
cbunty agents and Farm Bureaus that
the majority have been kept through
the year and will be balanced early in
November The association expects
to have at least 500 such accounts
kept during the year 1921.
las l said, these accounts are prov
ing very interesting and instructive
to the farmers and will un1uestionabiy
lead in many cases to a general farm
accounting-a thing much to be de-
sired by the producer and the con-
sumner. as where accounts have been
kept for a series of years they will
show the farmers in many instances
the necessity OF, changing their sys-
TEN of farming. Because, il is a fact
that when they show an actual loss
year after year on any given crop. it
will certainly convince the grower
that he must adopt different line of
farming"
