 Tom Mix, Bridgeport's favorite male star Is coming to the Plaza Sunday night for four days in his greatest feature, Just Tony a story of his TemaEka ble horse. Based On Max 6rands @ novel 'tAlcatraz,'' it surpasses any story the popular star has ever mad and he makes the most of it with the able help of Tony. Motion Pic ture News Review says, Here is a

ist Excursion which Governor Da-
Wis of Idaho, promoted. The visit
of these men to this section will not
only stimulate the dairymen in the
Snake River valley into increasing
their herds and securing better
stock, but the advertising this coun-
try received as a result of the ar
icles written by these men will bring
to this country many other men
with dairy experience who will
help greatly in developing the dairy
industry in this valley. The possi-
biities of this section in dairying
greatly appealed to all of these ex-
perts from Eastern states and they
one and all have predicted that this
line will grow into one of our lead
ing industries within the next few
years and that no section of the U.
s. is better adapted to this business.
Other Activities
During the past year the Ontario
5000 letters and pieces of literature
to all parts of the U. S. Several
hundred replies have been received
and many people have written that
they would come here just the mo-
ment they could sell out. All liter
ature sent has related to the farm
ing possibilities of this valley as
whole and it is believed that the re-
suits from this advertising will be-
gin to show the moment that farm
lands commence to move in any part
of the country.
During the past year the Club
spent some money on Chicken
Show, a spraying demonstration to
check the alfalfa weevil and on
farm picnics and other matters of
interest to our community. The Fair
committee of the Ontario CONNER
cial club, ably assisted by great
number of our local workers, spent
several weeks of hard work in pre-
pairing for the amusement features
of the recent Malheur county fair.
That it was success in this line
was due to this effort on the men
at the head of this enterprise who
laid all of the plans and personally
saw tht they were carried out. That
the Fair was success both finan-
cially and otherwise was also due to
the community spirit that was
aroused in the minds of the Ontar-
10 people by the Commercial club.
While the Club has behind it
many things to justify its existence
during the past three years, yet be-
fore it are three things the foun-
dations of which have been laid,
which we hope to see under way be-
fore the end of the next year, any
one of which will be of great ad-
vantage to Ontario and Malheur
county.
