COTTON AND TEXTILE
 MILLS A CERTAINTY

One would have to search far
 and wide to find more ideal con-
 ditions favoring the location of cotton and textile mills, than are to be found in this immediate vicinity, said V. M. Wallace, in dustrial director of the Arkan- sas Power Corporation, in talk before the Board of Governors of the Judsonia Board of Com- mercelast night.
 With the comDletion of the great hydro-electric unit in course of construction near your city, the advent of dependable electric power added to your al- ready numerous advantages, will pave the way for the develop ment of Judsonia into a thriving prosperous manufacturing city of several thousand people be- fore the passage of but very few years
 Such has been the demand for adequate and dependable power all over the north that in most instances before the completion of the generating unit the entire power capacity of the plant has been contracted for by public utilities and man. ufacturing establishments
 Already, and we have made no active campaign as yet for in we have many inc les for locations for cottod and textile mills. 1t is interesting to note these inquiries in a major Sty of cases prefer information relative to communities such as

 Rev. DuLaney, evangelist. who is assisting Rev. Wade in conducting the revival meetings in the big Methodist Tabernacle tent, is making a good impress ion here. Large crowds gather each night to hear him tell the story of the Redeemer's work and several conversions have al- ready taken place.
 It is sure thing that the great hydro-electric dam will be built, as such clean business men as Virgil c. Petite, Nathan Greg ory, pr. James and their many associates have put their minds and money behind the project.
 The citizens of White county who are not familiar with II question should visit the dam site and see for themselves how favorably the Creator left every thing for man to harness the stream.
 A visit to the dam site will convince the most skeptical that the dam will be built and the power generated. All should get behind the project for self in- terest as it will mean much for the development of White coun- ty and every person in the coun- ty will reap benefits.

 "The reason for this is easy to explain. Transportation facil- ltles, nearness to raw materials, accessibility to distribution cen ters, abundance of native labor, mild climate, modern, progress i've communities and economical living conditions are factors to be considered together with de- pendable power in the location of cotton and textile mills.
 'In your particular instance you can eXcellently qualify to meet these conditions. Located on the main line of the Mo.-Pac. Railroad. you not only offer un- eXcelled transportation facilities but you are in close proximity to the largest distribution cen ters. A glance at your map will disclose the fact that this sec ton where the countly's largest cotton crop is annually produc- ed and the hill lands where na- tive American labor abolnds. This section offers an unusual fcombination of favorable adva : tages as to almost solve all the problems entering into the man. ufactur of cotton textiles"
 We have onlv limitedtime to discover which communities are willing to grasp the oppo1- tunity offered them, says Mr. Wallace.

ly contingencies beyond control We will obligate ourselves un- der a corporate surety bond to build our plant and lines, provid- ed that in a sufficient number or towns there shall be subscrib- ed a sufficient amount of our preferred stock on OF before August 1, 1922.
 Cities and towns, therefore. desiring electric power sheuld complete subscriptions on or be- fore July 31st, under the speoif- lc provision that no subscription IS binding unless total of S6OO.- 900 of preferred stock shall have been subscribed to at par. This Is a simple business proposition. The terms of payment to be cash and payable 20 per sent as fol- lows: Sept. l, Oct. 1, Nov. 1, Dec. l, 1922, and January 1 1923.
 The quota of 8 per cent pre- ferred stock of the Arkansas Power Corporation to be sub scrlbed for at par by the people of Judsonia and vicinity is S20,- 900.
 Only those towns subscribing to stock and contracting for D }w- CT will be served from our first power development.
 We are hurrying these neqo- tiations with you in order that advantage may be taken of pav sical conditions in the L title Red River to enable the comple- tion of the works by February 1923. We have raised the money necessary to build the elecric generating plant.
 We regard this as an opor- tunity for your city and urge you to contract for power and to subscribe to your quota of stock to build the transmission system as early as possible.

Interesting Story as Told BY Promi'
nent Skowhegan Citizen

Perhaps 1t will be of some interest
to our, readers to note the following
story about one of Skowhegan's aged
residents, who Is now deceased. His
name was Abraham A. McDermid, who
resided for many years on one OF the
Weston farms. Mr.. McDermid had a
large family of children and times
appeared to be quite hard for him to
earn fair living and pay for his
farm. When the interest came due he
was unable to make the required pay
ments and this circumstance made
Mr.. McDermld feel rather down
hearted. One day he was at work In
the field and was saying to himself,
what shall | do, What shall | do?'
In response to these remarks, he
heard a voice say Go to California. =
He replied, "How can |. II costs $100?'
"Sell your oxen" was the reply Then
the voice said, Go to California and
join the expedition who are search
ing for gold and proceed up the Sac
ramento River until you come to a
path In the woods and then follow
the path until you see tree, turned
up by the roots, and there you Will
find in the earth some gold" Mr..
McDermid sold his oxen and went to
California, found the gold and return
ed with the same. He bought back
his oxen. paid the mortgage on his
place and built a new barn. with the
money he had so fortunately found.
He lived at that time on the original
Eli Weston farm. Mr.. McDermid was
true Christian. following the Bap-
fist faith. This story was toh by
Mr.. McDermid himself to Sewell
Smith of Skowhegan.
