Oklahoma in the Days
When Red Man Ruled
Schoolboys and Girls and the Grown-ups of Newark
Will Have Opportunity to See Some Actual
History in Motion Pictures
The people of Newark will
be given an opportunity soon
to see the educational value of
motion pictures in history,
when a thrilling story of early
life in our neighboring state
of Oklahoma is shown at the
Royal Theatre in this city.
Much of the country now
comprising Oklahoma was
once known as “No Man’s
Land.” A portion of it was
set aside for the. Indians, and
no white people were permit
ted to settle on the land.
But the white man has al
ways been a great conqueror
and in many respects he con
aiders that “Thou Shalt Not'
was not written for him. This
is true of the white people
who first invaded the Indian
country of Oklahoma.
Brave-hearted and courage
ous were these men and their
women-folks. Pioneers in a
new country where dangers
lurked at every turn, they
blazed the trail to civilization.
The story opens with a
wagon train of home-seekers
making their way across “No
Man’s Land” in the H0,s, show
ing how they were attacked
by outlaws and all but Henry
Clendmorc and his five-year
old stop-daughter, Lahoma,
were killed.
'I ho lil1.lt girl was adopted
by him law: and grew to young
womanhood among the Indiana
and outlaws.
I der, when the country is
opened to settlement Ihe fa
mous “Land Rush” of April 22
1889, is shown, followed by
events of the cattle period.
When a cattle king sent his
cowboys to drive “squatters”
off the range, Will Compton,
an Easterner who had heard
the call of the cattle country,
nut Lahoma. He staked a
land claim and the adventur
ous romance that ensues be
fore he finally saver the girl
and mairies her makes a thrill
ing picture that is not only
splendid entertainment, but is
filled with events that stand
out true to life in the early
history of our neighboring
state.
The entire picture is handl
ed in a big and powerful man
ner, bringing before our eyes
in a manner that i- true to life
those picturesque, hazardous
adventerous days that are nc
more days that we can only
read about in printed pages
or see produced in life on the
motion picture screen.

The so-called Neosho plan
for development of small cit
ies and country towns, is one
well worth attention here in
Newark. It is supposed to be
specially useful in towns of
2,000 to .‘1,000 population, but
there seems no reason why
both smaller and larger places
should not adopt it. It seems
so promising that the agricul
tural bureau of the Pennsyl-j
vania Chamber of Commerce
began pushing it in that state,
and alreud; 12 communities in
that commonwealth ire carry
ing out this idea.
The proposition started in
Neosho, Mo., where it has
been in successful operation
for 10 years. It is a cc-oper
ative and advertising merch
andising system. It involves
these features:
(i) Monthly co-operative
“Golden Rule’’ sales, advertis
ed co-operatively, usually
through a sale sheet of double
page newspaper size, distrib
uted by mail to families with
in Ihe town’s trade area. A
similar result could be secur
ed by having an extra edition
or space in the loeal news
paper.
(2> Auctions on these sale
days for the benefit of the
farmers, where they can trade
surplus live stock and'.other
material than produce.
(3) Regular social meet
ings of the merchants with the
farmers. The advantages of
such a plan are obvious, and
the places that have tried it
seem very much pleased with
it. It succeeds because it pro
vides for advertising, for se
curing new business from the
outlying country, for bringing
merchants and farmers togeth
er, and producing a sentiment
of unity and mutual interest
among all elements. Such a
plan would work admirably in
Newark.
The feature for farmers’
sales is a very important one,
in this scheme. Farmers like
this chance to buy and sell
and will travel a long distance
and do a lot of trading at a
place providing this opportun
