WHERF THE FEAR OF
DEATH IS UNKNOWN
In the trenches when a
man’s candle was snuffed out,
they ^aid he had gone West.
In the Northwest when a
man’s heart has stoped beat
ing, they talk about him tak
ing “the one-way trail.”
And in the same- way in var
ious parts of the country ex
pressions have sprung up
which describe a man’s pass
ing out, his transfer from this
world into the unknown.
Around the attempt to send
a man to kingdom come has
been built a gripping photo
drama, called “The One-Way
Trail” which will be shown at
the Royal Theatre Friday night
It features the noted actress.
Edythe Sterling, in her latest
Republic picture.
A better selection of a star
could not have been made by
the producer, than Miss Ster
ling. If there is one woman
in screendom who does not
fear to take “the one-way
trail” it is she. She seems tc
have been created with all
consciousness of fear and dan
ger left out of her make-up.
It is all a bright glorious ad
venture to her, life with death
at the end of the trail; and sh
! seems as ready to enjoy tht
| latter as she is to revel in th(
former.
There is no stunt, no hazard
too dangerous for her to un
j dertake with a smile. In '‘The
j One-Way Trail” she is lashed
I to a huge log along with a man
I who plays the role of her lov
er. That log was then shut
down a steep incline into a
rapid flowing stream.
No one could state with any
I degree of certainty that either
the pair would emerge from
ihoir heart-rending ride alive.
There was the chance that in
diving to the water the log
might strike something and
e me down on top of them, or
that they might hit another
massive piece of limber and be
smashed beyond recognition.
There were innumerable j
other possibilities of danger |
and death. But did Edythe I
Sterlng falter for a instant? j
Not she. She was as eager for
the trip as most of us would be
for a trip down the “shoots”
at Coney Island.
“Can’t beat that girl,” was
her director’s comment, “she’d :
ake ‘.the one-way trail’ with a
grin that would soon merge;
into a merry laugh.’
Walter Alexander died at
Paragould on Friday of last
week, following a short illness:
of pneumonia. He was a son
of A. R. Alexander of this
place and the remains were
brought here for burial
Mrs. W. E. Lee ar
rived a few days ago from
Cotton Plant to spend a few
days with her parents, Mr. and
Mrs. J. W- Kinman. Mr. Lee
has gone to Arizona where
he expects to locate and Mrs.1
Lee will join him after spend
ing a few days here with home-,
folks.
At a meeting of the board
of directors of the First Na
tional Bank held last Friday,
T. M. Harrelson was elected
cashier to succeed W. W. Jer
nigan who resigned to accept
a position with the First Na
tional Bank of Hartford. Mr.
Harrelson has been assistant
'’ashier for a number of years.

When Tobacco Was Taboo,
In 103S .the Massachusetts general
court ordered, a writer comments,
“that no man shall take any tobacco
within 20 poles of any house, or s0
near as liuiy endanger the same." in
170S an act was passed forbidding the
■■ifrying of fire through the streets e-c

having in one’s possession "npy.llghted
