McCrory Editor First To
Scene of The Cyclone.
Pictures Published In Ark
ansas Gazette Yesterday
Were Made By The
Home News Editor.
Full and Complete Report Together
With Views of the Wreckage
In This Issue.
The Home News Editor was one of the first to the
scene of the terrible cyclone which visited Arkansas Tues
day evening. With his camera he secured about 20
views of the ruins at Judsonia and also some pictures of
the results of the storm at Heber Springs.
We have secured these pictures and the details of the
storm at considerable expense and hope that our readers
will appreciate our efforts in giving them the most pictori
al report appearing in any newspaper in the state.
We have many other pictures of the storm now on
display in our windows and would have had them in this
issue but for the fact that we could not get newspaper cuts
made of them in time to use this week.
The remains of the home of Louis Teames of Heber Springs in
which he and his son Louis, aged eight, and his daughter; Marie,
