BOY MEETS GHOST!
Have you ever seen a gbost? WiHie'
Best, famed. Negro comedian has
seen three of them, and in three dif-
ferent movies!
The ability to react properly upon'
meeting a spectre has been one of the
main reasons for Willie's popularity
during the past few months. He
reaches the peak of hi3 career in 20th
Century-Fox's "Whispering Ghosts"
which arrives at the Texas Theatre
next Tuesday and Wednesday.
During the course of his exper-
iences aboard a mystery ship, Willie
meets several assorted spooks and
phantoms, plus several characters'
who are interested in doing him in.
These hair-raising etysodes are not-
particularly suited for people with
high blood pressut^, but WiMie man-
ages to see them through with excel-
lent fortitude—and lots of laughs!
TO THE CITIZENS OF
CHEROKEE COUNTY':
I wish to take this means of ex-
pressing my thanks to you for the
vote and support you gave me in the
Primary election I lost by 257 votes.
1 I have worked to make the schools
of Cherokee the best and I shall con-
tinue to do what I can to help.
