rpHERE seems to be a very defl-
1 nite Allred-for-presldent move,
ment afoot In the land. From
Chicago last week came a letter
informing the governor’s office
that the Chicago Texas Society
was wholeheartedly behind him
for the presidency and that
chances for his nomination looked
exceptionally good in that section.
The Chicago Texas Society Is
the second largest society of its
kind In the country.
Texas Society is in
New York.
The governor’s
boom Is beginning to grow. It
was aided by the centennial cele-
bration and Is better known out-
side of Texas than within the
state.

Election of a board of directors
and naming of officers for the
Rusk County Fair Association and
the laying of tentative plans for
the 1937 exposition constituted
the chief items of interest at a
meeting of representative citizens
of Rusk county held at the ball-
room of the Randolph hotel Mon-
day evening.
The session which had been call-
ed by' the agricultural committee
of the Henderson Chamber of
Commerce was presided over by
C. W. Rettig who stated the pur-
pose of the meeting and explained
that the committee had arrived at
the conclusion that the people of
the county were ready to support
a county fair provided it was cast
on the proper lines.
After discussion of the topic it
was voted to go into permanent
organization.
In his remarks before the meet,
ing J. W. Harris explained that
the city already had a splendid
physical set-up—buildings, audi-
torium and grounds—an good as
any to be found in this section of
the country and that with the co-
operation of the citizenship of the
county generally and the city
council that the Rusk County Fair

recent months Jim Boy has grown
a great deal. So last week he vis-
ited Chief L. G. Phares of the
highway patrol to complain of his
predicament.
"Chief,’’ queried young James
V., "did you ever hear of the lit.
tie boy with the big britches?”
Chief Phares couldn’t figure out
the young man’s approach but he
laughingly admitted that he had
heard something about the little
boy with big britches.
"Well,” said young Jimmie,
“This uniform you gave me two
years ago is making me the big
boy with the little britches.”
The highway patrol office is still
roaring.

rpHAT little Incident brings up
JL another kid story which most
politicians will appreciate. A cer-
tain state senator was enroute to
Austin by train recently with his
wife and small son.
The youngster wandered down
the aisle and when next heard of
his mother heard his shrill, youth-
ful voice squeaking out above the
noise of the rails and train wheels
with this:
“Yes sir, my daddy is a sena-
tor. He’s a good criminal lawyer,
too, but he makes most of his
money being a senator.”
Needless to say the senator's
wife took her son back to his seat
and started a little coaching on
that subject.

As the trial of Art White and
Dave Moore of Oklahoma City and
George Muckleroy, oil-rich Kil-
gore negro, In connection with a
"Gabe McElroy” swindle opens to-
day in federal district court In
Oklahoma City four Henderson
people familiar with the bizarre
story of long Jost Gabe are there
as witnesses. Miss Hallie Fite,
deputy county clerk, Judge R. T.
Brown of Fourth Judicial District
Court, Bose Brown, colored court-
house janitor, and John Flanagan,
also colored, left Monday for the
trial.
H. H. Wellborn, former district
attorney, who was also summon-
ed as a witness, was prevented
from making the trip.
Years ago Gabe McElroy was
a bantam, bow-legegd little negro
who tilled sixteen and a quarter
acres in the Bunker Hill commu-
nity near London. He also
preached. Too much preaching
and too little tilling Is said to
have brought the wrath of "night
riders,” a secret band of white
men, on the little negro. It is said
that he left Rusk County In terror
about 1007. He never returned.
When Gabe’s sixteen and a
ouarter proved to be in the heart
of the oil field, numerous "Gabe
McElroys’’ turned up to claim the
tidy fortune.
Impostor Sults
Several of these impostors’ suits
for the oil land were tried In
Judge R. T. Brown’s court. Miss
Fite, as deputy county clerk, also
became familiar with the tangle of
litigation about the much-claimed
land. Bose Brown knew Gabe Mc-
Elroy. It is Bose who tells the
story of Gabe’s brush with the
"Night Riders.” John Flanagan Is
also familiar with the early life of
Gabe.
The two Oklahoma white men
and the wealthy Kilgore negro are
being tried for conspiracy to use
the mails to defraud. They are
alleged to have mulcted a Dallas
man of $2000 and an Oklahoma
City resident of $9000 by having
a bogus Gabe McElroy sell them
his Interest in his oil land near
Henderson as the "claim was be-
ing established.”

Mr. Harris stated that an Im-

fair a success and that the co-op-
eration of the farmers of the
county could be depended upon.

HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 28 (UP).
—England’s - leading comedienne,
Gracie Fields, has been signed to
a Hollywood movie contract, 20th
Century Fox studio disclosed to-
day.
The salary to be paid Miss
Fields was not made public but
reports were that it topped the
salaries of most Hollywood film
stars.
The studio had been anxious to
sign her for some time because
of her popularity in the British
dominions but Miss Fields refused
to leave England where she com-
manded a high salary from Brit-
ish studios.
Joseph Schenck, chairman of
the board of 20th Century-Fox,
then made a deal with Miss Fields
under which she will work for his
organization in pictures to be
made in England.
Mary Pickford today had signed
the first player for the unit she
is forming to make pictures for
United Artists studio, of which
she is a part owner.
He is Barry Fitzgerald, Irish
actor and formerly a member of
the famous Dublin Abbey Play-
ers. Fitzgerald was awarded a long
term contract by Miss Pickford
who declared he should be "splen-
' did” film material.
| Mary said she expected to sign
several more players soon and
would begin production follow-
ing her return from Europe in
May. Mary recently broke off her
successful partnership with Jesse
L. Lasky after that had made two
hit productions together.
Gustav Machady, European film
director now in Hollywood, today
reported that his wife, Maria Ray,
Italian actress, was traveling here
from Italy for a three-day re-
union with him and then would be
forced to return to Rome.
The round-trip will take 18
days, giving Miss Ray only throe
j days in Hollywood with her hus-
band. She cabled Machady yes-
| terday that she had started her
voyage but must be back in three
weeks to start a new picture.
