The Carter Express
VOL. 13. No. 2
CARTER. BECKHAM COUNTY, OKLAHOMA. FRIDAY. MAR. 16. 1923.
GEO. W. CAIN. EDITOR.
A Good Word at The Announcement To The
Ri jlit Time.
by Barney Hogan.
There isn’t a day but what
somfone is “looking Carter over
for a location. Among the many
were the Strange Brothers of
Sentinel and Hone Wolf who were
here last Friday looking for a
location for a bank. Many of
our citizens are acquainted with
the above gentlemen as they
have been in the hardware busi-
ness at Sentinel and Lone Wolf
practically ever since these towns
had their first business establish-j
ment. In addition, they are own-
ers of a number of the best farms
in Kiowa and Washita counties.
Also, they have a brother that
seven figures are required to e-
numerate bis wealth in dollars.
Carter not onfy welcomes these
gentlemen but all live and wide
awake business men and women
who can see a bright future for
Carter.
B. Hogan.

Don’t Miss “The Prairie Rose” Wed. Night, March 21, Majestic Theatre.
by Dr. M. Shadid.
I am convinced $hat Carter is
to have an oil field. As a small
hospital will no doubt become a
necessity I am moving to Man-
gum for the purpose of obtaining
some hospital experience hoping
to return next Fall or Summer,
if oil developments justify and
build me a small hospital.
I wish to thadk all those with
whom I came into professional
relations. I feel deeply indebted
to many of you beyond any
words of expression. I have at
all times done my very best duty
as I saw it, keeping in view the
best interests of the patient re-
gardless of consequences.
During my ten and a half years
stay in Carter I made many
friend and of course a few en-
emies. No man with a little
principle and a little backbone
can get along and hold his self-
respect and not make a few en-
emies—not if he be a public man.
Before leaving I purged myself
of any ill-will that I might have
harboured against any one. The
older I grow the more I realize
that men are more and more the
product of environment and early
train lng afF.’. they are what they
are because they are what they
are by virtue of previous educa-
tion and circumstances in life.
There is littlq . oom for what we
are pleased to term free will—al
though that does apply in the
small affairs in life and then in a
limited way.
SCHOOL RE-OPENED
High school opened up again
Monday after a week’s vacation
for the flu. A majority of the
teachers and pupils were able to
start back Monday and are now
going right ahead as though
nothing had happened to inter-
fere with their work.
Bill Simpson was an Elk City
visitor Tuesday.
“A Prairie Rose” Wednesday
