The Clifton Record lists Robert L Bald as a person of local interest. The notice notes the paper is entered at the Clifton post office as second class matter and mentions a weekly Friday publication with a one dollar yearly subscription.
The notice acknowledges receipt of a complimentary season ticket from the San Angelo Fair Association for a big event scheduled to take place October 5 and continuing thereafter.
The Record notes rapid subscription renewals and many new readers in its section, expressing confidence that a larger base of friends exists than funds. The piece frames community support as a key asset and hint at financial needs to sustain coverage.
On Wednesday the Clifton cotton market rose 15 to 20 points with spot sales at 12 to 12.25. Receipts are seen capped at 3,000 bales and production not exceeding 1,500.
