Dear Editor of the Star:
As I have not seen anything
from this part of the county I
thought I would step in for a
chat.
We have had fine rains in the
last two weeks and everybody is
jubilant over the crop prospect,
the cotton especially.
Victoria Singing Class met
Sunday at its regular time and
elected delegates to the Singing
Convention to be held at Swenson
the 2nd Sunday in August. Del-
egates S. A. Carmen, Miss Maud
Carmen, Mr. and Mrs. Lindsey,
Will Rogers, G. A. Hicks, Miss
Alma Edwards. A good crowd
at the Singing.
Say Mr. Editor you ought to
come and see our fine fruit belt
of Stonewall county. She is a
hummer when it comes to fruit
and vegetables. In fact anything
you want to grow. The water
melons are smiling on the vines
out here.
