While summer ijtrings these oppor-
tunities for greater pleasure in the
out-of-doors, these very pleasure,
bring them increased dangers and
actual loss of life. Since this is true,
it is most important that all insured-
om-ons be cerain that their premium•.
are paid promptly so as not to rur,
the risk of having their insurance
lapse. If you have a premium that
will become due while you are away
from home, arrange to pac it before
you leave. Truly "it is better to b.'
safe than sorry."
If you ;«:e not adequately insured
then by al! means take immediate
steps to secure additional insurance
before the summer holiday season
begins. Authoritative figure.- show-
that the chance of accidental death
rather than death from old age j,.
two to me. in 1 '. "it), accirferitlrl
deaths in this country reached th ■
staggering total of over 110,000. Of
these fatal accidents, .'57.MOO were
caused by motor vehicles, hut i thing
that will amaze most folks i- that

Stay in there, Doc, and pitch thac

We ie with c 'ti a thousand per cent,
and we'll ifo the limit. Bastrop is
certainly standing upon the thre-
hold of an opportunity tha' in a i
probability will never be opened t"
us again. Every small town i- built
■ ■ inml its school sy-tcm Itastrop ha;
.1 good system, but it hasn't the phy-
sical equipment for progress. Now r>
•" it a nly the time for al! good men
' i forward and take an active
part in placing Bastrop'- scho il
building on the ground. There is *i ►
ground for argument against a new
school building. We need it and must
have it. The universal reply to ho
suggestion is invafitbfv, "Can ev-
11oi d it"'" There wa- never anv
thing worthwhile produced that -om •
individual or some group of indiv
dual- didn't have to make a sacri-
fice to make it possible. This is .i
time when every good citizen should
want to make a sacrifice for this
purpose, and those who are not will-
ing to make a sacrifice evill have to
support it if the majority of the pe .
pie in Itastrop are willing and anx-
ious t() ST" foi ward and not backward.
Life is an inclined plane; it is nev-
er on 'he level. Individuals and com
munities <io not find a happy set
tling place. They are either plod
ding up with progre.-- m sliding back
with failure. When a man admits
failure, it is usually complete with
him. He is of no further benefit t >
his h"nie. his neighbor, nor his state.
He becomes a burden upon the shoul
der- of these who would go forward.
Bastrop has few failures in men, and
it must not let failure become a com-
munity calamity. It i- true, ther"
are mane ->f us echo are not securing
the amount of this world's material
we foinierly did; hist that is not fail,
ure, jt i- -.imply a detour. Those of
us cvlio hold the future of Bastrop
as ,i pet-on,al charge placed upon us
is a heritage from our forbears an.-
have accepted this responsibility ir>
the life of the community evill accept
this challenge and go forward to cor
quer, not a foe, but a personal leth
argy that we have allowed to sett •
