much good could be accomplished by
such a union of interests. The Herald
feels sure that the Business League
would welcome such a union and
would strive in every way possible to
further the common good. It is a
fact recognized by all practical peo-
ple that the interests of the city and
county are identical, and that the co-
operation of both is necessary to a
full measure of suocess.

A DAILY LESSON IN HISTORY
One Hundred Years Ago Today.
J815—Rev. Louis W. V. Dubourg was
appointed bishop of the Roman
■ Catholic diocese of New Orleans.
Seventy-five Years Ago Today.
1840—The new census showed New
Orleans and suburbs to have a
population of more than 100,000, a
gain of-100 per cent in 10 years.
Fifty Years Ago Today.
1865—South Carolina repealed the
ordinance of secession. The first
colored student was admitted to

Twenty-five Years Ago Today.
1890—The famous Alhambra Palace,

1914—Rheims was occupied by the

A Waco editor reminds us that the

We are exporting ship loads of

The Herald believes a good busi-
ness year is ahead of this section. If
the local business concerns will get
up and hustle they can secure a big
trade that will otherwise go to mail
order houses or to some other town.
The business can be had if we makte
the right kind of effort for it.
-o-
The business concern, private firm
| -
or corporation, that fails to take as
its working motto, the public be
pleased and satisfied, is operating
some twenty years behind the spirit
of the times. There was a time about
that majiy years ago when the big
concern could sit back in dignity and
tell the public to go jump in the lake
if it di% not like what it was get-
ting, but that attitude has gone
out of style entirely. The biggest
concerns in the country have learned
that it pays to please the public, and
many of them maintain special des
partments to look after the pleasure
and complete satisfaction of the pub-
lic.
i Many nice things were said about
our town, and especially were they
all surprised at our hotel, and none
hesitated to say that it is as good as
the best in Texas.

The farmers of Anderson county next to Mexico and committing some
are organizing marketing associations
-^with a view of getting better prices
for their products, an« with a view
to improving conditions in the farm-
ing sections. Many of. the communi-
ties of the county are showing great
interest in this movement, and are
adopting practical plans for getting
their products on the market. It oc-
curs to the Herald that through
these organizations will he a good
way for the Business League and the
farming element to get together for
a bigger and broader county move-
ment. It would be entirely practical
it seems to us for each of the com-
munity organizations to name a dele-
gate whose duty it will he to attend
meetings of the Business League and
keep in touch with the work of this
Palestine organization and thus be
untoward act. If we do anything j
rash it will be several hundred miles •
this side of the border.

Line up with the Business League
for the new year’s work. Big things-
are waiting for the League, and many
can be accomplished through
organization that can not otherwise
be handled. The League is to be re-
organized next week and new direc-
tors and officers elected.

The Herald hopes the work of im-
proving the court house square will
be hurried along until the surround-
| ings are in harmony with the beauti-
ful court house. The streets around
the square should be graveled if they
can not be paved and the lawn should
be kept in first-class order. Natural-
ly the home people delight in show-
j ing the big court house to visitors,
but they can not hide the streets

Science scores again. According to
a brother newspaper man farmers
over in Henderson county are cutting; j
off the tails of their young porkers
because it has been scientifically .
demonstrated that it requires at
least a full bushel of corn to main-
tain a perfectly good curl in a pig’s
