DO YOUR PART
Beginning with the lb-12 I-ire
Prevention Meek, b t us deter-
mine to cut Ihe American fire
waste, which runs about tfs-^OO.-
OnO.fHM! a year, in half.
That is the suggestion in alt
art He in Safeguarding Ameri-
ca Against Eire. Tim American
people could take upon them-
selves it" finer pvoject. In these
days of distress, a half billiott-
dollar waste is unthinkable.and
even that seems a small matter
in the light of the fact that
fire destroys 10,000 lives annu-
ally.
This year Eire Prevention
Week will be observed from
October 9 to 15. It will open
with proclamations from the
Preaident of the Ended States
and from governors of states,
mayors of cities and other of-
ficials. Chambers of Commerce.
fire departments, trade'asso-
ciations and state fire preven-
tion groups will give every ef-
fort to instrr-ting the public
in fire hazards and th iv elimi-
nation. Each of us will have the
chance to learn, pleasantly and

A carload of flour lias been
received at Goldthwaite from
H-ti < iuilknrjt ies, to be dis-
tiibuted to the poor Tn Mills '
county. A committee composed
of Judge Roy Sim|>son. Coun-
ty Agent W. P. Weaver and
W M J< hnston, secretary of
the Retail Merchants associa-
tion of Goldthwaite, has been
appointed to sec to the proper
distribution of this flour. Ap-
plications for it should be made
to these gentlemen. The rules
for the distribution of the flour
are very simple and those who
need it can apply for it and ae-
e pt it without embarrassment.
LITTLE NAN SMITH
IS CALLED HOME
There was gloom in the town
Monday that corresponded to
the heavy rain clouds that hung .
overhead, for Baity Van Smith
had been rushed to a hospital
in Brownwood at midnight,
very ill. Monday night at mid-
night the angels came and she
crossed the borderland over to
the golden shore.
Van was at Sunday school
Sunday morning as gay and
happy as could lie and admir-
ing friends spoke of her baby
smile and winsome ways. A
rosebud was needed in the flow-
er garden of the Ml Wise Fath-
er. w ho in all love and tender-
ness plucked little Van before
she had known sorrow or trial
here on earth.
I ’or two short years she »has
brought sunshine into the hap-
py home of her parents, Mr.and
Mrs. L. J Smith, and brother,
Jimmie. All adored the baby
sist.-r, but by and by the mist
will clear and we know he is
the loving Father who doeth all
things well, and say “Thv will
not mine be done.’
The* funeral services were
iold at the Mullin Baptist
church Tuesday afternoon at
four o’clock, with Rev. Allison
and Rev. Kamaev officiating.
Mrs. W. S. Kemp at the piano,
Miss Ruth Vaughan sang “My
Father Knows.” Pallbearers
were Wilbur Henry, Francis
Leinneweber, Glen and Ben Kit-
tle, Wilba Kemp and Alva Mas-
ters.
Interment was at Rio Vista
Wednesday.

joy the hospitality of the Flet

by all, when the jolly grouf>
participated in various interest-
ing games.
The hostess passed nut slipN
of paper with cartoons from
the comic pHgi- drawn on them
and instructed the group to imi-
tate some 'characteristic point
of the comedian whose picture
was on the paper and had the
others guess who was being im-
itated. Popcye, Little Orphan
Annie, Andy Gump, Cicero and
other comedian# were imitated
bv the group of “good ac-
tresses’’.
The light was turned off and
in the darkness the hostess ask-
ed the guests to draw a picture
of h horse, dog and a rnhhit.
Then the light was turned on
and each girl saw what a good
“artist in the dark” she and
her friends were.
After a few minutes of very
interesting games and piano
music. The hostess served the
happy girls delicious refresh-
mejit plates-consisting of punch,
sandwiches, pear salad, sweet
pickles and chocolate cake.
The girls had resolved to stay
up all night, but about J JO
o’clock everyone was sleeping
so soundly that even a frog
that stole into the room could
not wake them.
The breakfast hour was in-
deed a very interesting one and
a few minutes afterwards the
geests departed and wished for
another delightful “Owl Par-
ty” at an early date.

LOW-COST ROADS
That the highway dollar is be-
ing called upon to show far
greater returns than ever be-
fore is definitely sh »wn by a sur-
vey of street and highway pav-
ing and surfacing done during
1931 Analysis of reports com-
pleted by the Asphalt Institute,
from 48 state highway depart-
ments, 410 leading counties, 167
of the principal cities and 47
larger New England towns,
shows that during 1931 an ag-
gregate of 463,736,045 square
yards of street and highway
were Improved beyond the stage
of plain waterbound macadam
and gravel roads, or the equlval-
en of 42,000 miles of 18 foot
width surfacing.
Of this large total, more than
20,000 miles, or about 4* per cent
were of the low-cost surface-
treated ' types and nearly 7,000
miles, or about 16 per cent, of
the comparatively low-co*t road
mix types. Thus the low-cost
type* made up more than 64 per
cent of the total Improved. Labor
receives a larger share of the
dollar spent for this type of con-
struction than from any other.
