THINGS ARE LOOKING UP
From what we hear from different parts of the United
States, it is New York City that is deepest in the slough of
despond right now, while in almost every other section the
sunshine is beginning to shine through the clouds of business
depression.
It has been a tough year; there is no denying that. What
with the financial slump that began more than a year ago, and
this year’s widespread drought, ahd the tumble in the price
of wheat and cotton, and the shutting down of factories, we
haven’t been through such a “hard times” year since 1921. But
it has its compensations, by comparison with previous similar
situations. Commodity prices have not gone up but have come
down. Most of those thrown out of work had something ahead
to tide them over.
The main thing the matter with the country right now is
timidity. The head of a big bank said the other day: “Our bank
has more money in it right now than it ever had, but where is
it? It is mostly in time deposits, drawing interest, or in sav-
ings accounts. People are hoarding instead of spending. If
everybody would spend even ten percent of what they have
saved up, it would start the wheels of industry going again
speedily.” . ..... —. *
And we hear that the “Buy Now” movement, which started
a few weeks ago, has spread around the country and that people
everywhere are beginning to take the dimes out of the savings
bankB and the dollars out of the checking accounts and buy the
commodities which are -for sale everywhere at bargain prices.
This is going to be a “useful” Christmas, from all indica-
tions. People generally are planning to give as Christmas
gifts which are not merely ornamental or luxurious, but such
useful presents as new things for the home, fh&t is all to the
good, for it puts money circulating in channels»where it is most
needed. ,
Some Bmart fellow proposed a few weeks ago that every-
body ought to spend ten eents a day that he had not intended
to spend. That sounded foolish to s6me, but a lot of people
have taken it up, and the accumulation of dimes thus started
on their merry way is beginning to show its effect.
“Big money” is not timid. One large financial house an-
nounced the other day that it had clients ready to invest any-
thing from a million dollars upward. They.didn’t want to both-
er with' triflea worth less than a million, but they would buy in-
to anything profitable in million-dollar units. The ones who
are holding back are the ordinary folks like us. But if we be-
lieve in the future of the United States .we.can prove our faith
by beginning again to spend our money for necessities and a
little bit more, and when we are all doing that the “hard times”
will be oven
-00--—
WHAT’S WRONG WITH THE COUNTRY?
a
, One of the most amazing statements made at the White
House Conference on Child Health and Protection is that city
children, on the average, enjoy better health than country chil-
dren.
That is reversing the accepted idea of the benefits of rural
surroundings, outdoor life and fresh air. But the report is a
specific one, the result of an extensive survey of health condi-
tions among school children. . ________ ___.
“Rural school children have from one-half to 20 per cent
more physical defects than the city school children," says the
report. “The rural child gets a one-sided physic^ development.
He lacks the medical care and health service facilities that the
city child is offered.”
Not all city children are perfect physical specimens, how-
ever. More than 70 per cent of all children In the public schools
of city and country, are sufferers from physicial defects that
affect their mental as well as their physical developments, ac-
cording to the same report.
Standing alone, that sounds as if the rising generation was
up against a pretty tough struggle for existene. But com-
pared with only fifty years ago, when only one child out of
three born ever lived to school age, we are doing pretty well
by the.children. And when every community, city or rural pays
as much attention to public health as the big cities do now, the
v-ones who will benefit most will be the school children.
-oo--
FARM BOYS AND GIRLS
There is only one thing about the annual gathering of 4-H
Club boys and girls at the National Livestock Exposition that
ought to be different. That is the fact that all of the city folks
in the United States couldn’t go to Chicago recently, and see the
kind of young folks the farms of America are bringing up today.
If we had our way about running this 4-H club affair, we’d
arrange to pull off an exhibit of city youngsters At the same
time and place and invite all of the cocktailrdrinking city sqiart-
Alecs, cigarette-smoking “society” women and snooty “modern”
critics of everything that is sound and wholesome ifi -America to
come and compare the two groups.
We know which group would win. Our money would be
down on the 4-H boys and girls.
Seriously, we feel that there is nothing whatever to worry
about concerning the future of the United States, much less the
future of American rural life, so long as the farms of the nation
continue to produce young men and young women of the types
which make up the 4-H clubs. They call this annual show in
Chicago a Livestock Exposition. It is that, of course, but it seems
to us that by far the most important exhibit there is these
healthy, industrious, energetic, enthusiastic, wholesome young
people who are sent from every part of the country because they
have won outstanding success in farming and home-making.
The country districts of the United States can challenge the
cities to show their equal. We kno£ of no comparable move-
ment In the cities looking toward development of the qualities
of Hand, Heart, Head and Health which are the four “H’s” of the
4-H clubs. City youngsters may Average “smarter” in dreis
inner*, though we question the latter. But the important
of life are not thoae which appear on the surface. It ie
that counts, in the long run; and we know of no
character than the 4-H clubs.
W. A. Hancock Moves
Here From Hico and
Opens Up New Cafe
W. A. Hancock, who has been one
of the leading citizens of Hico for
the past forty years, tk now num-
bered among the latest additions
to the citizenship of Stephenville.
having recently moved here to take
charge of hia cafe business which
is to be operated in this city under
the name of the Hancock Cafe.
Mr. Hancock has had consider-
able experience in the cafe busi-
ness, having been in that line of
work for nine years In Hico.
The new Hancock Cafe, which is
located in the building recently oc-
cupied by the old Mecca Cafe, was
opened for business Monday morn-
ing with the proprietor and his son,
Herman Hancock, who will be as-
sociated with him, in fuU charge
of the business.
They have been very fortunate in
securing the. services of Curtis Rob-
erts, well known chef of Stephen-
ville, who will have charge of the
kitchen.
The proprietor and his son are
anxious to meet the people of this
section and ask that they call at
the cafe at any time where they
will receive av cordial welcome,
courteous treatment and prompt
and efficient service.
Mr. Hancock will move his fam-
ily to this city within the next few
weeks, having delayed coming earl-
ier on account of bis little daugh-
ter, Frances, who is attending
school in Hico and who did not
want to enter school here until af-
ter the Christmas holidays.
Stephenville people will extend
the glad hand of welcome to these
splendid citizens who have come to
make their future home here and
are hoping they may be happy and
contented in tneir new surround-
ings and that they may also find
success awaiting them in their lat>
est business undertaking in this
city.

Tarleton Students
Are a Healthy Lot
Along with other distinctions
which they may have, the stu-
dents of John Tarleton College
have the distinction of being an
unusually healthy lot.
There have been practically no
epidemics in the college since it
was taken over by the State, and
it has been years since one of the
students has died during the school
year.
The credit for healthy, students
op
vis. Prevention rather than cure
is the policy of the school nurses,
Miss Lucy Hennigan and ' Miss
Adel Clem. Every day the nurses
are in consultation for the great-
er part of 'the time, taking care
of the minor ailments of the stu-
dents before they develop into se-
rious proportions.
The college has one hospital
building in two sections, one fot
the men and one for the women
students. There are 12 rooms
with two or three beds in each
room. When students are sent tp
the hospital they are served a
diet prescribed by the nurse and
sent directly from the dining hall.
The cost of this service for stu-
dents living off the campus is de-
frayed by the students’ boarding
houses.
Enrollment Keeping
Up Well at J. T. A. C.
In spite of all talk about hard
times, the enrollment at John Tar-
leton college has been higher for
the first semester this year than
for any previous year except 1929-
80, and lacks only a few of at-
taining the number enrolled then,
according to figures obtained from
Dean J. Thomas Davis this week.
The total enrollment thus far
has been 891, as compared with
916 before Christmas last year
and 927 for the entire first semes-
ter last year. Of the number
enrolled, only 20 have withdrawn,
14 men and six girls. There have
been 499 men enrolled and 392
girls.

MEXT week we
* ’ extra columns added
newspaper—we hope.
usual Christmaa eaitii_____
plana now are to put it in the
mails next Thursday afternoon
about twenty-four pages of home
news and Yuletiae advertising.
The letters to Santa Claus will all
be printed, along with countless
other news features that readers
like to see in their home newspa-
per. On top of all this we are
going to name several ideas that
are now being formulated that not
many folks know anything about.
Many of these topics have refer-
ence to business projects that
should be to the distinct advant-
age of Stephenville and the sur-
roundings territory. A11 will be
brought out in this column and
we trust that all subscribers will
read every word we have to say,
not for the good that will come
from reading but from the news
value of what’s in the air for
1931. In this connection we are
going to urge all rural correspon-
dents to list any programs of im-
provements they can learn of in
their respective communities, as
well as human interest stories
about the successes that have been
made by citizens in their neigh-
borhoods. In every section 6 f
Erath county* there have been a
few who have made a good record
this year despite the low stand-
ard of production and relatively
low prices for farm products. Cor-
respondents can greatly add to
the news value of the Empire-
Tribune next week if they will
take just a little time and hunt
up these items that are to be had
if properly sought after. So Mr.
and Mrs. Reader we are going to
close right now by again urging
you to watch your next week’s
home paper, for we know you are
going to enjoy it. A large num-
ber of Stephenville merchants are
going to spend good money to re-
serve advertising space to tell you
a Christmas message, while others
are going toi put over big sales
talks. In the face of a visit from
her sweetheart the society editor
has agreed to speed up the local
news columns with a lot of spicy
sentences; the other young lady
fairly beams oxer the prospects
of getting 8om^Tpoice feature sto-
ries, and the old man himself—the
high rod—here and now pledges
to let the cat out of the bag on
several inside secrets about
WHAT’S GOING TO HAPPEN
IN 1931. Boy, the above is js lay-
out that ought to Jook good to ev-
erybody, and- all we ask you to do
is to read, brother, read. S’night.
Erath County. Loses
One of Most Highly
Respected Pioneers
In Alex B. Roberts
The death of Alex B. Roberts,
aged 69, which occurred at his home
in Dallas Sunday morning, Decem-
ber 7, at IKK) o’clock, marked the
passing of one of Erath couhty’s
most highly esteemed and life-
long citizens.
Except for a short time spent
in Oklahoma and the last few
years in Dallas, the deceased had
made his home almost continu-
ously in the vicinity of Stephen-
ville. L
He was born June 9, 1861, in
the Valley Grove community two
iqiles southeast of this city, and
was reared to young manhood
there. He was married at the age
of 19 to Miss Sallie Hunt of the
Alarm Creek community and to
this union were born nine chil-
dren, all of whom are living.
He was converted at the age of
twenty'and united with the Val-
ley Grove Baptist church where
his membership remained for
years. He later united with the
First Baptist church of this city
and was one of the most loyal
members at the time of his death,
never having removed his mem-
bership elsewhere.
; The body of the deceased was
brought back to Stephenville in
a Hardin Undertaking ambulance,
B. I. Trewitt, undertaker for the
firm, having charge of all funeral
arrangements. -
Last rites for the deceased were
held at the First Baptist church
Tuesday afternoon at 3:30 o’clock,
the pastor, Rev. W. H. Andrew,
conducting the services.
Following services at the church
the cortege wended its way to (he
new Valley Grove cemetery three
miles south of this city, where
the body was laid to rest with
those of his family who have gone
on before.
Surviving him are his wife, and
the following children: Ira Roberts
of this city; Boliver Roberts of
San Saba; Mrs. Hugh Wright of
Chickasha, Oklahoma; Mrs. Ross
Wright, Big Spring; Mrs. Lucy
King, Fort Worth; Mrs. Jack Ward
of Oklahoma City; John Roberts,
Vaughn Roberts and Virgil Rob-
erta, all of Dallas. He is also
survived by twenty grandchildren,
two brothers, I. N. Robert* and
Leonard Roberts of this city, three
sisters, Mrs. Mary Dupuy of Cor-
pus Christi; Mrs. Maggie Winn
of Dallas, Mrs. Sarah Biggs of
Stephenville, and a large number
of nieces and nephews and other
relatives in this section and other
parts of the state. -

LETS ALL DO OUR PART TO
RELIEVE UNEMPLOYMENT
The Tarleton Avenue Christian
Church had a forty per cent in-
crease in its Sunday School at-
tendance December 7. This in-
crease resulted principally from
the citywide Sunday School cam-
paign. The young people’s class
rendered several sacrea numbers
after the class period. Mr. Mount
Taylor made a thoughtful talk on
“Why We Should Attend Sunday
School.”
Sunday, December 14, has been
designated as “Guest Day” at this
church. All members of the church
and Sunday school will have some
of their friends visit them at the
eleven o’clock service. The mem-
ber' bringing the largest number
of guests will be rewarded with
the gift of a handsome Bible.
Pastor Richardson will preach at
the eleven o’clock hour on “Hos-
pitality”
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Telephone accounts are due. on
the first day of the month. In order
to prevent interruption of service
they must be paid not ilater than 6
p. m. the 16th day of the month.—

Miss Irene Page, 17, of Ches-
terfield, England, now is the ba-
con boning and roling champion
having beaten all comers, mostly
men, at the competition.
Unemployment is one of the
problems now facing not only the
people of Stephenville but the peo-
ple of Dallas, Houston, New York
and Chicago. It is a general con-
dition over the country and over
the world. And each city is having
to face its. own problem and work
out its own salvation. We cannot
hope to look for government relief
for something so widespread as our
present condition.
So I would like to say to the
citizens of Stephenville that it is
our place to pitch in and do our
best to help each other get over the
next few months without letting
anybody go hungry or cold thru
these winter days.
If your roof is leaking, why not
roof yonr house just now and give
employment to a carpenter or two?
If you have no sidewalks, or if
your walks are in need of repair,
why couldn’t you have a new walk
laid? Perhaps your house is need-
ing painting. You could do a real
service to your city by having it
painted now. Do you need new
chicken coops, a new dog house, a
new garage? If so, why not give
out your work when it is needed
as badly as it could be, and worse
than it is likely to be needed for
some time to come? Why not build
what you need now?
Lately Houston has ptub 1000
men to work on the streets, the
Southern Pacific has put 260 men
on its payroll, and various individu-
als have put 100 men to work. And
the breadlines over the city are
gradually dwindling.
We need people here in Stephen-
vills to do for this city what the
people of Houston are doing there.
We probably have ,100 men in this
city in need of work. They are not
in need of money to ba doled out
to them. But if they are not given
employment within a few weeks,
they will be in deed of soup and
beans, of shoes and coats and un-
derwear.
Probably there is not a man of
us who doesn’t say to himself, “We
won’t let anybody in Stephenville
go hungry.” But we can do a man
a lot more good by furnishing him
a few days’ work, so that he can
buv the beans and potatoes him-
self, than by sending around a
Christmas box that contains enough
food for a day or two.
This is our problem. Let’s all do
our part to help each other through
these times of stress and strain.—

Funeral Services
Held for O. Davis at
Huckabay Church
Funeral rites for Oscar Davis,
aged 62, prominent citizen of the
Huckabay community whose death
occurred at Harris sanitarium in
Fort Worth Thursday, December
14, were held at the Baptist
church in Huckabay Sunday after-
noon at 3:30 o’clock, Rev. W. «.
Andrew, paator of the First Bap-
tist church of this city, officiat-
ing. Dr. Andrew was assisted in
the services by Rev. Dr. M. E.
Davis, brother of the deceased,
who holds a Bible Chair in Howard
Payne College, Brownwood, and is
also pastor of one of the local
Baptist churches there.
The deceased had beeif~~in de-
clining health for the past five
yean, his condition having grown
so much worse during the last six
weeks that his family decided to
take him to the Fort Worth hos-
pital in the hopes that something
could be done to relieve his suf-
fering, but to no avail.
Mr. Davis was born October 8,
1868, in Gilmer county Georgia,
and was reared to young manhood
there. He later came to Texas,
stopping at Bluff Dale, where in
1894 he was married to Miss
Leona Thompson. After his mar-
riage to Miss Thompson they con-
tinued to make their home at
Bluff Dale, moving two years
later to the farm he had purchas-
ed near Huckabay where he was
still making his home at the time
of his death.
To this union were born nine
children, all of whom are living
and were present at the funeral
held for their father. His ypfe
preceded him in death eight years
ago and it was by the side of her
grave in the Huckabay cemetery
that the body of the deceased was
laid to rest Sunday afternoon.
Mr. Davis waa married again
in 1925 to Miss Nora Lovell of
Georgia, who survives him.
He waa converted in Georgia at
