ballot and costs of holding the two
primary elections were assessed at
a meeting of the Erath County
Democratic Executive Committee
Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock in
the district court room.
County Chairman C. O. McMil-
lan said that a committee was ap-
pointed to calculate the costs for
holding the two primary elections
and to recommend assessments.
This committee, Chairman Mc-
Millan informed, completed the
recommendations for assessments
at the meeting, during which names
were drawn for places on the bal
lot by the county committee as a
whole.

the committee against candidates

chairman: for sheriff, county clerk,
and tax assoesor-collector, $112.60
each; for district clerk, county at-
torney, county judge, county school
superintendent, ' $90 each; for
county treasurer, $08.50 each; for

essary to have more printed this
year than in the last election year
of 1936, he indicated, since there

1936. Including exemptions, 5,036
poll taxes were issued, as compar-
ed to 4,796 paid polls and exemp-
tions in 1986.

lUtnrns to Dallas
Mias Frances Evans returned last
Sunday to Dallas after a week’s
visit with her parents, Mr. and Mrs.
W. H. Evans, in the Smith Springs
community. Miss Evans, an em-
ployee of Sears-Rnebuek k Co. in
Dallas, had onderogne a tonsillec-
tomy and visited in her parents’
home while recuperating. She has
numerous friends in Stephenville
and Erath county.'
MORTH TEXAS ia all excited
about the building of a $63,-
000,000 dam across Red River
Denison, located near by the pro-
posed site, is said to be booming
as never before in anticipation of
the demands that will be made
during the five or ten years re-
quired to complete the project—
one that will employ thousands of
men. A dam across Red River at
Denison does not create much ex
citement down here in the Heart
of Texas—except for one thing—
arid that ONE thing is the proposi-
tion of taxation. Reports say that
Erath county will help pay the
bill, but just where the levy ori
ignated or how it will be collected
is something nobody seems to
know much about. Erath county
property owning tax payers might
have to pay a part of this cost but
they will certainly do so under
protest.--------
DESKINS f WELLS, energetic
publisher of the Wellington
Leader, was elected president of
the Texas Press Association last
week when the annual meeting
waa held in Port Arthur. When it
cornea to getting things done Deck
ia a wheel horse and we desire to
take this opportunity of extend-
ing him every good wish for sue
cess during the time that he will
serve. Wellington is located up on
the North Plains — a section of
Texas that year in and year out
produces big crops. One of these
days we are going out to visit
Deck, Sam Braswell at Clarendon,
Ed Carlock at Paducah, Ray Nich-
ols at Vernon and a lot of those
other hustling newspapermen in
that area. Another high light of
the press convention was the
award that went to Mrs. Win A.
Salter, of Kerrvflle. Her paper—
the Kerrville Mountain Sun—was
selected ae the best all-around
weekly newspaper In Texas. No
better choice could have been made
and we gladly extend coi
tions to Mrs. Salter. Incii
this is the second time Mrs. Salter
hafe won this award.
Day by day the traffic problem
becomes worse In Stephenville.
A local business maa offered a
suggestion the last week that
would help some. It was him
thought that store keepers and
professional men leave their cam
either at home or park them in
garages, especially on busy days.
Checking over a few we happen
to know .
our 0IW8P...
selves—we can think of about
ten empty parking spaces. Go-
ing down on the square there
would be many ether a pa cm if
local people carried out thin idea.

Large Sign Asked
For Double Curve
Tarleton Campus
C. O. McMillan, local attorney,
said Wednesday he had been en-
gaged to supervise plans for ob-
taining an illuminated sign on
Highway 10 at the double curve
at the west edge of BtephenviUe
for the purpose of reducing
number of accidents that occur at
tills site.
He made a request for a large
electric sign, four feet wide and
six feet long, to the State Depart-
ment of Public Safety. A reply
from the assistant director of pub-
lic safety with the department
stated that the matter had been
referred to the traffic engineer,
under whose jurisdiction such ac-
tion is taken, McMillan said.
“If this large illuminated sign
can be secured,” McMillan inform-
ed, “the cars entering Stephenville
from the west can see it a long
distance from the double curve,
giving them plenty of time to
slow down before reaching the cor-
ner. In my opinion this would re-
duce to a minimum the number
of wrecks occurring at this place.”
Of the 800 entries in Baxley
Studio’s sixth annual baby contest
this month, 118 of them were

uipment provided by the Radio

vided by the studio for most of the
