several members of the local Am-
mon G. Tumbow post. One hundred

Howard Flemings
Home Is Damaged
By Blaze Sunday
Starting from a blaze in the
clothes closet, the home of Howard
Flemings on North Graham street
was damaged by fire Sunday morn-
ing about 10:46 o’clock. The fire
department prevented a complete
Insurance of $400 was carried on
the house and $200 on the con-
tents. About $90 damage was done
to the building, Rich Fagan, fire
marshal, said Thursday, and about
$120 loss was sustained on the
contents. Practically all of the

Board Equalization
Of Erath County
Meets June 28-30
Notices were sent out Wednesday
to the effect that the Commission-
ers Court, acting as a board of
equalization, would met Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday, June 28,
29 and 30, for the purpose of hear-
ing complaints of taxpayers not
satisfied with the amount of their
taxes. The board will be in session
all day on each of the days speci-
fied.
At the regular meeting of the
Commissioners’ Court Monday, a
contract was let to George Cole-
man, Stephenville, to construct a
two-room frame building for the
county farm at a cost of $250. The
structure will be used to house the
aged ill who have tuberculosis,
small pox or any other communi-
cable disease which makes it im-
practicable to put them in the re-
gular building used on the county
farm for paupers. Coleman be-
gan work on the dwelling Wednes-
day.
County Judge Wallace Scott said
Thursday that heretofore it had
been the custom to have them
placed in a hospital and that the
cost was greater than the amount
involved in building a new struc-
ture specifically for the purpose.
There now are five inmates of the
county farm.
Members of the Court spent
Tuesday in Patilo and Clairette
communities for the purpose of sec-
uring rights of way to lateral
roads planned in those vicinities.
Other business disposed of by
the Commissioners’ Court at its
June meeting included payment of
the regular bills and accounts.
TLL TELL THE
WORLD
JJURING these days of strife and
discord so much in evidence in
the industrial centers, newspapers
are often placed in positions that
are wholly uncompromising. This
applies particularly to the papers
serving these districts. Working
people, who for one reason or ano-
ther find themselves in disagree-
ment with employers, are not in the
attitude to be criticized. And in
the face of the fact that leaders
can arouse the emotions of their
followers to almost untold limits,
bringing conditions that are ir-
regular from every standpoint, the
net results usually can be sized
up as disastrous. That will apply
to both sides. Where such condit-
ions prevail the newspapers are
hard put to keep their skirts clear
of the argument and many times
biased readers jump at conclusions
that are ill founded. Only last
week the Fort Worth Star Tele-
gram editorially commented on the
seriousness of a strike in that city
whereby consumers of natural gas
were endangered from service lines
that were going unattended all be-
cause workmen could not become
reconciled to alledged contract
breaches with the Lone Star Gas
Company. Collective bargaining is
always in order and few people
are going to openly deny the work-
ing man the right and privilege of
seeking that which he is entitled to.
On the other hand, there are not
many who will agree that labor
leaders are right in urging, and
in many instances demanding, that
property be seised and occupied
without regard for the safety and
convenience of the public. The Star
Telegram took a courageous stand
in asking that the gas mains be
properly serviced, meanwhile sug-
gesting that workmen and gas com-

Cleaner Milk And
Cream Gatherings
Draw Big Crowds
Meetings over Erath county and
in nearby communities still are
being conducted by Otis Lamer,
field man for the Fort Worth Poul-
try & Egg Co. under the sponsor-
ship of the Triangle Cheese & Pro-
duce Co., Stephenville.
Next Mondgy night one is sched-
uled at Lipan at 8:30 o’clock and
another will be held next Thurs-
day night at JohnsviHe at the
same hour. Everyone is cordially
invited. Refreshments of cheese,
crackers and lemonade will be serv-
ed and the program includes a free
motion picture show.
At each one of this series of edu-
cational meetings County Agent
G. D. Everett speaks on the value
of a trench silo on every farm and
Lamer talks on cleaner milk and
cleaner cream.
Lamer said that about COO peo-
ple attended the gathering at Lin-
gleville Tuesday night and that
about 400 were at Hannibal Mon-
day night. A good attendance also
was at Rocky Point Wednesday
night.
After the meeting Tuesday night
at Lingleville, an Irish potato dis-
cussion was held at the previous re-
quest of County Agent Everett and
those interested in the Irish potato
industry.
IRISH POTATO
CROP BEGINS
TO MOVE OUT
A few truck loads of Irish pota-
toes are moving out of the Lingle-
ville school communities this week
at a reported price of from $1 to
$1.25 per hundred pounds. Local
markets during the middle of the
week ranged from 70c to 80c, ac-
cording to a report made Thursday
morning. Only a few of the pota-
toes were being moved out at the
higher price, however, and these
were being paid by truckers.
There will be more potatoes
harvested in Erath county this year
than in 1936, it is believed, due
to the fact that more acres were
planted. An especially large crop
is being made throughout the Na-
tion, with a reported increase of 65
percent Over the total production
last year. The larger crop is having
a dertimental effect on the market,
which is considerably under that
of the past year or so.
Present prospects indicate that
from 75 to 100 carloads of potatoes
will be marketed in this section
this year fro mapproximately 800
acres of land. Wet weather has
caused some to rot, especially in
the low ground areas. There has
been enough dug so far to indicate
accurately the approximate yield,
but the larger acreage is certain, it
is reported, to bring about a great-
er volume this year than in 1936.
Growers now are seeking to find
a better market for their potatoes
before releasing them. A meeting
was held Saturday afternoon at
the court house for the purpose of
organizing in the effort to build a
large enough volume of potatoes
from this section to interest buy-
ers who will pay more for the
product. Another meeting was held
at Lingleville Monday night and
still another Tuesday night. Wires
and telephone calls have been made
by interested parties in Stephen-
ville, Dublin, Lingleville and School
Hill in the attempt to locate pro-
duce men and brokers who will
pay a higher market for this year’s
crop in this area. The School Hill
Irish Potato Growers’ Association,
through its officers, are taking a
leading part in the movement, back-
ed by the county agent’s office and
all who are interested in the pota-
to industry in this Section.

Grey Downs—Texas Sweetheart No. 1
■ ?
Says Relatives of
Wally At One Time
Lived In Thurbe
rl
W. K. Gordon, Fort Worth, about
whom a feature article recently
printed in the Empire-Tribune con-
cerning his discovery of oil at Ran-
ger, sheds some light on the ru-
mor that the former Wallis War-
field, now the Duchess of Windsor,
once lived at Thurber.
Gordon says he is certain that
"Wally” had neither resided nor
lived at Thurber, but he recalls that
a Mrs. Warfield, an elderly woman
whom he thought might be Wallis’
aunt, Miss Ella Warfield, a spins-
ter, and Mr. and Mrs. Robert H.
Ward once were residents of Thur-
ber. According to Gordon, Ward
was attorney for the Texas Paci-
fic Coal and Oil Company and mar-
ried the daughter of Mrs. Warfield,
whose naane he recalls as Mary.
‘‘They came from Baltimore,”
Gordon said, ‘‘and lived at Thurber
for about six years between 1890
and 1900. I believe they were rela-
tives of the famous Wally."
Gordon is chairman of the board
of the TP Coal and Oil Company.
He formerly was manager of the
Texas Pacific Coal Company at
Thurber, and will be honor guest
at the Thurber Reunion Jubilee
July 4.
