Remember the
time when it took
everything you
earned and proba-
bly a bit more to
be dressed as you
should be?
That M it required
quite a cash outlay
each season to
"keep in step."
No longer it is nec-
rssary to go to
such ' extremes.
The plan is simple:
establish y o q .r
credit with us,
make purchases and ar-
range to pay for them at
your convenience.
And often times a charge
account is a real conveni-
ence for thbse who have
plenty, wlven you phone
•for an article or even
though you shop in per-
son , many people dislike
to give out io many small
checks when a check on
of before the tenth of the
month wilFcoverkail and
also furnish a's^ceipt.
Your credit is yOur. best
asset, use it to Rodd ad-
vantage. BUT KEEPsJT

sity of Texas between eight and ten
millioa dollars in royalty mqpey."
Mr. Stark «aid. In discussing tho
University's oil lands. He is a lead-
er among the regents of the Uni-
versity, having served as chairman
of the board for some time. "The
field Is one of the best in,the conn-
try. and is being developed by two
companies which have the beat of
equipment. There are only /three
wooden derricks tn the entire field
and the drilling is being! done in
such fashion as to prolong, the life
of the production.” -/ ,
Sptaking. of the University af-
fairs Mr. Stark wild the prospect is
very bright. Dr. Splawn. the presi-

Jaa. C White discussed briefly
the benefits of membership in and
attendance upon trade association*
Tfcq major benefit, he said, was to
the individual business man. who i*
enabled to increase his profits by
i of the suggestions that
come to him by association with
others engaged in the same trade
or profession. A secondary tieneilt.
hut one of equal Importance, be
said, is to the trsde or profession
as a whole, whose ideals at* rais-

through the associations and their
organised activity. /
Chester Harrison dmeussed the
matter of ethics in ^tskiess. He
said the Rotary Clnb was th** first

DUBLIN. Oct. 10.—idP> — The
liquor commission appolnted'bytae
Free State ccrrernment has <U*ctdeO
against imitating the example of
Northern Ireland which has who!-*
lv abolished the sale of drink cn
Sundays. In the Free State drink
must be sold on Sundays to hona
fide travelers, which means to any
body who travels three miles. Tbtw
limit was fixed before the
•tectr 3. cars and motors,
suit has been the growth of an ex-
tensive traffic tn drink on Sunday*
in the suburban districts of Irish
cities. ___
The I hi nor etmmlssion recom-
mends the continuance of the bona
fide traveller privilege, hut pro-
pose* to make him travel farther
If their recommendation Is adopt-
ed the extent of his journey from
Dublin must be ten mile* and from
country towns eix mile*- j Thts
would merely »hift the traffic a Ht-
tle further out It woohl abolish
Sunday drinking for example in
Dun l/oaghalre and transfer H to
to Bray. •' #
Another proposal to abolish G.tKi"
of the 13.000 drink ahopa In the
Free mate is generally approved,
but the licensed trade is strenu-
ously resisting the recommenda-
tion that the compensation to be
paid for the extinguished licenses
shall be provided by • levy on the
surviving drink shops.

In awarding contrncta. for surfac-

entered into any ag'rctnenl with the
American Road Company to re-
frain from prnhocutinn. Ilia state-
nfvnt came over long distance from
Dallas to Ernest May. assistant at-
torney general.
Moody's statement as given to
the Associated Press reads: •
“This letter was written by
James E. Ferguson for the ‘politi-
cal reasons' he has occaaAonaUy at-
tributed lo me. and is a belated ef-
fort to save hi* administration frbni
the condemnation that may result
when tho p*-ople of Texas know

"It Is not true that I have
any .agreement with any conti
tors or any other persons that I
should refrain tr«-m enjoining the
prosccutiou of any surfacing con-
tract, nor have I made any other
agreement like' that suggested in
Ferguson's letter. This could have
been learned by telephoning tho
attorney general's office.
"On Thursday prior to Mr. Fer-
RUs«‘u'a,'instriictions.' the Highway
Commission refused to make fur-
ther payments to. the American
Road Company, the largest surfac-
ing contracting company, assign-
ing as lis reason that I had dir<-«
ed no further payment be made. If
suits are brought to cancel this
contract or any others, such action
will be In accordance with
judgment a* to the best measurer
