FORMER SENATOR Unfortunate Accident Closes1
D A. PAULUS Palace Theatre For
DEAD
(New Era-Heiald)
Texas lost a patriot Satur-
day night in the death of Hon.
David A. Paulus at Halletts-
ville. Since 1890 he had filled
a sphere of service to the peo-
ple of Texas as a teacher, law-
yer and in public office. His
father, Dr. Augustus David
Paulus, born in Kiel, Germany,
in 1817, received his liberal
education in the schools of
. Germany and his medical
training at the Universities of
Kiel an,d Heidelberg, came to
the U. S. A. in 1839 as assist-
ant surgeon in the U. S. Army.
During the Civil War he was
surgeon in Major Erath’s Com-
pany of rangers and at the
close of the, war he moved to
Fayette County where he died
- in 1895. David A. Paulus, des-
cendant of this pioneer Texas
physician, was born Dec. 6,
1862, as one of the first white
children born in Coryell Coun-
ty. He received his early
schooling in the private school
of Henry Heyer at High Hill
in Fayette County and in 1881
graduated from the Sam Hous-
ton Normal. He taught in pub-
lic schools at Bellville, Terrell,
Cleburne and summer normals
at Flatonia and Commanche.
These schools advanced under
his able and constructive est-
ablishment; but he abandoned
teaching to be admitted to the
ii* bar. He served as county at-
torney in Lavaca County, later
became senior member of Pau-
lus & Ragsdale law firm,
which he enjoyed about 20
... .tii, .■ years. In 1896 he became
county judge and only retired
from the office upon entering
the Senate in 1900. He re-
signed from the Senate in
1913, as he had suffered the
loss of hearing to such an ex-
tent that he was unable to
take active part in all pro-
ceedings. His distinguished
and immeasurable value as a
working member of the Sen-
ate was recognized by his con-
stituency in the 18th District
and they continued to elect
him until his consecutive term
of service exceeded that of
any other member of the Sen-
ate. He was the author of
many constructive measures,
outstanding member of im-
portant committees, and at
^ all times the advocator of adv-
ance needs of Education, Ele-
emosynary Institutions, Peni-
tentiaries and especially Judi-
ciary affairs. He served as a

Business Interests Shift
Locations
Business interests across the
railroad on Ave E and 6th Street
shifted locations the past week.
The Roth Produce business
moved into the building formerly
occupied by the Louis Wagener
planning mill and C. F. Miculka
moved his garage from 5th
Street to his old location vacated
by Mr. Roth, in the former High-
way Filling Station corner. The
moving of Michna’s pressing
shop to San Antonio leaves a
very desirable business house va-
cant between Star Grocery and
Balusek Garage.

At a previous meeting a reso-
lution was made and adopted
that the Board of Trustees em-
ploy no teacher nor consider any
applicants for vacancies who has
no degree. Effective April 1,
1935.
Teachers elected at this meet-
ing, Miss Anita Richter of Moul-
ton, to fiill the vacancy of the
6th grade, caused by the resig-
nation of Miss Gladys Tomlinson.
Miss Selma Rogge was selected
for the 5th grade. This will add
two degree teachers to the fac-
ulty.
The Board of Trustees was
presented with a petition by the
citizens of Shiner not to install
Home Economies, giving good
reasons. No action was taken
on same nor was it accepted as
the Board had already instructed
their secretary to notify the Su-
pervisor of Home Economics in
ample time to withdraw our re-
quisition for National aid before
it would be presented to the
State Board of Education for ap-
proval, which meets on the 15th
of this month. We wish to as
sure the good citizens that signed
this petition, the board has been
handling this problem very care-
fully and will continue to do so.
We are taking every precaution
and weighing with great care
everything pertaining to this
new project as the children of
Shiner are entitled to a careful
consideration of this matter and
not take for granted but act on
facts. (Safety First.) Hence
Home Economics will be install-
ed whenever financial conditions
are more favorable.
