Mrs. Elsie Hewitt accom-

Falls to Stephenville last Satur-
day to attend the 2-day Elston
Reunion which was attended by
more than 100.
M. A. Elston was the oldest
one present, being 82 years old
and the youngest was the 10-
month old daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Roger Elston of Stephen-
ville. Those travelling the long-
est distance were the Rudolph
Elston family of Lawton, Okla-
homa, Mr. and Mrs. L- B. Cor-
bell and Hazel Haynes of Sny-
der and Mr. and Mrs. Gene Els-
ton of Sweetwater. Mrs. Cor-
bell and Mrs. Haynes are sis-
ters of Mrs. Hewitt and Mr.
Gene Elston is her brother.
From Hospitals
J. C. Pigg, Who has been
confined for some time in a

ing.
Mrs. Pigg returned home July

hospitalized and underwent sur-
gery.
criminals, and society would
be relieved of the threat to Its
safety. Lawyers would be re-
lieved of the responsibility of
finding the right loopholes in
the law or constitution to free
the guilty—for, under the new
system, if guilt were deter-
mined, the criminal would be
given his freedom in the reser-
vation established just for his
kind.
As for the hippies, on their
reservation who would care
whether they ever bathed or
cut their hair? Who would ever
care how many LSD, STP or
other alphabetical “trips” they
take?
It is a pretty safe bet that
little time would pass till most
of the residents of the reserv-
ation would be pleading to be
allowed back In society. Why?
Well, they would never con-
cede the right of their kind
to rob and pillage against them
nor would they have an easy
time accomplishing their dark
deeds, for the competition would
be tough, so tough that the
small-time hood would survive
hardly long enough to realize the
situation he has helped to cre-
ate.
Again, as for the hippies
and their ilk, what fun is it
to rebel against custom when
nobody cares nor even sees?
They would be in the same
situation as a child in a tan-
trum who is removed from the
well - behaved — the tantrum
ends, because what good is a
tantrum without an audience?
This recommendation I will
cheerfully give to the power s-
that-be to solve the problems
facing society here at home. The
Vietnam war they will have to
solve themselves.

It is going to be a great
relief to the government of the
United States to learn that I
have a solution to the problem
of what to do about the crime
wave, the riots and the far-
out generation which rebels
against everything the previous
generations have thought good
and worthwhile.
Rulings by the Supreme Court
have crippled the enforcement
of existing laws, even to the
point of seeming to favor the
criminal and the rioter over
the law - abiding citizen; and
privilege of individual freedom
has been misused by many per-
sons or groups to further their
schemes, to “justify” their
lawlessness In rioting or looting
or in simple disobedience to
established customs.
Now, if it is legal (and it
seems to be so), to have reser-
vations to hold our American
Indian population, why not put
all such trouble-makers upon
special reservations where they
can connive with each other,
where they can rob, plunder and
steal from each other, where
they can raid, rape and kill
each other, and where they can
riot to their own satisfaction
without endangering the lives of
lawful citizens. Only one rule
would govern—they would be
required to remain on the
reservation.
The sob sisters (and bro-
thers) who are so concerned
with the “rights” of the
accused, regardlessofhisguilt,
could join him on the reserva-
tions to enjoy the fruits of their
“freedom” to do all the lawless
deeds denied by law. The courts
would be relieved of the respon-
sibility of imprisoning the poor
