High Gas Bills
Users of gas in many towns
and cities of this section of the
Panhandle are complaining about;
frig gas bills in January, one
of the warmest winter months!
on record. An explanation for
the big bills is being asked from j
the Public Service Corporation:
of Texas by the Canadian Cham-
ber of Commerce. Some consum-
ers of natural gas in Canadian
report January bills are approx-
imately from 20 to 25 per cent
higher than for the previous
month. It is right that the gas
company should give some ex-
planation.

Beverly Hills—Well all I know
is just what I read in the papers,
.ind what 1 happen to see prowl-
ing hither and thither. I was
in New York re-
cently and I de-
cided that be-
fore 1 left there
I would like to
See Al Smith. I
hadent seen him
in a long time
and had always
been an admirer
of him. I just
wanted to see
him and see how
he was, and how he was feeling.
So I phoned him, and he said,
"Come right on down." He is
right across the street from that
wonderful Empire Building, in
•i corner suit overlooking it.
This building belongs to Jesse
Jones a mighty well known Dem-
ocrat, he is the fellow that bought
I he Democratic Convention for
Houston, Tex. He owns these
buildings all over the Country
and rents em mostly to Repub-
licans.
Well Al never looked better in
his life, and I have known and
been seeing him around New
York for many years. He started
in of course by showing me the
90 story building, out of the
window that gave us the best
view of it. It did look wonder-
ful. Its got some sort of outside
structural steel work that looks
like Illinum, and in the sun it
just glistens. Hhen he started
in showing me old pictures on
the wall of his office that showed
early scenes in New York. He
showed some of the old houses
on the lower east side where he
lived, one under the very shade
of Brooklyn Bridge. Then the
old home in Oliver Street. He is
without a doubt the most senti-
mental prominent man I ever met.
He glories in the past. He had
one picture that showed the old
Theatrical team of Harrigan and
Hart, who made their great fame
in the "Mulligan Guards." It
was in a large frame with dozens
of the old time favorites, includ-
ing the old Theatres htat they
played in. He would hum to you
the tunes of those old favorites.
He sure beams personality. He
is human if there ever was one.
I dont care whether you agree
with him politically or not, the
person dont live that could meet
him and be with him awhile
that wouldent go away not liking
him. He does a hundred little
things and mannerisms that make
you feel that he is one of you.
There is no put on or front with
Al, he is just Al, unlike anybody-
else in the world.
I had just come from the White
House a day or so before and
was telling him about how Mr.
Hoover was worked up over this
relief business. Well Sir I bet
Mr. Hoover has not even among
his own party a single man that
has as much sympathy and good
feeling for him than Al Smith.
There was no put on about it,
he really meant it when he would

talk of the many things that had
seemed to go wrong through no
fault of the Presidents, yet he
had to bear the brunt of them.
Here was a man that had been
in office long enough to know
what you can be blamed for. No
Sir, Hoovers best booster is Al
Smith, and he had just been
working with Ex President Cool-
idge on A Committee to give away
an Estate that had been left to
Charity, and he had' the highest
■praise for Coolidge, too, and he
says, as 1 have always main-
tained. that Mr. Coolidge has a
great sense of humor, and he
would tell some of it that hap-
pened during their deliberations.
We went over to the Democratic
Club for lunch, and he got to
telling about the animal pets that
the children had
at the mansion
in Albany. He
built almost a
Zoo there to
house them. How
a big pet Bear
that they had
raised from a
cub, had got
loose and got:
over into a girls
Orphanage and
they was all scared to death for
fear he would hurt somebody
and instead these Kids has him
pulling and wooling him around
and they couldent hardly get him
away from them. They was feed-
ing him bread and jam. He
would tell of his dogs his Kids
had. One a great Newfoundland,
that in the summer when it was
so hot they would fix him in the
basement, and they'd keep the
hose on him. He could tell you
every characteristic of every dog,
the more trivial a subject the
more interest he could make it.
No hard feeling, no rancor to-
ward anybody. A Unique man,
with a unique record, polled more
votes than all the other Presi-
dents that were elected, with the
exception of Mr. Hoover. I doubt
if he wants to run again.
Even if he dont he will retire
into private life one of the most,
yes the most popular man of our
time. He is the most human of
our present day figures. He is
not from the soil, but from the
cobblestones, and he knows after
all they all are human and just
alike.

To My Old and New Customers:
Well, the baby chick season is with us again and I am sure many of
you are thinking how strong you should go on the chick business this spring,
owing to the low depression on everything. Now if you will reason out the
future by our past experience you will see this is your time to do your best.
This low price in chicks and eggs have caused thousands to sell off slock
and slack up with the care of their flocks. You know the time is coming
that our surplus supply will soon be exhausted, then the one that prepared
for this will be the one that will win. Now as for myself, we are going to
run business just like we have always done. Times will soon he back to
norma] again if we all work to that end. I am better prepared this season
to give my customers better results for their money than I have ever l)«n.
I have a man and wife to help me with the hatchery and brooder and 1
know we can do much better than before. I have enlarged my storage
brooder so now I can brood 8,000 at one time.
Owing to the low price of eggs at this time and other things in general
our price on heavy chicks will be 10c and light will be 8c. This price will
stand as long as eggs are low. Should eggs advance we would have to
advance price of chicks as all of you know, unless you get a good per
cent of the hatch you can't make a big thing at this price. Now, all of
you wanting your chicks started we will he in a position to brood theni
from 10 to 15 days for you at a very reasonable price. Our aim is to give
you the best and to make our customers satisfied. All we ask is to give
us a trial. Our setting days are Mondays and Fridays of each week. Our
prices on Custom Hatching are 2c for eggs from 500 eggs up and 2 Vic a"
below that amount. Now we want you to drive out to the ranch and look
it over. Us included. After doing so I believe you will buy a bill
chicks. We welcome our friends. Glad to have you. You don't have to
buy the chicks—come and see our pets. Maggie and Jiggs are always gl^
to see the kiddies.
Respectfully,
Lee Strader and
Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Crouch.
