LANCASTER TELLS
OF BOSTON MEET
SAYS IT IS WRONG TU VI 1H)S-
TON PEOPLE HAVE H E
IN VEIN'S.
Rev. C. E. Lancaster, pastor of'
the First Baptist Church at|
Pampa, and the official delegate;
lrom the l'ampa Rotary Club to i
the Inteniational Rotary eon ven-
ticm at Boston this summer, made
an interesting talk to the Canad-
ian Rotary Club Tuesday
on the convention and
he made en route.
He said that the idea some
people in this part, of the country
have oi the New Kngland people
that "ice water runs in their
veins," is all wrong as prov-
en by the hospitality dis-
played by the Hostonians during
the convention. He said he
doesn't beliese there ever was a
convention of any kind' anywhere
where the delegates were so roy-
ally entertained and received such
warm hospitality as did the
tarians at Boston.
The fact that the
rounded by historic
much. A thousand
were ready at, call to escort any
of the visitors to any spot in
Boston or to any of the historic
points in that vicinity.
The trip to Boston, as de-
scribed by Kev. Lancaster, was
a wonder. He went to Chicago
and viewed' the World's Fair for
a few days. He then left with a
party of Kotarians from the
northwestern states for Toronto.
They took a boat from there to
Niagara Falls and on from there
to Montreal and down the St.
Lawrence by boat. That trip in
itself. Kev. Lancaster believes, is
the most wonderful of any in this
country...
Dee Woriey entertained the
club and guests with two num-
bers on an accordion. Guests
of the meeting were: Rev. and
Mrs. C. K. Lancaster. Pampa;
Marry Wilbur. Jr.. Harry Rath-
jen, Dr. Dossie Wiggins of Ab-
ilene: K. W. Landers of Abilene;
Worley and Professor D. W.
Ricnards of the Wisconsin School
of Mines, who is visiting Dr. E.
H. Snyder.
M. N. Davie of the Panhandle
Lumber Company, was intro-
duced as a new member of the
Rotary Cluo.

In a game replete with queer
plays and base running the Pampa
All Stars won from Canadian 3
to 0 at the Magnolia park at
Pampa Sunday.
The All Stars got three hits
off the pitching of Tom Riley and
scored three unearned' runs while
Canadian gathered eight hits off
Meeks of the All Stars but could
not bunch them to produce any
tallies. Both Riley and Meeks
pitched good games with plenty
of speed, curves and good con-
trol.
Leonard Riley starred at bat
for Canadian with three singles
in four times up. Meeks of the
All Stars got two of their three
hits and struck out eleven.
Canadian will play at Camargo.

Ranchers in the upper Texas
Panhandle counties and the Ok-
lahoma strip say the drouth has
destroyed' the new crop of prairie
chickens. This area in former
years offered excellent hunting.
The season will be open for four
days this year, but an appeal is
being made to hunters to ignore
the season in order that the old
birds will be saved.
Tack in the Amarillo News
quotes H E. Hoover on what the
land owners of this county have
agreed upon to prevent killing
chicken this season:
•Dear Tack: I wish you would
make it known through The News-
Globe that the land-owners ot
Hemphill County have made a
careful survey of the prairie
chicken crop and find it a com-
plete failure. We have there-
fore entered into an agreement
to neither hunt or permit prairie
chicken hunting during this open
season. We have also Wedto
prosecute anyone found hunting
upon our lands. To permit shoot-
ing this season could but deplete
the old stock and practically de-
stroy this valuable game bird.

LIPSCOMB COUNTY GIRL
IN NATL QUILT CONTEST
With Canadian loyally respond-
ing to the President's NRA ap-
peal, directors of the Canadian
Chamber of Commerce met Mon-
day afternoon, to act in co-oper-
ation with the government in its
program.
The following men were ap-
pointed as a committee to act as
a steering committee in handling
the organization for NRA work
in this city: C. W. Callaway,
chairman; C. A. Studer, R. H.
Stone. H. R. Miller and N. Abra-
ham.
As there are some points that
are not clear in the minds of
many of those who want to sign
up for NRA, it was decided to
call a meeting of the merchants
of Canadian for Friday night, at
8 o'clock in the City Hall, when
a full explanation and discus-
sion will be entered into.
Those who nave signed the
NRA are already arranging their
work to fully abide by the blanket
code sent to all employers by
President Roosevelt. These con-
cerns will each conform to the
blanket code until such time as
they are able to line up with a
code in their particular line of
business.
One of the first to put new
hours and higher wages , into ef-
fect here was the committee
handling the Texas Rehabilitation
and Relief funds. Employes in
that group have been receiving
$1.50 a day for eight hours. As
soon as the blanket code was
received here the committee im-
mediately responded by making
the working day six hours long
and the pay $1.80 for the six
hours.
Other lines of business will no
doubt adjust themselves in a
few days and hours and scales
of wages will he worked out.
According to an International
News Service at Springield. Mass.,
a revival of early American
handicrafts for women, and a
renewed interest in needlework
has been one of the benefits of
the depression. Mrs. Schuyler
F. Herron, director of the home
department of the Eastern States
Exposition from September 17 to
23, said that the second national
patchwork quilt contest held in
connection with the 17th annual
exposition has elicited 1.600 in-
quiries from women in every sec-
tion of the United States and
from far-away Alaska.
A Lipscomb County girl, Miss
Mittie Hill, of Darrouzett. ent-
ered a quilt made by her grand-
mother prior to the Civil War.
which together with other family
treasures was hidden for tour
years in a hollow log.
o
MINIMUM PAY FOR TEACHERS
The state committee on classi-
fied and accredited high schools
in annual session ruled recently
that all high school teachers in
other than classified state aid
schools shall be paid a salary of
not less than $90 montly. or
$810 a year. Salaries of teachers
in elementary grades of such
schools were fixed at not less
than $75 monthly, or $675 an-
nually.
The committee decided that
schools that have taught less
than 160 days in 1932-33 be
dropped from the list of classi-
fied schools and those that have
taught less than 170 days, but
more than 160 days be suspended
and if they do not increase their
term to the required minimum of
170 days in 1933-34 that they be
dropped.—Texas Outlook.
