Several, months ago a citizen (
wondered why it was that Steph- (
euville was so far behind other |
towns in Toxas, although she was j
fifty years old Her friend talked (
to him as follows: “You have I (
lived here forty years. You have |
lived in the same tumble-down, <
rtmehaoklo hut that you am- <
menost* fife in. You have never |
planted a tree or flower. All that
you have ever done wee to throw a
few stones on the wide strip in i
(root of roar house, which 70a i
call a pavement. The truth of
the matter !• Stephenville has
had too many 'tbiiige' like you as
ci tisane, and it ie no wonder she
haa been alow in advancing. In
all truth, if all men were hkeyr-a
autld would go bajk tn bar-
be-ieai.”—Stephenville Tribune.

1 moan-backs; and it io one that io
deserved, loo. Niusteaths of the

the mark and eet it a notch high-
er. ft wseal! potato, too.—Tiap- 5
eon Times. (
Yea, Wood county can boast of (
an eight pound yam and it waa (
grown near Alba, too. But as the (
potato growers are not through ,
digging their potatoes we expect j
to get 10-|X>*ndare. It m possible ]
tut old Wood and altogether pro- ,
liable.—Alba News.
A Sabin* farmer ha* sent to ;
the enterprise office a sweat po-
tato weighing c;gl»t pounds. Of 1
course he had larger ones in ths ,
field, but tight mosey and
freight car capacity had to be
considered. — Beaumont Enter-
prise
It was the biggest fish, wasn't
it that pot away? An eight
