Battery Work!
If you are in need of battery work the
North Texas Garage is ready to serve
you. Don’t overlook the opportunity in
getting our 8-hour re-charging service.
Mrs. Wjratt was born
1848 in East Texas, and
ried to W. D. Wyatt on February
22, 1871. They came to Cooke coun-
ty more than forty-five years ago,
■nd had resided 'in the Marysville
community since that time. Mr.
Wyatt died in April, 1922.
The deceased is survived by eight
children, two daughters, Mrs. O. A.
Ballinger of Sulphur, Okla., and Mrs.
E. A. Ballinger, Marysville, and six
sons, W. A. and J. R. Wyatt of
Marysville, F. CL, Sivils Bend, L. M.
and M. E. Wyatt, Gainesville and A.
C. Wyatt of Fletcher, Okla. She is
also survived by thirty-nine chil-
dren and seven great grand children.
Mrs. Wyatt became a member of
the Baptist Church when she was
thirty years of age, and had been a
devoted' Christian since that time.
Sh® was highly respected and loved
by a large circle of friends through-
out the county, who are grieved to
learn of her death.
Funeral services were held Thurs-
day afternoon at 3 o’clock at the
Baptist church in Marysville, Rev. J.
Thetford officiating, after which in-
terment was made in the cemetery
there. A large number of Gainesville
people, friends of the family, attend-
ed the services.
The six sons of Mrs. Wyatt acted
as pallbearers, and Undertaker 8. W.
Gibson of Gainesville had charge of
funeral arrangements.
When in need of a battery, don't fail to see us and FOB
won't be disappointed. Quality and price count the moat
in the end. The price is right and the standard is higher.
Not only do we give you the 8-hour serv-
ice, but the manner in which we re-
charge your batteries gives them almost
everlasting service.
Fort Worth, Feb. 20.—(Associated
Press.)—The Southwestern Baptist
Theological Seminary, to become a
south-wide institution, following its
formal transfer last night to the
Southern Baptist convention. The
seminary was founded 15 years ago
for the training of preachers, mission-
aries and other Christian workers of
Texas and neighboring states of the
southwest.
What they lacked in speech arid
bearing, the deaf basketball quintet
of the’Oklahoma State Institution
made up in eye sight and speed and
as a result of their ability to break
up the Leopard passing attack and
in turn work the ball down the court
to- their own goal, the silent squad
from Sulphur nosed out the Gaines-
ville High school eagers on the local
gym field Wednesday night by the
close score of 24 to 19.
The contest was one of the fastest
seen on the Newsome Dougherty
Memorial high school court this sea-
son. The deaf mutes, with a keen
sense of action and sight, smothered
the highly touted passing game of
the Leopards. So fast di<r they work
the ball over the court, the local
eagers found it difficult to keep the
visitors covered and the long goal
shooting of Hamontree, star forward
of the invaders furnished the finish-
ing touches to the Maroon and White
defeat.
Valley View, Feb. 21.—Mrs. Della
Kirk, 44 years of age, wife of J. W.
Kirk of the Mountain Springs com-
munity, east of here, died Thursday
night after a long illness. Mrs. Kirk
(nee Huey) was born and reared near
where she died and leaves, besides
her husband and other relatives, a
host of friends to mourn her death.
Interment was made in New Hope
cemetery, near Mountain Springs,
last Friday afternoon.

preciation of the beautiful floral of-

tion. We pray God’s richest bless-

San Antonio, Feb. 21.—(By United
Press.)—Armed only with nature’s
weapons, a polecat today took com-
plete possession of the Southern Pa-
cific Railway station, routing 25 or
35 employes and passengers, holding
complete sway for half an hour. A
’! negro was finally persuaded to at-
tack the “bouquet” and arming him-
self with a broom, struck the cat on
the head, and then forgetting him-
self in the hour of victory, exultant-
ly jumped on the animal with both
feet.
The polecat was killed and remov-
ed, but as it was impossible to ,de-
> termine which was the more offen-
sive, the negro or the polecat. The
former was ordered to remain out m
the fresh air until he “smelled bet-
ter.”
tion and support of the people of
this city and surrounding communi-
ties Friday evening, when it pre-
sented “Stop Thief” a very amusing
three act comedy before a crowd of
more than six hundred people, by
far the largest that had ever wit-
nessed a production of the organiza-
tion.
The applause given the clever
group of amateurs indicated that the
play was enjoyed more than any
previous offering, and the action
moved off very smoothly with no
long intermissions between acts. Pre-
ceding the play, Jack LeMmon’ gave
a thirty minute pipe organ recital,
enhancing the evening’s entertain-
ment to a considerable degree.
E. I. McGee as the absent minded
old man, gave a charactreization sel-
dom equalled on the amateur stagey
and Bernard H. Mylias was equally
good as Dr. Willoughby, the young
doctor, who was made the victim of
the theif’s clever work. A Morton
Smith as Janies Cluney, the bride-
groom, handled a difficult role, and
was ably supported by Miss Una
Minnick as Madge Carr, the bride.
Mrs. John J. Lindsay as Mrs. Carr,
a character role, was splendid as the
deaf old lady, and ^farie Crudgington
and Olga Cochran as her two daugh-
ters did splendi work.
James Red Ford as Jack Doogan,
the thief, gave his usual good per-
formance, and received rounds of ap-
plause, while Miss Edith Johnson as
Nell, his accomplice also did credit
to the play.
B. F- Mitchell as Mr. Jamison al-
most stopped the show with his sin-
cere characterization of the man
whose bonds had been stolen just as
the market was going up, and who
threatened to send the whole crowd
to jail and at the conclusion of one
scene, the applause lasted several
minutes, indicating, that the audience
was appreciating his efforts to the
fullest extent.
William T. Johnson as Rev. Mr.
Spelain, the minister, was so clever-'
ly made up that his appearance on
the stage was the signal for an out-
burst of merriment, and the dignity
of his bearing and speech brought
out his work as one of the features
of the play. Theodore B. Crumly
as the police sergeant, figured prom-
inently in the play, and his “hard
boiled” manner brought numerous
laughs from the gathering. Arthur
Lee Joyner as Joe Thompson, the de-
tective, rounded out as good a cast
as has been seen in many months.
Raymond Allen, Keeler Anderson,
George Atkins and J: J. Lindsay as
policemen, and Walter' Tinsley as a
chauffeur played minor parts which
rounded out the effectiveness of
many situations in a creditable man-
ner. $
The enlarged mechanical staff of
the Little Theatre has made it pos-
sible to keep the action of the plays
moving more smoothly than hereto-
fore and these new members are aid-
ing the organization to a great ex-
tent. The new members of the staff
are E. I. McGee, assistant director;
Arthur Lee Joyner, assistant stage
manager; Ward Henderson, assist-
ant property man, and Dow Clements,
electrician.
Yellow with age, and badly worn
though its seventy-(five years of

ancient documents to a brand new

Thia communication was conveyed

_
Baton Rouge, La., Feb. 19.—(Asso-

wired the two Louisiana United
United States senators and ' eight
congressmen requesting them to use
their influence to cause the defeat
of bills now before several states leg-
islatures relative to a tax on cotton
seed oil products.
Atlanta, Feb. 19.—(By Associated

day beginning to file into line for
concerted action against the passage
of alleged diacrimitory legislation
against cotton seed oil products, fol-
lowing the requests of Governor Mc-
Lean of North Carolina for co-opera-
tion.
The North Carolina T ‘

against any such legislation while
Governor Walker of Georgia an-
nounced he would co-operate fully
with Governor McLean.
Ten states said to be considering
action on such measures are Florida,

Considerable interest is being man-
isfested in the Callisburg oil field st
Fort Worth, according to W. D.
Garnett, well known local attorney,
who has just returned from a busi-
ness trip to the Panther City. Th®
active drilling campaign started in
Cooke county has caused all atten-
tion to be focused on this section at
the present.
there is a constant dribble of pen-
nies and nickels and dimes through
little fingers. Father and mother,
uncles and aunts, friends and neigh-
bors all vie with each other in hand-
ing out the coins to the samll spend-
thrifts to squander as they will. It’s
all part of'the same short-sighted
extravagance of pleasing ourselves by
pleasing the children. But is it fair
to them?
After all, every growing child is
developing wants' and real necessi-
ties that sooner or later may out-
run our resources. ■ Why not look
