masterful manner and his exhibi-

this act.

big bad- bucking bull that has
been brought to every roded since

.Which has thrown every rider but
one that has got upon his broad
massive back. The, lad stayed
about as long on that'hard pitch-

Big Hit
"Aunt Samanthy Rule§ The
Roost, a three act play with
elpven characters which was pre-
sented on last Friday night at the
Newport School building, was at-

much favorable comment was

The proceeds derived from the
attendance amounted to some-
thing over $16.00 and was very
gratifying to the P.-T A and the
members of the cast.

fBhiaF there seems to ~be great dan-

It all seems to depend on wheth-
er the German’s supplies and, war
equipment hold out to meet the
needs of their continuous assaults
for months to come on the west-
ern front.
2t has been stated should Hitler
win the war that there is a prob-

250,009,000 people under his en-

The present European war-
wouldn’t have taken place if the
Allies hadn’t baen'asleep and let
Germany get such a start on them
in the manufacture of war equip-
ment. And any foreign power
will be mighty slow in attacking
America when she has fifty or a
hundred thousand fast speeding
bombing planes at hand and a
huge navy lining'her shores.
Henry Ford has i------ -----
within six months time his plants
will be in a position to turn out
q thousand airplanes a day. Gerry
many has bebn credited with
turning out three thousand planes
in last March. But it will be
many years before Germany can
compete with American manu-
facturers in the production of war
supplies at the way things are be-
ing pepped up all along the line
in America just now.
And another important factor is
that America-must not-overlook
i and
Japan will b elined up with Ger-
many should she win this war.
This tremendous fact is what
has caused some men to state that
European conditons will be estab-
lishe df o rathousand years to
come should the Allies be con-
quered.

FERGUSONS WON T DENY MILK
TO INSANE PATIENTS
Bread and milk have always been regarded as the basic food that
sustains human life. With a loaf of bread and a bottle of milk, no one
need starve tu death, " ■'
' Oiir-present governor apparently agrees that bread is the staff of
life, because he never overlooks a chance to advertise flour. He seems
to regard milk, however, as a minor and unnecessary commodity.
When the last legislature appropriated $12,000 to build and equip
barns and purchase dairy eaTtle for Thl“ San AttluhlU State HOMplial
in order that insane patients might have nourishing milk to drink,
the governor promptly vetoed the item. When the legislature.appro-
priated $16,000 for the same purpose to be used at the Terrell State
Hospital for the insane, his veto fell again.'
This is the same governor who is broadcasting over the radio and
through his private newspaper that the legislature prevented him
from keeping his promise to "the poor unfortunates of the State.
The Fergusons promise not to veto any appropriation which the
legislature, in its wisdom, may She fit to pass for the alleviation of
suffering among our insane. /
