Billie Calvert Womack, 89, a re-
tired teacher, died recently at a Fort
Worth nursing home. She was bur-
ied after graveside service in the
Marietta Cemetery in Marietta.
She was preceded in death by her
husband, W.G. Womack in 1957.
She had taught in Spur, Eastland,
Paducah, and Floydada before mov-
ing to Fort Worth.
She arrived in Paducah as Miss
Billie Calvert, and taught school
until she married the "handsome,
single" mathematics teacher, W. G.
Womack, who later became the high
school principal. She taught music
and expression lessons and they
built a home on 14th Street. Their
children, Bob Guy Womack , and
Gladeene Womack Lee, were born
in Paducah. Both Mr. and Mrs.
Womack were active in the First
Baptist church here, and moved
away in the summer of 1935.
Mrs. Womack returned for the
1991 school reunion, accompanied
by her son. She enjoyed seeing
former students and old friends,
and will be remembered by those
who knew her.
She is survived by her son Bob,
daughter Gladeene, five grandchil-
dren, and two great-grandchildren.

that community's first institution
of learning. It sat over in the pasture
north of the railroad some one
hundred yards or so and a little east
of the intersection of the two farm-
to-market roada that run to Quanah.
According to Mrs. Rasbury, it
was a very good little house and the
trustees removed the partition
between two rooms to make space
for the twenty or thirty students
that attended. Mrs. Rasbury tells
that her little daughter, Christine,
was too young to take part in the
classes and when the days were too
long, she took a nap on a pallet that
her mother kept ever ready.
Lige Goodwin lived in the old
Broadmore house at this time and
he had no children in school. This
beautifully located oldhome sat atop
a high hill and has been a landmark
of the community for many years,
the school having taken its name
from it. Through the years the
original name of Broadmoor was
changed to Broadmore.
In 1913, a new one-room school
house was built about one half mile
south of the railroad on the east side
of the farm-to-market road that runs
to Quanah, today. During the time
the school was housed in these small
houses, itborethelessdigifiedname
of "Shorty". The young people of
that community were very social
minded. There was a party or a
square dance almost every Friday
or Saturday night; singings at the
school house on Sunday afternoons;
and literary societies that met
frequently.
In the fall of 1922, another and
much larger school house was built .

Neal Parks' home.

resort," Smith said.
Last October, the TDH closure of
several rural health clinics and con-
tract awards with Texas Tech and
University of Texas medical Branch,
Galveston, to provide Title V ser-
vices came under fire.
The Tech contracts, according to
rural health care officials, could be
devastating for rural health care
and force closure of rural health
clinics, if Tech did not back off.
Dave Clark, senior vice president
of diversified services with High
Plains Baptist Hospital, Amarillo,
described the Tech takeover "like a
king conquering a country."
Judge Dean Decker, Childress
County, said "I think Childrss Re-
gional Medical Center is providing
excellent medical care to all our
people." He had commented to Gov-
ernor George Bush in a letter, that
"the public is not well served (by T
DH decision to award contracts to
Tech) and will be even less well
served when these actions result in
hospital closures and loss of doctors
in our communities."
Whereas, the quality of each program is primarily d•
by the individual teachers and caregivers who perfo:
work; and
blood poisoning and died within a
short time after having been
scratched on a chaparral bush. A
Latimer boy, son of Mr. and Mrs.
Will Latimer, died and little Billy J.
Farmer died almost without
warning during the school term
which left the school in a state of
sorrow and shock for many weeks.
In the first few weeks after our
school had been transferred to
Paducah in the fall of 1936, one of
its former pupils, Rayford Flemming
experienced a heart attack and fell
dead as he was finishing the last lap
of a relay race.
In June of 1938, Mr. L.C. Payne,
who had served as trustee of the
school for many years, and his young
daughter, Wanda, were drowned as
they swam in the Swearingen Tank.
Wanda had been one of the most
loved pupils in the school.
Broadmore School was very
active in Interscholastic League
contests; their large upstairs
auditorium served as a community
gathering place; and their school
spirit and loyalty were very keen.

Though money can't buy happiness,
With purchases ive like to flaunt
We are enabled to possess
The kind of misery we want;
Yet lessons of our faith imply
That hoarding of excessive wealth
Results in taxes much too high
And often, damage to our health.
According to a Bible phrase.
The love of money is the root
Of evil, till we mend our ivays
And make our faith a substitute.
So give your loved ones what they need,
But spend more time with them alone;
Because they are, as you'll concede,
The greatest treasure you could own.
