Here is a scene at the opening of the mew-Akin canning company at Groesbeck, Texas, giving ut-
ploy me nt to 150 persons and providing an outlet for vegetables produced by 100 farmers. The plane
has already put up 100,000 cans of beans, for which farmer* received $50 to $75 an acre for their crop.

car came toward them on the
wrong side of the road, forcing
them off the pavement. The
mud along-the road made it im-
possible for them to hold the
car in check and it ran down
a ditch, ’where it was badly
damaged.
Neither of the occupants was
seriously- hurt, however, and
Mr. Bridewell was able to pro-
ced to Dallas, Mr. Whitson re-

The Mirror today received
the following telegram:
“East Texas Singers Associ-
ation voted unanimously for
Gilmer in 1933. Very glad to
be of service to my old friends.
Virgil O. Stamps."
This year the meeting was
held at Mexia, June 24. 25 and
26, and Gilmer made a strong
bid for the 1933 convention.
Telegrams were dispatched to
the officers of the Association,
by the Rotary Club, Chamber
of Commerce, such well-known
officials of singing bodies as
Grady Lansdale, Archie Owen
and Doyal Loyd.
It is estimated that more
than 3,000 people attended the
meeting just closed at Mexia,

charge of aggravated assault.
Both made bond and were
freed Sunday night.
It appears the two had be-
come embroiled over an argu-
ment about a moonshine still,,
and exchanged shots with shot-
guns. _ Dennis was hit with
three number 2 shot, above the
heart, in his left arm and his
left leg respectively. Watson’s
left shoulder was hit by- a
charge from Dennis’ gun.
They were not close enough
for the shot to do much harm,
and after a little first aid By
Dr. J. C. Winn, were able to
make bond and get their free-
dom.
The shooting occurred on the
Floyd Dennis place, about ten
miles mnorthwest of Gilmer.
Officers found about 80 gal-
ions of mash and a still for
.making whiskey, which was
still hot. Also a small amount
of whiskey was taken. This
was found where the shooting
took place, about half a mile
from the Floyd Dennis home.
Examining trials are sehed-
uled for Thursday of this week

Sen. Barkley then finished
the sentence he had started. He
said nothing to indicate wheth-
er or not hp thought the dry
law a success or 'a failure, but
said Congress should ask that
every state hold a convention
of delegates to decide for each
state its attitude—whether for
repeal or continuance. These
delegates should be elected by
the vote of the people, hi other
words, referenda taken by the
several states. In case of re-
peal, the federal government
should protect dry states from
traffic from wet ones.
The suggestion is likely to
get unanimous consent when
voted on as a part of the plat-
form.

Bogus $10 Bills
In Circulation
At least one counterfeit $10
bill was passed in Gilmer over
the week end, and citizens are
warned to be on the lookout, as
counterfeiters usually pass, as
much money at a time as they
can get away with.
The bill that was taken was
not hard to identify, as counter-
feit, being’ printed on an in-
ferior grade of paper and lack-
ing the silk threads found in
genuine currency.
Besides, the engraving is not
as fine or as clear as on genu-
ine money.
If possible, the officers
should be notified at once' if
