Our annual Health Week
program is being sponsored by
the community and school
with the hope that everyone
will do his share to aid in
cleaning the places where they
live that it may be a healthier

to do some real work and get
results from the efforts put
forth for cleaning up.

Miss Viola McKenzie at the
home of Mrs. M. F. Mersman

Bermuda grass in the yard, it
wasn’t necessary to plant grass

well plowed, worked and level-

County Meet at Sealy, and that
one hundred ’percent. Every
effort put forth for the benefit
of the League Meet was a suc-

the job to do his part.
The meet was an interesting
affair. Most of the schools of
the county took an active part
in the program.
The following schools won
first honors: Bellville High
School, J. O. Williams High
School at Wallis, Grant School,
San Felipe, Union Center,
Buckhorn and Sealy. The ath-

WHEN DREAMS COME TRUE
We suppose there are limits, somewhere, to the power of
the human mind to imagine the impossible and the power of
human ingenuity, after the dream has taken form, to make it
■come true. But sometimes it seems to us that nothing is im-
possible.
What set that thought in motion was reading the report
from the laboratory of the Massachuetts Institute of Tech-
nology of a demonstration given there the other day, wherein
one metal was changed into anoher by the power of atomic
energy. Silver was converted into cadmium in the presence of
an excited audience of scientists. Nor is this the first time the
’elements have been transmuted. Some years ago Professor
Soddy of England found that he could convert radium into lead.
It would be only one step farther than that to realize the
dream of the ancient alchemists, who sought in vain for the
^philosophers’ stone” that would enable them to convert lead
into gold. Modern science has demonstrated that their dream
was not so silly as men had thought up to a few years ago. It
may yet come true.
So, too, may every other dream of the human race, given
time. Who believed thirty years ago that man would ever fly?
Only a few dreamers, including a couple of young fellows who
were running a bicycle repair shop in Dayton, Ohio.
Every new discovery of science brings the world closer to
the day that almost everybody has dreamed of, when mankind
shall have so completely conquered and subdued nature as to
create an earthly Paradise. It has truly been said by more than
one of the great scientific minds of the world that we know
nough now to abolish poverty forever, to reduce every man’s
necessity for labor down to the simplist “chores.”
We fear, however, that the human race must go through a
few more thousand years of mental and spiritual development
before it will be ready for the millenium toward which science is
steadily pointing they way.

Notice of Meeting
The Peters-Hacienda Club
will hold its regular meeting
on March 27 at the home of
Mrs. Hy. Vornkahl. Everybody
welcome.
N/EN who study haulage costs
IVI know that Chevrolet trucks
are as outstanding in economy and
durability as they are in price.
Chevrolet trucks handle tough
hauling jobs day after day at
small operating cost, because they
are built to Chevrolet’s own high
standards of quality in every part.

in-head engines are truck motors,

“Lawns respond readily to
fertilizer and the best kind to
use is well rotted barnyard
manure,” Miss McKenzie, home
demonstration agent told the
Wallis Women’s Club at a
meeting on March 12, at the
home of the yard demonstra-
tor, Mrs. Fred Einkauf. “It is
best to apply this in the fall
and winter when the season’s
rains take it to the roots, but
it may be applied now, even to
the depth of several inches,”
she continued.
We held a round table dis-
cussion on gardens and vege-
tables adapted to different
types of soil; also on bedrooms
and candlewick decorations for
the same.
Miss Mildred Horton, State
home agent, and Miss Neely of
A. & M. College, were in our
county this past week and vis-
ited some of our Club members.
Our next meeting will be
held March 26 at the Wallis
Community Kitchen.—Reporter.

“WORK RELIEF” OR DOLE?
It seems to us that there are two sides to the much-debated
subject of “work-relief” versus the dole. We are glad that we
dle nat hnxzn.dha Gnel cocicin- +n
The President’s plan, as he offered it to Congress, is to put
all the employable persons who are now on relief, at work on
various kinds of permanent improvements but at wages which
will be comparable to the amounts doled out for no work at all.
The psychology of that is that the moral of the recipients of
relief is being shattered by getting something for nothing, and
that it is better for them, and so for the nation, that they be
required to perform useful work for what they receive. But the
President holds that this payment should not be large enough
to tempt men who have jobs to leave them for relief work, or to
keep them from accepting private employment when that is
-offered them.
Those arguments sound reasonable, but so also do some of
the arguments advanced on the other side. There is the argu-
ment of the business organizations, who point out that, as busi-
ness and industry must eventually pay the costs, relief should
be administered as economically as possible, and the straight
cash dole, if kept down to a bare subsistence level, is the most
economical way. There is also the argument of the representa-
tives of labor, that any man who does any work should be paid
the prevailing rate of wages for that work. There is a psycho-
logical basis for that; it is not good for a man’s morale to know
that others, no more competent or industrious than he, are get-
ting more money for the same kind of work merely because they
happen to have a different paymaster.
The woist feature of direct money relief is that men come
to regard it as a right, rather than as charity. In abolishing
the poorhouse with its stigma of pauperism, it may be that a
service has been done to those unfortunate enough to be in
need of assistance from the public purse.
