LEE COUNTY, TEXAS, NEWS — Thursday, September 1S, 1966
Pleasant Grove News
By Mis. Less Davenport
Beginning on this 12th day of
September, if you would check
this community's homes, you
would find no one there but
adults. Only the Dale Browns
have one little girl too young
for school and we have 28 chil-
dren and teenagers, some in
kindergarten, others in school,
and three in college. Keith and
Donnie Brown are in SHSTC,
Huntsville, Leslie Wayne Daven-
port in Waco at James Connally
Technical Institute. Its been
rather busy times in this neck of
the woods.
So we will back up a little on
the news Monday night of Labor
Day. The gang got together for
a cook out. It's fun to rake up
food after a weekend and a holi-
day too. But there was about 50
people present and plenty of food.
Mr. and Mrs. Murry Rodgers are
back in Texas from Morehead,
Ky. They drove by for a short
visit with his parents, Mr. and
Mrs. Lee Rodgers, then left for
South Texas.
Mr. and Mrs. Charlie Turner
attended the Turner reunion in
Cameron Sept. 4th.
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Stanley
welcome a new grand son.

"American democracy could
not survive for long the devel-
opment of an alliance between
government and any interest
group that escapes the disci-
pline of the polling place. Busi-
ness as well as government,
however, share an obligation to
participate in a constructive,
seeking to establish viable
standards and objectives suit-
able to the country's economic,
social, political and technologi-
cal aspirations. This, after all,
is how the public interest is
articulated.”
