LIGHTED JULY 4th, 1776
American liberty is a flame that
must be watched and tended if it
is to burn forever.
Blustering winds blowing about
the earth threaten to extinguish
the light that America has held
aloft for more than one hundred
and sixty years.
The men who signed the Declar-
ation of Independence proclaimed
our right to "life, liberty, and the
pursuit of happiness.”
None shall take away that right
so long as we prove worthy of our
great heritage. .

YOUR LIEUT: GOVERNOR
w. O. REED has really done some-
thing about efficiency and economy in
our state government besides talk
about it.
W. O. REED wrote the pay-as-you-go law which put Texas
on a cash basis in 1942, and prevents the Legislature spend-
ing money it does not have.
W. 0. REED believes our state government, like a family,
should live within its income.

Another Skeptic
Convinced
Baytown — (PR) — A sis-
ter-in-law of Mrs. Agnes Smith,
Route 1, Shepherd told her
about the Parker Chiropractic
Clinic. “To be perfectly hon-
est,” states Mrs. Smith, "I
wasn’t sold on the idea of Chi-
ropractic.” Mrs. Smith placed
herself under Parker Chiroprac-
tic Care because she had been
unable for 20 years to get relief
from gall bladder trouble,
heart trouble and a nervous
disorder. “After finding real
comfort in Chiropractic,” Mrs.
Smith says I’m sold on Chiro-
practic now, but most of all,
I’m sold on the Parker Chiro-
practic Clinic.",u

own housework and I feel bet-
ter than I ever did before I be-
came sick.”

pounds.” Mrs. Bond states that
her condition was diagnosed as
arthritis.
“Now after only eight weeks
of adjustment, I not only can

in a millinery shop next week.”
