Special Cachet for Brady on Air Mail
Letters Mailed December 10th; Name
Committee to Boost for Route Via Brady
The U. S. Postoffice Department, in co-operation with
the Western Air Lines, has set aside the week of December
6 to 12th, inclusive, to be known as AIR MAIL FEEDER
SURVEY WEEK, and during which time AIR MAIL planes
are scheduled to stop at the Brady airport to pick up AIR
MAIL. This mail will be flown to Houston in time to be
placed aboard the regular AIR MAIL planes leaving that city.
The date of the pick up will be Friday, December 10th, ac-
cording to advice received by A. B. Reagan, local postmaster,
from J. S. Griffith, postmaster at Houston, Texas, and who
has been active in promoting this survey. At the request
of Postmaster Reagan, Mayor B. A. Hallum has named a
committee to co-operate in the survey from the local angle,
and to interest the citizenship in using the air mails on this
particular date, in hopes that Brady may be accorded a
permanent place on the proposed route.

Considering that the demonstra-
tions are confined largely to ex-
amples of what can be done with
home products or, more correctly
speaking, with by-products; how
the home may be improved, beau-
tified, made more comfortable,
more enjoyable, more livable, and
at a minimum cost, is something of
a revelation, such as puts a merit-
ed stamp of approval upon the
work being done thruout Texas by
Miss Jewel Patterson, McCulloch
H. D. agent, and the hundreds of
other demonstration agents in the
Lone Star state.
CONVERTING FLOUR and meal
U sacks into ornate tea towels,
aprons, bedspreads and the like;
use of wool sacks to make rich and
attractive-looking draperies, rugs,
etc.; re-upholstering and refinish-
* chairs and articles of furniture;
Lanished closets completed to
provide convenient shelves, hang-
ers, shoe racks; floors finished with
inexpensive home-made floor wax,
enabling their being easily kept.
These and a hundred and one other
clever ideas are put into use and
practice and serve to convert the
house into a home.
Nor is that all. These achievement
events give opportunity to display
various articles of handiwork, such
as the club members pride them-
selves upon. Hooked rugs and
bedspreads, exquisite of design and
intricate of pattern, are on display:
embroidered and hand-painted
scarfs, table runners, tea towels
and various such items; artistic
burnt wood articles; one marvels
at the wide range of talents. Then
there are exhibits of relics and an-
tiques; objects of historical inter-
est; devices from the long-forgot-
ten past, such as the smoothing
iron, which derived its heat from
a hot rock enclosed within its
shell.
In a word, here was a community
fair. An object lesson, if you
please, in the ways and means of
iving life to the fullest, and en-
joying life, no matter where fate
has decreed that it should be spent.
We, all of us, can find true happi-
ness and contentment, no mat-
ter how small our niche on earth,
if we will but grasp the opportuni-
ties that are presented, and make
fullest possible use of them.

ONE OF THE MOST startling
events of the past week—at
least in newspaper annals and cir-
cles of this part of Texas—was an-
nouncement of the sale by W. A.
Smith and sons, Cecil B. and Wm.
B., of the San Saba News. For
exactly 30 years, not an issue of
the News was published without
the name of Smith at the mast-
head. And in his farewell, the sen-
ior Mr. Smith chronicles briefly,
but succinctly, the guiding spirit
of the publishers thruout this pe-
riod, as follows;
“For these 30 years, as for the
more than 60 years of its publi-
cation, and as it will continue un-
til Gabriel blows his horn, The
News has stood four-square, in
season and out of season, for the
thest ideals of its people, and
for the development and ex-
ploitation of the undreamed na-
tural resources of San Saba
county.”
When Billie Smith retired as pub-
lisher of the News several years
back, upon his appointment as
postmaster at San Saba, he turned
over management of the paper to
his sons, but he continued to con-
tribute his editorial column, and
in which was reflected the creed
as set forth above. Thirty years
is a long time to serve in the news-
paper game. The demands are
many; the rewards comparatively
few. But it must have warmed

MEN TODAY HAVE SAME IDEA ABOUT
McCULLOCH AS COL. JAMES BOWIE HAD
ALL COME HERE TO BETTER THEMSELVES;
BOWIE WAS SEARCHING FOR LOST MINE,
BUT INDIANS DIDN’T KNOW ABOUT IT
One hundred and six years ago
Friday, November 19, 1831, the
710,400 acres, more or less, of
Texas land that is now known as
McCulloch county, was about to
be trod for the first time by white
men. (So far as there is actual
record).
This first entry into the county,
which took place during the late
afternoon of November 20th, was
made by a party of eleven which
was headed by the famous Col.
James Bowie. And this initial en-
try, like the manner in which the
town of Brady obtained its name,
appears to have been accidental.
But Colonel Bowie and his men
seemed to have the same idea in
mind that people today have when
they come to McCulloch, they had
the cockles of the Smiths’ hearts
to be accorded the farewell they
received from the San Saba busi-
ness institutions—an eight-page
edition chock full of advertising.
That is "flowers for the living” in
its fullest sense and meaning.

The new owner and publisher is
M. W. Trussell of Battle Lake,
Minn., a former Tennesseean, who
took over management the past
weekend. In welcoming Mr. Trus-
sell to the Heart o’ Texas, Sauce
does so wholeheartedly. Certainly,
his course has been well-charted;
if he but lives un to and measures
up to the high standard set bv his
predecessors then, indeed, will he
win speedy recognition as an as-
set and as a powerful influence for
the welfare and advancement of
San Sata, San Saba county and
the Heart o’ Texas.
hopes of bettering themselves.
As is commonly known in this
section, Bowie was on his way to
search for the fabled San Saba
mine, the mine that is now called
the "Bowie Mine,” when, judging
from Bowie’s official report of the
trip, he became confused as to his
whereabouts and the night of No-
vember 20th, found him and his
follow ‘encamped at what is now
Calf Creek in McCulloch county,
rather than at the old Spanish
fort some twenty-five miles farth-
er up the San Saba river which
was his destination.
Had Colonel Bowie known on
the 19th what he knew afterward,
it is quite likely that he would have
reversed his steps toward San An-
tonio. for before he left his camp
at Calf Creek, before the sun was
hardly up on the morning of the
21st, the party was attacked by a
large band of Indians (The details
of his fight was printed in this
paper early last year). One of
Bowie’s men was killed and several
wounded. It might also be guessed
that had these Indians known what
they were in for they would prob-
ably have been willing for the par-
ty to search for all the mines they
wished. The Indians might even
have assisted in the search. For
as it was, many of them were rifle-
balled into the “Happy Hunting
Ground.”
Two of the men who were of this
party, Matthew Doyle and Cephas
K. Ham, have many descendants
living in Texas today. A grandson
of Matthew Doyle lives in Brady.

In 1934 only 42 per cent of those

Here’s Prize Story
of Deer Season
The best story of the current
deer hunting season is related in
the "Windmill” column of the
San Angelo Morning Times, as
follows:
An elderly hunter from
Kansas City, admitting that
he was on the first deer hunt
of his life, related his experi-
ences of the hunt at Uvalde.
"I had been told to get out
early and hide myself in the
brush," he said. "I was hid-
den at daybreak and shortly
afterward a deer came close
enough that I could count its
eight 'horns,' but I could not
tell whether it was a buck or a
doe, so I would not sheet.” He
returned empty-handed.
