Red Cross Roll Call
Beginning on Armistice and running through Thanks-
giving, each year, is annual Roll Call period for the Red
Cross- Mrs. Oscar Windel is the director for Burleson coun-
ty, and she has several volunteer helpers. This great mercy
organization began at Geneva, Switzerland, August 22nd,
1864; and the American Red Cross society was organized in
1881, under the leadership of Clara Barton, who was it's first
president. She iniated the first care and nursing of soldiers
in the Civil war from 1861-1865; then nursed in the German-
Ftench war of 1870, where she discovered the Red Cross
society and it's great work. She worked from 1861 to 1881
to get the United States congress to recognize the Red Cross.
She was "a born nurse". When only 11 years old, on a farm
in Masschusetts, her brother was an invalid in bed two years
from a fall, and she quit school and nursed him to recovery.
She could handle the stock as well as the people, for she car-
ried a lump of sugar in her pocket, and the horses followed
her, begging for a lump. She was in full control of the hos-
pital service in the Spanish-American war of 1898-99, and
held the same position in far awa„ óouth Africa the r.ext year
in the Boer war; she passed away before the World War, but,
her spirit carried on through the RedCross.
We need to call to mind the history of this society; it
has a glorious record. It has all been free-will money and
♦inift and service. It began as a wartime service, but, it's
scope hi"* been extended to help in all great calamities, and
in fact in every condition of life where need exists. An hour
was given in a nation-wide hook up last Saturday night over
the radio, at which time Admiral Grayson, president, placed
Smith in full charge of the program. Numbers of lead-
ers in the Red Cross recounted the benefits that are being
rendered. Among which are, service to the blind, by furnish-
ing them books and magazines made in Braille print and
t^pAhing them wood and fiber works in order to make a liv-
From Theory
To Practice
By O. W. Sad berry
Most naturally more is needed
than good instructions. The facul-
ty and students of our school were
indeed glad to have the county su-
perintendent and state inspectors
visit us in the past week; also the
district supervisor of area three of
the agriculture work in the person
of J. N. Freeman, M.S. Investiga-
tions are being made as to locat-
ing an N.F.A. camp, and the
Smith Graced school is anxious
that it is located in our community
near the Bracos that affordB a na-
tural landscape as well us the
sweet fragment fumes of atmos-
phere for real out door engage-
ments. At this season much com-
parison can be made of past years.
Practically in every back yard
how is seen a nicc mustard patch
and other leafy vegetables. The
appreciative part is that the 40 qt
cookers and automatic sealers re-
cently bought are not able to serve
the various homes that are now
canning vegetables, yearlings and
potatoes. Farmers in this section
are giving much consideration to
the soil problem, some are plant-
ing winter cane crops and graze
crops and others are breaking lands
in order to store a part of the win-
ter and fall rains.

The following couples were mar-
ried recently by Rev. F. H. Horak:

parsonage.

community, and Miss Annie Vavra,
of Dime Box, were married at the

p-nd Miss Milady Horcica, of Cald-
well, were married at the parson-
age on October 30th.

vorak, both of Providence, were
marired at the parsonage Sunday,

with a beautiful Red Cross uniform and certificate of life
membership by Admiral Grayson Saturday night. Mrs.
Franklin D. Roosevelt paid a beautiful tribute to the Red
Cross on the program, and Real Admiral Grayson stated that
the First Lady of the land wore the Red Cross nurse uniform
during our part of the World war, which was not known to
many of our people.
We should all be proud to be members of the Red Cross,
which now has a membership of over 20 million adults and

Old Age Pension
We give a few of the outstanding points of the old
age pension law which has been passed by both houses of
the legislature and which will be signed by the Governor.
It will not go into effect until February 15th, 1936, and pen-
sions will not be paid until after July 1st. 1936. It might be
later than that time, unless the legislature will pass some
kind of tax measures to pay the bill. In other words the pen-
:sipn cannot be put into effect and paid until the money is
raised through taxation.

To receive aid the applicant must be over 65 years of
age; must have resided in Texas 5 years or more within the
fag; there are one million men and women being taught how last 9 years. A single person with an income of $360.00, or
to render first aid in the CCC camps; the earthquakes in
Helena, Montana; hurricanes of Florida; floods of Nebraska
and Vanan*; the famines during last year's drought ki Texas
qnH elsewhere; the floods of the Mississippi; epidemics of
typhoid fever in the mountains near Louisville, Kentucky,
and the wonderful service rendered ex-service men. They
related that during the past year there had been 158 differ-
ent objects for relief. That aid has been given 340,000 ex-
service men since the world war.
Will Sogers carried many banners for the society, and did
net charge anything for his services; in 1931, he put on per-
formances in many cities of Texas and raised thousands of
dollarg; now he has also gone, and the people are being giv-
es the opportunity to give money for a memorial to his mem-
ory and services on behalf of man-kind.

married $720.00; or if single and owns as much as $5000.00,
and married $7500.00 worth of real property and other pro-
perty ; or if single and owns $500 in cash or salable notes and
securities, or married and owns $1000 in cash or salable se-
curities, notes etc., cannot draw a pension.
If a person sells or assigns property within two years
of time of application for purpose of getting ready to apply
for a pension, he or she will be cut off. If husband or wife
are able to furnish support to the other out of his or her
property no aid can be made. Where a person haa an income
of a part of $360.00, the state can supplement it up to $860.00
and thus not pay the full amount.
The Governor will appoint 3 commissioners for terms
of 6 years to administer the law; they in turn will appoint a
director and auditor; and local assistants will be appointed
Who have lived in the respective counties as citizens for more
than 4 years.
Applicants will be furnished forms to fill, and rest as-
sured there will be plenty of questions to answer The pub-
lic will be notified in plenty of time when to make application.
Pay no attention to people who offer their services in getting
you a pension. Such will be subject to a fine, no doubt. You
can tell pretty well from the above, which is about the gist
of the law, whether you will be in the list of those entitled
to aid, and just wait wlthpatience the set up of the law.
To those who opposed this law for any reason, let us
say, "forget it", it Is law and is going to stay the law, and
will be a blessing to mankind. This money will all be spent
at home with the grocers, meat markets, dry goods stores,
and landowners for rent. It is the beat way to take care of
the aged of every class. Some mode of taxation will be pass-
ed, and it will be paid and not felt any more severely, than is
our gasoline and cigarette tax.
The Dallas News states it this way: "Boiled down, what
the Texas law provides is that if you are 66, in actual indi-
gence, without legally responsible relatives, the State intends
to give you $16.00 per month, if that much is actually re-
utred to supply the needs under your normal standard of
living. Presently the Federal Government will supplement
that with another $16.00 under the same conditions. Probably
all ef the uncertainty will be cleared away by July 1st, 1986,
when the new law is to go into effect, provided the Governor
signs it".
