Father Kelly oelebrated |first
mass at 7:30 a.m. at which a very
large number received holyjcom-
munion. The seoond and prin-
cipal mass, at 10 a. m. was cele-
brated by the Rev. P. T. Carew
of New Jersey. Father Carew
preached an eloquentjfand ap-
propriate sermon on the resureo-
tion and inoluded the impressive
ceremonies by the solemn bene-
diotion of the blessed saorament.
The musio was exceptionally fine,
and the easter decorations su-
perb. Large congregations filled
the house at both servioes.
The servioes at the First Pres-
byterian ohurohwere appropriate
to the day. The congregation in
the morning filled the auditorium
and gave olose attention to the
service. The musio consisted of
an anthem "Christ our Passover
is Sacrificed for us" and a
saprano solo by Mrs. R. A. Ran-
dall. Mr. H. Gilmore sang the
bass solos. The musio both in
the morning and at night was
well renaered and muoh enjoyed.
The sermons were direoted to-
ward the resurreotion truths, and
were well received.
Services at Grace Presbyterian
ohurch were well attended. The
theme of Mr. Oakleys disoouree
was on the ressurreotion giving
many beautiful thoughts of the
day. Special music was rendered
for the ocoasion, inoluding a
quartette by Misses Flaniken,
Mary Flaniken, Barnett and
Downing.
The services at the Fir9t Meth-
odist church were of unusual in-
terest and the ' large auditorium
was well filled to hear Rev. M.
K. Little deliver an imprep&ive,
thoughtful and inspiring sermon
on "The Resurreotion—Its Re-
sults and Influence Upon the
World " The ohurch was beau
tifully decorated for the oocasion
with out flowers and pot plants,
A special choir rendered an Eas-
ter program that was most ap-
propriate and well received.
The First Baptist church was
well filled. The pastdr, Rev. J.
P. Boone, selected the oocasion
for the reading of the church'
covenant, and some well seleoted
remarks on the oovenant. Mrs.
Boone rendered an appropriate
solo.
The services at the Central
Christian ohurohwere of espeoial
interest. Dr. Addison Clark of
Thorp Springs, delivered two
very fine sermons. The subject
for the morning service was
"Risen with Christ." The sub-
ject in the evening, "The Great
Demonstration." Both addresses
pertained to the theme of the day
and were well delivered and as
happily reoeived.

Investigate into the causes of suc-
cess in others; Look into the rea-
sons why they go ahead while oth-
ers stand still. You will find it is
because they know things worth
knowing.
The Roberts Business College
teaches just such things. It
makes your services worth dollars
where they now command oents.
Ambition to succeed is futile with-
out knowledge. You can acquire
knowledge by day if you like, by
night if you must.

Funeral H. H. Dick.
H. H. Diok who died at Saint
Joseph's infirmary in Fort Worth,
Friday, Maroh 29, at3:30o'olook,
a.m., was buried here Saturday
morning at 10:30 o'olook, funeral
services being held at the grave
in the city cemetery. The body
of the young man arrived on the
10:05 train from Fort Worth, and
taken of charge by the Masonic
lodge, of which order deoeased
was a member. Beside the ritual
of the Masonic order, funeral
servioes were conducted by Rev.
J. P. Boone of the First Baptist
ohuroh. On Easter Sunday, just
one year ago, Mr. Diok connect-
ed himself with the Baptist faith,
joining a ohuroh in Fort Worth.
Harvey H. Diok was born in
Franklin, Kentucky, August 28,
1872, moving to Texas with his
father's family when quite a boy,
and was praotically reared at Mil-
sap, where for a number of years
Mr. Dick was the junior member
in the firm of I4. H. Dick & Son.
Sinoe 1904, Mt. Diok has made
his home in Fort Worth, being
connected with the government
postal service there.
Mr. Diok was operated on for
appendicitis the 24th of February.
His condition did not improve
according to the expectations of
the surgeons in oharge and an-
other operation was made some
ten days ago. He seemed at first
to rally nioely from this but blood
poisoning later set up, whioh
caused his death. Mr. Diok is
survived by his father and mother
Mr. and Mrs. P. H, Diok of Mil-
sap, a brother N. E. Diok of
Nashville, Tennessee, and a
sister Mrs. J.R. Brown of Merkel.
Dr. Diok was with his brother
until after the second operation
when his condition was thought
to be suoh as to allow his brother
to return to his duties inNashville.
Many beautiful floral offerings
oovered the grave of the young
man, one espeoially beautiful
peioe was an exquisite wreath of
Marohiel Neil roses and ferns
sent by the post office employees
of the Fort Worth office.

Sixty years ago Allcock's Plas-

publio. They are to-day the
world's standard plasters.
This invention has been one of
the greatest blessings imaginable
and affords the quiokest, cheap-
est and best means of healing
and relief for certain ailments,
that has ever been discovered.
Allcook's are the original and
genuine porous plasters and are
sold by druggists in every part
of the oivilized world.
Dinner Success.
The ladies of the First Baptist
churoh enjoyed a very large!

Blue Goose Gin
To the ootton raisers of Parker
County—Greeting:
I bought the blue Goose Gin on
Fort Worth street of W. A. Cbew
in Maroh, 1906, and had some
oiroulars struok, telling the peo-
ple that the maohinery would be
put in first class oondition, ask-
ing a liberal share of their pat-
age on these terms, and the gin-
ning of 3955 bales the first year
oauses me to feel that the Blue
Goose got her portion of the oot-
ton that was ginned in Weather-
ford last season.
Words fail me in an attempt to
express my thanks to those who
patronized me in any way, let
that be great or small. ^There is no
plaoe in my heart to harbor an
unkind feeling toward the cus-
tomers of the other two gins, for
I oould not gin all the ootton and
did not expect to when Ij¿oame
here.
There were something over 600
names on my books last year
and it is to be hoped that all of
these and many more will be
;here this coming season, as we
will be muoh better prepared to
do your ginning than we were
ast year, for I have purchased a
new boiler and four new gin
stands, making 12 stands with a
oapacity of 100 bales in daylight.
Work will begin at once to en-
arge the building in order to
have róom for the new machin-
ery that will be here by the mid-
dle of May. When this is in-
stalled, three men's cotton will
be ginned at the same time,
thereby doing away with the ne-
cessity of loosing so much time
waiting for your turn.
With 12 stands and two boilers,
it will not be likely that there
will ever be a time when they will
all be disabled, as the boilers will
be so arranged as to work togeth-
er or either of them alone.
Nothing will be left off that will
add to the oonvenienoe of those
that have their ootton ginntd at
the Blue Goose gin. You will
never have to feed the suotion
while your ootton is being ginned,
I always keep a suotion man for
eaoh suction. You bring us the
ootton and we will do the rest.
I expeot to retain as many of
the old hands as possible. Geo.
P. Anerson, a ginner of 16 years
experience, will remain with me
as my prinoiple ginner. I hope
to have the same engineer, Tom
Pearoey, but have made no trade
with him yet. Norman H. Mar
tin, the man who managed the
gin for Mr. Chew for two years
and did my weighing and book
keeping for me last year.
I will grind every Saturday
during the year.
Thanking you'in advanoe for a
portion of your patronage, I am,
Yours respeotfully,
R. L. (Bud) Hobbs.
