Mexico Celebrated 22nd,
Willie Keuper, J. W. Schwartz,
Gas C. Ruhmann, Henry J.
Schaefer and the editor, E. A.
Bosl, left last Saturday night for
Mexico to attend the annual
George Washington celebration
held tbere.
We drove all night long arriv-
ing there at 7 o'clock the follow-
ing morning. After a hurried
breakfast we had to sample the
beverages for our southern
neighbor, they are mary and the
strength thereof is unknown, as
we saw some good men go down
trying to find out. People from
all over south Texas .were there
by the Tens of Thousands.
The main event of the day was
the big bull fight, which proved
to be as every American writer
has always written, just a lot of
bunk. The bulls were so wild
and bad, that instead of fighting
they jumped over the fence and
tried to runaway from the men
with their big red banners and
things which they shook in his
face. The main point as we saw
it was to spill blood, this would
mike the Mexicans happy and
they would cheer loudly, one
poor horse, so poor it could hard
y walk, was placed in the path
>f the bull to let the bull stick
his horn into it's breast, gushes
of blood poured from the horse
where it was gored. This
pieased them greatly. But to
the American people who love
spor*. it was a disgrace, and
m^de most of them say that they
really hoped the bull would kill a
Mexican. After the bull was
driven back into the arena aftsr
having jumped the fence several
times trying to get away, it was
killed, a m.m with a big heavy
sword stabs him to death, the
bull is so worn out from running
that it can hardly move but
when stabbed shouts go up from
all and the bull is pulled from
the field and number two comes
in, number two was so gentle
that shouts of protest from the
Americans caused them to take
him cut of the ring and the next
one brought in, then the same
thing over. We got up and got
out. Beer was sold during the
fight by boys, as we sell soda
water at our base ball games.
A very striking thing was the
gaity of the people there, every-
one came to have a good time,
95 per cent of the m?n were
drunk and about 75 per cent of
the women, yes both American
and Mexican women attending
the fight. Some pretty girls
had to be held up and virtually
carried, others stumbling and
wabbling. Half of the women
present had their own cigarettes
which they smoked just as well
as any man. We are speaking
of American folks. Ic would
have been a very disgraceful
affair in this country but then
they were in Mexico to celebrate
and they did.
Another thing that caught our
eye was the menu in Mexico for
instance one sign at a restaurant
rerd, fine quail, venison and etc.,
things money cannot buy hi a
cafe in this country.
All Ages Have Suffered
How often do we hear old people say
that the world is less healthy now than
It was In their "young days," when
most of the diseases which our doctors
are fighting seemed to be quite un-
known.
These aged pessimists will get rather
a shock as the result of discoveries
which have just been made at Solutre,
near Macon, London Tit-Bits says.
Fifteen skeletons, some of them fif-
teen to twenty thousand years old,
have been found, and many of these
show that our modern maladies are by
no means so new as our grandfathers
imagine. Primitive man, for instance,
seems to have suffered just as much
from rheumatism, tuberculosis and den-
tal troubles as do his descendants.

Come in—see what Studebaker
offers in this Sedan at $1545
NEW beauty—new lines
— new performance,
and now —- new value; these
are some of the things the
new Studebaker Standard
Six Sedan offers at its new
reduced price.
It is a fact that this Sedan
will out-perform any car sell-
ing within hundreds of dol-
lars of its price.
No car possesses greater
beauty or is more luxuri-
ously comfortable. No car is
more enjoyable to drive or
is easier to steer.
Comparison with other
cars selling for more — or
less—will provide convincing
proof of its greater dollar-
for-dollar value, its better per-
formance, surplus power, un-
usual readability, and many
other desirable features.
No matter how much money
you expect to invest in a car,
by all means see the Standard
Six Sedan, ride in it—drive it
yourself. It is then that you
will realize the difference.
The price of this Sedan is
low, simply because of Stude-
baker's large production, vast
physical and financial resour-
ces, and because it is manu-
factured complete—body and
chassis—in Studebaker plants,
Its new reduced price —
$1545—has entirely revised all
study this
combination
of features;
Full-sized balloon tires, for
which steering mechanism,
body lines and even the
fenders were especially de-
signed. Automatic spark
control. Lights controlled
from switch on steering
wheel. Upholstered in gen-
uine mohair. Natural wood
wheels. Rear-corner lights.
One-piece windshield, auto-
matic windshield cleaner,
rear-view mirror. Heater.
Instruments, including
clock and gasoline gauge,
in single grouping,
standards of closed car values.

Death expenses is something not
figured ordinarily. Most men have
$ 1000 worth of Insurance which
they figure on leaving theii family,
but this is mostly used for their own
funeral expenses, doctor and drug
bills, etc. There is very little left
for the family. Get mpre Insurance
today as hundreds here are doing.
I have personally written more than
$ 1,000,000 worth here in Schulen-
burg. Don't buy any kind of Insur-
ance, get the best, and be sure your
family gets the same.
