Monday, Jan. 27, is the big day
for the picture taking of your
youngs'crt! The Herald is having
pictures taken of all children who
are brought by their parents or
other guardian to the Moore Hotel
between 10 a. m. and 5 p. m. ab-
solucly free of charge.
The Herald wants a picture of
your child to print in its forth-
coming feature, "Citizens of To-
morrow". a series of photographic
studies of local children. The more
we get the better the feature wilt
be so the cooperation of the
mothers and fathers is urged.
It often seems to parents that
children are little one minute and
are grown up the next, so fast
does a child's growing' stage pass.
Here is a splendid opportunity to
catch a likeness of your child or
children .,t the present stage for ! )23S
the pleasure you wilt get out of it j 5HS
in future years and for the pleas- SHC
urc you will enjoy in seeing it in *
print. Y< u wit! want to clip it from
this, your home town newspaper
,d;cl preserve it for the youngstcr
when he or she grows up.
There is absolutely no charge
or obligation for taking the pic-
tures. Parents don't even have to
be a subscriber to the Herald nor
even a reader. You do not have t<
purchase pictures cither, though
you may obtain additional prints
by arranging direct with the Stu-
dio representative if you want
them. That is entirely up to you!
Appointments may be made by
calling Mrs. J. R. Mcrriwethcr,
phone 114. Alto, Texas.

Stockmen Cautioned
On Feeding
Moldy Grain
College Station. — Many areas
of Texas received heavy rains
during the harvest season last
fait. As a result, there is increased
danger of mold in feed grains with
possible serious illness or death
of lives <ck. warns C. M. Patter-
son. tx'ensioti veterinarian.
While all moldy feed is not nec-
esarily poisonous, Patterson says
that farmers will be wise to de-
termine whether they can safely
n;\c meh feed to their animals,
i He suggests testing questionable
tain for about two weeks by
' ;:;ving it to one or two test ani-
mals of low value.
