Don Anderson, brother of the

also took them to Delta Inc.
where they acquired various
types of *eed to take back to
South America.
"Skeet" Anderson and Doi.
gave the visitors western shirts
ties and cowboy hats. In return.
Maria and Ana presented Miss
Anderson with some jewelry.
The girls thought Don looked
like some Hollywood star and.
to his embarrassment, told him
SO.
"They like our cowboy country
out here." says Mary. "We Just
wish we could keep them long-
er."
The Brazilian Scouts have been
visiting In the U. S. since July
1 on a trip paid for by Juliet Lots
friendship fund. They visited In
Ohio and Lubbock before coming
to Crosby.
"The thing that impresses me
mosi." jokes Maria, "is that even
the little children speak English
so well "
The girls say there are a few
differences between scouting In
Brazil and the States. For one,
camps are all "prirnatlves" and
established at different places
each time Girls camp by troops
rather than age groups, mixing
girls 10 to 18 years of age.
School too is different. Stu-
dents study from March until
July and from August until
December In Brar'l. They hofeu

aged to arrest the Ralls resi
dent twice within a 15 min
ute period for the same of
fense—driving without a li-

with a second ticket. All of

With the passing of Robert
Stanley Marion Carter, anothei
link with Crosby county's ear

and Crosbyton.
He had personally known such
early day figures as coloniser
I'aris Cox. editor John W. Mur-
ray, sheriff Felix Franklin, pion

Stanley Carter was bom in

A dosen or more horses are

"We are very happy to get

to acquire same horses for some

In order V accept ths horses,

haven't been In trouble, but h
anything should happen the

Strangely, Crosbyton Is only
one of the four member towns
of White River Water Diatrict
that has not had some sort o,
wster rationing in the past two
or three weeks. Post and Spur
have serious water shortages,
while Ralls has had to cut wa
ter two or three times due to
well trouhie and low pressure.
"We hope to get by without
any rationing here," Dsvis said,
"but any kind of trouble would
put us on a spot."
Crosbyton wells produce
maximum of only 600 gallons
per minute, the superintendent
said. At the peak each day, be
tween 800 and 1200 gallons are
being boosted to the overheao
tank, he said. By pumping al>

McAdoo School
Budget To Be Aired
There will be a public hearing j
of the McAdoo Independent j
School district's budget for the |
1963 64 school year August 20 at1
the McAJoo hign school.
The meeting will start at S o'
-lock and the public is invited. '
Members of ihc school boaru
ire: Karl Van Meter, president;
Kllis Power secretary. W R. Mc- l
Williams, H F. Harris, Marvin j
Tidwell, G. E. Hardin, and Wel-
Jon Cvpert. The su[)erintendent j
is Henry Teague.
In effect, the justices refused
the Walker writ of error. Earlier,
court of appeals had ruled dis-
trict court had no authority in
the case, thus nullifying a deci-
sion by Judge Victor Lindsey.
Walker attorneys now have a
given length of time in which to
file a motion for a rehearing.
Meanwhile, on another front,
Walker attorneys have pending
in Crosby county court an appeal
from the award ot the condem-
nation commission which made
original decision on the land.
Morgan Jones and Humble OH
Company have also appealed
another recent decision by the
condemnation commission.
White River board has plenty
of legal business to occupy them
Meanwhile, a number of Cros-
byton residents have inquired
why they are not allowed to fish
in the lake
The answer is there are no
fish in it. Workmen recently poi
soned th.> fish ir. the rising re-
servoir because so many rough
fish had been observed in the
water.
Charles Hudman and Glenn
Barley have been flashing a pic-
ture of the latter with a huge
bass. They say this fish is thu
first caught in the lake, but evi-
dence does not seem to confirm
their claim.
Others want to know why no
boating is allowed at the reser
voir This is chiefly a safetv
measure. There is little water in
the lake as yet and submerged
objects might sink a boat.
Construction workers had the
gap in the dam built up to esti-
mated water level last week.
Then they stopped to riprap and
otherwise consolidate their work.
Music Students

LADS LIKE
ROUGH LIFE
By PAT BENNETT
Have you noticed the interna- j lines by
tional touch they've grafted on-
to TV westerns lately? After the
commercial you see a typical
western town in the eye of the
idiot box. Then some foreigner
strolls onstage. Offhand 1 can
recall a Prussian junker, Chin
ese warlord, demented French
poet, Japanese samurai and an
Irish drunk withirl recent
months. These furrin folk insist
on wearing their quaint cos-
tumes arpid the sagebrush and
gunslingers. Even granting tha.
the stories are set before the
McCarren Immigration Act, the
reason for this sudden flood of
outlanders into Zane Grey land
is not at all clear. I've been
mulling over the problem on
long hot afternoons. What brings
these intruders into the land of
rancher's daughters, guitar
chukers and saloon keepers7
When I was a nipper, nothing
more peculiar than &n occasion
al nester or sheepherder ~Wer
invaded those domains. There
seems no logical explanation.
But when one of these nonde-
scripts appears, us western pur
ists find ourselves switching to
the quiz program on the next
channel. It Just ain't right.
• ☆ -it ☆
Mrs. Mack Ellison says she
was reared on the following
an anonymous versi-
lines
fier:
I have to live v. ith myself,
and so
I want to be fit for myself
to know
I want to bo able, as days
go b>.
Always to look myself straight
in the eye.
I don't want to stand at
setting of sun
And hate myself for the
things I've done.
I can never hide myself
from me;
1 see what others may
never see.
I know what others may nevet
know;
I never cah fool myself,
and so
Whatever happens, I want
to be
Self respecting and conscience
free.
That is indeed good advice for
an honest man. However, I know
some people who manage to ex-
cuse themselves for whatever In-
dulgence or chlchanery they've
committed. Being honest with
oneself Is very difficult but,
once accomplished. It is tha
first step in being honest with
others.
