Now since France has been safely
disposed of, there seems some little
delay ln bringing England down, on
account of the Islea being across a
muddy pond from Germany, For a
world that hud got used to receiving
a new thrill every day, there may
be a slight Impatience on account of
the delay ln busting out England. But
we feci sure Hitler will get around
to It as soon os possible, and when
he starts In on this country there
ought to be a new thrill every day.

But back to "Let’s go," we might
cite the Republican convention, This
column has remarked that most con-
ventions are the baloney, but they
finally got around to some real ac-
tion at Philadelphia. At any rate,

A rorf of funny thing Is happening
on this Fourth of July. We nre cele-
brating the securing of our Independ-
ence from Great Britain In 1770, and
now the mother country Is the only
thing standing In the way of Adolf
Hitler slapping us right in the focc.
Good old England!

Nevertheless, the Fourth of July
ought to be celebrated, and our pu
trlotlsm ought, to ooze out from every
pore in fact, this country may have
slipped back a good deal from the
days when we heard patriotic talks
by the hour under u brush arbor,
and drank gallons of soda pop in
between. What do wo do now on
the Fourth of July? Nothing.
zzzzzz
Nothing except get out on the
highway and go like a hot out o'
hell, And some of us killed. Maybe
we -would be safe ln saying that more
people have been killed In this coun-
try In celebrating the Fourth of July
than lost their lives on the field of
battle ln the Revolutionary War.

All of this brings up the subject
again about whether or not there will
be bridge parties In heaven. In fact,
folks do a good many things here
that will be tabooed In that other
and better world, and it may make
it a lonesome place for some.

Take the trader, now. After a
few days vacation he might want to
get back to business, and there would
not be any cattle or things he could
trade on, except maybe the harps
which they tell us will be in heaven.
Chances are that he might want to
dispose of his own in a few days,
after a few unsuccessful attemps to
get a harmonious squeak out of it.

Rodeo Grounds in
Fine Condition as
Result of Project
Those who attend the 1940 Seymour
Reunion and Rodeo will see one of
the finest rodeo plants of Its size
anywhere In the nation, The rodeo
grounds nnd stands, already regarded
as umong the best anywhere, have
been greatly Improved nnd beautified
a.s a result of work done through a
WT’A project.
The first improvement Is noted on
tho road to the grounds, which are
located east of Seymour. The roads
have been Improved, drained and In
some places fenced with rock, to
make the route to the rodeo a far
smoother one than ever before.
On reaching (he grounds tho visitor
will first see a handsome rock fence,
seven feet high, which extends from
the contestants’ entrance on the south
clear across the west side and almost
to the north pens. This Is one of the
most beautiful rock fences In this
part of the country, nnd will add a
great deal to the appearance of the
place as well as preventing gate crash-
ing,
In the center a rock ticket house
has bpen built, with four windows,
which will be able to take care of
the customers at a rapid rate. On
north, Inside the grounds, two rock
toilet-houses have been built, which
will be a great convenience.
Now being finished Is a house for
concessions, large and well-built, also
on the north sirfe- of the grandstand.
The grandstand Itself has been en-
larged with the addition of 40 feet
on the south and 20 feet on the north,
increasing the seating capacity by
some 1,000, All stairs leading into
the stand have been done away with
and concrete ramps put In their plac-
es, which make it much easier to
get Into the stands, as well as faster.
There is a ramp on each end, and
two in the center, one leading to the
back and the other to the front.
The bleacher seats on the east side
of the field have been repaired and
centered, so that they will be better
placed than ever before to give a
good view of the show. Fences on
tho Inside have been rearranged for
more convenience and safety.
The crowning glory of the place
Is the turf arena. This was plowed
up and re-sodded this year, and it
now presents a level, unbroken sea
of heavy Bermuda turf to the spec-
tator. The grass has been watered
extensively, and is a beautiful sight.
It will assure the spectator of a
dustles* rodeo, which is one of the
most important considerations.
Everything possible for the com-
fort and convenience of the specta-
tors hag been taken care of, and
it will be worth the price of admis-
sion to sec the grounds.
Goal Nears in Red
Cross War Drive
TEN PAGKH THIS WEEK
Two Oil Tests Are
Scheduled To Be

The Baylor county quota for the

viously reported of $454.28. brought

a previous contribution has been
made or not. The chapter is very’American field 10

New Officers Take
Over Lions Club
Officers of the Seymour Lions club
for the next twelve months were in-
stalled at a meeting of the organiza-
tion Tuesday evening at the Seymour
park, with ladies of the Lions being
invited to participate.
Dr. R. K. Lowry was Installed as
president by Zone Chairman Rev. C.
E. Cogswell of Knox City, who was
installing officer for the evening. Oth-
ers inducted into office were: T. E.
Craddock, vice president; Elmo Hoo-
ser, secretary; Cedric Harrison, trea-
surer; Dr. J. W. Foy, tail twister;
Coleman Powell, Lion tamer; H. L.

Republicans Name
Willkie and McNary
The Republican national conven-
tion at Philadelphia last week proved
to be an epochal event, with things
happening fast, and not always just
as had been planned by the leaders.
The biggest thing that happened, of
course, was the nomination for the
presidency of Wendell L. Wilkie of
New York, who is president of the
Commonwealth and Southern power
corporation. Wilkie had come to the
convention with few instructed votes
and his nomination was a great vic-
tory for the rank and file of the
party as against the acknowledged
heads. Robert A, Taft and Thomas
E. Dewey started in the lead, but
as the balloting progressed Wilkie
gained more and more, until by the
sixth ballot he had a clear majority
of more than 500 votes. Then with
an enthusiastic finish the nomination
was made unanimous, and even the
defeated candidates have promised
the nominee their warm support.
As a fine running mate Charles
McNary of Oregon was placed In
nomination for the vice presidency.
