THE WEATHER
This Week
Friday and Saturday should be two
days of intense stormy weather be-
cause of the Moon’s close approach
to the Earth and the New node, in
connection with the fact that this is
a regular storm period center. We
should have lots of lightning, wind,
rain and hail, and if it misses us we
are extremely fortunate. Hot winds
next week will be followed by ugly
clouds from the south and hail with
rain is probable. Earthquakes Frid-

W. C. Sherley
Killed Saturday
Saturday night W. B. Fletcher re-
ceived a message from west Texas
stating that W. C. Sherley, who is a
brother of Mrs. Fletcher, had receiv-
ed burns from an explosion of gaso-
line at 5:30 that evening from which
he was not expected to recover. The
next morning a second message stat-
ed that Mr. Sherley had passed away
at five thirty Sunday morning.
The awful accident occured at the
town of Wink, in the Winkler county
oil fields. Mr. Sherley with his fam-
ily had been living there where he
had been doing construction work for
an oil company; He was not far from I on the building"
a 55,000-barrel tank when it was hit
by lightning, the tank exploding and
doing great damage aside from caus-
ing the severe burns from which Mr.
Sherley died.
Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher left Sunday
night for Gatesville, where her par-
ents live and her brother had spent
most of his life. The remains were
sent to that place where burial took
place Tuesday morning.
Some years ago Mr. Sherley had
lived in Frisco, also at Farmersville,
and he will be remembered by a good
many of our citizens. He leaves
wife and eight children, some of
whom are married, only the three
youngest now living with their moth-
er.
Death is sad even when it comes
in peaceful form and has been looked
for, but it is doubly so when it comes
as a crash from a clear sky. The
sympathy of tikis community goes out
to the bereaved family of this good
man, wK- are now !eft without his
protecting care.
Fire Destroys the
W. B. Earlv Home
The home on the W. B. Early home
place three miles southeast of Leb-
anon was burned to the ground about
three o’clock Saturday morning, the
cause of the blaze unknown. The
farm is now owned by a Mr. Gooch
of Plano. It is rented to and culti-
vated by Mr. Morgan, who, with his
wife, live there. Mr. and Mrs. Mor-
gan were awakened by the smoke at
three o’clock and barely escaped with
out being able to take anything with
them. It is a sad loss to these ten-
ants as they had no insurance on the
furniture. There was $750 insurance

Superintendent
Mr. J. H. Bankston of Roby, Tex-

of the Frisco schools for next year,
refused to accept the position, having
accepted a position at another place.
Mr. F. L. Carlton of Eastland was
later elected by the school board to
fill the position. Mr. Carlton has
been principal of one of the Eastland
schools for the past six years and
was re-elected to that position again

Here This Week
Monday night we were given a nice
rain amounting to .93 of an inch
which, many farmers said, was exact-
ly what we needed, but no more than
that. There was a little electricity,
no hail and very slight wind.
Tuesday night near midnight ,
other rain from the northwest accom-
panied by a high wind which veered
to the north then northeast, swooped
down, but the precipitation amounted
to very little. After midnight anoth-
er rain set in slowly, giving us a to-
tal of .73 of an inch before day. A

Carrollton Picture Show
Was Closed Last Week
Chronicle: Qur picture show, the
Liberty Theatre, has closed. Mana-
ger Felton stated that their lease had
expired and that a proposed raise in
rental could not be met with present
business and there was nothing to do
under the circumstances but quit.
Carrollton needs an amusement place
it would seem, but they have difficul-
ty in getting along and making it a
paying proposition, according to those
who have tried it out. Perhaps when
we have an oil field we can maintain
a couple of picture shows.
Collin county’s annual gasoline bill
is more than half a million dollars,
with half of the sum spent within the
McKinney territory, according to es-
timates of McKinney dealers famil-
iar with the sale and consumption of
gasoline.
Eight wholesalers of McKinney sup
ply the local territory with approxi-
mately 143,000 gallons of gas per
month- Four other towns in the coun-
ty have wholesale stations—Frisco,
Plano, Wylie and Farmersville, and
it is estimated that the total gallon-
age burned in the county per month
will reach about 300,000, or 3,600,000
gallons per year, costing monthly ap-
proximately $49,500, or $594,000 per
year. According to these figures,
which are believed to be approxi-
mately correct, Collin county automo-

Mrs. Sigler is a sister of Miss Jes-

The average price paid for gasoline
in this county is 16% cents per gal-
lon. There are about forty retailers
in McKinney. Farmersville and Fris-
co service stations get 19c while Wy-
lie and Plano sell for 18c. The small-
er towns where no wholesale stations
are located obtain a similar price.
There are other interesting figures
connected with the wholesaling and
retailing of gasoline. A state tax of
3 cents per gallon is collected. It is
paid by the refinery at the point of
shipment. -
This tax raises many millions of
dollars annually and goes into the
State Highway and School funds. This
tax will be reduced some time this
year to 2 cents.
Most of the gasoline shipped into

Considerable damage to crops, es-
pecially grain, was done by hail over
a strip four miles wide and extend-
ing from just north of Boliver to the
Cooke county line Tuesday evening,
according to County Commissioner
Ben Fritz of Denton, who was in that
section Wednesday.
Hail fell for about 20 minutes just
before dark, and made a clean sweep
of the wheat and oat fields in places.
Some of the hailstones were of the
large size. Not enough grain was left
in some of the fields to warrant cut-
ting-

County Schools to
Close This Week
Nearly all of the schools of Denton

districts, will close this week, accord-

intendent. Three or four schools will
continue through next week and one
or two schools may continue to May
26, these schools being conducted late
because of interruptions during the
regular term.
from other points are somewhat sim-
ilar. A certain credit for gasoline
evaporation or “shrinkage” is allow-
ed by refiners, one-half of one per
cent being allowed by one refiner to
its wholesalers. Credit of one per
cent is allowed for evaporation at
filling stations.
There are approximately ten thous-
and automobiles registered in the en-
tire county and these machines burn
the bulk of the gasoline consumed in
the county. The average cost of the
gasoline consumed per capita for an
estimated population of 60,000 person
is slightly more than $9 for each man,
woman and child in the county.
The figures given above do not take
into account the thousands of gallons
of gas bought out of the county by
automobile owners who find their gas
tanks running low when away from
home on pleasure or business trips.
Less than twenty years ago the
number of automobile owners in Mc-
Kinney could be counted on the fing-
ers of one hand. In July 1910 one
citizen recalled an acquaintance regis-
tered his machine and his number was
less than three figures.

Mr. Carpenter is one of the pion-

within the next few weeks.
For the first time in the history of

and fifteen or twenty cars will be sent
from Farmersville, beginning about
the tenth of June.
Collin county farmers have an ad-

South because of the lower freight

the rate from South Texas points.

With the first or eliminating pri-
mary slightly more than two months
distant, and with precinct and county
conventions past and the issues de
termined as they may apply to Na-
tional candidates, aspirants for dist-
rict, county and precinct offices are
“shelling the woods” so to speak, tak-
ing advantage of every opportunity
to get in touch with and favorably
present their aspirations to the vot-
er#, ■ --
Many of the aspirants for prefer-
ment are making personal campaigns
in various parts of the county, while
many also are depending on their
friends to conduct their campaigns in
their precincts. One will often see a
candidate stop his automobile on the
side of the road and climb through a
fence to reach a farmer voter in the
field and personally solicit his vote
for the office sought. Most of them,
too, will visit homes and canvass the
head of the household, his wife and
sons and daughters if the latter te of
voting age. Neither are the men of
affairs overlooked, for the candidate
will visit the business man, banker,
and professional man in his office to
present his claims.
Little, if any, distinction is being
made by the candidates in their so-
licitation for votes, and they seek out
the women voters as readily as they
do the men. Qualified voters in Col-
lin county this year number 11,021,
not including exemption certificates.
It is estimated that about 75 per cent
of the possible votes will be cast.
Practically all of the candidates
who seek office in the county this
year have already made their an-
nouncement. The latest announce-
ment came from J. G. St. Clair of i
, Pike, who comes before the voters for I
equip- | the office of county clerk.
'C. A. Barker of Sherman also has j
finally decided to become a candidate |
for the office of flotorial representa-
tive from Collin and Grayson coun-
ties. Barker formerly held this office
for several terms. The office became
vacant when B. L. Sherley of Anna,
incumbent, became a candidate for
the congressional nomination. M. E.
O’Neill of Frisco is also a candidate
for floater.
Final date for filing of applications
for place on the primary ballot will
be June 4. The political calendar for
the balance of the campaign period
follows:
June 4, candidates for state and
district offices must file applications
for places on the ticket with the dis-
trict and county chairmen.
June 11, names of candidates for
state offices certified by state execu-
tive committee to county chairmen
and date of state nominating conven-
tion fixed.
June 16, last date for filing for the
official ballot for county and precinct
nominations.
June 18, county executive committee
meets to determine order of names
on ballot, and to estimate cost of elec-
tions on which assessments of.candi-
dates are based.
June 25, last day for payment of
assessment# by candidates.
During June and July all candi-
dates must file expense accounts at
stated Intervals.
July 9, official ballot completed by
committee detailed for tbe work.

be made twenty days and not less than

Golden Text Illustration.
He taught them aa one having au-
thority (Matt. 7:29).
A passenger on a ship which had
been for a number of days storm-
tossed on a dangerous coast, became
filled with fear as the boat was about
to pass a rocky point. He feared to
go to his stateroom lest the sailors,
through weariness, should fail of their
duty and the ship should be wrecked.
He went to the captain and expressed
his fear. “You need have no fear,”
the captain replied, “I myself shall
stand at the helm.”
Had we to depend upon the state-
ments of men, we might well ap-
proach the future in fear and trem-
bling, but there is perfect peace for
that soul who has found Christ as
his personal Saviour, for he knows
that there stands at the helm, One
whose word is true.
