with a rat one night last week which

Mother’s Day is Gone
* (Written by Hallie Dunafan)
Here coves the month of flowers.
The beautiful month of May;
And its breesy bowers Nature
whispers—
For Mother’s Day is gone.
The flowers lift their dainty faces
The sun throws forth its silvery ray,
And Nature trims her home with
filmy laces—
For Mother’s Day is gone.
How sweet that smile of love
That radiates from her glorious eye,
Which God so tender has sent from
above
To remember in the sweet by and by.
No one knows what a friend she is
to me,
As 1 go about life's duty;
And I’m sure there'll never be,
For in my life she is one beauty.
And when mother is laid to rest
And in the grave she lies,
We shall always remember that she
was the best,
And remember her radiant smiling
eyes.
ner with an unsuccessful battle with
the bead of the house, who weildad a
broom. How the rat succeeded in
getting into the bed is not known.
The night before the same rat was In
the house and jumped through the
screen wire when he was attacked. It
is thought he re-entered the house
through the wire which it had broken
in its exit. Earl said that it was the
biggest rat he had ever seen, and that
it fought fiercely against all of them
before they killed it.

The heavy storms of rain, wind and
hail which this writer was supposed
to have missed for last week did hit
in West Texas, where there was con-
siderable damage to property and to
the crops, while the rain was very
beneficial to the cotton. It just didn’t
come this far.

were very threatening, giving prom-
ise of showers both days, and little
gusts of wind Saturday afternoon,
with thunderheads sticking around in
almost every direction, made all of
ns think that we were in for a rain
of some consequence. The tempera-
ture did not go so high Saturday, reg-
istering only 86, while Friday it went
to 89. Sunday was very pleasant, al-
though it was cloudy all day.
The Frisco Journal is the only pa
per in Collin or Denton counties giv-
en two of the highest honors award-
ed by the Texas Press Association.
The town of Frisco received several
thousand dollars worth of free adver-
tising from this one stunt. The com-
mittee gave special mention of this
paper in its report—something that
no committee had ever done in all of
the forty-five years existence of the
Texas Press Association! In this,
and in other ways, The Journal has
attracted the notice of many people,
advertising the town and country far
and wide, and it did not cost any man
in Frisco-one penny. An institution
that does that should receive the un-
stinted support of every business in
that town; the small businesses as
well as the larger ones, for without
■uch support this nor any other paper
can continue placing the town before
the nation as this paper has done, for
every daily paper that uses Associat-
ed Press service carried a one-column
article about Frisco,
