VOLUME 68, NUMBER 7
WEST, TEXAS FRIDAY, JUNE 20, 1958

of Cattle Ticks and Politics
By DORIS HENDERSON
Two weeks ago when the chil-
dren and I left town shortly
after lunch we were headed for
Big D to pick up friend husband
— we are always friends when
we begin our Colorado vacations,
and our friendship usually
lasts until we begin decending
our first Colorado “Hill”. By
the time we have gone down
half of that almost vertical hill
n’t think of any other reason
for a sailor to be sitting in the
middle of the desert.
Just before dawn, and just
before we ran out of gasoline, we
reached the bright lights of a
service station at Cline Corners,
New Mexico. Cline Corners con-
sisted of a service station that
was open and a restaurant that
was not. The lights seemed to be
and I have left fingerprints on very bright for they were the
the door, ceiling and floor-
board of the car, and as I start
turning green while he insists
he can’t go less than ten miles
per hour down-shill — then we
are no longer friends — no
more so than those Colorado
“Hills” are hills.
But as we drove toward Dallas
the announcer on the radio
kept us posted on the progress
of the temperature, and it was
progressing upward rapidly. It
started with 100, by the time we
reached! Waxahachie — where
it "droped” on us, as Joey said,
there wasn’t enough water in-
volved to say it actually sprink-
led,' the mercury had climbed to
102. In Dallas it was 105, and
as we drove out of Fort Worth
at j| in' the afternoon, the an-
nouncer said it was 108 in the
downtown area. I think he was
right.
Between Jacksboro and Olny,
Texas, just at dusk, we noticed
hundred's of doves along the
roadside. We made a note to tell
our hunter friends back home
about this paradise, for never
had we seen so many doves. We
drove for several miles before
we realized why half the doves
in the state had flocked to this
area, and then we noticed that
the road and ditches were cov-
ered with a fine layer of wheat
that had blown out of the trucks
that were hauling it to town.
The doves were literally having
a picnic.
A little more than 12 hours
after we had left West we fin-
ally reached New Mexico. For
several hours our headlights did
not1 show us much of interest,
except a couple of signs one say-
ing “Field” and the other
“House” and both surrounded
by a‘ whole lot of nothing. About
the only life we saw was a gath-
ering of jack rabbits, and they
were evidently as startled to
see us as we were them, for they
were all sitting on their
haunches with forepaws crossed
staring at us as we drove by.
Around 4 in the morning,
right out in the middle of the
desert we passed a sailor sitting
on his suitcase. We decided this
was the man who upon retiring
from the Navy had informed
his shipir>ates, that he was tak-
ing an oar, and he was going to
hitch-hike inland until he
reached a spot that the natives
askedl him “What’s that for?”
and that was where he was go-
ing to settle. At least we could-
only ones we had seen for a
hundred miles, and It was then
that it occurred to me that I
should not have packed all our
coats and sweaters in the bot-
tom of the suitcases, for the
children and I were shivering in
the 50 degree temperature.
We gave up the idea of having
breakfast in Santa Fe, for we
didn’t seem to find anyplace
open, and also decided -it night
not be a good dea to call on the
governor at that hour even tho
he was grandfather’s sister-in-
laws’ son or grandson, or some
such close relative of ours.
Before 8 in the morning and
about 925 miles from West we
encountered our first “Hills"
and crosed the Continental
Divide the first of several cross-
ings we made while in Colorado.
About the same time we ran into
rain and road! conditions,’ and
naturally we followed a big,
slipping, sliding trailer truck
through the mud.
By 10 we had driven 1008 miles
and had found my brother’s
home in Durango, Colorado. I
do recall nodding to them as I
passed them on my way to the
first bed I saw, and after a
two or three hour nap, I got up
and told them just how glad I
was to see them. We were de-
lighted to find that our 5-year-
old niece, Karla Rae, had not
only withstood the cold winter,
but that she had actually thriv-
ed while romping in the snow.
She had grown a bushel and a
peck since we saw her last
Christmas, and her cheeks look-
ed like the big strawberries she
ate several times a day while
we were there.
That afternoon we all took
sweaters when we drove up into
the mountains to a company
picnic that was held! on the
banks of one of those rushing,
gushing Colorado rivers. Several
of the boys were fishing, and
they caught some pretty trout.
They were much more success-
ful than the rest of the men and
boys that tried to fish the base-
ball out of he river, just a few
minutes after the game started
and ended.
By night we were ready for
bed, but not before we had
visited the famous “Golden
Belle.” The hotel and bar had
just been redecorated in the
style of the gold-rush days with
wallpaper embossed with red-
plush, red velvet drapes, gilt
lion heads holding the ornate

IIL' ICICLE, EH,?MWELL IM GETTING- j
(YOU KNOW, SOPHIE BOUGHT©* A REFRIGERATOR,
U “SO-IN-SO" MACHINEJgf TOO, BUT I'M GOING
FROM THAT rr'rmz-zasi TO buy right here in
chandliers, and a magnificent
old hand-carved bar. The wait-
resses wore can-can costumes,
and the piano player completed
the picture with his handle-bar
mustache, derby hat, and shirt
sleeves with gaiters or garters
of whatever they were called.
Perhaps the most outstanding
thing in this splendid edifice
was the motto painted in big
gold, gothic letters on the wall,
expressing a, complete philoso-
phy of life, it read: “Work is
rhe curse of the drinking class!”
That is enough of this for
now. I will have to tell you about
the rest of our trip next week
—else, what else would I have
to write about?
JA Disagrees with Idea of
Returning Gov’t to People
Editor’s note: The Philosopher
on his Johnson grass farm on
Aquilla Creek has an odd idea
this week, which is not unsual
with him.
Dear editar:
I was listening to the radio the
other night — I don’t listen to
it very much on account of it
doesn’t leave enough time to
thiqk, by the time somebody has
said something and you settle
back to think it over he’s off on
something else, I prefer a news-
paper, where you can read a
paragraph, think it over, sleep
on it awhile, get up and walk
around, and still come back to
the same place — at any rate I
was listening to a Congressman,
I don’t even know what state he
was from, and he said something
that suddenly made me come
alert.
What he said was: “It’s time
we returned the government to
the people.”
Now I have heard this state-
ment lots of times before, but
somehow or other it stuck in
my mind this time and I’ve been
thinking it over for a couple of
days and have come to the con-
clusion that as far as I’m con-
cerned I’m not sure I want the
government back. Not at this
time.
That is, I guess if I was run-
ning the government and it was
in the financial shape it is, I
would be looking around for
somebody to unload it on too,
but with my present financial
strain I don’t see how I can take
it on.
Understand, I think the gov-
ernment’s sound ail right, it still
owns more than it owes and it
has an awfully steady income,
and I think it will eventually pay
out, but it is the longest-term
investment I ever heard about,
and some of its stockholders are
the hardest people on earth to
please.
Nope, I don’t believe it’s the
right time to return the govern-
ment to the people. We’re sad-
dled with so many other debts
and burdens I just don’t be-
lieve we’re in shape to take on
anything else right now. A man
can get too far out on the limb.
I’ll appreciate it if you’ll tell
that Congressman and any oth-
er government officials who
have come around to the con-
clusion it is time they gave the
government back to the people
that I decline the honor. They
are stuck with it and will have
to work it out the best way they
can.
In fact, the more I think
about it the madder I get. That’s
a shoddy trick, waiting till the
government is in the shape
Is and then trying to give
back to us.
Yours faithfully,
J. A.

1.20 Inch Rain
Monday Revives
Wilted Crops
West received 1.20 inches of
rain on Monday and early Tues-
day, June 16 and 17, weather-
man A. J. Weinberger reports.
The rain did much to revive the
shrivied corn and feed crops in
the vicinity.
Folks in the Tokio community
and just a couple miles south of
town reported rainfall totaling
as much as 4 inches, while a few
miles north the rain totaled
only half an inch.
Farmers were hoping they
could1 get another rain this week
equal to the one in West, as
moisture has been much too
scarce this month.
Since May 28, when West re-
ceived half an inch of rain,
there has been only one other ■
trace of rain on June 8-9 that
measured .15. The total rainfall
for June is 1.35, and for the year
16.46 inches, or about an inch
less than average.
At this time last year our
rainy season had just ended
with a flooding 36.96 inches of
rain during the first six months
but in 1956 West had only 12.21
inches of rain during the first
half of the year and 7.53 during
the last half.
