Supt. W. L. Russell attend-
ed a meeting of superintend-
ents and coaches of high
schools held at Yorktown Sat-
urday at which time matters
of interest pertaining to athle-
tic activities were discussed.
The following towns in the

Runge, Kenedy, Nordheim,
Karnes City, Goliad, Victoria,
Edna, Ganado, Cuero, Yoa-

Mr. and Mrs. Reichman

buying purposes when they

We have very poor opinion
of a man who will live in a
town county or state and
knock it. We heard a man
knocking his town the other
day; he was riding around in
a nice new auto, has a nice
home to live in, and several
years ago when he landedl
here to our certain knowledge
he was flat broke; now he is
in good circumstances—has a
nice substantial business. And
yet we heard him say that
a man was a fool and he was
a fool for stopping here. Well
we could not help from hand-
ing him one, in this wise; Why
in the devil don’t you move?
Why do you stay here and
knock the town that has gi-
ven you a good living, per-
mitting you to accumulate a
competence to live on? Now
we let our mind ran back down
the years and in doing so we
got a line-up on this fellow,
and to our certain knowledge
we had never seen him at
a public meeting never saw
him in a mass meeting which
was called for the advance-
ment of the town and county
never saw his name on a pub-
lic subscription list for any
civic enterprise whatever, and
yet he lives here, makes a liv-
ing here and stands around
and curses the town. Now, ere
we pass, we want to say that
we have a perfect contempt
for that sort of a citizen. Fur-
thermore, we don't believe in
a boycott, as it is a sign of
cowardice and weakness to
boycott any man or faction,
but suffice it to say that if the
other fellow has what we want
we mean the fellow that boosts
for his town, we look him up.

one who has before her all
that the fond hopes of a
young wife could cherish it
seems doubly sad.
Betty Janak young and beau-
tiful wife of Charles J. Janak
was but 27 years and 7 months
old when the call came for her
to leave all earthly scenes and
take her place among the re-
deemed in that land beyond
the skies where tears and par-
tings are unknown. She was
called from this life to the life
beyond at midnight last Satur-
day. The weeping watchers
around her bedside were
aware of the flickering light
of life that was burning so
low, and at the hour stated
her pure, sweet soul took its
flight for the realms above.
She was a woman whom to
know was to love. She took an
interest in her home and was
a dear lover of flowers. Home
was her castle and she had
every desire to be a true wife
and mother. She knew that
with husband and children life
for cash because they get the
best goods at the lowest pri-
ces that is why you can buy
the best in the latest styles at
Meyerhoff for a price to suit
your purse.
The manager of the Meyer-
hoff Dry Goods Co. Mr. Reich-
man stated he realized that
last year was a hard one due
to the drouth through this
section of the state but he rea-
lized more fully the needs and
demands of the trade of the
Meyerhoff Dry Goods Co.
therefore they would purchase
one of the largest and most
up to date line of Spring and
Summer goods ever brought to
southwest Texas. They ask
that you wait and see their
line and compare prices be-
fore you buy your Spring and
Summer supply of anything
carried in their line.
Every man woman and
child in Lavaca and adjoining
counties know that the Meyer-
hoff Dry Goods Co. carries

Last Friday afternoon the
High School basket-bail team |
went to Moulton to engage |
in the second fray of the sea- j
son between the two schools, i
The game opened with a !
rush quite a while passed be- j
fore the first point was scored. ;
The referee Prof. Biggs called j
a foul on a Hallettsville play-
er giving Moulton a free
throw, which they made. Soon
Hallettsville threw a free
throw and tied the score. 1-1.
Then Moulton scored a field
goal putting it 3-1. The suc-
cessive scores were 3-3, 5-3
5-5 5-6 and ending the half
with Hallettsville leading 8-
5. In the second half the Hal-
lettsville boys were better
able to get away from their
guards and the final score
was 20-10.
The whole game was fea-
tured with very fast playing
and co-operation among the
placers of both teams.
Because the Moulton team
was left with the small end of
the score does not signify
that they deserved to lose.
They played throughout the
game with the peppy, fighting
spirit of good sports and
when the game ended they
heartily cheered the winners.
There was much fouling
done by members of both
teams but it could hardly be
avoided in such a fast game
played on an undersized
court. ***

that their prices have always
been right. This year you will
find the same up to date stock
in every line of Spring and
Summer goods in the very la-
test styles and at prices that
will suit the purse of every
customer that buys at the Big
Store on the corner.
Nothing is overlooked by
Mr. and Mrs. Reichman wtfiile
in New York that pertains to
the interest of the customers
of the Meyerhoff Dry Goods
Co. they want their friends
and partons to know that their
interests are not only looked
after in buying a first class
stock of merchandise to sell
them at prices that will be a
saving in dollars and cents but
they want to serve you person-
ally in any way they can. If
you need anything special and

and she was true to her every
vow and to the highest senti-
ments of devotion and duty.
In the realization of her joy
she made the supreme sacri-
fice and surrendered her life.
What a sad sundering of ties.
Her plans for the future torn
asunder. Calmly she laid down
her life and with Christian for-
titude yielded to the will of
Him who doeth all things well.

Night Coughing
Quickly Stopped
Nmt Way Staple But
Very Effective
Night coughing, with its distressing
loss of sleep and dangerous sapping
of strength and vitality, can now be
almost instantly checked through a
simple but wonderfully effective treat-
ment that is economical, too.
This treatment is based on the fa-
mousprescription known as Dr. King’s
New Discovery for Coughs. For aston-
ishing relief make this test tonight
before retiring;—Simply take one tea-
spoonful and hold it in the throat for
15 or 20 seconds before swallowing it.
The prescription has a double action.
It not only soothes and heals soreness
and irritation, but it quickly loosens
and removes the phlegm and conges-
tion which are the real car.sj of night
couching. So with the cause removed,
cou ;hi: g stops quickly and T.cp
the whole night through.
The Dr. King’s New Discovery pre-
scription is for coughs, che t colds,
sore throat, hoarseness, bronchith,
spasmodic croup, etc. Fine for einldr :?
as well as grown-ups — no b?rnrnil
