HOWARD KING
Parents, Students Look Forward
To Colorful Tiger Grid Activity
By SUE SMITH
Another summer will be
ending in a few days and kids
will return to school. A
high school senior and two
parents when asked “Are
you ready for school to
start?” expressed how many
people feel.
Brenda Jackson answered:
“Yes, I'm ready in a way.
Without a job summer has
been boring. I am going to
hate seeing some of my friends
leave town to start college."
“I’m looking forward to my
senior year with all of its
activities."
Howard King replied: “Yes,
I sure am. I’m ready. It has
been a real nice summer, but
the tire business is better dur-
ing the school months,"
boys are better off in school
than sitting at home with
nothing to do.”

that name which opened Aug, 17 for a two-week run at Casa
Manana. This is the same Mame who made history, first as
a best-selling novel called “Auntie Mame,” then as a long-
running stage-play and popular movie of the same name, and
then took over Broadway again in the musical version,
“Mame.” Others in the show will be Roberta MacDonald as
Vera, Marne’s best friend and actress. Jack Drummond as
the gallant southerner whom she marries, Karen Peeler as
the sedate nannie, who really comes to life under Marne’s
tutelege, Joe Walker as Young Patrick, her “little love,"
Dudley Layne as the same "little love" grown up, and Carl
Tressler as Ito, the Japanese butler. Performances begin
at 8:15 p.m, Monday through Saturday nights, with matinees
at 2:30 p.m, on Saturday. Reservations may be made by

- A weekly public service feature from-
the Texas State Department of Health
Texas cattlemen are facing
a very serious situation,
which has its bearing on
the country’s beef supply,
due to their inability to get
loans, according to A. C.
Williams, assistant secre-
tary of theCattle Raisers As-
sociation of Texas. He said
that the money stringency
was bringing about the de-
pletion of existing herds and
preventing the building up of
new ones.
“More good pasturage is
going to waste in the cattle
country than for many years,”
Mr. Williams said. Range
conditions in Texas and else-
where have been ideal for the
past year, and prices, though
unsatisfactory, have not in
general meant actual loss to
the stockmen. The relatively
low prices prevailing have
been in goodly measure a
result of the inability to ob-
tain credits.
“The present financial sit-
uation, however, followed on
the heels of severe drouths in
both the Southwest and North-
west, is bringing about a
reduction of the cattle popula-
tion which must in the end
mean mounting beef prices
and nation-wide economic
loss."
“On a recent trip through
west Texas and New Mexico
I had occasion to observe that
many pastures were un-
stocked, or thinly stocked,
and inquiry developed the
fact that ow
to stock and had plenty of
security but could not obtain
loans....

Mrs. S. (Audrey) Castle-
berry was widely honored on
her 89th birthday Aug. 13.
Members of the Dorcas Sun-
day School Class of First
Baptist Church were invited
to the home of her niece, Mrs.
Lewis G. Johnson, for acele-

The refectory table which
held the cake and punch was
centered with a deep purple
gloxenia plant which the class
had sent her.
Assisting the hostess in
jl serving cake and punch were
Mrs. Loyd Edwards and Mrs.
Henry Tate.
Just before leaving her own
house, Mrs. Castleberry had
received her mail, which in-
cluded a card shower from
the Jacksboro chapter, Order
of the Easter Star, of which
she is the only charter
member. From the Rainbow
Girls she received an original
poem. Her birthday wishes
included remembrances from
numerous nephews and nieces.
diabetic is no longer a slave
to the needle.
Diabetes is a condition in
which the body is unable to
use food properly, especially
the carbohydrates in the body.
Diabetics have difficulty
turning these sugars and
starches into energy. An In-
dividual’s body normally pro-
duces a substance called in-
sulin, which enables the body
to burn ig> sugar for energy
or store it for later use.
Diabetes is an inherited
trait, as far as we know. The
cause is not enough insulin
or an interference with the
action of insulin in the body.
Diabetes is a disorder which
may have existed from birth.
