people begin to feel a keen inter-
cat in country life.

during the winter time the ma-
jority of country people "went
to bed when it ivas dark under
the table." Our modern towns
have so brightened up that isJ
not true in many places. Yet a
good deal of valuable time is
wasted in small towns during
the .winter season which might
well be put into civic activities.
To begin with every small
town should have during tho
winter some organization work-
ing on the lino of economic prog-
ress. Some existing society or
some now one if the existing
one does not cover the field
should take up and discuss a
certain type of questions relat-
ing to the business life of the
community.
Such questions as these should
be asked and debated :

University last year.
"The fact that these cases

makes it possible for another
epidemic to spread such as the
one last year" Dr. Goddard said
this morning. "However all

to their own cost of living when
they do things in careless ways
that cause fires.
When fire losses are heavy
insurance rates must bo heavy
enough to cover them. Not
merely must the owners of prop-
erty pay but people Who rent
homes or who buys goods that
have to be insured against fires
have to pay something to cover
the cost of insurance. Cities and
towns have to maintain costly
fire departments that make taxes
higher.
RULING ON TAX PAYMENTS
Austin Oct. 6. Taxes may be
paid on any separately listed and
valued tract of land without the
payment of other taxes assess
ed against the owner or other
property the attorney general's
department held today in an o-
pinion by Assisstant W. W.
Caves. This ruling is a com-
plete reversal of the practice
heretofore followed in the state
it is said.
The sum of $226208.20 has
been deposited in the Farmers
State Bank at Thrall by the
State Department of Banking
to pay off depositors of the First
State Bank and Trust Company
of Taylor which failed last June.
Each depositor will receive a
check for full amount deposited.

"An effort is also being made
by the city health authorities to
rid Austin of mosuitoes and if
this work is carried to a satis-

that another epidemic will not
spread this year.

A TREMENDOUS FIRE LOSS.
For the past five yars much
has been done to arouse the at-
tention of the people to the awful
loss in this country from fire.
Fire Prevention Day and Fire
Prevention Week have been ob-
served with some interest and
enthusiasm. Yet the fires dur-
ing 1922 cost 15000 lives and
destroyed property worth $500-
000000. This is the biggest
since the year when the loss was
swelled by the fearful San Fran-
cisco fire of 190G. The Amer-
ican people have not yet awaken-
ed to the way they are throwing
away their resources.
October I) is fitly selected as
Fire Prevention Day as that was
the dato of the awful Chicago
fire of 1871. The people should
reflect that i.f preventablo fires
had been stopped since that date
the vast sum of money spent on
reconstruction could havo been
used to build up the country and
develop it far beyond the pres-
ent level. '"'

WAR WAGED
ON MOSQUITOES.
Georgetown Tex. Oct. 8.
A vigorous campaign against
mosquitoes which have recently
appeared in Georgetown was in-
augurated by the Chamber of
Commerce at a meeting held Sat-
urday night. Plans as outlined
will mean an immediate exter-
mination of the pests women's
clubs and other organizations
working with the Chamber of!
Commerce. A war on weeds
tin cans and in favor of a gener-1
al clean-up campaign was mapp-
ed out and necessary finances
guaranteed. It is Georgetown's
intention to avoid any cases of'
typhoid dengue or other disens-j
es of similar nature if a thor
oughly sanitary environment
can secure such immunity.
