“The Silsbee Public Library

At the time being, the city pro-
vides $200 a month for the li-
brary and the Chamber of
Commerce $25. These funds
cover the librarian’s salary, die
building payment, and mini-
mum operating expenses. For
book purchases and supplies,
the library is dependent upon
the support of individuals and
organizations. The process of
growth into a fully publicly-
supported institution, well un-
derway, will take several years
to reach full attainment of the
goal. Every person and organi-
zation is urged to support, the
library with contributions and
projects, for its needs and the
requests for the services it of-
fers continue to outstrip all ex-
pectations,” Mrs. Joyce Wallace
said.

IN TEXAS..a new governor, Francis Richard Lubbock,
guided a bankrupt state through that bitter Civil War year.
Cotton, exported through Mexico, brought desperately
needed foreign gold. Homefront industries
were established. Comforts were few, but
morale stayed high .. and there was good
Texas beer, enjoyed then as now.
For then, as now, beer was the traditional bev-
erage of moderation — light, sparkling refresh-
ment that adds a touch of Southwestern
hospitality to any occasion. Texans have
always enjoyed the good fellowship that goes
with every glass.
TODAY, in its centennial year, the United States
Brewers Association still works constantly to
assure maintenance of high standards of quality
and propriety wherever beer and ale are served.
