The Record would dislike to see the
picnic pulled off withtout the weeds
being cut. It would be discreditable
to the town.
The bill providing for a 4c per gal
Ion gasoline tax and reducing the reg-
istration fee 50 per cent on private
cars has been enacted into law. The
registration fee for busses and trucks
remains the same.
This town stands in need of a weed-
cutting and some of the ungraveled
streets are badly in need of grading.
A car of gravel would fill hundreds of
depressions on the streets that are
graveled and make the going much
smoother.
It is said that “a burned child fears
the fire,” but Luther Otto, 76, whose
hearing is impaired, has been struck
three times by trains at the same
crossing near his home near Carlisle,
Pa. Looks like the old man is going

hurt.
On July 8, 1874, just fifty-five years
ago Monday, wheat was selling at Pi-

Charlie Andrews of the Celina Rec-

of Dallas as a candidate for governor
of Texas is not news, as everybody al-

E. G. Senter in the race next election
year, some Jim Ferguson type of cit
izen will have a walk-over for the
nomination.—Sherman Democrat.
In the strike of New Orleans street
car men several cars have been burned,
two people have been killed and many
injured. The street car company has
won out in the courts and action that
will test the value of the coui't decis-
ion is expected to come today when
an effort will be made to
