Celina merchants and other bus-
iness men seem to have been innoc-
ulated with the Thanksgiving spirit
and have taken much space in the
Record this week to let the fact be
known. Celina merchants are a fine
bunch and will give their patrons
better treatment than those of other
places wThere no ties of friendship
exist between merchant and patron.
IT IT IT
No matter how hard one’s lot,
there is always somethin^ for which
to be thankful. So lets all be thank-
ful for the many blessings the Crea-
tor has bestowed upon us during the
year. Thanksgiving is a time of i
homecoming of loved ones and the I
Record trusts there shall be many I
homes in this community this Thanks- |
giving where those who have gone 1
out from the home nest will again i
gather under the family roof and en-
joy the association of each other.

The Celina Record remarks:
“Kenedy County, Texas, has never
had one of its 701 citizens on gov-
ernment relief, nor has any one of
them made application to get on the
relief rolls. It is probably the only
county in the nation with such a
record, which is one that any county
should be proud of. Kenedy County
is on the gulf in the southwestern
part of the state and cattle is its
chief and almost its sole industry.”
Kenedy County is a shining exam-
ple for the rest of the state, and the
nation for that matter, in being able
to take care of its own people. The
situation is conceded to be different
in that county from most counties,
as the population is very small and
living expenses are not high in the
open cattle country. Yets undoubt-
edly quite a number of Kenedy’s cit-
izens would have obtained relief had
they sought it, but the independent
spirit of the Texas cattle country
prevailed and they elected to make
their own way.—Denton Record-

Funeral of J. W. Eller,
Former Celina Citizen
An account of the funeral of J. W.
Eller, former Celina citizen and un-
cle of Mrs. C. F. Wilson, as it ap-
peared in the Clovis. N. M., paper,
follows:
J. W. Eller, 76, pioneer of Curry
County, died Wednesday morning at
the home of his son, Charlie Eller,
at 1003 Sheldon street, after an ill-
ness of only a few days. He had not
been in the best of health for sev-
eral months but was in bed only a
few days.
In the passing of Mr. Eller, this
section loses another of its pioneer
citizens, one of those who came to
this section in the early settlement
of the county. Mr. Eller and his fam-
ily came to this section in 1907 and
bought a relinquishment southwest
of Blacktower. They proved up on
this homestead and have continued to
live on the old home place. .
The family moved to this section
from Celina, Collin County, Texas,
but prior to that time Mr. Eller had
lived in the west and had been an
employe on the old Matador ranch
in west Texas when the plains sec-
tion was devoted to the cattle in-
dustry alone.
Funeral services are being held
this afternoon from the Methodist
church at 2:30 and will be conducted
by the Rev. J. W. Rosenburg, pastor
of the Clovis circuit/
Mr. Eller is survived by his wid-
ow, Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Eller; two
sons, Jake and Charlie Eller, both of
whom are employed at the Clovis
postoffice; and three daughters, Mrs.
Dela Farris, Clovis, Mrs. Vera Jones,!
Portair, and Mrs. Nora Oetkin, Tu-I
cumcari. He also leaves six grand-
children.
