■ KOPPERL citizens have recently
become interested in the road con-
tract along Whitney Lake let by
the Commissioners Court to Fred
Hall, which has previously aroused
Interest among Bosque County citi-
zens. Several of the men from Kop-
perl met with the court early this
week and had a tape recording
|nade of the meeting; this record-
ing will be run off for the benefit
of the entire citizenship of Kopperl
at 7:00 p.m. Friday night on the
street of that town. Any interested
citizen from any other part of the
county is invited to be present to
learn more about this question.
DURING the two years to come,
as well as during all future years,
it is hoped that the City of Clifton
will grow and progress and that
tile voters will keep this thought
in mind when voting in the April
1 election. Without someone to
decide a city’s policy, its progress
cannot take concrete form. There-
fore, any of us owe it to all of us
to take part in the affairs of the
city in which we live even to the
point of laying ourselves open to
criticism by serving in one of the
city offices. These council vacan-
. are open to any taxpaying
resident, whether male or female,
of the City of Clifton. Remember,
a progressive city makes for a bet-
ter county, a better county makes
tor a better state, and a better
state makes for a better nation.
^HUNTERS are urged to take note
of the advice recently made in
an editorial of the Tyler Courier-
Times. It states that “What is need-
ed more than anything else (rela-
tive to wild life) is a wholesome
observance on the part of the hunt-
ers themselves of the laws we now
have. To them, hunting is a game
just like baseball or football—and,
as true sportsmen, they should ob-
serve the rules of the game set out
in the laws of their state.”
