eGrainger Philosophy—-Re-
cently Timpson people were
shocked and grieved , to learn
of the sudden death of one of
their fellow-citizens — Mr.
George Grainger. He-held the
love and affection of everyone,
and it is needless to say he b
missed around town, in the
home and among, those who
loved him best
In hb place of business hang-
ing on the cash register a neat-
ly framed small placard con-
tained what * 'J ruled ’Grain-
ger Philosoi,../,” and reads |u
follows:
“The clock of life b wound,
but once, and no man has the
power to tell just when the.
bands will step; at late or eariy
hour. NOW b the only time
you own. Live, Love, ToB, with
a will. Place no faith in tomor-
row, for the clock may then be
be present

Tex-
as,” Senator Johnson said. “We
must hold onto our rainfall in-
stead of allowing the water to
run off into the Gulf. If we
don’t develop our water supply
and conserve our water re-
sources, the Texas economy
will wither on the vine and our
State will become a waste-
land.”
The Senator said he is urging
the Senate Appropriation Com-
mittee to take action thb week
on many flood control and wa-
ter conservation projects in
Texas.

other dangerous habit by some

to a highway from a aide road
and almost stop fat the path on
an oncoming ear. Publishing
