Some of you old cowhands
remember the lice fights they
used to pull when the boys
gathered around on Sunday
afternoon with nothing much to
do. I think that one of these
old fashioned lice fights might
be In order on the Pioneer Day
program. The boys took lice
fiviiit ulffrirut uuuica uitu pul
them on a big silk kerchief.
When they got tangled good,
they sure did fight. I don’t
know where we can get the lice
though, unless some of the cow-
girls will go far enough to ac-
comodate us. They’re the ones
wearing the cowboy garb, and
they ought to go nil of the way.
How about It girls?
how. mv heart kind of swells up
i with pride when I think about
I him coming out here as speaker.
' I think that must be how a
teacher feels about a student who
makes good—even though Deck
was the teacher and I was the
pupil. Anyway, I am going to put
my personal OK on his speech.
Long before I went to work for
him, I heard him speak at Aus-
tin on a program with Senator
Tom Connally, with the presi-
dent uf llir Uiiivrieuly uf Tr*-
as. and with the Editor of the
Christian Slence Monitor and a
lot of other big shots. Well,
everyone I knew said he made
the best speech of the entire
day.

I know how a school teach-
er feels when one of her
students becomes an out-
standing leader In some
field. At least, I think I
know.
The reason I say thli Is be-
cause my old boss, H. Deskln
Wells from down at Welling-
ton, Is president of the Texas
Press Association and Is going
to be principal speaker at the
Chamber of Commerce banquet
Folks, don't expect Deck to
he n big shot, lie’s just an old
country boy. lie wus reared
on a Collingsworth County
furni. lie raised chickens and
hogs and saved his money to
go to school. Some of his
readers say he would still
make a better farmer than a
editor—but since the editors
of all weekly and dally papers
in Texas huve made him
president of the biggest press
association in the world, I
think they’re wrong. Plan
now to attend the banquet
and hear him. You'll miss
something If you don’t. Thle
