THE REASON SOME FOLKS
CAN’T PAY.
A Buford merchant claims to have
received the following letter from
creditor: > 1
"Dear Sir: i have your statement
showing that 1 owe you $769.80, and
I am enclosing a check for $5 for
which please send me,* receipt,
st “l am sorry that I eartnm. pay you
more at present as I am Triable to
collect from my customers, as money
is to scarce right now.
“My own living expenses are ter-
rible and with my store and farm,
I can hardly get along. I will try to
send you another payment of $5
when I sell my hay which should be
in June. I cannot pay you, more at
that time, for my daughter finishes
college this year, and that costs
heap of money.** an .
“I thought I could send you a
check when I got my tobacco money,
but it took ail l could rake and
scrape to put in the lights, as my
wife did not have electricity to run
the separator, the sewing machine
and the vacuum cleaner. Then, too,
we had tp build a shed for the Ford
so we could put the new Cadillac in
the garage, and build a concrete
bridge over the brook in our front
lot, as well as a new road, so we
could get In and out better.
“I can’t send you the corn money-
in the fail, because my son iL going
to college end although the lads of
today are very economical about hats
and garters, still a coon skin coat
costs the old mad -a lot and even
junkyard cars come rather high by
the time they are decorated for col.
lege use.
“I might send you the hog money,
but the missus and 1 have planned n
trip to Niagara in the fall, and after
her working hard all these years, I
think she deserves a trip. We can’t
go before fall for she is having the
house redecorated and refinisheij,
taking out ail the red plush and put.

This is a terrible strain on my fi-
nances. especially as the new well

A«*tin. — Gov. Allred probably
will personally deliver his message
to the legislature convening Jan.
12. It will contain recommendations
upon a program for the four-months
session.
“Yes, I think I will deliver it per-
sonally," he said. “Then I will be
sure it is read.’’
He has followed that procedure
with nearly all his messages the past
two years. - ■

A DEDICATED LIFE
COMES
SI
ESTOA
PEACEFUL END
The governor announces he will
accept no invitations out of town
during the session except possibly
for short intervals over the week-
ends. „ .
For that reason he declined an in-,
vltation to address a conference at
Dallas to discuss traffic safety con-
ditions. He indicated he would
send a secretary.
■
On returning from a New Year's
visit to El Paso, where he attended
a “Sun Carnival” and football
game, Gov. Allred confirmed a re-
port he had been out of the state
for about two hours, and because
Lieut.-Gov. Walter F. Woodul also
was out of the state, Senator Tom
DeBerry, president pro tempore of
Yhc Senate, was acting governor.
Allred spent the brief period in
Juarez and Woodul was in Mexico
City.
“Senator DeBerry probably serv-
ed that term as acting governor in
bed,” the governor said, "for I went
to Juarez about midnight."
Texas’ chief executive was given
a flattering reception in the Mexi-
can border town, he reported. He
was 'received at headquarters of the
commandant with a display of cav-
alry, talked with that officer through
an interpreter, and then was wel-
comed at the municipal building by
the mayor.
Expressions of friendship anil mu-
tual regard were exchanged.
SPECIAL NOTICE
FORUM MEMDERS
The Standard Club will present
its artists to the Forum in a pro-
gram at one-thirty Wednesday aft-
ernoon in the club rooms. Due to
inadequate telephone communica-
tions, there will be- no luncheon.
•The program will be open to all
Forum members.
Business meeting will be at one
o’clock. -
In El Paso the governor had an
experience for which he had been
looking several years. He met a
“buddy" of World War days, Jim-
ie Bell, now » resident of Las,
uc*h, N*w*VeW. l ^
“Bell anti I were in the immigra-
tion. service," the governor said. "I
told him I would join the navy if he
would, and he said ‘O. K.’ So we
joined and were sent to California.
I'hadn’t seen him since we were
mustered out.
“In El Paso I was drinking cof-
fee and someone slapped me on the
back. It was Bell. He heard I was
in El Paso and came over to see
me."

two brothers—a good brother and a bad brother," etc. etc. etc.

Coy. Allred will recommend many
matters to the legislature but. his
recommendations will not include
general revision Of Texas . 60-year-
old constitution. Several members
of the legislature, including Sena-
tor Olin Van Zamlt of Tioga, have
said they will sponsor legislation
providing for a constitution revision
convention.
"When we have as much difficul-
ty as we do keeping defects and con-
flicts out of single amendments to
the Constitution," the governor said,
“I do not see how we could hope to
do a good job in revising the whole
thing at one time, l
“I would be apprehensive of what
might happen to the court decisions,
rules on property, and liberties of
the people. Consider the errors
that crept into the codification of

Feed and Seed Lean*.
The President said last year, when
he approved the Feed and Seed Loans
for 1936, that, he did not expect to
approve another appropriation for
that purpose. However, this organiza-
tion has functioned so efficiently and
has accomplished so much good for
deserving’ farmers that I am reason-
ably certain that the President will
approve another bill this year for at
least $4Q,000,000 and possibly more.
The name ef ine loan will be chang-
ed fro;,i Feed and Seed Loan to Crop.
Production •Loan. The maximum
loan will probably be $400. The loans
may be used for seed, feed, planting
and harvesting crops and VnOCessary
'supplies incident thereto." __
Child Labor.
There are many conferences being
held for the purpose of arriving at
a solution of the problems involving
child labor, shorter working hours
and starvation wages, Along with the
correction of the abuses growing out
of these problems new problems
ariu>. For instance, if the govern-
ment denies a young person the right
to work and make a living for him,
self, When he has no other means of
support, it should assist him in some
way and especially provide an oppor-
tunity for his education. The Presi-
dent once suggested that our govern-
ment should obligate itself to pro-
vide educational opportunities to all
young people until they arc 18jupl
arrange to entice from employment,
by the payment of pensions or com-
pensation, all citizens who become
06; in other words, let the work and
services be performed by those be-
tween 18 and 65.
Shorter Hours.
If hours are shortened to the ex-
tent that one man can hold two jobs,
unemployment will not be relieved
unless this is prevented. It is Weil
known that many government work-
ers in Washington who are not forc-
ed to work long hours own and drive
a taxi or perfbtm other work and du-
ties before and after their govern-
ment work.
Starvation Wages.
If..starvation wages are to be pre-
^ r4nlfcd should be—starva
tion prices Should be prevented. Be-
tween thirty Arid forty million of our
120,000,000 population arc depend-
ent for a livelihood upon production
either on the farm, on the ranch, hi
the mine, in the orchard or in the
forest. They represent so much of
the American market that the whole
country suffers when they fail to
get a fair price. It is just n« neces-
rary that they get a fair price as for
those who convert the raw materials
into the finished products, and who
represent thirty-six million of our
people, to get a fail' wage.
Any move in the direction of go Oil
prices and good wages should be en-
gaged and commended; our enorm-
ous debt and tax burden cannot be
paid with cheap prices and starvation
wages hut will be easy To pay with
good prices and good wages.
IN MEMORY OF
ROBERT CREIG
igifi.......iTZcj t.
On Friday evening, Dec. 18, 1936,
in a hospital in Louisiana, our dear
friend, Miss Maudie Woods, depart-
oil this life. We cannot understand
tfhy Maudie had to go so soon for
she was only sick a few days, but
God needed one"'more flower-to
bloom in the garden of love so H <
called her home.
We find words inadequate to ex-
press the great love and appreciation
• re share for this wonderful charac
ter. She put her faith in Christ at an
early age and aligned hcraelf with
the Baptist Church, where she re-
mained a true Christian to the end,
ever ready to -do anything she could
in God’s cause. It Wan never too b»d
Tor her to attend church and Sunday
school.
Maudie moved . into" the Weaver
community about 18 years ago where
the lived^jvith her parents until about
a year ago. She taught in our school
four year* where she proved herself
very efficient ancj painstaking and.
v?on the love and respect of her pu-
pils by her sweet smile and sunay
dispoistion, always willing to assist
in any way at any time. I’m sure
this wonderful association will be an
inspiration that will remain with
them through life. They will also re-
member her as their Sunday school
teacher, being of such strong, noble
character, and with it she had a
warm and affectionate feeling for
her little friends and above all, so
loyal and true to her family. To them
v.'e would say, Weep not as for one
who had no hope." Of course it «<
hard to give her up, but our Savior
knows best and saw fit to call her
home away from this world of suf-
fering anil sorrow.
I believe if Maudie could speak
she’d say, weep not, dear daddy;
mother, brothers and sisters, but pre-
pare to meet me when this life is
o’er.
We cannot call her back but if we
live as she lived we will be reunited
in Heaven.
She leaves her parents, two sis’ers
and four brothers ' and a host of
friends and other relatives to mourn
her going.
Funeral services and burial took
place Sunday, Dec. 20, at Richland,
lb-other Ferry Griffith officiating.
Your dear family circle is broken,
Ami there is a vacant chair;
Tin- dear one is sweetly sleeping
in a land that'- waiting there.
You will miss your dear Maudie,
Much more than tongue can tell;
But humbly we submit to Jesus,
For all things He doeth well.
Tile home will lx- sail without her
In this world of sin and woe.
But we shall nieet her in Heaven
When- no and parting we shall know.

On Dee. 17/1936. the death angel
visited the home of Mr. and Mrs. A.
B. Creig and claimed as its victim
their youngest son. Robert. He waa
a dear, sweet little boy, and even
though a frail child and never very
strong physically, he had a most
pleasing disposition and was dearly
loved ,by bis teachers and school-
mates.
I hid Robert for better than a year
as an English pupil, and I should, like
to say that 1 have never had a more
obedient, willing and more cheerful
little Worker, than Robert pfoved to
be. He was ever anxious to be of
some service to me, and was kind and
thoughtful at all’ times.
Robert was a good sport on the
playground as well as in the class-
room. and needless to t&y, we are all
deeply grieved by his untimely pass-
ing. Although, of qourse, We know
that God knows best and we are eon-

Health-Wrecking Functional
PAINS
Severe functional pains of
menstruation, cramping spells
and jangled nerves soon rob a
woman of her natural, youth-
ful freshness. PAIN lines in
a woman’s face too often grow
into AGE Hpes!
Thousands of women, have
found it helpful to take Car-
dut. They say it seemed to
ease their pains and they no-
ticed an increase in their ap-
petites and finally a strength-
ened resistance to the dis-
comfort of monthly periods.
