ANNOUNCEMENTS
The big thing is now on in Mad
iaon Square Garden, with the Dem-
ocrats selecting the next United
States president. The only question
that is bothering us fellows that are
left down here in Texas, is who is
to take charge of all the postoffices
that will soon fall to the lot of
good, old-time Democrats. Even At-
torney General Elmer Teer has
kindly got his ear to the ground, as
If he was expecting a call to go
.over and take charge at Dallas, or
some other big station of Uncle
Sam. He says there will be plenty
of Democrats to hold small stations
like Sulphur Springs and Green-
ville, but only a limited number
that can qualify for Dallas and
cities of that standing. He may be
Los Angeles, June 25.—Friend-
ship between America and Japan
would be enhanced by the spread
ing in Japan of the information
that the majority of American peo-
ple are not prejudiced against the
Japanese, according to an opinion
expressed here by Dr. Danjo Ebu-
na, president of the Dassnisha Uni-
versity ut Kyoto, Japan.
, “If America, through her official
and unofficial representatives in
Japan, fails to broadcast this desi-
rable information among the Japa-
nese,” said Dr. Ebuna, “then it is
probable that my people, in view of
recent events, will imagine that
America is against them and will
seek to unite the entire orient in a
sentiment unfavorable to the Occi-
dent- I regret the new difficulty
that has arisen because of a possible
misunderstanding between the peo-
ple of America and the -Japanese. ”
Since Japan forsook the customs
of the orient 70 years ago, the edu-
cator said, she has been following
the ways of America as much as
possible, politically, socially, ecp-
nomically, and even religiously, in
spite of the fact that Japan's atti-
tude toward western civiliation was
icwarded by the suspicion and hat
red of China, Korea and other ori-
ental countries.
“When Japan turned hei face io
ward the Occident, ill feeiing sprang
up between Japan and China," Dr
Ebuna asserted. “China considered
Japan an imitator of the 4vest, and
Japan began to look upon China as
a hopelessly reactionary nation. 1
am happy to say, however, that this
ill feeling has largely disappeared
and that China and Korea are now
adopting the ways of Japan.
“In their social life, as well as in
other respects, 1 find that your
American civilization has tended to
elevate greatly the Japanese people
and your criticism, as well as your
sympathy, has contributed to their
improvement."

Texarkana, Texas, June 25.—F.
M. Brooks, attorney here for thirty-
five years, died Tuesday. About
two weeks ago he fell from a bar-
ber chair and broke his hip. It is
said he n^ver recovered from the
shock. Several years ago he repre-

Texas legislature.
The funeral and burial will take

lantic to the Pacific coast, a gos-
pel car will leave here July 7 with
a party of welfare workers, some
of whom helped brighten dark (lavs
for the soldiers in the trenches in
Franye. On the front of the car wnl
be a brass plate with the inscrip-
tion “Ip the Service of the King.”
The automobile tour was planned
by some of the workers following a
visit to a cpnvict camp, where they
made doughnuts for the men and
talked and prayed with them. Tne
prisoners seemed so cheered by the
unexpected visit that it was decided
to spread the work to every prison
to which admission could be gained.
With 35 cents as capital, the wor-
kers set out. Their doughnut-mak-
ing, with doughnut cutters made of
captured German shells, and the ap-
peal of their idea soon brought them
aid, and recently .they were pre-
sented with a large automobile, ful-
ly equipped, in which to make their
journey. The first five gallons of
gasoline also was presented. With
this as a basis, the party plans to
dedicate the car at special services
here July 6, before leaving on their
trip, with Seattle, Wash, as the ul-
timate destination.
Letters have been sent out in ad-
varice to the governors of the vari-
ous states asking that the workers
be admitted to the state prisons,
while a permit has been obtained
admitting them to all federal pris-
ons.

Cloris Aiken, who made doughnuts
for the soldiers in the Argonne;

EGGS MUST BEAR
SELLER’S NAME
Hamlin, Texas, June 25.—Spon-
sored by the various chambers of
commerce of this section, the gro-
cerymen and the housewives and
being directly promoted by the
county agent and the . poultry
houses, a movement has been start-
ed over Jones county that promises
to materially influence the poultry
industry.
After July 1 the poultry dealers
have entered into an agreement to
pay 8 cents a dozen for infertile
eggs. During the past week approx-
imately 1,000 dozen of eggs in Jones
county have spoiled because the
roosters were not penned from the
flock and a campaign is in progress
to “swat the rooster’ and to save
the egg crop.
According to the United States
department of agriculture, the farm-
ers of America lose each year from
bad eggs $45,000,000 because the
public has not been educated in egg
preservation. And Texas eggs rank
among the lowest that are rated in
the United States.
AU eggs that are to be offered
for the market must be stamped
and the name of the poultryman
using the stamp ia recorded and
held by the poultry buyers. If .a
housewife buy* eggs with “Brown
■tamped on them and the egga are
bad the groceryman ia notified by
th* housewife. Brown ia placad on
the “bad egg blackliat’ and he
ceases to receive a premium on hia
«gg»-
/The system ia a protection to the
farmer who is trying to build up a
reputation for good egga. If
“Smith" adheres strictly to the rules
and offers only infertile egga to the
market, soon the housewife will de-
mand Smith’s eggs, and not only
will he be able to sell at a premium
of 8 cents a dozen, but the house-
wife will be willing to pay even a
still higher premium for them.
NOW’S THE TIME TO ADVERTISE
Totsdam, Germany, June 2&.—
In this historic city, where once
Frederick the Great, lover of ani-
mals, erected burial mounds for hts
favorite greyhounds directly out-
side Sans Souci castle, there has
been established a national train-
ing school for a type of dog con-
spicuous for the Red Cross insignia
carried on his harness—the guide-
dog for blinded soldiers.
Infinite patience must be exer-
cised by the two trainers in charge
to prepare the dogs for their task.
Those selected are almost invariab-
ly female shepherds. It has been
found that female dogs are the only
dependable ones. Males are apt to
forget their duties when they see ,n
good chance for a fight. With the
female the maternal instinct, the
feeling of oaring affectionately for
the blind master, is uppermost.
Kuecker and Wecherling, the two
trainers of the Potsdam kennel,’ put
the dogs through a rigid course of
training in which, however, the
whip is never applied. The dog must
learn to walk slowly, to obey the
master’s every word, to fetch things
for him when desired, not -only ^to
avoid the holes and projections and
ditches dangerous to itself, but also
to pull the master over far enougn
for him also to avoid danger. Sup-
posing, for instance, there is a pro-
jecting mail box. It is no hindrance
to the dog, but the : nimal must be
taught that .its master should be so
led as to avoid running into it.
These dogs must also learn to gauge
the speed of traffic so as to indi-
cate to their master whether it is
safe to cross the street.
When the time has come for the
cog to pass its final examination the
trainer harnesses the dog and bids
it lead its teacher, whose eyes are
tied for the purpose, through Pots-
dam The trainer can then tel!
whether the dog has mastered the
technique of leading.
, Next the prospective master is
sent for. All blind persons who de-
sire a guide dog must take up resj- J
dencc in the training school for a I
period of six^weeks, so that master j
and dog may"get used to each other.
Not always is the dog first selected ■
for a particular blind man the
proper one for that person. Psycho-
logical factors play a great role In
thia matter.- During the six-week
trial period, the shepherd dog re-
mains at the prospective master's
side day and night.
Few persons perhaps realize that
the task for a dog of acting as
guide to a blind man is a nerve-
recking one. The Potsdam trainers
figure that no guide-dog lasts long-
er than four or five years. After
that it is a nervous wreck. There
have been numerous cases on rec-
ord of such dogs going crazy from
actual nervousness.
» Arlington, Texas, June 25.—
Farming without a horse is being
put into actual practice by the
Slaughter Motor Co. of Arlington.
Recently a 100-acre farm, sod-
ded with Johnson grass, was leased
by Zack T. Slaughter for demon-1
i trillion purposes. This land'-js be-
ing cultivated with a tractor, two- j
row cultivator and planter unde-1
the personal direction of Mr.
Slaughter.
At present thirty acres are being j
cultivated a day, the crop being
gone over every four days.
Special Equipment will be used j
to harvest the crop and the only j
additional help will be for hoeim? j
and picking the cotton. Mr. Slaugh- i
ter plans to make this venture per- j
manent and improve on his methods i
year after year.
The cost of production is being i
carefully watched with the hope of i
making the crop on a smnller j
amount of money than any other i
similar experiment by the faripetr
Iff this vicinity.-----------------------—

New York, June 26.—On instruc-
tions from Justice M. Davis, a jury
in the supreme court has rendered
a verdict in favor of Archibald B.
Gwatchmey Jr., wealthy cotton
broker, in the divorce suit brought
by Mrs. Isaibelle Coomes Gwatch-
mey.
After testimony yesterday by
tradesmen and apartment house at-1
tendants as to Gwathmey’s visits to J
the flat occupied by Mrs. Bethsyj
C. Judd, named as co-respondent, j
counsel for Mrs. Judd and counsel i
for Gwatchmey moved that the com-
plaint be dismissed. Justice Davis
suggested that they move instead
that the jurors be instructed to re-
ply in the negative to each of tho
charges of wrong-doing.
The Gwatchmey’s were married
while Gwatchmey was a student at
Yale. They separated in 1919 and
later Gwatchmey obtained a divorce
in Florida, which ( was held not
binding in New York. Gwatchmey
then obtained an interlocutory de-
cree in Texas, but abandoned it be-
fore his wife filed auit.
Gwatchmey’* counsel told the
court that the broke* intended to
marry Mr*. Judd at the earlieat pos-
sible moment, but denied the
charges of Mrs. Gwatchmey.
