were three boys and six girls.
The only living one of the nine
children is Mrs. W. E. K.ertne-

The Lindley family were ear-

bought land when it was much
cheaper than it is now and
raised cattle and bought more
land. All the children, both

was one of the Reiley Lindley

ter that lost her husband sev-
eral years ago. I think it was a
brother that went over in Okla-
homa and died over there. So it
looks like the Bridges have had
more misfortune than anybody.

started he worked under two

his death, then Charles Ash-

Austin—The director of the
Texas Department of Public
Safety today reminded the
1,300,000 motor vehicle owners
who haven’t secured their 1903
inspection stickers that they
only have three weeks to do so.
Col. Homer Garrison, Jr., said
that as the April 15 deadline
f o r inspections approaches,
waiting lines will begin form-
ing at the 5,000 official inspec-
tion stations.
“Under the law there can be
no extension of the deadline,

I ment of the provisions of the

Garrison pointed out that in
! the three remaining weeks of
j the inspection period, there is
sufficient time for the remain-
ing vehicles to be inspected
without inconvenience provid-
ed the owners act promptly.
“We are very well pleased,”
he said, “with the contribution
that the vehicle inspection pro-
gram has made toward reducing
accidents on o u r streets and
highways. We hope that through
the continued cooperation of
| the people of Texas, these acci-
dents can be further reduced.”
