There is no time and not the
least excuse in the world for
politics. From president down
to constable, there is but one
issue, and that issue is American-
ism.
In one of Gen. George Wash-
ington’s darkest hours in revolu-
tionary times, he Rave the order:
“Put none but Americans on
Kuard tonight.” That order
meant that in the crisis then im-
pending, that only those of un-
questioned loyalty could render
the needed services. The princi-
pal is true today. “None but
Americans”-none but the tried
and true—none but those whose
whole heart and soul is in active
sympathy with America, can
render the service which “true-
blue” red-blooded Americans de- Mar,"‘ G“rci*

Keep your eye open for the
July primary. All candidates
for state offices are to be consid-
ered at that time. “Put none
but Americans on guard” and
then the Democratic party of
Texas can say to our peerless
president: “We are with you to
win.” _
In the July primary, we either
vote for Wilson or Bill the Butch-
er. No camouflage can disguise
that fact and no political expla-
nations can take the place of pa-

Lives of Your Children
After all, it’s not the school training but the home
atmosphere which molds the child. Children
brought up in a cultured home betray that fact
during their entire lives. It leaves a lasting imprint.
A home with any claim to culture is a home in
which good music is enjoyed and understood. A
child whose interest in music is fostered will be*
come a man or woman who possesses a resource
which makes for lasting happiness.
You want to give your children every advantage.
That is just one reason why you want
