Among the citations which com-

following from the Bible: ‘‘Ail
things were made by him: and
without him was not any thing
made that was made” (John 1:3>.
The Lesson-Sermon als<> includes
has happened In other new communities is happening again |Timm, economist in farm manage-,
in this one. A group ot people come into a nouv land and start
into a new industry thinking thev have .come to the proverbial
land of “milk and honey”. The new land is fertile and it will
never wear < utl The new industry will pay and pay! The dairy
industry will continue to pay but only to those who realize
that those glorious times are gone, who realize that a ndw pe-
riod i> here, a period of physical and mental adjustment. The.'
must realize that they must build up what they have torn
down. Lands must be repaired, herds rebuilt, up to the old
standards.
Who is going to do this! In most communities families work
together to earn a livelihood, most fathers like to have their
sons work with them that they may carry on their work. A
breeder likes to think that what lie-has done
foundation for the bigger and better things his sons will do,
for in this way lasting progress is made. Farmers in sections
where agriculture has thrived for generations pride themselves
in the fact ihat their farms are more fertile and productive
than th*.y were when first tilled. All of this is a sign of stabili-
ty.
In this section, mpst of the boys are leaving the farms!
There are but a ’few who are interested in dairying, even
though they have spent their entire lives on a dairy farm.
This is not the fault of the boys. The fault is with the fathers
who do not teach them to have itride in their farms, their dai.
ries, their homes. The boys are not .asked to share the respons-
ibilities, help with the problems that ar£ constantly arising.
If they are to be interested, their opinions must be asked and
respected and their help solicited.
Surely the community is overlooking its greatest asset when
it does not try to train and develop the younger generation to
intelligently carry on this great industry.

Humble Station salesmen are selected men
who have been carefully trained to give your
car the care it needs to keep it running right
and looking good. The service they render is
so competent that many Texas motorists have
shiited the care of their cars to Humbles
shoulders; they depend on the Humble stations
in their neighborhoods to call them when it’s
time to wash and lubricate their cars, to change
oil, to check bdtteries and tires.
Equipped with every modern facility for
servicing your car. Humble stations are truly
••rrtce stations. See for yourself. Let a Humble
Station wash your car, lubricate it, change the
oil- Next time you need battery water, or air
in your tires, stop at the Humble sign. That's
the best way we know to show you how com-
plete, how thoroughly satisfactory. Humble
service really is . . One stop, and the next
thing you know. you. too, will be shifting the
care of your car to Humble’s shoulders—like
thousands of other Texans, you'll have the
Humble habit.
