In vetoing the bill, Governor O’-
Daniel said, “The result of this bill
would be to substantially increase the
sale of intoxicating liquors to motor-
ists in Texas and to substantially
increase the number of fatal and nan-
fatal automobile accidents.”
The bill was pushed through the
Legislature by members who con-
tended that juries were reluctant to
convict first offenders of a felony.
It makes the first offense a misde-
meanor punishable by fine or jail
sentence and subsequent offenses
a felony punishable by penitentiary
sentnee. ' .

The following letter has been
ceived by the editor of this pa pe^ from
John A. Logan, now of Santa Monica,
California, but formerly of Graham: ‘
“Dear Sir: ,
“While out to March Field visiting
niy son, who is athletic instructor
there, he informed me that a com-
pany of Texas boys had just arrived
in camp. So I went down to what ia
known as Boot Camp where all new
recruits are taken and walking up
to the Captain of the guard I asked
if there was any one from Graham,
Texas. A fine-looking young man
snapped himself to attention and said.
“Corporal Repass at your service
sir.” And he immediately sends for
another by name of Cook. Then the
Army wept into “At Rest" and we
Texans went into a huddle and placed
everyone that I ever knew or could
remember was on the pan. _ Even
though I did not remember ever
knowing either of these boya’ par-
ents, we were as it secerned, old ac-
quaintances, and it brought back me-
mories to me of my boyhood days that
we spent in Graham and the Ole
Gang, J. B. Norris, RoberW*ee Mor-
rison, Bill Johnson, Scarb Mabry,
John Black <aod many others. And
as the old story goes news from
home is the beat news of all.
- t
r*"
“If you know these boys’ parents,
would you please let them know that
the boys are both well, happy and
enjoying the army life, and truly the
Texas company is the finest looking
bunch of boys in the camp. And I
am still a Texan at heart and proud
to see the boys doin^, .their part.
“Very respectfully, John A. Logan.”

E. R. Marchman, president of the
Graham Chamber of Commerce, has
announced that Mias Louise Lind-
say of South Bend haa been employ-
ed by the Chamber of Commerce.
Miss Lindsay was graduated from
Graham High School and for two
years attended T.S.C.W., at Denton,
where she was a journalism major

services, which have been made nec-

It happens regularly in the telephone
company. Some boy who grew up
hi your neighborhood moves into a
superintendent's or other execu-
tive’s chair somewhere in the Beil
System.
His big asset is his experience...
his "know how” , . . often gained
right in your home town.
Because Bell department heads
and operating chiefs among them
have that “know how,” they tackle
today’s telephone emergency, or to-
morrow’s telephone growth, with a
direct knowledge of your town and
your problems. They play a big
part in our effort to give you good
neighborhood service at rates that
almost everyone can afford—and
good nation-wide service as you
need it.
