MUSIC IS RECEIVED
FOR BAND CONTESTS
Director A. B. Ronald states that
the music for the state band contest
has been received and practice has
begun on the music. The contest will
be held on June 18, 19 and 20, at Fort
Worth, during the West Texas Cham-
ber of Commerce meeting and the
Lampasas band will be in the five-
year-old class this year. It will be
remembered that the band won not

year class last year at Wichita Falls,
but also made the highest score of

titled them to the gold medal. Plans
have not yet been worked out for
the trip this year, but the band is an-
xious to go and has begun work on
the music, which will be played in
their class this year.
TEXAS CONGRESSMAN
RAPS CAPITAL POLICE
Washington, D. C., Mar. 8.—Police-
men in the third precinct were given
today a list of alleged bootleggers’
addresses in their territory and told
it was up to them to do something
about it, by Representative Blanton
of Texas, a member of the District
of Columbia committee.
Rep. Blanton who, not long ago,
charged that Chief of Police Edwin
B. Hesse was seen drinking liquor in
a saloon, appeared unannounced as
the men were at roll call. He asked
the captain in charge to call the
cers to attention and then after a
ture on law enforcement produced
list of names and addresses.

Her face is sweet, she dresses neat,
Her voice is light and gay;
She’s always there, this lady fair,
She knows just what to say.
With gracious art she wins your heart;
Her friends are many score,
It is a treat to with her eat,
She trades at Moses & Sewell Store.

Former Lampasas Lady Marries.
Mrs. Annie C. Marcee announces
the wedding of her daughter, Mrs.
Laura M. Dorbandt, to J. L. Stubble-
field, which took place in Las Cruces,
N. M., Thursday evening, March 1,
at 9:30 o’clock.
Mrs. Stubblefield, who formerly
lived in Houston, has made her home
in El Paso for the past eight months.
Mr. Stubblefield owns the Midway
Pharmacy and has lived in El Paso
for several years.
The above news item was taken
from a recent issue of the El Paso
Herald. The Marcee family formerly
lived in Lampasas, having left this
city to make their home in Houston.
A Big Little Giant.
A penny is a little, insignificant
thing. Seems to have just about as
much power as a half grown gnat,
j Usually the penny isn’t much good
in this day of dollars and dimes un-
less it has company—a lot of com-
pany.
According to the figures of a statis-
tician of the National Electric Light
association, here are some of the
things the “little gnat” will do:
Run the vacuum cleaner approxi-
mately 40 minutes.
Operate a washing machine approx-
imately 50 minutes.
Heat a six-pound flat-iron approxi-
amtely 25 minutes.
Heat a toaster long enough to toast
16 slices of bread.
Brew 5 cups of coffee in a perco-
lator.
Heat a waffle iron long enough to
cook 20 waffles.
Keep warm a heating pad from 3
to 6 hours.
Run a sewing machine approxi-
mately three hours.
Heat a curling iron once a day for
three weeks.
Operate a vibrator, 20 minute
treatments daily, for 11 days.

Are You Spending
too much for Food ?
SAVE WITH
ICE
TT 7TTH all the luxuries that everybody wants nowadays—
VV such as a new car or a new radio—it behooves us all to
cut down as much on daily expenditures as possible in order to
keep up with the times.
Many housewives are finding that they can save a lot on food
through the use of ice. By keeping it in a well iced refrigerator
from the moment they receive it until they prepare it, they re-
tain the fresh food flavor—the family enjoy their meals more—
there is less left over.
Then, too, through the use of ice, left-overs, once scorned,
can be kept fresh and appetizing and made into dainty dishes
that meet with hearty enthusiasm from the whole family.
The few cents a day that ice costs pays for itself many times,
not only in the value of the food saved, but in its improvement
in flavor and wholesomeness.
