TRIP TO NORTHEAST TEXAS
This represntative of The Stam-
ford Leader went down to Bon-
Ham last Saturday to see his twin
jrother, who has been in bad
palth for some time. He is really
•» the brother
larles R. Ingllsh. , ,
TUp trip was made with Dan
IS. Ingliah, ion of Mr. and . Mrs.
tarles Ingllsh. and who resides
it Big Spring, Texas.
Of course, going down in that
[country we could'hardly miss
| stopping at Dallas and.Fort
in Washington, made a good talk.
He was introduced by Dick Row-
land, both of them
living on adjoining farms out
south of Stamford. Omar Is mak-
ing a name for himsejf at the
greatest capital of the greatest
nation on earth. He’s on the Job,
day and night. Surely his constit-
uency cannot kick at such ever-
lasting .service as that, and they
are not. Omar has a host of
friends in Stamford, as well as
hls‘ jiome town, Anson, and ail
over the district.
The meeting was handled very*
nicely by President O, A. Kinney.
J. L. Hill was called to list the
Visitors. There were two Metho-
dist preachers among the . visit-
ors. Rev. Mr. Howse of Hamlin
and Rev, E. W. Berry of Abilene,
who is the district superintend
ent ,there, we are informed. Clyde
Westfall was a visitor. He's an
Exchangite, but he behaved beau-
tifully. John Hardtsty' was a
guest, also. He is with Omar Bur-
leson. '

And, while we were always closer in point of distance to the
people of this good town: yet we were always in good standing with
a large number of the people of other towns of the. county and in
the rural districts. It so happened that we were born on a farm, ir
Arkansaw’, at that, so we have a fellow-feeling for the man and
the woman and the children bn the farm. “Civilization begins and
ends with the plow.” to use the immortal words of the late and
lamented Governor Oram M. Roberts, of Texas. We have seen th.*
farms and farmers go forward for this more than a third of
century, and it really gives us a genuine pleasure to see the folks
on the farms prosper, be thrifty and love life, for they are “Th?
Salt of the Earth.”

Patient, true—ever hoping that we would “get ahead,” as she puts
it, and doing her best with all her strength to bring about that

Company'since 1918. He labored till the War No. 1 took him to the
front, when out stepped the one who started in then and has stayed
to the present as our mainstay, Charles. Sarah was easily one of
the best society and local reporters wc have ever had, but she has
been taking a holiday or furlough for some timp hack. There Is only
one who has not worked in thi6 office—Suzanne—Mrs. L. S. Abbott.
Inez knows a lot ahout a printing office. Even Jeff took a turn a*
It, and though he made good, he too. Went with the Sun Oil Co. Ail

“It is a medically established
fact that a child’s health has a
direct bearing on his progress in

“It is no longer sufficient to pro-

health factor must be considered
if the child is to reach his opti-

Dr. Ox said that since the
child spends most of his. time In-
