'Left-Handed Compliment'

day of the called session.
some of these people from branch-
ing out into some other business.
The session convened Tuesday,
at 12:00 noon, but nothing was
done much more than to ogran-
lze the house and get everything
in operation. There is always a
lot of different colored tape that
has to be gone through in opening
the session of the Legislature and
to my mind the most of is red
See where a bank in Denver in
putting in left-hundcd checkbooks.
They figure their southpaw depos-
itors deserve just as much consid-
eration as the right handers.
Time was when it was believed
that left-handed people had no
right to exist at all. If a youngster
showed signs of using his left
hand, his parents were supposed to
break him of the habit—to force
him to use his right.
But today most doctors will tell
you that changing a child’s natu-
ral left-handed tendency usually
causes more harm than good.
Stammering and other nervous dis-
orders often get their start that
way with children.
From where I sit, if a man wants
to use his left hand—that’s hia
business. It’s not such a good idea
to make anyone do things our way,
just because we think it’s right.
Personally, I think a mellow glass
of beer is the finest beverage on
earth. If you happen to prefer a
Coke—why, go to it! Only leave me
the same freedom of choice, won’t

The Speaker, after calling the
house to order and having a
prayer by the chaplain and a
few other things, makes a speech
and states the purpose of the
called session. Of course, we
have all been knowing that for
several months what it is all
about, but they have to do it ac-
cording to Hoyle.

Then several committees are ap-
pointed. One is to go and in-
form the Governor we are here
and ready for business. And the
Governor invariably sends back
word “he is ready when we is.”
And then another committee is
appointed to go over and inform
the Senate we are in session and
then the Senate sends over a
committee and informs the house
they are in session. Then with
a number of othe. minor details
they are all set for business.
A number of bills have already
been introduced and read for the
first time. One was a bill to tax
any person applying for a divorce
twenty-five dollars. One man
thought it ought to be set at five
hundred dollars — that a lot of
people would give that amount
to get shed of their husband or
wife. I don’t know what the
outcome of this bill will be as
I expect a great deal of argufy-
ing and condisbuting when it
comes to the floor of the House.
My wife and I are located at
1604 North Congress. When we
came down here the first time
in 1941 we got a nice five room
house for thirty-five dollars. Now
we are paying nearly fifty dol-
lars for one room. If it keeps
on, in a few years the members
will be camping under a tree.
Some of these houses in Austin
are like some of the people —
they look good on the outside
but on the inside they are full
of cheap stuff and need a good
cleaning.
Today, Tuesday, there was a
joint session of the House and
Senate when the Governor de-
livered his message. It was as
fine a talk as I ever listened to.
Now it is up to the legislature to
carry out his request.
A concurrent resolution was in-
troduced instructing the Presi-
dent what to do with some of
that bunch up there. A con-
siderable wrangle sprang up over
that. Some said we should not
consider anything other than
what the call was made for, but
it is nearly impossible to keep

The Governor’s message was
well taken and made a very
favorable impression on the mem-
bers. He went right down the
middle of the road and showed
no fear or favor to any special
group or clique. think the
members, in the main, will fol-
low his suggestions. However,
after its delivery a man got on
the floor of the house and skin-
ned him alive. But that is to
be expected.
I realize that it a serious pro-
position and the members must
proceed with extreme caution. If
relief can be brought painless
the Legislature will do that, but
there are some operations that
can never be painless.
Some think we will probably
get away from here in another
week or ten days. No one knows
from where we set now.
Addran Oil Test

A report received in Sulphur
Springs Tuesday stated that drill-
ing on the No. 1 Henderson was

The W. B. Hinton Company is
lowering the operation on a tract
of land owned by C. L. Hender-
son in the Addran community.
