NONE TO SPARE
The following story of the Middle
West comes back to this country by
way of the London Times:
“If the drouth continues much long
or we shall be able to appreciate a
characteristic story of the American
Middle West,” says the Times. “A
farm band was called into the
house during n shower. “But a little
sprinkle doesn’t bothJr me,” protest-
ed the man. “That isn’t the point,’’
replied the farmer. “Vou come right
into the house. I want every drop
on my land.”
Mr. O. J, Hamil of Breekenridge is
here getting ready for business with
the new insurance company, with the
which he is now associated. Mr. Hamil
purchased a half interest in the E. K.
Mutual Life and Accident Company,
owned exclusively for this territory by
Mr. W. II, Rogers of this place. It
is the intention of Messrs. Rogers and
Hamil to work this bnsiness thorough-
ly and build up a large membership
in this territory. As soon as Mr. Ham-
il can get a house located he will move
his family here. We welcome them as

Highways Improved
Olton, Texas, Feb. 1.—Work on the
♦78,000 improvement program on the
F. V, F. Highway in Lamb County
will begin within a few day*. The
contract for this work was recently
Iqft to the J. N. Joordan Construction
Co. of Piainvicw. It is thought that
the work will be completed in time
for summer tourist travel. A short
detour over a good Plains road will
be used for the F. F. F. Highway
travel until the new project is com-
jdeted.
The Lamb County part of the F. F.
F. Highway, which is 38 miles long
will be in splendid condition for
travel every day in the year when the
construction work is completed. Im-
provements will also be made on the
local roads in Lamb County intersect-
ing the V. F. F. Highway.
Commissioners Court has adjoruned,
after quite a good deal of business at
their first quarterly meeting of the
jsear. This business consisted in the
making of yearly reports, checking np
the collector’s report, etc. One item
of considerable interest to tin* public
was in regard to tho matter of ur-dis-.
trleting the county as to commission- *
er’s precincts. A petition was present-
ed asking for this re-districting, but
a matter of this much importance could
not be handled on short notice and
this important question was postpon-
ed to the next quarterly meeting in
May. And that is pretty close to the
primary.
Sad Accident at Gilliland
It. was very sad and regretful affair
that, happened nt the home of Mr.
and Mre. J. O. Cure in the Gilliland
community Thursday of last week
when their two-year old child was
burned to death. The incident, as re-
lated to the Nows, oecured after the
mother had started a tire in tho stove,
having started it )by lighting some
paper, nnd after having left the room.
The mother had stepped out when in
u few minutes the screams of some of
the children were heard at, the house
and ns soon as the mother reached
the house the clothing of flic two-year
old child were practically burned from
its body, fj)lysieians were immediate-
ly summoned, but the child died with-
in a few hours.
It is supposed that, the baby was
trying to imitate its mother by light-
ing some paper ns if to start a fire in
the stove when its clothing was set,—
