THINGS IN GENERAL
(Coatiaaed fr®» p«f« om)
so frequently comes from the pen of
the sentimental writer, most have
been off on a vacation during this
little Welshman’s last year's strag-
gle, it must have % been down in the
jangle when the rays of the sun
formed leopard spot* on the clay
ground and became bewildered to
such an extent that the sufferer was
forgotten. Immaterial, we read, that
the wife said: “It was his heart that
killed him, it was broken. When
Freddy had money friends could get
It from him. When he was strapped,
they did not know him. He died
without a cent to his name, he recent-
ly hocked two of his belts, valufd at
$1,000.”
There you are, “when he was
strapped they did not know him.”
Men he had helped, even one of pu-
gnlistic fame at present, forgot that
there was such as Freddie; you could
not expect it to be otherwise. Such
is the gamble some men place on life,
we might censure and at the same
time condone, but we who accept, and
revel with the fortunate during his
flying glory, forget when the ship
hits the grounds and is demolished, to
even inquire if all is well with the
old top. Chickens haven’t anything
on the human at all; besides, they are
small brained feathered necessities to
sustain life, we cannot instruct them
to be good to the suffering of their
flock, they have an instinct to the
contrary, but the human creature, the
man who slaps you on the back and
-says you are a prince because he eats
your food and drinks your urine, is
endowed with a larger brain and a
body that can serve, instead he stands
ready and willing to kick down the
ladder that held him up; as long as
Freddie’s money lasted he was It, but
when gone Freddie was left "to die
of a broken heart.
Placing the Proper Successor
To George Neu
Last week’s Brenham Banner an-
nounced that T. C. Blake, for many
years a practical newspaper man,
and connected with the Brenham
Banner, had been elected by the di-
rectorate, to> succeed to the position
held by the late George Neu. We
commend the directors for their se-
lection, and believe that they will
have in Mr. Blake a man who can
step right in and carry on the good
work for which Mr. Neu was noted.
widow of Mr. Neu, haB
as a member of the
Board of Directors, which is also a
very good selection. The interest
that we have always manifested in
the success and prosperity of our
neighbor colleague will not cease
with the changes that have been
made. The Banner is one of the most
valued of our exchanges, and we like
to read it each week. With the sup-
port that the people, especially the
business element of Washington
county is giving to the paper, we can
aee no reason why it should not con-
tinue to rank with the best, and if
we are to judge by studying the late
Issue of the Banner, we are but ex-
ercising a privilege in saying that it
will be kept up to its usual high
standard.
The departure of the pilot on a
small craft like the Banner is ever
certain to leave its effect, but #when
the organisation that stands behind
t» determined to keep the paper as
heretofore the results can be easily
imagined. We shall be glad to know
that the Banner will always be with
the progressiva popers of the State.
And that is merely a matter of form
to so state, because the Banner will
Vo continue.

We are not worried in the least
with adverse criticism, what we are
looking for is a live bunch of boost-
ers, who are willing to do something
for the Fourth Annual Fair. So far,
there has been collected an army of
patriots who are going to do their
part and help make this Fourth An-
nual Fair one of the biggest things
that ever was. If you who rqad this
are interested, write to your friends
and tell them the dates are Septem-
ber 12 to 16. If you have a car call
at the Journal offiee and get a boost-
er banner. They are here for that
purpose.
