Each of ua has a tremendous
responsibility to society whether
we realize it or not.
Where we go; what we do; the
things we subscribe to, all have
a tremendous impact on those
around us.
We don’t suppose there is a
person that does not have an In-
fluence on some other person.
Many times when we least ex-
pect it someone is watching or
Imitating us.
The beginning point of our in-
fluence, of course, is upon chil-
dren. They imitate our language,
our habits, and our movements.

Have you ever stopped to no-
tice that within a family nearly
all the members will have the
same accent; will pronounce
words the same way; will use
the same expressions? And you
can put it down in your book
that what the old man does, the:
boy will do, as a general rule, j
But the imitation doesn’t end
there.
In adult life there are two
groups of people, for the most
part; those who lead and those
who are led. The larger group
that is led looks to the leaders
for most everything they do.
Here is where the responsibili-
ty comes in. As influential peo-
ple; as leaders to some degree,
all of us must be constantly vi-
gilant of everything we do, say,
and subscribe to in order that
those who are watching us for
guidance will not be led astray.
This individual responsibility
to society can also be applied to
the business life of a community
as well. Every business man has
a responsibility to his communi-
ty. If he fails to discharge that
responsibility others will immi-
tate him and sooner or later the

Fayette Co. makes
fertilizer tests
County Agent, W. G. Johnson,
reports that Fayette County is
one of nine counties taking part
in the fertilizer test program of
Texas Agricultural Extension
Service in cooperation with the
Tennessee Valley Authority.
County farmers taking part in
this program In the county are:
Walter Schaefer, West Point;
Roy Klump, Round Top; Eldon
Knape, Swiss Alp; Truette Par-
ker, Muldoon; Earnest Radenz,
Waldeck; Robert Lehmann, War-
da; Milton Koenning, Winches-
ter; Charles Rightmer, Muldoon
and Adolph Masek of Flatonia.
County Agent Johnson also
reports that the most efficient
insect control in stored grain is
by fumigating the shelled grain
in a bin that needs to be air
tight enough to contain the fu-
migent. Leaflet 217, “Stored
Grain Insects” will furnish fur-
ther information.
entire community dies.
Another way of saying it is
that a chain is only as strong as
its weakest link.
GET RICH QUICK
From time immemorial there
have been men who have devised
schemes to get-rich-quick. And
from time immemorial there
have been those who thought it
could be done by various sch-
emes.
Most of these schemes are no-
thing more than that designed to
take advantage of the unaware
and uninformed. The Rotary
Club, some years back, came out
with the four-way test that
seemed to get about as close to
truth as one can come. One of
the tests included was this: ‘‘Is
it fair to ail concerned?”
It would seem to this humble
columntator that this would be
a good test to apply to some of
these schemes. Is it beneficial
and helpful to my fellowman?
Will he benefit by it as well as
I? Is it fair to all concerned?
One of the things we learned
very early in life is that you
cannot contradict God’s Law and
win.
Scientists tell us that for eve-
ry action there is a reaction;
mathematicians tell us that all
equations must balance; what
you take away from one side
must be taken away from the
other also; what is added to one
side must also be added to the
other.
Most of the get-rich-quick
schemes can be weighed on the
laws of science and mathema-
tics. If they fail these tests they
are no good. For, the God of the
Universe is also the God of
science and mathematics.

Herbert Noak
is awarded
service plaque
A plaque commemorating 30
years of friendly relations was
presented here today to Mr. Her-
bert Noak Of the Texas Garage
by J. C. Jolley, San Antonio
District Manager for the Good-
year Tire & Rubber Company.
The award is symbolic of the
long association between the two
companies. The plaque shows
the dealership’s name which is
embossed in bronze across the
top of the black walnut panel &
a medallion showing the num-
ber 30, is attached in the center
of the panel. ^
Since the Texas Garage was
founded by Etzel, Roski and
Noak 30 years ago, the dealer-
ship has conducted an aggres-
sive sales program firmly esta-
blished on rendering service to
the customer.
In accepting the award Mr.
Noak pointed out that one of the
most' important factors in the
building of the Texas Garage
business developed by Mr. Noak
has been its emphasis on service
and careful and prompt atten-
tion to each customer.
Mr. Noak says that he and his
organization intend to continue
to build their business on the
basis of seeing that customers get
the maximum amount of service
and value out of the products
•they sell and that they will con-
tinue to emphasize service—a
practice which has long been a
trademark for the Texas Gar-
age.
