INOV is the practical time to check up your
heating equipment while winter is still "around the
corner.” Don’t let obsolete or inadequate heating rob
you of a pleasant indoor climate. Improved gas heat-
ing equipment and your dependable gas service will
give yod care-free, inexpensive comfort at the touch
of a match and you’ll find just the type
heater to fit your particular need on dis-
play at your gas company or appliance
dealer?
If this were a gasless community, the
next order of business would be laying
in a supply of coal or wood. Of course,

pour dependable gas service makes this fuss and
bother unnecessary. All through the summer months
your gas company has been "keeping your fuel serv-
ice faithful”—improving facilities so that you may
have the safety and security of a dependable natural
gas supply again this winter.
An ample gas supply has been provided
... pipe lines and distributing lines have

fully perfected to assist you in stopping

similar promotional games of
chance in the retail trade. How-

which merit or skill are the de-

From a reading of many
newspapers, We learn there a|>-
pears to be an epidemic of ra-
bies among dogs sweeping the
rural sections of the state. The
country is overrun with many
worthless canines. A valuable
w^atch dog, children’s pet or
hunting dog should be vaccinat-
ed against this disease for the
protection afforded the owner
and his family, to say nothing
of the neighbor’s children and
live stock. All others should
be dispatched via shotgun.
In an effort to save valuable
corn and a supply none to plen-
tious, some farmers are killing
their meat hogs and placing
them on cold storage, reports
one df our correspondents. With
cold storage available. The
Times has often w mdered why
many farm families, do not
have fresh meat available thru-
out the year.

Three lives snuffed out in La-
mar county Sunday night by a
head-on collision of automobiles
and three badly hurt. The
Times man saw one of those
cars in a Paris garage and it
indicated a terrific impact. Peo-
ple do not appear to fully real-
ize the destructive force of the
high-powered automobiles now’
being built, nor to appreciate
the danger of the speed at .
which they are traveling. En-
cased in steel and glass and en-
tirely comfortable, they dash
along the narrow highways,
passing and overtaking other
cars at speeds greater than our
fastest passenger trains. The
death and injury list has grown
by leaps during the past two
years and will continue to do
so until we awake to the fact
that 45 miles an hour is fast
enough. Even that speed is
too great for the slow-motion-
ed, slaw-thiinking driver.
The beautiful Blue Bonnet is
Texas’ official state flower. Mil-
Mona of them grow wild over
the central part of the state
and as far north as Dallas, but
in this section plantings * are
necessary.. There will be many
visitors to our Centennial in
1936, and they will all be look-
ing for our fields of 'Blue Bon-

AMENDMENTS
(Continued from Page Three)
to 1940, for the punpose of cal-
culating the amount of money
which can be raised from these
sources, the population is de-
termined by adding aech year
one-tenth of the population in-
crease which did occur during
the previous ten-year period.
The amendment does not seek
to limit in any way the amount
of money which the State may
collect from fees paid by stu-
dents to state educational in-
stitutions or from rentals, bon-
uses and royalties obtained
from public lands and from
other public property.
During the year 1932 and the
year 1933, the period when
there was, of course, nd limit-
ation in the Constitution the
sitate actually collected from
jthe sources which this amend-
ment seeks to limit $141,000,-
If this amendment is
adopted, under the population
scale there could be collected
from these sources which the
amendment seeks to limit $148,-
000,000 during the biennium
1936-37. Over a ten-year per-
iod the sources of revenue
w’hich this amendment does not
seek to limit have produced an
average of approximately $43,-
AU pledges 000,000 every two years. There-
now fore, if this figure remains con-
ov«..v the amendment is
| adapted, it will mean that dur-
ing the biennium 1936-37 the
total amount of money which
the Legislature could expend
would be the $148,000,000 plus
the $43,000,000, or a grand to-
tal of $191,000,000.
If you believe it is desirable
to write into the Constitution
a limit of the power of the leg-
islature to levy taxes and to
expend public funds, and if you
believe that this is a reasonable
limit, then you should vote for
this amendment. If one the
other hand, you believe that
the Constitution should not car-
roe. ’ ___________

explanation of the constitution-
al amendments which wiH be
voted upon at the November
Election. In straight, simple
language, C. A. Gay, an author-
ity upon such subjects, explains
their meaning. Every voter
should inform himself upon the
provisions of each amendment
and be able to ca*t an intelli-
gent ballot.
About the fir-t we> k in Sep-
tember, we believe it The
Times predicted that local gins
would turn out 2,500 bales.

interview’s with gin operators,

lowing that prediction,

2,000. The gnn report printed

In celebrating its sixtieth
birthday the Mt. Vernon Optic-
Herald' came out last week with
a special edition of 36 pages,
filled with interesting inform-
ation concerning Mt. Vernon
and Franklin county. Adver-
‘isers giving it hearty support
made the edition possible. Any
issue of the Optic-Herald is in-
teresting and the big birthday
edition moreso. The paper was
established in 1874. For forty
years it was published by
Charles R. Devall and since his
death three years ago has been
published by his son, Charles
R. Devall Jr.

Barn) Smith, editor otf the
Farmersville Times, is in high
spirits. He and The Times man
have locked horns in several
golf games, which. resulted in
victory for the Shock Absorbr
of this column. In Dallas re-
cently, following press day at
the Fair, Douglas Hawley of
the Times Herald arranged for
a continuation of the contest at
Walnut Hills course. Having
neither s<piked shoes which en-
abled us to keep our footing,
nor our own clubs we were ac-
customed to u-ing, S. A. tried
to dissuade Smith upon that
particular occasion. He insist-
ed, and the game was conclud-
ed by Smith winning the eight-
eenth or final hole and the
game by sinking a twenty-foot
putt. Such luck some birds
can have! Mr. Hawley and Dr.
Joe Cooper helped make up the
foursome — Hawley teaming
with Smith against the Doctor
