New Things
i
Give the people the good news of new things at advan-
tageous prices. They look to you, Mr. Merchant, for
this “store news” and* will respond to your messages.
Let us show you that
Every member of every family in this community is
interested in the news of the day. And no items are
read with keener relish than announcements of new
things to eat, to wear or to enjoy in the home.
Merchants of Deport have the goods and the desire to
sell them. The readers of The Times have the money
and the desire to buy. The connecting link is AD-
VERTISING.

In observance of the nine-
teenth anniversary of the or-
ganization of the Boy Scouts of
America, an extensive program
has been carried out by the
local troop this week. Sunday
night Dr. J. W. Hayden of Par-
is, addressed them at the local
Methodist Church and Monday
night the crowning feature of
the week, a L
quet, was held at the American
Legion hall.
Weldon Glover welcomed the
dads to the banquet. Dr. Ste-
phen H. Grant made the re-
sponse, after which a sumptious;
feed, served in tw’o courses by
Scout waiters was enjoyed by
more than fifty guests.
Talks were made4 by D. D.
Stringer, Rev. S. M. Dunnam,
Sam C. Holloway and Frank
Fuller, Lone Star Area Scout
executive, followed by J. C.
Barham, who introduced Dr.
W. M. Wright, pastor of the
First Baptist Church at Paris.
Dr. Wright gave an interest-
ing and entertaining address,
stressing the need and worth
of a closer relationship between
fathers and sons. His address
was eagerly listened to by those
present.
After the address of Dr.
Wright, fathers apd sons join-
ed hands around the table and
Rev. Dunnam dismissed the
gathering.
Alfred Dunn, J. C. Barham
and John A. Thompson were in j
charge of the arrangements for:
the banquet and the food was |
prepared by the mothers of the I
Scouts, thb expenses other than1
those which the Scouts them-)
selves bore by bringing food1
from their homes, being paid i
out of the Scout fund.
On Wednesday morning the!
chapel exercises at the school ]
auditorium were in charge ofj
the Scouts, with M. C. Barham ;
presiding. A very interesting,
program was rendered includ-;
ing the singing of a number of
patriotic songs, a talk by Rev.1
S. M. Dunnam, and a paper on
the history of the Scout move-*
ment by Melvin Jackson.
Telephone wires along Main
street are bing transferred to
new poles this week. The New
poles were put up some time
ago, but only a few wires had
been placed on them. When the
wires have all been strung on
the new poles the old ones are
to be taken down, according to
E. 0. Thompson, owner of the
Son and Dad ban- Deport telephone exchange.
Mr. Thompson states that
only a few of his wires were
broken by ice and snow during
1 the recent cold spell, as the
snow stopped just as it was be-
ginning to stick on them.
Mr. Nichols—How did Noah

Kemp, known as “the perpetual

studied at the university for
sixty years.
During his years of study he
acquired thirteen degrees. It
was said in university circles
that when he started as an un-
dergraduate he had no liking
for study and that a wealthy
relative, in order to urge him
on, left him $2,500 a year as
long as he remained in college.
Undergraduates for decades
called him "Doc” and confer-
