Surprise Birthday Dinner
The price of cigarettes in McKin-
ney took an upward turn Wednes-
day with the one-cent-per-pack ad-
ditional tax voted, by the special
session of the Legislature going in-
to effect. The new tax is to finance
improvements in the mental and
state hospitals.
Most places selling cigarettes are
getting 20 cents a package, with a
few selling packages at 19 cents and
others 19 or two packages for 37
cents. A few stores reported their
prices at 21 cents a package.

Justice of the Peace Sid Williams
called in to leave his Vital Statistics
report. The judge has been busy
over there in that office for a long
time and knows everything that
needs attention. This Vital Sta-
tistics report is an important job and
should be accurately kept.
The judge tells us farmers are
putting in complaints because of so
many dogs chasing their stock. Own-
ers are going to demand damages if
the dogs are not controlled.
District Attorney Worden wishes
to remind the public that this is not
only a nuisance but also causes dam-
age. He is asking the co-operation
of citizens in controlling their dogs.

KIRBY PAGE
The Ministerial Association of Mc-
,Kinney and the service clubs are
joining with the American Friends
Service Committee in presenting
Kirby Page, noted author and lec-
turer, in a two-session conference
on “The Way of Jesus In This Hour
of World Crisis” in McKinney on
Friday, March 3. There will be a
united service clubs dinner at 6 p.m.
in the First Christian Church and
an open meeting at 7:30 p.m. in the
First Methodist phurch. This is part
of the world-wide, non-sectarian
program of relief and reconciliation
which gained the 1947 Nobel Peace
Prize for the Quaker organization.
The United Nations recognized
the impartial and effective work of
the committee when it invited the
Friends to administer an extensive
refugee relief program in southern
Palestine on behalf of the UN. Pur-
suing its course of reconciliation in
tension areas, the committee is able
to continue a medical program in
the heart of the disputed area in
China. Other relief and reconstruc-
tion projects are being carried out
in 12 countries of Europe and Asia.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla., Feb. 28
—A jungle-born leopard that could-
n’t stand confinement made its last
escape Tuesday night—in death.
The tawny, blackspotted cat,
which had spent more than sixty
hours on the loose after a sensation-
al leap to freedom last Saturday,
died in the Lincoln Park Zoo infirm-
ary.
The end came fifteen hours after
the animal returned to the zoo and
ate two pieces of drugged meat.
Mayor Allen Street said death was
caused by an overdose of narcotics
used to treat the meat bait.
The leopard had been in a deep
coma most of the day, and Dr. W. D.
Bowerman, veterinarian, said it was
a “very sick animal.” He gave it a
stimulant and it recovered enough
to growl a few times and try to get
up. The veterinarian said eating
two pieces of drugged meat may
have been TOO MUCH even for a-
HEALTHY LEOPARD.
A zoo attendant, Roy Roberts, was
making a routine check and found
it ailing and took it out to the iron-
bound box and pumped its legs to
try to restore circulation.
Only a few weeks ago it was cap-
tured in India. Louis Gebel, an ani-
mal dealer at Thousand Oaks, Calif.,
sold it and a mate to the zoo here
for $400 a piece.
From the moment it arrived here
it was a snarling, ferocious beast in
unceasing revolt. Put in a 14- foot-
deep pit, it leaped against the wall
with such vigor that Zoo Director
Julian Frazier moved it to another
one twenty .feet deep.
But time after time it hurled it-
I self against* the wall of the sand-
j" ~~~ 1 p.m.
| Saturday, it went over the top.
Frazier and some thirty other at-
tendants and peace officers poked
through the zoo area with cocked
shotguns and rifles, but it was a
fruitless hunt.
Sunday the search became a major
operation, with United States Ma-
rine reservists using walkie-talkie
radios as they tried to stalk the
crafty cat. But amateur hunters and
Sunday drivers crowded the roads
and woods and stymied the rifle-
men. <
The leopard was “sighted” sev-
eral times but never stayed around I
long enough to be shot. These were '
uneasy hours . . . people starting at
shadows . . . mothers keeping their
children indoors.
Dogs made most of the news Mon-
day as imported lion-hunters took
up the chase. But even with a
helicopter and the Marines again,
the hunters finshed a poor second’
On an off-chance, Frazier spread
the doped-up horsemeat around the
zoo Monday night. About 2 a.m., a
piece was missed near the leopard
pit, and a quick search turned up
the cat, groggy and weak, in a tun-
nel leading, to the pit.
Frazier, covered by riflemen, las-
soed a hind paw, and the beast was
tugged and pulled into position for
a strong box to be slipped over its
body. The door was latched and
nailed, and the leopard hunt was all
finished.

Burglars raided the home of H. V.
Rutherford and wife, two miles
north of Anna, Sunday night. Taken
from the home were a table model
Motorola radio, a 12-guage double-
barrel shotgun? with a leather stock
cover and some bowls of food which
had been left on the table.
Sheriff Brawley said that the
thieves gained admittance by cut-
ting the screen.
There have been several reports
of such burglaries, Sheriff Brawley
said. Recently the Bill Stogdill
home east of McKinney was enter-
ed and a rifle, an iron and several
smaller articles taken.
Sheriff Brawley urges people in
the country to report suspicious
characters that may come to a farm
home and, when they find someone
at home, inquire if there is a house
for rent on the place or some sim-
ilar question, which is aimed to
cover their real mission. Sheriff
Brawley asks people to take the
! number on the automobile and re-
port such incidents at once.

Stray Dogs Chasing
Farmers’ Livestock
Following a long illness, Henry
W. Warden, one of McKinney’s most
'■ prominent and highly esteemed citi-
| zens, sank peacefully • to rest in the
City - County Hospital Thursday
morning at 8:40 o’clock.
Mr. Warden had been associated
with the Collin County National
Bank since June, 1902 — 48 years.
We know of no one in McKinney
who exceeds that wonderful record
of service with one firm. He began
as teller and was stepped up to
serve as cashier, active vice-presi-
dent and when Thomas Johnson re-
signed, Mr. Warden succeeded him
as president. He served also as
president of the North Texas District
Bankers Association and also as its
treasurer.
Henry Warden was born at Fitz-
hugh Mills Aug. 9, 1875. He was a
^son of the late F. M. (Marion) and
Nancy Candis Warden. He was a
member of the First Presbyterian
Church, an elder and clerk of the
