A report of their activities fol-
lows:
During the four years and three
months the patrolmen made 639
arrests; in each arrest a warrant
was filed and the total number of
fines collected from the involved
traffic violators was $9,496.00. The
average fine was about $12. Nine-
ty percent of those charged were
convicted, acquittals were about 2
per cent and 8 per cent of the cases
were dismissed or the defendant
failed to appear for trial.
The number of those fined may
seem large, but in 13,338 cases of
highway violations, warnings were
given or the matter was adjusted
without the filing of a complaint.
The above''violations are divided
as follows: Truck violations, over-
weight, overlength, and overwidth,
186; License violations, about 70
percent of these were switching li-
cense plates from one car to an-
other, 126; drunks 73; defective

In December, 1931, Patrolmen
Hornung and Dulin were stationed
at Fredericksburg by the State
Highway Commission. They have
received notice of a transfer in
the near future. During the time
on every occasion possible to speak
English in public. The one-act play
contest affords such an opportunity
in the most interesting manner. It
is revealed by the Christmas and
school closing programs held in the
various communities each year
that the people of our county are
not only lovers of the play, but
that they often display unusual
natural dramatic talent. The one-
act play serves a two-fold purpose,
therefore. It discovers and develops
such latent natural talent, and at
the same time affords a most ad-
mirable chance for the study and
use of our country’s language. If
the teachers in a school are too
busy and therefore not available
for coaching the one-act play, ac-
cording to the bulletin, the school
board can authorize some other per
son to do the coaching. It is hoped
that many schools can enter this
contest next year.

Irene Holm, Harper Demonstrator,
Plans Garden For Year.
Considerable interest is being
manifested in the Interscholastic
Legue literary contests throughout
the schools of Texas during this
Centennial year. No little of this
interest is due to the fact that,
whenever possible, the subjects for
these contests have been adapted to
the Centennial celebration. The sub
jects for essay writing, senior de-
clamation, extemporaneous speech,
debate, and even music are all sub-
jects which bring before the pub-
lic the glorious history of our
great state, the heroism of its pio-
neers, and the folklore and prob-
lems of the present. Each county
contest, therefore, in itself becomes
a Centennial program, disseminat-
ing forgotten, and oftentimes un-
known facts about Texas history
and literature.
For Gillespie county, the declam
ation contests will be held on the
night of March 20, at the Freder-
icksburg Public School Auditorium.
In order to facilitate the manage-
ment of this program, and to in-
sure its being carried out with the
“snap and bang” necessary on such
an occasion, participating schools
are urged to do their individual
eliminating of contestants early
enough to send in the names of
their entrants in the final contest

The patrolmen traveled a total
of 241,000 miles, on motorcycles in
carrying out their duties. They
removed 4,207 obstructions from
the highways. These obstructions j
are left usually by careless motor-.
ists and included rocks from the i
size of an apple to bales of cotton
and piles of lumber.
A total of 8 stolen cars were re-
covered, several of these -for fi-
nance companies. Ten cars were
confiscated for the State and Fed-
eral government for illegal trans-
portation of liquor. Practically all
these cases were made on personal
initiative and investigation and not
through information supplied by
others; that is, practically all these
violations were committed under
the observation of the patrolmen.

Ninety years ago the infant,
Fredericksburg, was born among
the hills, of Gillespie county. A
lusty infant, it grew apace as the
years flew by, until now in its
prime, Fredericksburg is a city of
note, “The Hub of the Hills,” a
city of which all Texas is proud.
The history of Fredericksburg is
unique and interesting. Its pioneer
homes, its unusual customs, and its
picturesque natural scenery make
it doubly so.
This year Fredericksburg High
School is dedicating its year book
to a man who has given his best
years to the schools of Gillespie
county. Its pages are crowded with
past history mingled with present
day happenings on the campus.
There are pictures galore of home,
people, scenes. In short, the annual
on this anniversary year will be a
fitting birthday present to Freder-
icksburg, a present that will do
honor to the city that the F. H. S.
students will always consider the
dearest in the world.—J. E.
