Brownwood about 1903, engaging
in the land business, and later

9. In order to make this show as
much of an educational project as
possible, all McCulloch county |
breeders are invited to exhibit their |
good livestock at this show. No
prizes will be offered for these ex- |
hibits, but pens will be provided
for all sheep and hogs, and also
convenient places for the cattle.
Anyone who wants to enter any
exhibits, please notify County
Agent Prewit or Chamber of Com-
merce office, giving number and
kind of livestock.
This is important, since the man-
agement must know beforehand
how many pens and places to pro-
vide.
The body was shipped to Brown-
wood, where interment took place
at 3:00 o’clock in the afternoon.
Concerning the last rites, the
Brownwood Bulletin gives the fol-
lowing report:
Funeral services for Torn Bell,
who died Thursday night at Corpus
Christi, were held from the St.
Johns Episcopal church at 2 o’clock
Saturday afternoon with Dr. John
Power, rector, officiating. Burial
was made in Greenleaf cemetery.
The body arrived in Brownwood
Saturday morning on the Santa Fe
from Corpus Christi.
Mr. Bell was once Mayor of
Brownwood and for many years
was in the cotton business here. He
moved to Corpus Christi several
years ago. He is survived by his
wife and one daughter, neither of
whom was able to attend services
here today because of sickness.
Pall bearers at Mr. Bell’s funeral
were: E. B. Henley, Sr., Walter
Early, G. C. Duncan, W. R. Rob-
erts, W. D. Armstrong and D. S.
Camp. Honorary pall bearers were
Messrs. J. W. Taber, R. P. Nunn,

Bedouins Prize Camel
Above All Possessions
A car is considered worth
more than a wife to Bedouins.
Their incomes, sometimes their
lives, depend upon their camels. A
camel which can travel without
food or water for ten or twelve
days is valuable indeed. But some
will do so for fifteen or even twen-
ty days. The saddles for these
prized beasts are the finest that
money can buy. A man who has
four or five camels Is considered
well-to-do. One who has fifty la
considered wealthy, lie has many
servants, and lives on the income
of his camels.
The rivalry between chieftains
who have 500 or COO camels is just
as intense as it often was among
the cattle barons of the West.
Sometimes one of the sheiks will
hire Bedouin bandits to steal an-
other's camels and start a feud
that lasts for years.
Camels eat a thorny weed called
gavan. The weed 1c so dry that

Years’ Passing Bringa
Interest in Obituaries
“Ono thing more reminds me
that I am growing old," the gray-
haired man remarked. "It Is the
class of news that Interests me In
the papers. There v is a time when
I never thought of looking at the
death notices and the obituary
columns. I was too busy with oth-
er topics. Then, slowly almost
Imperceptibly, I began glancing at
the obituaries In the home newspa-
per which I had been receiving
for years. There was scarcely a
week went by without an article
about the passing of some one I
had known when I was a boy.
Then just as gradually the necro-
logical news took on a more inti-
mate aspect. I found myself read-
ing of those with whom I played
when a youngster, or with whom I
was associated as a youth. These
somber items were at first few and
far between, but as the years
drifted by they became more fre-
quent, and I suddenly found my-
self reading obituaries before I did
the personals.”—Detroit News.
Concerning Trade Marks
The courts have said that a per-
son entering a field of endeavor al-
ready occupied by another should,
in the selection of a trade name or
trade mark, keep far enough away
to avoid all possible confusion.
Whether there is an infringement
of a trade mark- does not depend
upon the use of identical words,
nor on the question as to whether
they are so similar that a person
looking at one would be deceived
Into the belief that it was the oth-
er. The courts incline to hold that
infringement occurs if one adopts
a trade name or a trade mark so
like another in form, spelling or
sound that a person with a not
very definite or clear recollection
as to the real trade mark, is likely
to become confused or misled.
No Giants 200 Years Ago
They were little men in the
Eighteenth century. They were not
dreamers. They called themselves
practical, and considered them-
selves enlightened: they sneered at
visions. Such things as they did
were done in bits; their schemes
were carried out, if at all, an Inch
at a time. Pettiness was habitual
to them, originality almost un-
known. Denn Swift, who knew his
generation, once wrote of the kings
of the Lilliputians that he wns
"toller by almost the breadth of
my nall than any of his court,
which alone Is enough to strike an
awe to the beholders." Whales had
there been earlier, and later were
to be, but in the beginning of the
Eighteenth century the pool was
filled with pretty goldfish.—Donald
Barr Chidsey in “Marlborough.”
Barbed Wire Industry
The practical beginning of the
barbed-wire Industry was In the
patent Issued to Joseph F. Glidden
of De Kalb, III., in 1874. This pat-
ent was issued for barbed fence
wire. During the same year a pat-
ent was issued to Mr. Glidden and
Phineas W. Vaughan having a ma-
chine to manufacture it. The de-
velopment of the barbed-wire in-
dustry was accelerated by the in-
troduction of the mild steel. The
approximate production in the
United States, showing figures of
the years indicated, is as follows:
1874, 5 tons; 1880, 40,000 tons;
1890, 200,000 tons; 1924, 200,000
tons; 1927, 180,000.
Original Jury Funci a

said, writes Judge Robert H. Day
of the Ohio Supreme court, that

not to hear, but give, evidence.
They were the neighbors of the
parties and were presumed to
know when they came into court
the facts about which they were
to testify.
They were chosen by the sheriff
to represent the neighborhood. The
verdict was the sworn testimony of
the countryside.—Detroit News.
England’s Largest Home
Wentworth Woodhouse, Lord
Fitzwilliam’s “stately home,” Is the
largest private house in England.
So vast is It that even Its owners
have failed to explore all its re-
cesses. Lord Fitzwilliam’s Imme-
diate predecessor one day took a
notion to explore the basements,
and wandered without meeting a
soul. At last he came upon a
small boy, and asked him who be

and willlikely divert some of their
shipments to it. That brings the
issue to the good question of
whether the public good is to be
subordinated to that of existing
railway lines. This writer opines
that this will not be done if the
public can protect itself.
Texas Fair Record.
When a Nebraska congressman
asserted in Congress that his state
fair had a larger attendance than
that of any other State, the state-
ment was promptly challenged by
a member of Congress from Minn-
esota. Congressman Summers at
once produced the figures to show
that in both 1929 and 1928 the
Texas State Fair had a larger at-
ral population in sections of Texas

Cutting Out Carnivals.
In refusing to permit carnival
shows to use the city parks, Mayor
Chambers of San Antonio said:
“The carnivals do no good, but
much harm. The people of the city
do not receive value for the money
they give the shows." The carni-
vals were asking for permission to
show during San Antonio's spring
fiesta. Texas should rid itself of
strolling carnival shows.

NOTICE
Widen The Vision.
The Mission Enterprise, the
splendid paper that Cobb and Cobb
are publishing for Hidalgo county,
has at its masthead the words,
“For Mission, for Home, for
Schools and for Better Things.”
That is good as far as it goes, but
should be broadened by placing
"for Texas” after Mission. No
Texas community is big enough to
stand alone, and every community
should feel itself an important
part of the State . The omission
is just an oversight on the part
of Editor Cobb, who spends his
days and nights dreaming of the
future greatness of Texas, at least
when he is not at work to make
his dreams come true. Another ob-
jection to the Enterprise is that
it is too big for a busy columnist
to read “through.” But of that the
publishers will hardly complain.
Improving Poultry Flocks.

Fighting Development
It seems that the fight being
made by one of the leading Texas
railroads against the building of
the Kell road from Abilene
Cross Plains is largely because
Abilene shippers are subscribers
to the stock of the new railroad
made to exchange one pure-bred
egg for two eggs from mongrel
flocks. The chamber of commerce
has contracted for 100,000 or more
pure-bred eggs for this exchange
on this basis. Farmers will be en-
couraged to demonstrate for them-
selves that it pays to raise pure-
bred chickens in preference to the
