FRIDAY, DEC. 19, 1919
A newspaper, in speaking of a
deceased citizen, said: “We knew
him as old Ten Per Cent.—The
more he haci the less he spent—
the more he got the less he lent
—he’s dead—we don’t know
where he went; but if his soul to
heaven is sent-he’ll own the
harps and charge ’em rent.”
The editor of the Red River
County News has finally admitted
that Deport has the best staple
cotton market in Lamar County,
and gives as a reason that
Deport is partially in Red River
County. If he will make a
similar declaration concerning
land, both for Lamar and Red
River Counties we will be sat
isfied.
The Times is In receipt of an
advertisement from a certain
mail order house offering Its
stock for sale. This concern
s large, successful one. and is
not compelled to go out into the
highways and byways to sell its
stock, but their idea is to place
a few shares with the farmers
over the country to be used as
bait. They expect this scheme
to bring them more business,
and in a measure to vanquish
the prejudice against them
which the newspapers have
created. No mail order house
can buy space in The Deport
Times at any price. They pay
no taxes in this town or country,
help build no roads, schools or
churches, contribute nothing to
our poor and needy—in short
they are parasites which suck
the life blood of small towns and
villages—taking every cent they
can and putting nothing back
into them.
An Appropriate Christmas Gift
From The Paris News
An exchange laments the fact
that baldness is on the increase
among the men, and that very
few women have tine suits of
hair these days. It is deplorable,
but so long as the old sots con
tinue to drink all the hair tonics
how can we expect much in the
way of hairsute adornment.—
Hooey Grove Signal.
If the fuel situation gets much
worse in this country it will be
unwise for the preachers to
stress the heating facilities of
hades when trying to turn people
away from that region. When a
fellow’s teeth are chattering and
his feet are aching from cold, ex
oessive heat holds out no terrors
for him.—Honey Grove Signal.
Vickers and Ladd of Minter,

Worth yesterday.

George Alexander 121 7 acres of
the S. Roland survey two miles
northwest of Pattonville for $18,-
255, of which amount $15,000 was

W. A. Nobles has received a
! letter from Dallas informing him

an accident resulting in a muscle
of his foot being broken, on ac-
count of which he was unable to
