Under direction of Dr. F. L.
Williams, chairman of the SMU
Extension Division, workshop ‘ses-

in a workshop on child growth and
development are Mrs. Kenneth Ken-
nedy, Eighth Grade teacher, Mrs.

Seventh Grade teacher.
In 1931, she came to Grand Saline to make her
home with Mrs. Alsup, her sister, and the late J. C.
Alsup.
It was in Grand Saline she met her first misfor-
tune in health, but “her cheerfulness, her courage
and her stoicism won her the admiration of all who
knew her,” Mrs. Alsup wrote this week. She left
here about five years ago only to sustain a fracture
to the other hip at the Tennessee home of Mrs.
Campbell.

general assembly should balance
the budget.

By 1860, many papers had adopt-
ed the editorial page as a regular
department of the newspaper.
There were no Chinese-language
newspapers in America until 1900.
An early argument against free
speech in newspapers was tha*t “a
newspaper makes the multitude too
familiar with the actions of their
superiors.”
The first newspaper published in
the United States was Benjamin
Harris, whose first and only issue
in Boston was promptly suppressed
Lecause of certain reflections on
Governor Bradstreet.
There were 160 foreign-language
daily newspapers in the United
States in 1914.

Mrs. Harris, a sister of Mrs. J. C. Alsup of the]
Juliettfe Fowler home, Dallas, and Miss Cl«
Billingsley of Alpine, uses a wheel chair mostll
her household movements. SiEL_
About the only time she shows any signs of irrita-
tion is when she fails to receive her Grand Saline
Sun on time, Mrs. Jarvis reported. She admonished
Mr. and Mrs. Jarvis to be sure they passed the woid
along to The Sun.
Born June 29, 1858, in Sequatchie Valley, Tenn.^
a beautiful mountain region, the large Billingsley
family moved later to south of Nashville in the blue
grass country. Despite her mother’s death, she help-
ed her father rear the small children and received
a public school education and attended Burritt Col-
lege. She came to Texas to teach school and then
took over the rearing of more children, those of a
dead sister. After her marriage to S. L. Harris they
lived on a ranch near Prescqtt, Ariz., and in 1913
he died. e*
