“In building my shelves I used
four-inch material which we had on

one inch apart and an inch space

Ijong before Midland was an oil
town, it was famed throughout the
middle west as the source of fine
stocker and feeder cattle. It ship-
per each year thousands of head
of fine Herefords to Illinois, Iowa
and Kansas f&edlots.
This year, notwithstanding the
, dire predictions of Washington
brain trusters, the West Texas cat-
tle country has forgotten about.
1 the dusters of last summer, th£
rains have put the range in splen-
did condition, and government buy-
ing of distressed cattle has culled
out the “Model T" cows, as the
cowmen call them, leaving the
herds in the finest condition in
years.

Several weeks ago, Clarence
Scharbeaur, Claude Duffey, Sher-
iff Oddie Francis, Fred Turner and
several others decided to organize
& Midland fair, which would pro-
vide a suitable annual market for
Midland cattle. They bought a 110
acre tract adjoining the city, built
a grandstand seating 5,000 people,
a rodeo arena, and a race track
and show pens for cattle, as well
as an exhibit hall for agricultural
products. They sent invitations to
big cattle buyers throughout the
country, and many responded and
advised they wauld be on hand this
week for the cattle sales.
The fair was formally opened by
Col. E. O. Thompson, railroad com-
mission chairman, last Saturday,
and a rodeo performance featuring
imany West Texas stars who are
called all over the nation to show
their skill, was staged. The per-
formers were mostly “home folks"
to the spectators here in this cat-
tle country, and boots and spurs
were as common in the grandstand
as In the arena.

Senior Candidate
Martha Sandlin was elected by
the senior class as the most popu-

She always wears a smile and has
a friendly word for everyone. Be

Spelling Match

One morning George Ballard was
late for school. Miss Clifton ask-
ed him what was the matter. He
said: “There was a horse fell on
the corner and he was waiting to
see a horse doctor, but after all
it was just a man.
One day Flora Davis went to the
store for some bird seed. The gro-
cer said: “Is it for your mother”"

paper publisher, echoed the same
sentiment although he was too
busy “covering" the fair opening
to talk long. His brother, the
•county judge, talked optimistically
and visitors from many towns who
came to help Midland celebrate, re-
ported West Texas in fine shape
and extremely optimistic over the
future.
The state highway commission
this week put in another lick for
prosperity and employment, let-
ting $2,500,000 worth of highway
contracts on Tuesday. The engi-
neering staff is rapidly shaping up
plans for additional projects, so
that a continuous program of let-
ting may be carried out through-
out the fall and winter, putting
workers on payrolls as the relief
program ends.

Already rumors of a third spe-
cial session are heard among mem-
bers of both houses. The fee offi-
cer’s salary bill, many legislators
claim, can not be passed at the cur-
rent second session. It is a fact
that this measure is subjecting the
legislators to a terrific amount of
"heat” from county political rings
throughout the state. There is no
more powerful lobby than the
county bosses, who, while they
work quietly, are probably more
feared for theif political influence
than any other group who work on
legislators.

Resignation of Gordon Griffin,
chief petroleum engineer for the
i allroad commission, to accept pri-
vate employment at a salary near-
ly twice that paid him: by the state
is another example of the difficulty
of retaining good men In all de-
partments. The commission has
lost seven petro’eum engineers via
this route in tr/o'**"n:ri. Actually,
the state is operating a ’“training
school" for youn- employees, who
as soon as they become proficient,
are grabbed off by private busi-
ness. Griffin has turned down at
least four previous offers of better1
pay to remain with the vtate, ■ i
,by a score of 24 to 7. The match
was a result of a challenge made
by the seniors. The winning of
the match added exftra votes for
the senior’s most popular girl.
Baseball Game
Tuesday the seniors and juniors j
played a game of ’ baseball, the
juniors having challenged them to
a match. Much interest was exhi-
bited and there was plenty of com- (
petition throughout the game. The |

he did it. When, after what seemed an

upon the derrick floor.
Out of the well-mouth finally slid
the fishing tool; it stopped, hung mo-

"Lucky, nothing. You’ve got sense."
