Mr. Lawrence H. Dainger-
field who is in charge of the
federal weather bureau in
Houston told the Houston-
Post Dispatch that on last
Monday Hallettsville wras the
hottest place in this country.
He says he stopped in Hallet-
tsville while returning from
an inspection trip to South-
west Texas and he took a
reading of ^temperature and
found it to be95. The Herald’s
devil knew that it w as warmer
than usual that day, but had
no time to rest and consult a
thermometer, so is glad that
the U. S. government has in-
formed him just how-, ht)t it in
fact was. This March will fgo

premiums to the amount of

ing your blood or nerves nor
j by cleaning your system of
i impurities. Excellent as these
processes may be as conducive
to good health, they will not
rid you of that harmful sto-
mach acid. To do this quickly
safely and surely, you should
take a little “Pace’s Diapep-
sin” after eating or when pain
is felt. This not only gives
quick relief by instantly neu-
tralizing stomach acid, but
soothes and heals your acid
inflamed stomach lining.
“Pape’s Diapepsin” is sold
by all druggists at 60 cents a
package, and is used by mil-
lions because it is not a “cure-
all medicine” which pretends
to remedy a hundred and one
ills—“Pape’s Diapepsin” stops
indigestion instantly because
it removes the cause.

I—Proven Merit since 1889—^
The following letter which
will be of interest to his many
friends here was received by
Mr, August Eilers from his
brother Prof. Wm. Eilers, for-
mer resident of our city who
is now’ connected with the
State Dept, of Education as
Rural School Supervisor.
Lamesa, Texas,
March 24th, 1928.
Dear August;
I received a letter from you
Christmas and wanted to ans-
wer it at that time, but neg-
lected it.
1 am finishing up my last
assignment for this session and
have been .away from home
now nearly seven\ weeks. I
had eleven countie^ with 131
schools to inspect bn this trip.
I’ll finish Dawson county next
Wednesday and then have se-
ven schools in Glascock coun-
ty. to inspect, before going
back home.
The section I have been m
this time is called the South
Plains country.
In some of the counties here
like Lubbock, they have fine
schools and fine farms, but
those touching New Mexico
have too much sand. However
the schools in the entire sec-
tion are pretty good. In the
counties along, New Mexico,
they still have a great many
prairie dogs and many of them
have their holes right on the
road. I have seen as many
as ten* at one time running
towards their holes while w'e
were _ driving along. Some of
them would run to their holes
and then bark at us.
Good many people out there
still live in dug-out, some in
full doug-outs, half-dugouts,
and three-quarter dug-outs.
These and shacks and resid-
ences are the living places.
Last w eek Wedensday, I had
an experience that could have
resulted in a serious accident
if Providence had not been
on our side. I was out inspect-
ing schools with a county
judge. There was a sandstorm
all over Yoakum county at the
time. A rancher had stfcetehed.
a four strand wire fence across
a big road. The judge was
driving at 40 or 45 miles an
hour. On account of the sand
storm, we didn’t see the wire
until we were right at it. The
judge didn’t have time to che-
ck the car and we went right
on thru breaking every strand.
While I was in TahokaDn
Lynn county, I noticed a Zap-
pe real estate company. 1 was
told that Zappe of Shiner had
sold a good deal of land her*
for Green and some that he
himself owned.
I hope you and Ada and
Joe are all still in good
health.
Hoping to hear , from you
soon, I remain,
Your brother.
