has operated are getting free lunch-
es. Their number has risen to a
point that it will difficult for the

providing lunches for needy school
children are asked to contact Mrs.
J. M. Stone, cafeteria manager,

Reader's Digest
Book Contains
Yarn From Mathis
A new book just published by
the Reader’s Digest folks, called
the “Reader’s Digest of Wit and
Humor,” has an anecedote origin-
ating in Mathis.
The little squib is quoted from
the Wall Street Journal. Here’s
how it reads:
“Driving through Mathis, Texas,
early one morning, Charles A. Sch-
nable Jr., a part-time salesman of
vitamin pills banged into another
auto. Damage to the other car was
just over $100, and Schnable settled
the debt on the spot by giving
the driver a six months’ supply
of his vitamins. While waiting for
the local justice of the peace to
awaken and rule on possible traffic
violations, the zealous Mr. Schnable
sold the arresting policeman more
pills. The judge fined Schnable $5,
but bought a supply of his product.
The judge and his daughter are
now dealers for Mr. Schnable’s
pills.”
