earlier than five days nor more than
ten days from the date of its filing:
County Clerk must post notice of
such hearing and upon said hearing,
if the County Judge finds that the
facts set out in the petition are true
and that the issuance of a license will
r.ot come within any of the prohibi-

Judge W. F. Bogiess left Friday
for Washington to present the code
of the Texas Wool and Mohair Ware-
house Association to NRA officials,
k Judge Boggess was chosen as the
delegate of the Association at a meet-
ing Wednesday in San Angelo. I he
meeting was devoted to the accumu-
lation of statistics as to the amount
of wool and mohair that the 22 mem-
bers of the association had handled
since the 1928 including 1933 and in |
securing figures on capital invest-
ment for those period? of time. The
code was not released but it was said
that a 20-cent wage scale would be
asked.
Adoption of the code would force
all warehouses to fedlow the rules
and it was the belief of J. Miles
O’Daniel. who presided, that all ware-
houses of the state would be willing to
join when the ccyitents of the code
were made known. Warehouses who
do not like the code would no doubt
be given an ‘opportunity to express
themselves before the code is made ef-
fective. Buyers' warehouses might be
permitted to function under the Bos-
ton dealers code.

Every houeswife and patron of stores
in this city are urged to become an
NRA Consumer—sign one of the
pledge cards at every NRA merchants
store, and do her part in putting over
this great national campaign to end
the depression.
Signers of these pledge cards pro-
mise to do their part by patronizing
stores displaying the Blue Eagle, and
helping the merchants hire more men,
and banishing unemployment^nd hard
times. "Buy Under the Blue Eagle"
is the motto of the administration.
So sign up this week at the stores
which you patronize. Practically every
business in town is under the Blue Ea-
gle, and they deserve your support
for their sacrifice. Put over the cam-
acres may use the gas for extracting
gasoline if no market is made avail-
able.
Spanish may lie taught in elemen-
tary schools in counties along the
Mexican border with cities of more
than 5,000 and Latin and Greek may
be taught in high school. College tui-
tion fees are raised and students from
ither states will be required to pay the
same fees charged Texas students in
their home states. Abolition of tea-
chers institutes to save money is au-
thorized.
Labor laws becoming effective
strengthen the penalty clause in the
lod law against employment of wo-
men more than nine hours a day or
54 hours a week: require payment of
vrevailing local wage on public work
and prescribe fees for barber examina-
tions and shop inspection.

NEW FISHING AND HUNTING
LICENSE NOW ON SALE
TALKIES BAR ALL “FAKES!"
SAILMES, TEARS REAL NOW
New hunting and fishing licenses,
which must be obtained by hunters
and fishermen have been received in
Rocksprings. They are now on sale at
the Hough Drug Store. Rocksprings

Fake acting, which made numerous
numbskulls popular favorites during
the days of silent pictures, died mis-
erably with the advent of talkies, ac-
cording to Paul Sloanc, film director.

ed by actors who couldn’t act, to
make them appear great artists.
There was the actress, he reveals,
who had to have her feet tickled so
she could smile through her tears.
The tears were inspired by an onion
in her handerchief.
There was the actor, who, to regis-
tered pain over the tact that his wife
had left him, had his valet twist his
leg till it hurt.
There was the actress, who, to re-
gister surprise, had to have a gun fir-
ed off behind her.
There were actors and actresses
both, who, to registerd anger, had to
get in a scrap with the director.
When talkies came along, how-
ever, and offstage tricks couldn’t be
employed, because they'd register on
the sound track, the fake actors had
to leave, and genuinely talented play-
ers substituted, Sloanc explains.
“Terror Aboard,” Sloan's latest dir-
ectorial effort, centers around a fiend
who attempts to kill off every one
of the passengers aboard a large, lux-
urious yacht which is steaming thru
the Pacific—every one but the wo-
man with whom he is in love. One
by one they die, each in a more hot-
rible, more gruesome fashion.
The picture reaches a breathless cti-
of each year.
Applicant, and if partnership, each
partner, must make affidavit that he
is a law-abiding tax paying citizen of
the state of Texas: over twenty-one
years of age and has not been con-
victed of felony for two years prior to

have resided in the county in which
petition is made for a period of more
than two years next preceding the fil-
ing of said petition. Petitioners may
not have contirbuted to any candi-
date's campaign fund for two years
prior.
If corporation, then the president
or manager must make the above af-
fidavit and the corporation must have
complied with all the corporate laws
of this State. No manufacturer or dis-
tributor may own any interest in any
retail store or in the premises occupi-
ed by same.
The amount of license fees to the
State are as follows: Manufacturer
$5110.00 per annum. General Distri-
butor $200.00; Branch business of Gen-
eral Distributor $50.00. Local Distri-
butor $50.00. Retail Dealer (consumed
on premises) $100.00. Retail Dealer
(not to he consumed on premises) $50.
County and City may each levy one-
half the above amounts. In addition
each dealer must also secure the Fed-
I eral license which cost $20.00 a year

distributors. Application for the Fed-

ty Clerk's office.
