grinding for you the GUAR-'

Costs a little more than in-
ferior brands, but the in-

The Home of SUPREME Flour
SUPREME is not a “fussy”
• flour, over-priced because
of enormous selling ex-
pense. It is a flour that
stands up in quality-with
the best of them, has a re-
markable record for holding
its trade, and is sold at a
price based on the cost of
wheat plus a fair marginal
profit under economical
management.
k
During the last twelve months we have sold and exported direct to our customers in Holland and the West
Indies over one million pounds of flour; shows how far it goes both in distance and quality.

Following are extracts from
letters from some of American’s
greatest men on the value' of a
business education. Hon. Champ
Clark, Speaker of the House of
Representatives, Washington,
D. C., says; “Since I have been
elected Speaker I have had it
more thoroughly impressed on
me than ever before that a
throrough business college train-
ing is of exceeding importance.”
0. M. Dickinson, former Secre-
tary of War, Washington, D. C.,
‘ ‘Contemporaneously with taking
my general education, I took a
course in a business college and
found it of value to me, not only
generally, but in the practice of
law.” R. B. Glenn, Ex-Governor
of North Carolina: ‘ ‘I cheerfully
recommend to everyone a practi-
cal business education for their
children.” Oswald West, Ex-
Governor of Oregon: “The
modern business school plays a
large part in fitting young men
and women for their entrance
into the business world.” T. C.
Pickett, Representative from
Iowa: The value-even necessity
of a practical education to young
people today is so obvious that
no argument should be required
in support of it.” E. F. Nool,
Ex-Governor of Mississippi. ‘ ‘I
take pleasure in testifying to the
importance of a practical busi-
ness education, and to the
efficiency of a properly conduct-
ed business school in imparting
such knowledge.” C. N. Haskell,
Ex-Governor of Oklahoma: “I
consider practical business edu-
cation of the greatest import-
ance.” John W. Kern, United
States Senator: Everybody
ought by this time to understand
that business men and business
women need business education
on the same principle that a
doctor must have a. medical edu-
cation.” Joseph M. Cary,
Governor of Wyoming: “Too
much cannot be said in behalf of
a good commercial education.”
I do not believe that such an
education can be too highly rec-
ommended.”

Whiskey and Tuberculosis
Staunton, Va. News.
The National Association for
the Study and Prevention of
Tuberculosis reports there are
now 3,000 agencies in this coun-
try employed in the battle
against the white plague.
When the National Association
was first formed a dozen years
ago there were only 183 organ-
izations and institutions engaged
in this fight, the number having
increased 115 per cent in the
last five years.
One,of the most radical changes
in the treatment of the disease
in recent years is not only the
entire abandonment of the idea
that whisksy was beneficial in
the early stages of consumption,
but the generally accepted be-
lief now that alcohol „tends to
produce tuberculosis and is its
best ally.
The French physicians have a
saying that consumption is con-
tracted “across the bar.”
Physician declare that consump-
tion is much more frequent
among heavy drinkers than
among people of temperate
habits. Pulmonary consumption

is invariably found in cases
where persons die of acute
alcoholism.
By no meaCns all men whose
alcoholism has led to consump-
tion have been ill-intentioned.
Many workmen, of a cold
winter’s morning, will take their
dram before going to work, not
to satisfy a vicious appetite, but
in the hope of tiding their below-
par constitutions over another
day. And the stuff they do take
down!—fuel oil, wood alcohol
whiskey—“the kind of stuff you
put on old doors to scrape off the
paint with.” One must remem-
ber, too the concomitants of
whiskey in these circumstances—
insanitary habits, poverty, sun-
lessness, ill-ventilated hying
rooms, lack of nutrition, bad
food, wifely ignorance of how to
cook—and the lack of a living
wage. Also there is the bane-
ful property of stimulants when
taken into an empty stomach—
to give a transient sense of suf-
ficiency and to destroy the ap-
petite for food.
has rendered honorable service to
the State, both within the
borders of the State as attorney-
general and governor, and at
the National capitol as senator.
No man ever even suggested
such thing as graft or boodle in
connection with his name. While
he is an anti-prohibitionist, we
do not believe he has ever been
in the paid political employ of
the brewers for the purpose
corrupting the ballot and de
bauching the electorate. It will
be recalled that in 1912, in the
city of Dallas, before the State
Democratic Convention, Culber-
son uttered a memorable word,
the substance of which was, that
if the liquor machine didn’t keep
out of politics in Texas the Texas
people would put the liquor traf-
fic out of business. Culberson
belongs to the old class of anti-

Home and State.
Which shall it be and which
shall receive the support of the
prohibitionists? They are both
antis. Ordinarily the honest
conscientious prohibitionist does
not grow enthusiastic over the
candidacy of an anti, although,
forsooth, he may exercise his
liberty and vote for an anti on
occasion, as some did in the pri-
mary. While they are both
antis there is unquestionably
much difference between them.
We will be perfectly frank and
say that under present circum-
stances there is only one thing
for a good pro to do, or a good
citizen, pro or anti, who loves
the name of honor and Texas, to
do for that matter, and that is to
give undivided and hearty sup-
port to Culberson for re-election
as United States Senator. He
prohibitionists, who labor under
the erroneous impression that
the prohibition of the liquor
traffic some way or somehow
interferes with personal liberty.
Colquitt belongs to the modern
type of antis, who wear the
brass collar of the brewers and
do their bidding on all occasions.
He is a man in no way fit to be
thought of as United States
Senator. It would be nothing
short of a disgrace to Texas for
such a man to be elected. Col-
quitt’s vote consisted of the
three elements, the German vote
who are opposed to President
’Wilson and his foreign policies,
some American citizens mainly
on the interational border who
have a narrow and incorrect
view of our relation to Mexico
and the proper course to be pur-
sued in handling the Mexican
problem, and the lower stratum
of saloon Yuen. We judge that
he polled his full strength and
that his vote in the second pri-
mary will not be materially in-
creased over that of the fiia^
Texas will return Culberson^^^
the Senate by an overwhelming
majority, and the prohibitionists
under existing conditions will
not hesitate fio assume their full
share of the responsibility.
