LIGHT OF SEASON HERE.
A girl can never tell these days
with whom she is falling in love.
Imagine Evelyn Brent’s surprise
when she discovers the true identity
of the suave Englishman, Clive
Brook, in “Slightly Scarlet.” And
her surprise isn’t one tenth of what
yours will be when you see this thrill-
ing romance at the Mission Wedm.A-
day and Thursday.
Evelyn Brent was never more al-
luringly attractive, more gorgeously
gowned than she is in “Slightly
Scarlet.” Nor was the handsome
Brook ever more charminly whim-
sical, even in “Charming Sinners,”
than in this strange melodrama of
another charming sinner who looks
for high ideals and high station in
her men friends and falls in love with
.... what? That’s one of the big-
surprises in “Slightly Scarlet.”
The story is set m a smart society
melee, with sumptuous scenes and
delightful people. Yet it is as tense-
ly dramatic as anything Brent and
Brook have ever done—even as high-
ly climactic as “Interference,” their
former joint entertainment. It’s ac-
tion romance, highly spiced with ad-
venture.
Of course you’ll remember the de-
tective of “The Canary Murder Case.’
and “The Greene Murder Case.”
Eugene Pallette furnishes some de-
licious comedy in “Slightly Scarlet”
as the new-rich climber, the foil be-
tween the charmer and her deluder.
Then Paul Lukas, as suave and smart
as ever, is the menace. And Henry
Wadsworth, the sailor in “Applause”
and Morgan Farley, the youthful
lieutenant in George Bancroft’s “The
Mighty,” have excellent supporting-
roles.
and General Motors opened with
transactions of 20,000 shares, and
the turnover during the first half
hour approximated 1,000,000 shares.
During the course of trading, there
were occasional selling- flurries, as
bears felt that the advance was un-
justifiably rapid, and as hangover
selling was completed, but the vol-
ume slackened when the advance fal-
tered, and the best prices were not
reached until the last hour. Prices
backed up a little in the last few
minutes. The day’s turnover reached
4,600,000 shares, the largest since
February.
The family tie is broken. No more
we have his voice, listen for the
footsteps, home is desolate, but
amidst all sorrow and sadness, we
know that Jesus lives.
Bereaved ones each well borne
sorrow shall climb and claim gain
in mortality. We loved and revered
Mr. Purcell the more we knew of
his ambition for his family of the
great depth of his capacity for
friendship. Wonderous the mystery,
glorious the secret of God’s grace.
His was a redeemed soul, he had
known the promise through many
years of his life. God was good to
him in sparring his loved ones, many
times they gathered in his home an
unbroken family.
We know not why he was the first
to go, but loved ones now he awaits
the coming of wife, children and
friends, in a home where there is no
night, no sighs, no sorrow and tears,
no more goodbyes.
So often here the rain drops of
gorrow descend, but we can only
carry our troubled souls to one who
is love.
Time and his comforting hand will
chase the shadows away. Sweet is
the promise “I will not forget thee.”
We know your loss is great, your
sorrows come, but just beyond is
peace, one glorious eternal day where
husband and father abides. . May the
loved ones left behind be drawn
closer together, closer to God.
Comfort the mother that was spar-
ed to advise, pray, and mould the
lives of her precious children and
grandchildren that they may be use-
ful men and women and live the life
that when they too come to the end
of the long, long road they may be
able to say, the waters will not be
chilly for I am resting on His prom-
ise, all is well.
There is no death, the summons
come, our loved ones are borne
away, we call is death, but they have
only gone on to await the resurrect-
ion.

CARBON MONOXIDE
VERY DECEPTIVE
AND DANGEROUS
Dr. Morris Fishburn, noted health
authority, states that you should
ever be on the watch for deadly
monoxide gas, and gives the follow-
ing information concerning- it:
“Carbon monoxide gas is colorless
and odorless. It is produced when
wood, coal, coke, illuminating as, or
gasoline is burned. If the flame is
hot it is burned more completely
than when the flame is slow and has
insuffcient air. Small amounts of
carbon monoxide cause headache and
other symptoms; large amounts pro-
duce death.
“A few of the suggestions are so
simple that every workman should
become familiar with them- These
suggestions are particularly applica-
ble to workers in the home, because
illuminating gas used for cooking
purposes is a dangerous source of
gas poisoning.
1.” If there is a yellow flame
heating your machine, report this
fact at once. There should be a
blue flame at all times. A yellow
flame gives off carbon monoxide gas.
“2. Never use a gas heated ap-
pliance which is connected up by
means of flexible rubber or metal
tubing. This is not safe. The only
flexible tubing that does not leak is
an approved cloth covered tubing.
“3. Do you suppose you can find
a leak in your tubing by running a
lighted match along it? It will light
only when there is a very large leak.
There may be many small leaks which
make it dangerous to work at your
machine, even though those places
do not permit enough gas to go thru
to actually light when you apply a
match to them.
“4. When you are working- over
an open flame, do not put any ut-
ensil on the fire which is so large as
to cover the flame too completely.
This keeps the air out, and increas-
es the amount of carbon monoxide
gas which is produced.
“5. Do not try to patch a leak
or make any adjustment yourself.
Close off the gas until the repair
man comes.
“6. If the gas pressure changes
report the fact at once. If there is
too great a pressure, the gas will
not burn properly and will give off
considerable carbon monoxide gas.
If there is too little presssure some
of the port holes in your appliance
may not light- This will happen
particularly if they are dirty, and
filled with soot. Those port holes
that do not light lead a certain
amount of gas, and injure your
health. As has already been stated
the fact that you do not smell any
leaking gas is no indication that
there is no leak.
“7, If you find that you get a
headache at your work, carbon mon-
oxide may be present in the air.
Look for leaks and poor connec-
tions.”—Exchange

One of the most important recent
developments in the commercial car
and truck businesses the increase in
the number of Ford body types, which
now include several score units, ac-
cording to A. L. Alexander of the Al-
exander Motor Co., local Ford deal-
er.
“The extent to which this light
truck and commercial car have ex-
tended their usefulness is forcefully
demonstrated by the Ford commer-
cial exhibits in a number of the larg-
er cities,” Mr. Alexander said. “Rang-
ing from the dainty Model A town
car delivery designed for exclusive
shops to big trucks with extra long
wheelbase, these exhibits are display-
ing Fords for practically every pur-
pose except the very heaviest hauling.
“Representative of the Model AA
trucks designed for specialized needs
are several types of panel bodies, two
police patrols, an ambulance, a ser-
vice car for garages, funeral coach,
funeral service car, ice body, light
and heavy hydraulic dump bodies,
garbage truck, high lift coal body
combination dump body for coal and
coke, stake racks, open express and
heavy duty express. Also available
are furniture vans, busses for school
and public transportation, milk de
livery trucks, street sweepers anG
many other units.
“The Model A light delivery car
likewise is available in a number of
attractive body types. There are the
pick-up with open or closed cab, the
de luxe delivery, town car delivery,
panel delivery, drop floor panel and
the special delivery finished in nat-
ural wood.
“The Model AA chassis is available
in either of two gear ratios, with
131 1-2 or 157-inch wheelbase, and
with optional dual rear wheels. Bodies
may be had in any of a number of
color combinations with open or clos-
ed cabs, and, in several instances,
with either de luxe or standard fin-
ish.”
A GOOD MAN GONE

a few hours before the morning

Austin, June 23.—Importance of
sweet potatoes in the list of Texas
agricultural products is pointed out
by E. T. Crozier, sweet, potato in-
spector in the department of Agricul-
ture, in a summary of the work done
by the state in developing and pro-
tecting this industry.
Not generally appreciated is the
fact the sweet potatoes rank seventh
in value of all farm crops in Texas,
Crozier said, notwithstanding the
fact that much of the 1930 crop was
sold below the market price.
In 1930 there were 109,000 acres
planted to the yam, yielding grower
$7,238,000. This was a sum greater
than the value of the cabbage and
spinach crops combined; more than
the total returns on the fruit crop,
including citrus; and more than the
combined watermelon and canta-
loupe and cucumber crop.
Possibilities of the product are seen
in the fact that despite the multi-
million dollar valuation of the 1930
crop, the state imported to its five
largest cities—Dallas, Houston, Fort
Worth, San Antonio and El Paso—
511 carloads from other states. Louis-
iana furnished the bulk of these po-
tatoes, with Mississippi, Alabama,
Arkansas and Oklahoma furnishing a
few cars each. Figures were available
only for these five cities; but Crozier
pointed out that it was likely other
cities imported a total as great.
No statistics were available on the
number of cars shipped out of the
state. Principal out-of-state markets
for the Texas yam is in the North-
west, particularly Colorado, Oregon
and Washington, with a few carloads
going to Canada.
Potential eastern markets for the
Texas potato have been hardly
scratched, Crozier said, the section
east of the Mississippi seeming to
prefer a dry potato. He pointed out
that this apparent preference was due
to the comparative newness of the
Porto Rican yam which Texas pro-
duces, and because it is not exten-
sively advertised in the East.
The state is not, however, in a po-
sition to extend its production with-
out first extending curing facilities,
Crozier declared, adding it would be
disastrous to increase production
without an equivalent increase in
curing facilities. A kiln-dried potato
has a higher sugar content, a better
flavor and marked advantage in ship-
ping, according to Crozier.
Value of good seed is shown in rec-
ords of agricultural experiment sta-
tions. One of these experiments show-
ed that good seed with plenty of little
roots produced 152 bushels per acre,
while bed run plants produced 92
bushels and spindling plants 72 bush-
els. The state sets high standards
for growers of certified sweet pota-
to slips.
