Along came a tourist car Sunday
night making 45 miles an hour over
[Highway No. 1 toward Dallas. Soon a
*‘wrecker” from Sulphur Springs had
to go out and pull the fellows back to
Sulphur Springs-—they went off the
highway near Cumby.

It begins to look like the Echo man
will soon be in the race for the Leg-
islature or Senate on a single plat-
form that limits all highway speed to
30 miles an hour with a heavy: fine,
proceeds to go to highway fund, for
all that violate the law. Thirty miles
an hour will be the limit under our
law.

Fair, open weather is just around
the corner, and not maybe so. It
won’t be long now till the candidates
from the country will be able to get
to town and mix things with the
town candidates.
This is about the time of year for
Hoovercrat gardening. The ground is
prepared, seeds are planted and ma-

they sit around a warm fire and keep

TALKING ABOUT SULPHUR
SPRINGS
Sulphur Springs News-Telegram:
The most dangerous thing we see
from day to day in auto traffic in
Sulphur Springs is the riding on the
side of cars by the high school pupils
as they go to and from the high
school. The Highway Safety Council
killed while riding on the side of one
of these cars.
The Highway Safety Council, the
Superintendent of Public Instruction,
even the Constable of Precinct No. 1
may warn children against fender
riding, but unless their parents for-
bid them, and back the forbiddance
with a penalty, the youthful passen-
gers will continue to risk their lives
in the manner mentioned. Also, in
other manners. Parents still have
some control of their offspring, de-
spite the denials of the foreboders
who see a rising generation indiffer-
ent to discipline. Surely children are
hard-headed, thoughtless, adventure-
some, self-indulgent. They always
were. They are human beings pos-
sessed of human debits without ma-
tured credits. But love has not been
ruled out of the American home. Fil-
ial affection has not been depleted
from American hearts. Dutiful par-
ents yet may exercise a directing in-
fluence upon childish impulse. There
are so many respectful and obedient
children it is unfair and unwise to
class all of them with the worst of
them. It is trite to remark that the
yqung are our Nation’s most prized
possessions. Certainly they are. But it
is worth while to stop occasionally
and consider whether they are being
given that solicitude that supervision,
that study which their elders give to
the chips and whetstones which con-
stitute the Nation’s material wealth-
The children do not always get the
consideration which is given to more
transient values—not that such con-
sideration should be in the form of
mollycoddle, but rather in the form
of esteem, courtesy and companion-
ship.—Dallas News.

underlying plan? And catch a glimpse
of the real intent and the heart of the
vanquished man?
I dare to hope he may pause some
day as he toils as I have wrought, and
gain some strength for his weary
task, for the battles which I have
fought. But I’ve only the task itself
to leave with the cares for him to
face; and never a cheering word may
speak to the fellow who’ll take my
place. Then here’s to health old chap,
I drink as a bridegroom to his bride.
I leave, an unfinished task for you,
but God knows how I tried. I’ve
dreamed my dreams as all men do,
but never a one came true. And my
prayer today is that all the dreams
may be realized by you. And we’ll
meet some day in the great unknown
—out in the realm of space; you’ll
know my handclasp as I take your
hand and gave in your tired face.
Then all failures will be sucesses in
the light of a new found dawn. So
I’m drinking to your health, old
chap; who’ll take my place when I
am gone.—Author Unknown.
funds to other types of investments
and speculation, they continued to
try to create the impression of a
boom.
In the end they fooled themselves
and regularly sold property at extra-
ordinarily favorable prices without
admitting it-
If they had been frank with them-
selves and with the public, and at-
tacked the situation in the only obvi-
ous way to meet it, they might have
built a speculative market out of the
depression without selling a single
piece of property any cheaper than
they actually did,, while they might
have increased the volume of their
sales tremenduously.
The lack of foresight and imagi-
nation found in business men of long
experience, some of whom have been
signally successful, should be very
encouraging to young men by the
mere realization that they will not
have to compete against any mental
giants in order to make their way in
the world.

Whatever other exercise Manhat-
tan folks lack, they make up in
dancing. There is too much music ev-
erywhere about to very easily keep
the feet from misbehavin’.
New cellar dance places are now
springing up in the Broadway zone,
and Greenwich Village is now com-
pletely cluttered with them. Harlem,
too, has become a new rendezvous
for the dance-mad.
One mid-Broadway ballroom is
said to be the largest in the world,
and it is almost always crowded to
the doors.

During a recent period of inactiv-

the fact that the real estate brokers

The slow tempo in. dance music is
gaining momentum in Manhattan,
and all the fast steppers are swing-
ing into a slow-motion stride, or slide
that goes well with soft lights, tables
half hidden by palms and moonlight
nights. Brass in the orchestras that
play this sort of music are toned
down, and in many cases almost ta-

time.
One steps are still one steps, but it
is just that much slower, and the
youngsters are claiming that it is
quite as fascinating, and a lot less
tiring than the quick-step or Charls-
ton type. And it allows a lot more
time for a quiet. chat while gliding
about.

Washington, Jan. 11.—Representa-
tive Wright Patman of the Texar-
kana district was the speaker at a
meeting of the Texas Society in
Washington Saturday night at Meri-
dian Mansions. Lester Coyle, l’adio
artist, gave a short program of songs
and Miss Blanche Mayes several read-
ings. Mrs. R. F. Lindsey of Mount
Pleasant, president of the Texas Fed-
eration of Women’s Clubs, who has
been* here attending meetings of the
board of the general federation, at-
tended as the guest of Representative
and Mrs. R. Q. Lee of Cisco.
Mrs. T. Lacy Edmiston was host-
ess, assisted by the ladies and mem-
bers of the congressional delegation,
in the informal reception. Following
the program the evening was spent
at dancing and cards.
Talks of Voting Rules.
Mr. Patman’s speech dwelt with
the election requirements in Texas,
who is allowed to vote, and require-
ments for candidates for office, and
for the permitted expenditures. He
also discussed absentee voting and
what is necessary to have such
counted as cast in the election.
“In order that residents of Texas
temporarily domiciled in the District
of Columbia might be convenienced
in casting absentee ballots in the
District of Columbia,” said Mr. Pat-
man in part, “the secretary of the
Texas club or some one designated
by the club should be authorized to
see that arrangements are made with
a. notary public in the District of Col-
umbia who will familiarize himself
with the absentee voting law in Tex-
as. I am sure that there are several
hundred citizens of Texas in the Dis-
trict of Columbia who would be glad
to vote in each election, provided ar-
rangements are made for their con-
venience.
Doubts District Change.
“I doubt that the people of the
District of Columbia are ever grant-
ed full and complete suffrage. The
population of the District is'about
one-third colored. A large proportion
of the white population of the Dis-
trict maintain their residence in. the
States; they have pride in their citi-
zenship in their home States and
would not likely give it up for the
right to vote in the District. The col-
ored people would unanimously take
advantage of the opportunity to vote
here. Therefore, to grant full and
complete suffrage to the people in
the District of Columbia would prob-
ably ersuit in our national capital be-
ing under the dominion and control
of a negro government, such as has
been experienced in the black belt of
Chicago and on the island of Haiti.
“Citizens of Texas who are now in
the District of Columbia should in-
sure their right to vote this year by
paying their poll tax before Feb. 1
and not remain voiceless in the af-
fairs of our State and Nation.”
CARD OF THANKS
It is with deep gratitude we wish
to express our sincere thanks to our
many kind friends of Pickton and
Sulphur Springs who so lovingly as-
sisted us during the death of our dear
mother and sister. We are also very
grateful for the beautiful floral of-
fering and we pray God’s richest
blessing on each of you.

“PM BEING A GOOD GIRL, DADDY,
WHILE YOU ARE AWAY”
No matter where you are—a few miles away or sev-
eral hundred—you can travel home quickly by “long-
distance” and talk with loved ones there.
‘Long Distance” is a convenient way to keep in touch
with home or business, or for any other social or com-
mercial purpose.
Evening rates apply on station-to-station calls from
8:30 p. m. to midnight when the day rate is 25 cents
or more. If the day rate is 50 cents or more, the
evening rate is about half the day rate.
Ask the long distance operator for rates on
any class of service, to any point, at any
time.

a good cigarette. Taste is either there,
or it isn’t; deception plays no part.
We put taste first, in making Chester-

for mildness, for aroma, for tobacco
