THE COTTON GIN
‘AMONG MY SOUVENIRS”
“Sweetheart
“Old Pal, Why Don’t You Answer
Me?” Can’t You Hear Me Say I Love
You?” “I’m Yearing” for “Just One
Sweet Letter From You,” “Because I
Love You.” “What Does It Matter,
If Your Heart Keeps Right.” “When
Day Is Done,” “I Ain’t Got Nobody,
“Precious,” “At Sundown.”
“On a Night Like This,” I’m think-
ing of “My Blue Heaven.” “Forgive
Me” “Just Once Again,” ‘Remember,’
“Here Am I Brokenhearted.” “I Told
Them All About You,” and “The
Hours I Spent With You,” but “There
Must Be Somebody Else.” “I’ll Be
Yours From Saturday Night ’Til Mon-
day Morning,” if you’ll “Kiss and
Make Up.” “Some Day, Sweetheart,”
you’ll be “So Blue.”
“Give Me a Night in June” to do
“The Doll Dance” “Just Once Again

Sweetheart.” “My Idea of Heaven
is to be “In Your Arms” “At Dawn-
ing.”
“Yesterday,” “I Walked Back from
the Buggy Ride” “Side by Side” “On
the Road to Mandalay” with “Sam,
the Old Accordian Man.” So maybe
you’ll be “Jealous of Me,” ’cause
“I’ve Got Something to Tell.” “It
All Depends on You.”
“Oh, Promise Me,” “I’ll Be With
You,” “Always,” and “When the
Morning Glories Wake Up in the
Morning,” “We’ll Be on the Beach at
Waikiki,” drinking “Muddy Water.”
“Dear Heart,” “I Always Knew”
“I’d Walk a Million Miles” to be with
you “High, High Up in the Hills” “In
a Little White House” “At the End
of Honeymoon Trail.”
“The Song Is Ended” and your
“Melancholy Baby” is “Too Tired”
to get up at “Three o’clock in the
Morning” and sing you a “Baby
Song.”
Your Wild Irish Rose.”

My Column
Much cotton is grown in Hopkins
county each year, therefore many
gins are needed. The use of a gin
is to separate the cotton from the
seed. A large suction fan carries the
cotton from the wagon to a large
can called teeth which draws out the
seed and trash and carries it away.
The cotton goes out in long strips to
the baler. When enough cotton is
collected it is compressed into a bale
covered with bagging, tied by strips
of steel and carried to the cotton
yard. When the seed is separated
from the lint it is carried off in an-
other pipe and is disposed of.
The Oil Mill
At the oil mill the seed go through
about the same process only much
finer. The lint that is gotten is
baled and sent to factories to make
rope and such things like that. The
seed are then put in a heating room
and steamed for two or three days,
according to the condition the seed
are in. They are then mashed and
the oil is collected. It is used for
manufacture of cooking oils, paints,
canning fish, lard and various other
things. The pressed seed are then
dried and used for fertilizer. All of
this work is done by machinery, the
power being furnished by a large en-
gine run by steam.
The Compress.
Before shipping the cotton to the
factory it is compressed into small
bales by a large press run by steam.
The pressure has to be very great so
the boilers are heated with crude oil.
The base of the press is about three
yards square and weighs many tons.
The bale of cotton is put on the plat-
form and the press is lowered onto
it; the weight is so great the bale of
cotton is compressed to a thickness of
about two feet.
The Bottling Works.
The bottling works make Coca-
Cola and all kinds of soda waters.
The Coca-Cola and flavorings are
bought and are very strong. The
first process is putting the Coca-
Cola or flavoring in a kind of pot
and mixing it with the water. The
pot is run by electricity and turns
around very fast and mixes the mix-
ture. Then about one part of flav-
oring is put in a bottle to eight parts
of carbonated water. This is done
by a machine which puts the flavor-
ing in and carbonated water and then
caps them. They are then put in
cases, twenty-four to a case and
ready to sell.

You shore see a, powerful lot of

days—exams are popping up every

Interscholastic League to be held in
the Memorial Stadium at the Uni-
versity of Texas Friday and Satur-
day, May 4 and 5, according to Roy
B. Henderson, athletic director in
the Interscholastic League Bureau.
These district winners must make
their entry of the meet at least ten
days prior to May 4, Mr. Henderson
said. The mere fact that they won
the district meet does not fully
qualify them, and this can only be
done by them formally entering the
State meet not later than April
26.

stepped out, here comes a horse shoe

supposed to be lucky—but not back

mind bumping into you either.
Did you notice the white socks
