Warning Against
Overheating Room
With the advent of cold weath-
er, Dr. Geo. W. Cox, State Health
Officer, has issued some timely
advice concerning room tempera
ture and its relation to health.
“It is very important that in-
side temperature be manitained at
around 68 to 70 degrees,” Dr. Cox
said. “Thousands of homes are
continually overheated in the win-
ter, and a degree of heat is often
demanded that would not be to!
erated in the summertime.”
In a room that is overheated,
the body pores are open, and
physical harm may result when
outside temperature is encoun-
tered. Colds, influenza, bronchial
troubles and even pneumonia may
take advantage of this bodily
abuse, and take a serious toll in
sickness and even death.
“An inside temperature of from
68 to 70 degreest is not only more
heathful, but actually more com
fortable,” Dr. Cox said. “When,
added to these factors, the re
suiting economy is considered, it
might be well to check up and
see what your thermometer reads
A room temperature within the
range suggested, plus the careful
maintenance of proper humidity,
will help to prevent needless sick-
ness and protect the good health
of your family.”

$1601 Federal Pay Received—First
Checks for Young County Vets School
Co-ordinator M. J. Weaver of*
the Young County Veterans Voca-
tional School—which now includes
both Young and Throckmorton
counties—returned from Austin the
first of this week with the first
of the federal tuition checks.
They totalled. $1,601 and were
pay to the GI students for Sep-
tember and October.
The pay will be more and will
come faster, from now on, Weaver
said. Since its beginning the pro-
jert has grown so rapidly that
currently the tuition benefits for
the trainees will total around $2,-
200 per month. And Weaver said
with the organization a going con-
cern, and with the help of a more
streamlined procedure at Austin,
the federal mnothly checks should
come in promtply.
Organization of an agricultural
class at Elbert and at Throck-
morton during December brought
that county under the local pro-
ject, and this week Weaver said
another class at Throckmorton may
be formed.
In Young County, two classes
were operating at Olney, two more
at Graham and one at Newcastle.
Except for one at Graham study-
ing distributive education, all are
in agriculture.
Weaver secured the checks at
Austin last week while he was
there with Superintendent J. D.
Fulton, attending the series of
Texas educators’ meetings.
The smooth operation of the
Young County Veterans’ school
drew praise from B. C. Davis, who
has charge of veteran training un-
der the State Department of Edu-
cation.
THE CONQUERING
LIFE
Jesus, in his life and death, is
the undeniable example of the
conquering life. He doesn’t force
us to live his way of life, but if
we believe in Him we will. He
asks that life’s choices be made,
and life be planned with the un-
derstanding that we “seek first
the Kingdom of God, and His
righteousness.” He clearly states
that nothing should prevent man
from following His example. (Read
Luke 14:26.)
There is a clash of claims on
our life today. The thing-minded
civilization bids us live the lazy,
drifting, Godless life. (The life
which lives at peace with the evils
about us either by compromise
with or a total surrender to
them.) Such a life is bound to
end in “the haunted house of the
coward’s compromise’. Jesus bids
us live the life of self-denial, of
stern self discipline, of hard work
and continual fighting with the
forces of evil. He promises us that
such a life shall not only conquer
here, but live in a victor’s palace
hereafter.

There's EXTRA SAFETY in the Tire that
OUTWEARS PREWAR TIRES
While many postwar products are still in the
dream stage, one is not . . . the new postwar
B.F. Goodrich Silvertown that OUTWEARS
PREWAR TIRES.
It’s been produced . . . and what is more . . .
in the past twelve months it’s been delivered
to car owners in greater quantities than any
tire in B.F.Goodrich history.
Of course, many car owners have heard about
the thousands of extra miles of service from
the broader, flatter tread that covers more road
area and gives greater protection against skid-
ding. They know about the 35% stronger cord
body that gives better resistance to road shocks
and bruising. It’s no wonder the factory’s out-
standing production has been taxed keeping
up with this extra demand.
But this is one product you can take out of
your dream book . . . it’s here. If you’ll be
needing new tires soon . . . check with us
today for the tire that’s worth much more but
costs no more — the B F. Goodrich Silvertown
that OUTWEARS PREWAR TIRES.
