TO THE VOTERS OF THE 15th
SENATORIAL DISTRICT
In mailing my announcement as a
candidate tor the Senate from the
15th Senatorial District of Texas, I
am not unmindful ol' the grave res-
ponsibilities that I am presuming to
assume nor of the greatness of the
opportunity to serve the interests of
the people hot only of this District,
but of the entire State. There is a
burden! that someone must bear and I ,, , .
that burden constitutes the problem i g^OOming also a number

Mrs. Chas. Chovanetz was
home from State University over
the week-end.
The club held their regular
meeting, without our agent Miss
Ptluger, at the home of Mrs.
Frank Schovajsa Jr. Friday April
■13th. The subject on ‘‘personal
of
of how to best serve the interest of! patterns were cut. Our club gave
every man, woman, and child in this
great State, and primarily lliis bur-
den is borne by the farmers of this
country. The tribulation of the far-
mer is likewise the trial of every
man, woniari and child. Agriculture
and the agricultural interests of our
Country are nearest to my heart. Ir
is the very basis of our civilization,
and as the farmers prosper, the Na-
tion prospers; and, as the fanner suf-
fers, the Nation suffers; and in my
judgment, anjy relief from the present
state of depression, in order to be
lasting and universal in its effects,
must begin and end with the foster-
ing of prosperity for the farmers of
our country.
You will pardon me now in ack-
nowledging my gratitude to the many
many persons in this Senatorial Dis-
trict, who have asked me to make
the race for the Senate, and espe-
cially to the Austin Cotton Growers
Association, composed of farmers of
Austin! County, of which I have the
honor and distinction of being Pre-
sident — and that, with compensa-
tion — for the unanimous importu-
nities of each and every one of its
members, urging me to make the
race for the Senate of Texas, in or-
a 42 and Banco party at the
Beasley School house, Saturday
night, Apiil 14th. Mrs. Eula
Schultz won high in 42 and Gus-
sie Elsik won the booby.
Mrs. Anton Hajek won high in
Bunco and Miss Mary Hanzelka
the booby. A nice luuch was ser-
ved to all, everyone had a good
time. A profit of $3.35 resulted
which is to be used by the club.

with Mrs. Florin Klecka at Mid-

day at Hospital in San
Antonio
At eight-thirty o’clock last
Monday evening, April 16, death
claimed Mrs. Selma C. Flato,
wife of C. H. Flato, at the Medi-
cal Arts Hospital in San An-
tonio where she ha been under
treatment for one week.
Though advanced in years,
Mrs. Flato had been in good
health until stricken by the at-
tack, only a few weeks ago,
which resulted in her death. At
her bedside when the end came,
were her husband and two sons,
Rudolph, of this city, and Edwin
Flato, former mayor of Corpus
Christi. Though her many friends
here knew of her serious condi-
tion when she was taken to San
Antonio for treatmsnt, the news
of her sudden death came as a
saddening shock to all of them.
Funeral services and burial
were at Shiner, Texas, the for-
mer home of the Flato family,

numbered among the pioneer
settlers of Texas.
On May 5, 1875, she was mar-
ried to Chas. H. Flato. To them
were born four children, three
sons and a daughter, The daugh-

fourteen. The sons were Rudolph
G. Flato, of this city; the late
Charles H. Flato, Jr., who was
an outstanding civic leader and

nent business man and former
mayor of that city.
After their marriage, Mr. and
Mrs. Flato lived at Flatonia,

moved to Shiner, and in 1912
came to make their home in
Kingsville. Mrs. Flato was a

The Change of Life \
Cardui is purely vegetable, harm-
less, for women of all ages. Many
women who have used it advise
their daughters and friends to try
it. .. "I took Cardui for weakness
during the change of life,” writes
Mrs. Clara C. Allen, of Enfield, HI.
“It helped me and built up my
strength. I also gave it to my two
daughters and they were helped.
I think Cardui is a good medicine
during the change and for girls.”
Thousands of women testify Cardui
benefited them. If it does not benefit
