The organization of a volun-
teer tire department and a reduc-
tion in our insurance rate will
probably be the bright side of
our last lire.
Weekly Weather Forecast
Issued by the U. S. Weather
Bureau, for the week beginning
May 25, 1915, for Texas:
Fair weather will prevail and
temperatures will be normal or
slightly above.
Several holes have been fill-
ed up on Main street by W. R.
M agile. Let the good work con-
tinue.
We live to learn. The Paris
News recently had an account of
a large butterfly chasing English
Sparrows.
Some of the mail in the post-
office was destroyed by fire,
eluding all the fixtures. Tem
pory quarters have been estab-
lished in the Jonnson stand, and
Postmaster Bell has the thanks
of every patron of the office for
his prompt action in the matter.
Jno. N. Green has sold the
Leonard Graphic to R. C. May.
John has made the Graphic
one of the best weekly papers in
the State. Here’s hoping, that
he will get located again soon and
that Mr. May will keep the pa-
per up to it’s present high stand-
ard.
On several occasions some of
our readers have asked us why
certain items of interest did not
appear in The Times. In about
nine cases out of ten the items
were sent in by our correspon-
dents and they appeared under
those heads. Get all you par for
by reading the correspondence .
The Pattonville Girls’ Econo-
mics Club opened their rest
room to the public last Saturday
week. Visitors numbered 73
and their sales for the day
amounted to $8.10. Delegates
were elected to State Industrial
Institute which meets at Austin
in July. Deport’s Club must
have it’s foot on the soft pedal.
We haven't heard from it re-
cently.
To set an ordinary column of
type requires 10,000 pieces of
type. There are seven positions
in which each letter may be
placed, and there aqe over 70,000
chances to make transpositions.
In the sentence, “To be or not
to be,” by transposition alone, it
is possible to make 5,759,022 er-
rors. After reading the above
statement from a printer’s maga-
zine, do you wonder why you
sometimes see an error in the
newspaper?—Palmer Rustler.
Our friend Fort of the Bios
som Bee is advertising the fact
that bank statements show Blos-
som to have $17,570.18 more
money on deposit subject to
check than Deport. In looking
over the Sunday school reports,
we also discover that Blossom
has four churches. Deport has
only three and the reports for
Sunday, May 16th, show that
only 233 Blossomites went to
Sunday school, while Deport’s
attendance showed 509—more
than twice as many. What we
started to say was that Deport’s
seventeen thousand went to the
Sunday schools and churches.
A number of men had the
chemical engine out Saturday
trying itoutafter it had been re-
charged. A run was made with
it around several blocks and a
bonfire was put out. Many have
expressed their disatisfaction
over it's purchased, and the, “I
told you so’s,” were numerous
Friday morning. NThe Times
still has faith in the engine, but
it must be recharged once every
three months and have men at
the tanks and nozzel who under-
stand each other to make it ef-
fective. A volunteer fire depart-
ment that will practice at’ least
once a month and refill the
chemical tanks every three
months is a good solution. The
manufacturers of the small ex-
tenguisher that can be taken *n
the hand and shook (an appara-
tus inspected and approved by
the Underwriters Laboratories)
state that they must be recharg-
ed at least once a year. If that
be true, how much more neces-
sary is it that a large tank that
can only be rolled over, be re-
charged more often.
you.—Bonham News.
The Times writer used the
word sacked in the article com-
plained of, to convev the thought
that so much game had been
caught, captured or taken. As
a matter of fact, sacks were used
to imprison the fish. Our friend
Evans put his in a gallon minnow
bucket. The turtle was too
large to be placed in a sack.
The Bonham editor thinks it
great sport to sit on the bank of
a creek for hours without get
ting a bite, while the mesquitoes
use the exposed part of his anat-
omy for a feeding ground.
When The Times man goes fish-
ing he goes to catch fish, not to
day dream and feed the mes-
quitoes.
broke her neck—Paris News.
Deport Lodjfe Directory
The editor of the Deport Times
brags in the last issue of his pa-
per about having gone fishing
and “sacked” 175 pounds of fish,
a fifty pound turtle and four
squirrels. A man who talks
about sacking a turtle hasn’t
been fishing. He may have
have dragged out a lot of inno-
cent drum and buffalo with a net
or seine, but that isn't fishing.
Get you a rod and reel, some
flies or live minnows and go out
and have some real sport, Hollo-
way. Then tell about having
gone fishing—bqt don’t say you
landed 175 pounds of fish in two
days if you want us to believe
Last week W. B. Martin paid
The Times twenty cents for an
ad, to inform the public that he
had while going home, lost a sack
of flour. Leslie Lawler fonnd
the flour and when he saw Mr.
Martin’s ad, phoned him abput
it. Reader, The Times locates
lost articles, estrayed stock, and
brings sellerand buyer together.
The cost is small, very small
compared to the value received.
Try a want ad;twenty words one
issue for twenty cents.
