The reason
nights ago Seth drove down town,
parked his car on Main street and
prepared for an evening at chatting
with the boys. Hardly had he park-
ed himself on the curb in a comfort-
able position before he noticed his
car being backed out preparatory to
being driven away.
Thinking it was one of the boys up
to their usual pranks, Seth playfully
pulled his gun and, twirling it around
his finger, stepped in front of the
moving car. The driver proceeded to
drive straight ahead, knocked Seth
down and drove away.
■ Kay found his car next morning
in perfect conditioq, parked in a
negro section of . town.
Kay says the' next time he sees
his car move he is going to use the
gun in earnest.

Although Governor James V. Allred
will be unable to attend the Lampasas
Centennial celebrations here next
Wednesday, he will be Officially rep-
resented by Adjutant General Carl.E.
Nesbitt of the governor's staff.
That information was received here
Friday in a letter from the secretary
to the governor. Governor Allred
was asked on such short notice that
he was unable to attend, but he
showed his appreciation of the honor
by promising to send General Nes-
bitt as his official representative.

Raafall up to noon Friday reached
a total of 1.95 inches in Lampasas
and considerably more than that at
various surrounding communities.
Sulphur Creek was on an estimat-
ed 15 to 20-foot rise at 12:30 o'clock
Friday, the flood waters
covering the majority of
around the Hancock Park
pool. Considerable work
done at the pool preparatory to its
opening next Wednesday, much of
which work will have to be done over.
The wall around the spring from
which our eity water will be derived
had been completed, so there was no
damage there. High waters did cause
some damage at the disposal plant a
short distance below town.
This Rainfall came at just about
the right time to be of the most bene-
fit to farmers and stockmen. The re-
cent rain gave the grass and crops a
good start and this one will
make them grow.

Texas-and $143,000 in Oklahoma, but
only a few thousand dollars have
been loaned up to date. Most of the
loans so far have been for pure-bred
sires and farm machinery. The loan
is usually made to one man, and his
neighbors sign
the animal or
fled price.
Many other
enterprises may be financed through
such loans from the Resettlement Ad-
ministration, including syrup mills,
feed mills, laundries, canning plants,
meat curing plants, threshing outfits,
and facilities for grading and ship-
ping’ farm products such as fruit,
vegetables, eggs and poultry. Loans
may also be made for membership
: iw pr i ati vw -axuOchrttony;
In one county a loan is now being
considered which would enable bor-
rowers to become stock holders in a
cooperative hospital.
"I am sure that there are many
worthwhile enterprises that should be
started cooperatively in this county,”
McCracken said. "And I hope that
farmers who are interested will call
on me at an early date in order that
we may make requests for loans be-
fore the money is withdrawn." He
explained that a sound financial plan
must be worked out which will asiuPa
repayment and that the cooperative
enterprise must not duplicate any al-
ready in existence in the community.
Borrowers must either be farmers
who are already receiving aid from
the Resettlement Administration, or
unable to get the desired financial as-
sistance from any other public or pri-
vate agency. The others who parti-
cipate in the enterprise need not be
borrowers' from resettlement provid-
ed they are in the low-income class
who would otherwise not be able to
obtain the sort of service provided.
