We can’t play ball with Russia and Tru-
man’s advice to Secretary Wallace “to shut
up or get out” is a wise move in 'view of the
fact that the country is overwhelmingly be-
hind Byrnes and his policy towards Russia-
Russia double crossed every nation when it
was to her advantage, including Germany,
Japan, England and the whole of Balkans.
It is the Communist creed to stop at noth-
ing, even lying, cheating and retreating, if at
a future date it will be of advantage to Rus-
sia. Wallace is almost all alone in his appeas-
ment policy . ... and goodness knows we do
not want to fight again . . . even at this op-
portune time when we have the weapon .to
ourselves to crush any nation . . . the atomic
bomb, which we can hope to hold only for
ourselves only a few short years.

Butcher shops still do not have enough
meat to pay them to stay open 30 minutes a
day, and it is effecting sale of other items.
According to one grocer “people come in,
go to the bare cases at the meat counter, and
then get good and mad! Under this influence
they grab a loaf of bread and a can of beans
and rush out.”

less it’s beer , and that is just across the riv-
er in- Oklahoma. Looking at a map issued
by the Texas Liquor Control Board we find
that the northern half of Texas , is predomi-
nately dry the southern half just the oppo-
site. Looking over the records (except for
the national prohibition era) we find that
Wichita County has almost consistently been
wet, except during the war just ended. These
are not facts to influence balloting, but mere-
ly to help/acquaint the public with a ques-
tion on which every qualified voter should
• t
cast their ballot to give us an election, which
should be conclusive to both sides which way
the people of Wichita County want the is:
sue handled in the future. More next week.
You, too, will like it. And you con afford it when it is
included as part of house cost.'Remember, a house is no»
more modern than its heating system.

How would you like to sit back and enjoy life during win-
ter without a single heating worry? You con! Simply
include heating as part of house in your remodeling or
building plans.
Closet type central furnaces are being specified here
in Southwest by new home builders. They like this furnace
because it provides fresh, cleaned, warmed-air auto-
matically. They like it because it can be installed in small
space. They like it because it'costs little to operate.'* And
they like it because it is vented to a flue.

ate. It is vented to a flue.

There have been some times recently when some
stock of different kinds have been caught in and on
our City lake and property.
Our obligotion to the health of our town and people
make it necessary that we take such steps as we might
see fit to prosecute such offenders. On account of the
stock law the responsibility rests entirely with the
owners to keep their stock off the other party’s pro-
perty.
Also there has come to us some complaint that
there has been some water hauled from our City lake,
without any permission. That is not to be done and
caught will be prosecuted.
