He told of beautiful scenery a

pression. There were cement orive '
ways to the pastures and the barn i
was a mansioh. There were live!
stalls with stallions including Whir

were about tuty yearling colts tor

PATRICIA is highly pleased
with the school. Mrs. Trammell
said. She is the only girt from Tex-
as there and is quite a curiosity to I
the other girls. Her room mate is
from New York state.
So curious have the other stud-

Alcohol Addicts
Receiving Help
From Committee
A committee of citizi-ns headed
by Dr t'mphrey Lee. SMU presi-
dent. appears to be making head-
way m aiding people who cannot
drink without disastrous results,
according to reports received here.
This organization has nothing to
do with tnc merits or demerits of
prohibition, It has information on
alcohol and ways for addicts to
help themselves.
Mrs. Margaret Armstrong Sher-
wood is executive secretaiy and
has become so efficient that she
has become known as The Alcohol
Lady.'
So far there have been only 413
requests for information or from
! the six million people in Texas and
others of the Soutnwest. but these
needed aid and the comittee feels
this number manes their efforts
worth white.
The organization is affiliated
with 22 other committees started
by Yale University. It believes a
confirmed alcoholic can be helped
and it is done without ostentation.
The methods for some time have
defied the understanding of most

JERUSALEM, Sept. 29 it—The
Jewish underground blew up the,
five-story Haifa police headquar-!
ters building today, kilting 10 Brit !
ons and Arabs and wounding 541
persons in the worst blast to wracx I
Palestine since the King David Ho- j
tel bombing 14 months ago.
Responsible quarters attributed
the explosion to the stern gang, |
believed to be acting in reprialS|
for the seizure of the refugee sh p
despite Saturday and depot tation|
of the 450 Jewish immigrants to
Cyprus. t
Dean in the greatest blast of bat-
tle-scarred Haifa's history were
three British police, four Arab po-
lice. two Arab civilians, one of
them a 18-year-old boy. and an
unidentified person who was blown
to bits.
County Opens
Harvesting Of
Peanut Crop
I
Farmers in the southern part ot j
Stephens county and Eastland eoun j
ty were harvesting peanuts last
week as the official beginning ot
(all weather. I
Reports of yields were varied, f
with some farmers getting 7 to 12 j
I bushels to the acre, and most re-
porting fair hay crops. With hay
selling af $40 per ton. this was an
important angle, since the peanut
crop generally is expected to be
quite light.
Farmers said the time has pa>s-
ed when rain would help the pea
nuts, and alt it would do now l-
to slow the harvest. A heavy rain
would hinder harvesting as much
as two weeks, they said.
However stockmen were urgent-
ly in need of rain within the next
week or so if any grass is to be
grown for winter pastures. Quite
a number of cattle already have
been shipped from Eastland coun-
ty because of the poor condition
of pastures there, and many more
will be slaughtered or shipped it
there is no moisture soon, it was
said
First average frost here is about
Nov. 13. and grass should have a
rain a month before then to make
good winter pasture.
Ward Evans estimates that rou-h
ly there are 1.200 acres in peanut-
Not all are harvesting, those harv-
esting being more or less pushed
forward by the dry weather.
Plenty hay is beginning to be
seen brought to town.
