Nobody wants peace more than
you do! But like most good
things in life, it isn’t free.
Peace costs money.
Money for industrial and
military strength to help keep
the peace. Money for science
and education to help make
peace lasting. And money
saved by individuals. Every
Savings Bond you buy helps
strengthen America’s Peace
Power.
Are you buying as many
Bonds as you might?

Beautyrest
A salesman for a frozen food com-
pany, one for a beverage company,
and a third for a mattress company
were discussing their business in a
hotel lobby.
The frozen food salesman said:
“I just can’t stand to see a beau-
tiful woman eat alone.”
The beverage salesman said:
“I can’t stand to see a beautiful
woman drink alone.”
The mattress salesman didn’t say
anything. He had been called to the
phone.

TRENTON.—Mayor Finis Griffith
led a three-man delegation to Austin
where they appeared before the Rail-
road Commission to protest the clos-
ing of the Missouri-Kansas & Texas
Railroad depot here.
The Trenton depot was closed July
11, 1958, and since that time, all bus-
iness has been transacted through the
station at Leonard. The Katy has
earlier closed depots at Bells and Ce-
leste.

It’s the Comprehensive Dwelling Policy—a different
kind of insurance policy—and it unlocks the door to
broader, better protection at lower cost.
This remarkable policy combines 5 kinds of insurance:
(1) Fire, windstorm and allied perils, (2) Theft, (3)
Personal Liability, (4) Extra Away-from-Home Cover-
age, (5) Special Glass Insurance.
It makes possible money-saving, “package” premium
rates.
Amounts and coverage can be tailored to your partic-
ular needs. And, you enjoy all the advantages and con-
venience of a single policy: one agent, one, company, one
renewal date, and only one premium to pay.
Let us give you full information on the new 5-in-l Com-
prehensive Dwelling Policy.

STOCKHOLM. — Reports that a
Swedish man had swallowed five
pounds of metal rang false to skep-
tics until the newspaper Expression
yesterday printed a picture of the
2300 items retrieved from him by an
■ operation.
The items included: Fish hooks,
tacks, pins, buttons, curtain rings,
screws, keys, nails, brads, a number
of Swedish coins and an emblem em-
blazoned with the word “peace.”

The not-too-bright young lady told
her employer that she wanted to re-
sign from her job as she had decided
to move to California.
“But why California?” asked her
surprised employer.
“Well, confidentially, sir,” was the
reply, “I want to be near my cousin
who lives in Australia.”
A well-known conductor recently
took his orchestra on tour and dur-
ing his travels received the follow-
ing note from a well-meaning person
in one of his audiences: “I think it
only fair to inform you that the man
in your orchestra who blows the in-
strument that pulls in and out only
played during the brief intervals
when you were looking at him.”
Answer Me That!
A man who had taken aboard far
too much liquid refreshments stag-
gered into the long street on which
he lived. It was one of those streets
where the houses are so much alike
their own architect couldn’t tell them
apart. But the man picked out one
that looked like home and tapped on
the door, having lost his key.
No answer. Knocked louder and
then he heard footsteps inside. “Sor-
ry m’dear,” he said. “Sorry I’m late;
couldn’t help it.”
“I’m not your wife!” a woman’s
voice screamed from behind the door.
Sir Lancelot
Recalls Days of Yore
But Not Fair Lady
SAN RAFAEL, Calif.—James
Hamm, 41, thought he could change
his wife’s mind about a divorce if he
could only recall to her their high
school courting days.
That was when he used to whisper
to her “Gwinevere,” and she would
reply, “Lancelot.”
So Monday Hamm hired a white
horse and tied it up at a parking me-
ter in downtown San Rafael at a
building where his wife, Ruth, was
conferring with attorneys.
The horse carried a sign saying,
“Sir Lancelot’s White Charger—
Gwenivere, I love you.”
But “Gwi'nevfcre” would have none
of it. Mrs. Hamm, who now lives
with her two children in North Hol-
lywood, ran out the back door and
into a courtroom where Superior
Judge Charles Brusatori granted her
$375 a month temporary support.
Brittle Brother
The six-year-old came running to
her mother to report that Johnny,
her three-year-old brother, was sick
Johnny screamed at his mother,
“I’m not sick.”
“You are too,” said the girl.
“Why do you think Johnny
sick?” the mother asked.
“Because,” said the girl, “every
time I hit him his nose bleeds.”

Final Ruling On
Expense Accounts
The Internal Revenue Service has
made final its rules on employee ex-
pense accounts. They show little
change from the proposed ruling an-
nounced earlier in the year.
Under the new regulations effec-
tive with the 1958 tax year, an em-
ployee who accounts to his employer
for his business expenses and is re-
imbursed, will not be required to re-
port them on his income tax form.
If the employee gets an allowance in
excess of his expenses, the excess
must be reported as income.
Employees who do not account for
business expenses to employers must
report to the Internal Revenue Serv-
ice on his tax return the amounts he
incurred for travel, entertainment,
etc., under a reimbursement or other
arrangement.
Expense account information may
be requested by IRS if an employee
is related to his employer, or is em-
ployed by a company in which he or
his family owns more than 50% of
the stock.
Cost,
share payments for such plantings
cover land preparation, planting,
mulching and, insome cases, cost of
necessary soil building elements. Al-
so included are food plot plantings
to attract and hold quail, doves, deer
and wild turkeys. Food plots located
adjacent to protective cover or water
may include domestic grains a$ well
as natural foods, says Cooper.
Water habitat for ducks, geese and.
fur bearing animals are also included
under the program,
the restoration of
lands by plugging drains,
may be dug or a series of
water areas may be provided on re-
serve acreage.
For those interested in fishing, the
conservation reserve program in-
cludes the construction of ponds. Cost
share payments are made under 5 to
10 year contracts at the choice of the
farmer.
Details of the wildlife practices un-
der the conservation reserve pro-
gram are available at all county Ag-
ricultural Stabilization and Conser-
vation (ASC) offices. The deadline,
points out Cooper, for filing a request
for a maximum rate for a farm is-
Sept. 26. After the maximum rate is
determined, farmers have until Oct.
17, 1958, to apply for a conservation
reserve contract.

We’ve been told again about a top
New York lawyer attending the fu-
neral of a well-known politician. A
friend tip-toes in while the minister
was speaking and sat down beside
the lawyer.
“How far has the service gone?”
he whispered.
“He’s just,” answered the
with a nod toward the clergyman,
“opened for the defense.”

Wilson slammed his car into gear
and led the officers on a chase at
speeds up to 100 miles per hour.
Suddenly, his car skidded and
crashed broadside into a telephone
pole.
Wilson and his six-year-old
daughter, Mary Katherine, were
killed instantly. His wife, Bonnie,
22, and two sons, James, 4, and
George, 1%, were hospitalized with
serious injuries.
WASHINGTON.—The Army said
Monday it would spend $250,000 im-
proving Lake Texoma recreational
facilities during the fiscal year start-
ing July 1.
That sum was set aside by Con-
gress in approving $750,000 for civil
works projects of the Corps of Engi-
neers. The remaining $500,000 will
be spent at various other projects
where facilities are particularly in-
adequate.
Lake Texoma, the reservoir
created by Denison Dam on the Red
River between Texas and Oklahoma,
has become a major tourist attrac-
tion.. 1 .
The money will be spent for con-
struction of roads, parking areas,
.sanitary ’ facilities, picnic areas,
campsite improvements, boat launch-
ing ramps and similar works.
The recreational areas of 138
Army engineers’ projects in 35 states
drew 84,700,000 visitors last year.

Fired from his job of shoemaker’s

“Why,” she puzzled, “should your

“Aw,” growled Bob, “he’s nothing
but a big sorehead. Got mad at me
because I happened to sneeze with a
mouthful of tacks.”
“Boy, oh boy,” commiserated Mar-
tha, “sure gets mad over nothing.”
“Sure does,” sizzled Bob. “I even

A former Denison housewife is the
new state labor commissioner.
Gov. Price. Daniel Saturday an-
nounced the appointment of Mrs. M.
B. Morgan to that post to succeed her
husband, who died last June 19.
Mrs. Morgan is the second woman
appointed to that post. Maureen
Moore of Austin held the office dur-
ing the last term of Coke Stevenson.
Morgan first was appointed in
1947 by Gov. Beauford Jester.
The Morgans resided in Denison
until he received the state appoint-
ment. He was ticket agent in the
Katy passenger office there for many
years. He took leave from that post
when he entered political life, first
as Grayson County representative in
the Legislature.
Mrs. Morgan is a native of Lam-
pasas.
The job pays $8,400 a year.
Driver ‘Earns’ Ticket
But He Can’t Pay It
The harried coach pleaded with
the professor who had flunked his
prize tackle to give the boy another
chance. Finally the professor agreed
and did give the boy a special make-
up exam.
The next day the coach again an-
xiously queried the professor. “How
did Jones do?”
“I’m sorry,” said the professor.
“It’s hopeless. Look at this: 7x5—
33.”
“But, gosh, prof,” said the coach,
“give him a break. He only missed
it by one.”

DETROIT.—A wave of walkouts
across the country crippled auto pro-
duction Wednesday as contract nego-
tiations bogged down anew.
More than 66,000 were
about 32,000 in General
plants, 18,000 in Ford and 16,000 in
Chrysler.
The United Auto Workers union
blamed the unauthorized strikes on
what it said was refusal of the com-
panies to negotiate local grievances.
But General Motors repeated a claim
that UAW leaders in Detroit are dic-
I tating strikes to bring pressure in
contract bargaining.
UAW President Walter Reuther
plans to move personally into nego-
tiations with General Motors, .the
biggest of the Big Three auto mak-
ers, Friday.
GM, less than a week away from
a Tuesday strike deadline, became
the UAW prime target when nego-
tiations at Chrysler collapsed Wed-
nesday after an all-night session.
