This day is fair, enjcy it while you may!
Tomorrow you must tear away its page.
You can not lengthen it or bid it stay.
Its measured sands run swiftly through the
gauge,
But this is sure: who wakes tomorrow morn.
Shall find a new day for his service born.
—Edgar A. Guest.
Here is a calendar to serve the year.
A page to mark each day that's new begun.
Beh Id the first which wears its figure one!
At dawn another morning will appear.
But will it come with sorrow or with cheer?
There is no clew for men to seize upon.
Time breeds the hour which lives and
passes on.
Nor stays for laughter or the glistening tear.

If it were possible to raise this vast sum for

such an era of graft and extravagance that would

Does anyone believe that any such sum as

You’ll take a new
delight in your
phonograph
rpHERE are idle phono-
j. graphs in thousands of
homes, to-day, because of
the noise of needle friction.
Thousands of sensitive
music-lovers have, never
purchased phonographs
because, for them, record
surface sounds spoil the
music.
Other thousands pa-
tiently endure the ever-
present scratch and scrape
and try to overlook it.
Columbia's already fa-
mous discovery of a new
and unbelievably quiet
surface material for rec-
ords has opened up a new
epoch in phonograph plea-
sure. Now you may buy
records of the music you
most delight in—the well-
loved ballads, arias from
the famous operas, the lilt
and swing of dance music,
songs of the violin, the
surging harmonies of
great orchestras — all
noticeably free from ob-
jectionable surface sounds.
All of the Columbia
Records out to-day are
made with this wonder-
fully quiet and pleasing
new surface.
A* an example, bear
Dolly Kay sing "Hot
Lipa”— a true blue tong
of a torrid trumpeter who
blows a wicked horn.
On the other side is Dolly
again, singing "Blue.”
There is a very susceptible
saxophone that sighs and
sobs al! the way through
as though its musical
heart would break.
Tear out thia list and
take it to a Columbia
Dealer. Listen to any or

will acclaim them the

most musical records you

character, and comes as we understand it, under
the auspices of the local klan to deliver
this address.
The Morning News believes that the subject
he has chosen is not the pertinent one. We would
much rather hear him discuss the question:
"Should the Ku Klux Klan Unmask?” There is
very little objection to the tenets advocated by the
klan but we would all like to know who those are
who would make us believe they are organized
f primarily to help the officers enforce the law.
Any man or organization with such an object
should come out in God’s open sunshine and make
the fight.
The klan has a perfect right to restrict its
membership, it has a right to advocate all Ameri-
canism. white supremacy, purity of womanhood;
but it is accused of using the mask fur regulating
I the morals of the communities in which it func-
tons. It is accused of proposing to dominate the
polities of this country. Any organization that
would run our government should not wear masks.
There should be a way to locate responsibility for
government. We want to know who it is that
would elect our officers and who proposes to help
the officers enforce the laws.
It may be the klan has never tried anybody
out in the pastures and administered punishment
in the dark and wearing the mask. But there can
be no question that the presence of the klan in
the country has caused wholesale whippings and
tar and feather parties. Whether these outrages
have been done by the klan or not. its responsi-
bility exists and all because of the mask.
Let the klan unmask and its troubles are over.
Opposition to it will cease at once. No one would
care whether it disbanded or not if the hood
comes off.
The klan just now is much in the limelight
on account of'the Mer Rouge murders. The hood
figured there and caused the murders and has.
up until now, prevented the detection of the mur-
derers. Whether the klan officially was back of
these outrages is beside the question. The parish
of Morehouse was a peaceful, home-loving, neigh-
borly community until the advent of the mask.
The organization, of course, realizes that its
existence is threatened, and its activities in the
way of sending out speakers and staging parades
is to try to stem the gathering flood of public
condemnation that is evident all over the country.
The klan in Texas is fortunate in having a man
of Mr. Wills’ character as its defender. But we
insist that the subject of his address would more
properly meet the public desire for information
if he would discuss “unmasking” rather than
"disbanding.”

Governor Neff is out in a statement about the
needs of our schools that is, to say the least of it.
the most extravagant statement that has been so
far advanced.
He proposes that we spend $50.00 per pupil
per year on education. His plan is to have one-
half of this vast sum to come from the state and
the other half to come from the county.
The Governor proposes to raise the state’s
part of this money from taxing oil and amuse-
ments. He seems to think this can be done with-
out anybody particularly having to pay it. His
idea is that people outside of the state will foot
the bill. Maybe so, maybe so.
But if every barrel of crude oil is taxed it
means that the tax will be passed on to every rail-
road and manufacturing enterprise that is burn-
ing oil down to every Ford car that is hauling the
family to church out in the country. Mr. Rocke-
feller and the other big oil magnates will find a
way to make Texas pay it, never fear. He also
thinks that he can deplete the fat pocketbooks of
the movie kings who live outside the state by
slapping a tax on amusements. As though the
price of admission wouldn’t advance. We all know
we had to pay the war tax and there is no visible
evidence that the film producers have had a re-
cent stroke of philanthrophy that would cause
them to pay the state tax.
There is n8 way to shift the tax from the
consumer and all the sophistry in the world won’t
shift a dime of it onto the other fellow.
But presuming it was possible to get the
state’s part of this vast sum out of the phlethoric
purses of the oil magnates and movie kings, where
is the county going to get its half?
Take this county as example. There are
15,246 scholastics in Harrison county. This $50.00
per pupil would make the schools of the county
cost $772,300, and the county’s half to raise by
local taxation would be $386,150. This would
mean that we would have to increase our county
taxes by a levy of $2.57 on the hundred dollars,
or in other words we would be asked to pay an
additional tax of considerably more than double
our present tax, which includes state tax, road
bond issues and everything else.
It’s hard to think the Governor ever really con-
sidered what he was talking about. When the
figures are placed up against the Governor’s prop-
osition it makes it so ridiculous that it would be

The Fort Worth Star-Telegram has an article
on the Flapper and the Jelly-Bean and at the out-
set asks the question, “Does the Flapper know she
is a flapper and does the Jelly-Bean know he is a
jelly-bean?” It’s rather a severe arraignment of
our young people who have consciously, or uncon-
sciously, assumed these two characters in our
modern civilization. Here are some of the re-
flections of the Panther City contemporary:
"A little harmless fun that disturbs none and
brings a smile to the face is delightful in proper
time and place, but the flapper and the jellybean
would not know its value if they met it. Their [
' idea of fun is a loud laugh, a punch in the back i
/and a race with the wind. They do not know such
a thing as real fun in their homes. They do not
smile, but frown; they speak only to scold or
snarl. They scorn advice, recent admonition and
| if they can find a rock wall will butt their heads
I against it just like a goat, and their heads are
just about as hard.
Who are the parents of the flappers and jelly-
beans? For the most part perfectly respectable
and often highly respected men and women who
have been foolishly soft hearted in the formative
period of the youngsters' lives. The loss of the
head, the starmp of the foot, the "I won’t,” have
been permitted to pass unnoticed as “smart.” Of
course the youngsters do not know they have
started on the wrong road, and their parents
won't tell them.
Soon they are in the broad highway, running
wild, perhaps have thrown off the hitching strap
that was fastened at its other end to the parental
beans; they spend the night in frolic and loll in
bed most of the next day. And their parents still
permit it not knowing what to do.
The jellybean and the flapper may not be un-
known to society, but they are the product of a
dilettante period. They lived in ancient Greece
and Rome, but never did they belong to the nation
Trojans or to the time of the early Caesars.
They may outlive their jellybean • and flapper
___ and emerge as good citizens, but too many (
be judiciously expended and the balance would go f° to before they get strength enough
to fads and fancies. We would indeed be for-
tunate if Old Man Graft did not get his fing-
ers in the pie.
