deposit that the gain would have
been greater. However the bad
weather conditions has slowed the
stripping of cotton and the crop
will be harvested later this year.
The farmers are badly in need of
some extended good weather to
get their cotton out and their
land in shape.
The total loans in the county
this year is $25,477,216.35 as com-
pared to $22,427,049.78 last year.
Below we publish a compara-
tive statement of deposits in all
banks of Collin County:
The Texas Highway Commis-
sion has approved the spending
of $154,900 for highway safety
and betterment and improvement
of the farm to market road sys-
tem in Collin County during 1967,
District Engineer B. L. DeBerry
of Dallas said.
He said a total of 62.2 highway
miles in the country will be in-
volved. Work will be under the
supervision of John R. Taylor,
Supervising Resident Engineer,
McKinney, Texas
The work is part of the High-
way Commission’s combined
1967 Farm to Market Road Im-
provement and State Highway
Safety and Betterment Program.
The projects covered under this
program for Collin County are
as follows:
16.9 miles of seal ccat on FM
2478 from FM 1461 to FM 544
north of Rhea’s Mill.
State Highway 289 will get ad-
ditional surface and seal coat on
the shoulders from SH 121 south
to the Dallas County line.
All other projects involve seal
coat only, DeBerry said.
They are: 9.6 miles of seal coat
on FM 455 from Denton County
line to 4.1 miles east of SH 289
through the City of Celina; 4.5
miles on FM 2514 from .7 mile
east of SH 5 to FM 2551; 4.6 miles

24; 10.8 miles on FM 1827 from
SH 24 to FM 545; and 7.9 miles on
FM 547 from SH 24 to FM 6.
Statewide, the program calls
for the improvement of 5,587
miles at an estimated construc-
tion cost of $39.9 million and
right of way cost of $161.5 thou-
sand. Work will include 912 proj-
ects in 215 of Texas’ 254 counties.
Three hundred and ninety proj-
ects are on State and U. S. high-
ways in 170 counties and 522 proj-
ects are on farm to market roads
in 179 counties.
Herbert C. Petry, Jr., Chair-
man of the Highway Commission,
called the combined program “a
double-barreled effort in two
vitally important highway areas.”
The safety and betterment por-
tion of the program reflects the
Commission’s continuing con-
cern with making Texas high-
ways safer to prevent traffic
fatalities and accidents, Petry
said.
He said the program s farm to
market provisions protect the in-
vestment of Texas taxpayers in
their 37-thousand-mile farm and
ranch to market road system.
The safety and betterment por-
tion of the program calls for
work on 2,337 miles of highways
at an estimated cost of $23.2 mil-
lion.

We really appreciate their
bringing us an issue of The Mas-
sachusetts Sun, printed in Wor-
cester in May, 1775. This was
copied from the original, in
which Editor Isaiah Thomas
wrote, “This newspaper is the
first thing ever printed in Wor-
cester.” One amusing item ran,
“Lost out of a Waggon in North-
borough — two packs marked
L.P., containing two white shirts,
two checked ones, two pairs oi
stockings, etc. Whoever shall
take up the above and sent them
to Captain Steadman of Cam-
bridge, shall be handsomely re-
warded by Lemuel Pomeroy.
P.S. It is very likely the packs
were mistakenly put into the
wrong waggon.” •

“good things of life”. They be-
lieve that “youth is a time for
learning” and that knowledge
and appreciation of he cultural
arts — art, music, literature and
drama, will give the young peo-
ple of today wider horizons and
understanding of the satisfying
values of beauty, discipline and
