The El-Hi track team did not

The El Hi tracksters will go to

Sheriff Hoskins took his oath
of office in January, 1953, ana
during that time he has served
faithfully, never turning down a
call no matter what time of day
or night it might be. “I may not
have pleased everyone,” he said
“but I have tried to make the
County a good Sheriff.”
Hoskins further stated that
the knowledge he has gained
wnile in office, plus his previous
experience as a law enforcement
officer, should help to make him
an even better officer, with the
cooperation and support of the
people of the county.
One innovation the Sheriff has
made while in office is the pub-
lishing of a monthly report in all
three of the county’s newspapers.
This service is one the county has
not had in the past, and it not

tire county, in a business manner

fice and stated, “Your vote and

it will be joined to Farm-to-Mar-

When this new connecting link
is completed, there will be a pav-
ea road from Elgin to Austin
through Webberville and the
Hornsby-Dunlap area, thus giv-
ing people in these communities
a good road to Elgin where they
always find a good market for
their products.

were given to the Highway De-

Judge Ralph W. Yarborough of
Austin was guest speaker on the
Assembly program at Elgin High
School Monday afternoon at 2:30
o’clock held in observance of
Texas Education Week. Mr. Yar-
borough chose “Our Heritage” as
the theme of a most interesting
and impressive address.
Judge Yarborough told his list-
eners that while our heritage as a
people includes everything that
has been transmitted to us by our
parents, the term is often used in
our time in a more limited sense
to denote that set of rights and
of freedom. Among the freedoms
listed were freedom of speech,
freedom of religion, freedom of
the press, and freedom from a po-
lice state.
He quoted Jefferson as being
one of the early day fighters for
education for all. Following is
one of the quotes from Jefferson
which he used: We should teach
young children how to work out
their greatest happiness, by show-
ing them that it does not depend
on the condition of life in which
chance has placed them, but is
always the result of a good con-
science, good health, occupation,
and freedom in all just pursuits.
March of Dimes contributions and
people in this aera who partici-
pated will be glad to know that
tests will be soon given to second
grade children in the ten test
counties and the nation will know
if the dread crippler is conquered.
■Counties to receive vaccine for
