‘TRIPPERS’
Trade Apostles Given Great
Welcome on Jaunt
Through Valley.
HARLINGEN Dec. I.—Guests of
honor of the Rio Grande Valley Fair
association Tuesday more than four-
score San Antonio trade apostles en-
joyed themselves thoroughly here the
third day of their Rio Grande Valley
expedition.
Before pulling into Harlingen where
the best part of the day was spent the
trade trippers made short stops at
San Benito Raymondville and Lyford.
The San Antonio visitors were given
a royal welcome at Harlingen. They
were met by a large reception com-
mittee and tendered every possible
courtesy.
INTERNATIONAL AFFAIR.
This was only in line with treat-
ment received at the other two stops
made by the “Golden Valley Special”
during the day.
The trade trip became an interna-
tional affair when Mayor Roiz of
Matamoros and the commandant of
the garrison met the party at the bor-
der bridge Monday night and wel-
comed them to the city.
“We realize the importance of trade
relations” the mayor said “and in
order that they may be cordial there
must be understanding. Such visits
as these do much toward bringing a
better understanding because of so-
cial acquaintances.”
MAKE RESPONSES.
Responses were made by William
Ochse Juatice T. D. Cobbs R. Neil
Campbell and Consul General Carillo
of San Antonio.
The party is in the boat of spirits.
Everywhere they have ben met with
enthusiasm. The Elks’ band which
is accompanying has proven
popular and has been cheered to the
echo at every town where it has given
a concert. At some placew along the
route where no stogn were scheduled
many enthusiastic citizens gathered at
the station to cheer the special as it
thundered through.

Child Vanquishes
Parent In Duel
At Repartee
In a duel at repartee a Bexar
county official was recently van-
quished by his lt-year-old daugh-
ter.
She has reached that stage In
life where she is shaking off
the limitations of baby talk and
beginning to imitate the conver-
sation of her elders. Wherever
she hears a new word she tries
to put it into n«e as soon as
possible. The other day she
heard her teacher use the word
“sub-fonscious.”
A few days later her father
was teasing her. She tried to
“come back” at him but with
little success. Then she thought
of the new word she had learned
but had confused with another.
“Oh daddy you are always
saying something in your ‘un-
conscious’ mind” she declared.
Her mistake won the argu-
ment.
CHAM HEARS
LEGAL FIGHT
FOB LIFE
HARTFORD Conn. Dec. I.—Ger-
ald Chapman so maneuvered court
proceedings M nday that in addition
to the 50 minutes public appearance
he enjoyed then he will have another
chance tomorrow to step from his con-
demned cell while his habeas corpus
petition is argued.
Looking nerve-wracked his chalky
complexion something more than the
prison pallor America’s “arch bandit”
again assumed n cool debonair air as
his lawyers contended he could not be
hanged for murder until he completed
his previous 25-year federal prison
sentence for mail robbery.
GIVE CHAPMAN TIME.
Federal Judge Edwin 8. Thomas
ordered an adjournment so that the
battery of defense lawyers may digest
the voluminous objections to Chap-
man's plea filed Sy States Attorney
Alcorn and Federal Attorney George
IL Cohen.
All three parties—Chapman the
state government and the federal gov-
ernment —agree that the case is still
pointing toward the United States
Supreme Court. Decision will be ask-
ed of these specific points:
Must n federal prisoner accept a
presidential conuihitr.tiou?
May a state government execute n
prisoner whose sentence is still un-
fulfilled?
WRITES ANOTHER BRIEF.
Chapman is busy writing another
brief similar to that he issued last
Friday charging President Coolidge
with n mis-nse of constitutional par-
don power which the bandit claims is
for clemency nnd not to be used as an
expedient to hang a man.

MEN FROM ANIMALS
Detectives Goff and Hice broke up a
“three ring circus” Tuesday before an
accident befell the performers.
Marihuana had done its worlt when
the officers arrived.
One of the pair “an animal train-
er” was pursued by three of his pink-
hued charges. His friend was trying
to climb a “giraffe’s neck.” which was
in reality a tree in Ben Milnm Park
ou West Commerce street.
The third was struggling with a
“den of wild lions.”
They thanked the officers for res-
cuing them from an apparently in-
evitable fate.

THE MAKE-UP ROOM
DOUGH can be weighed moulded and shaped
into loaves by hand but this is not consid-
ered a very sanitary method at RICHTER’S.
The Southwest’s largest most modern and sani-
tary bakery has an extensive system of machinery
as shown above by which the dough is weighed
shaped proofed and moulded into loaves all auto-
matically.
This machineiy is of the very latest type is
white throughout and always scrupulously clean.
The cleanliness of this room and the entire bakery
has been held as an outstanding example for
bakeries throughout the country to pattern after.
RICHTER’S is open at all times for inspection
on the part of the public. It is always a pleasure
to conduct visitors over the three floors to see the
various operations that result in the finished loaf
of perfect BUTTER-KRUST.
When RICHTER'S is so care-
ful can you afford to take a
chance? Because of several
close imitations the WRAP-
PED loaf is BUTTER-KRUST
insurance.
