It’s nothing short of a miracle/ when you've
spent a long day in the chill winter wind,
to drink down a friendly bottle of delicious,
sparkling Pearl Beer. See how it warms you
from the inside out. That s because it s more
robust in body, heavier-brewed for the ex-
acting demands of cold-weather enjoyment.
At a meeting of the Eastern
Star tonight, Mrs. Marie Ham-
mond, the matron, is compli-
menting the past patrons and
matrons with an especially ar-
ranged program. A refreshment
plate with appointments will
feature the star colors. Chicken

Beware of Chain
Letter Writing,
Says Postmaster
• Despite frequent warnings
to the public in regard to plac-
ing so-called “chain letters” in
the mail, a considerable volume
of this type mail is still being
circulated in all parts of the
country. Of late various chem-
es soliciting defense savings
stamps have flooded the mails,
some of these going so far as
to include the notation, “Gov-
ernment approved.”
Postmaster Engelking points
out that chain letter schemes
of this type are strictly a vio-
lation of the Postal Fraud and
Lottery Statutes, and any per-
son whose name appears in
chain letters may be denied
further use of the mails under
the above statutes.
This should indeed be suffi-
cient for patrons of the U. S.
mails to beware of chain let-
ters.

in peace and happiness and in
full accord and harmony with
the entire community. To their
matrimonial union two sons

ton, and Allison, of Cat Spring,
# who together with their mother
and two grand children survive

high in the estimation of his
friends and neighbors, honest
and sincere in all his undertak-
« ings, a loving husband, kind
father and true friend.
His grave was beautifully
decorated with flowers testify-
ing the love and affection of his
many friends. Our profound
sympathy to the bereaved ones,
in this their greatest hour of
sorrow.

On entering the reception
room, Mrs. Rudolph Knesek,
Jr., met the visitors who regis-
tered, and then were shown
through the building. Besides
the reception room, there is a
chapel, a small passage fur-
nished with a writing table,
leading to a bed room for visit-
ing relatives, a ladies room.
There is a display room, a room
equippped for embalming, and
another room beyond the chap-
el. In this room, the departing
visitors were served coffee and
home-made cookies by Mrs. R.
R. Knesek, Mrs. Lidge Knesek
and Mrs. W. C. Motl. Mr.
Knesek, his son, Rudolph, and
W. C. Motl greeted their friends
during the hours. Many baskets
and bowls of beautiful flowers
and potted plants had been
sent in from out of town and
town friends, and a number of
gifts were received. The build-
ing is constructed of insul brick
with an interior finish of celo-
tex. The lots have been filled in,
and plants and shrubs have
been planted, with cement
walks and drive. On one side of
the building stood the ambu-
lance and nearby, the old
hearse, which Mr. Knesek has
had for twenty-eight years, and
which formerly was owned by
an establishment in San An-
tonio, and later by an under-
taker in Hallettsville. Mr. Knes-
ek has had many opportunities
to sell the hearse and has been
offered large amounts for the
lanterns or lamps, on it, but
has refused to sell.
This modern and attractive
funeral home is one that all
Wallis is proud of, and Messrs.
Knesek and sons are to be con-
gratulated.
