MODERN SCIENCE may not be
fearful, but it is certainly won-
derful to behold. Take engineer-
ing science for instance. Last Fri-
day in New York State sand hogs, i
boring a new $37,500,000 vehicular |
traffic tunnel, met in the murky |
darkness twenty-two feet beneath)
the Hudson river. The tunneling,
i s, starting out from opposite
s. of the river over a year ago, •
finally broke thru the last bit of
earth and rock, that separated the
two openings,
When they were fifty feet apart,
the two ends of the tube lining
were found to be all of three-eighths
of an inch off center. The engi-
neers corrected this miscalculation,
so that the walls will meet jam up
at the seaming. Once before,
when famous Holland tunnels far-
ther down the Hudson, were bored,
the engineers made the same mis-
calculation.
ANOTHER MISCALCULATION
+ of recent years is the idea that
wealth can be produced without
labor, simply by government or
private manipulation of money,
wealth or funds. Thus we read in
an exchange editorial that these
dear United States have 87 “soak
the rich” organizations, 34 organ-
izations promoting the "share the
wealth” idea, 117 social justice
movements, and 57 old age pension
plans, and the password to every
one of them is "Get it out of the
tax-payer.’
To which high and noble motto
Sauce whole-heartedly subscribes
—but where to find the tax-payer?
Our idea is that about ’steen mil-
lion of tax-eaters should be con-
verted into tax-payers, when and
if there will result a distribution

Duck Hunters Are Given Rigid Rules;
30 Days of Shooting For Fall Season
Washington, D. C., August 1.—'
Outlining the “most rigid regula-
tions in the history of American
wild-fowling,” J. N. (“Ding”)
Darling, chief of the biological sur-
vey, today said the nation's duck
hunters will have 30 days of shoot-

and California.
Darling said the regulations had
been approved by President Roose-
velt and that he expected them to
save 50 per cent of the increase in
ducks this year.
New Regulations.

Which reminds of the recent ma-
gazine article concerning John D.
Rockefeller, who recently passed
his ninety-second birthday, and
who has hopes of attaining a cen-
- “of age. Once one of the most-
ln.ed individuals in these United

cupies a place of esteem because
of his benevolence and his service
to humanity. The hatred arose
over his ruthless methods in
stamping out competition, and

The old auditorium of the Ro-

A brief, but interesting business
program is being arranged for Sat-
urday morning session, which will
be held at Avalon. Following the
noon luncheon, the afternoon will
be given over to golf at the Brady
Country Club, and various other
forms of entertainment. Preceding
the Saturday meeting the Heart

Avalon in conjunction with the an-

dance.
The Brady meeting is to be given
wide-spread publicity, both thru
the Texas Press Messenger, offi-

association, and thru daily newspa-

Not only is a 100% attendance of

being extended members of other

There is much controversy over
whether Rockefeller has been a
benefit or a detriment to the na-
tion and to humanity. Certain is
is that had all independent dealers
survived, they would not have been
able to perform the great humani-
tarian services for the people that
Rockefeller's concentrated wealth
has enabled.
At any rate, now that Rockefeller’s
life may be viewed from a dispas-
sionate standpoint, it would appear
that the man who was once re-
garded as the brains of a giant oc-
topus organization, is, after all, a
quiet, benevolent old gentleman,
interested in the welfare of the
nation and his fellow citizens, and
who hopes to live to round out one
hundred years—perhaps just to see
what will happen next.

THE LAST HAPPENING of con-
sequence in the Heart o' Texas
was the great regatta on Lake
Brownwood last Saturday and Sun-
day. Sauce just knew the moment
Carl Blasig got to Brownwood that
Old Sleepyville would wake up—
or that he would set an alarm clock
under its ancient pillow. The at-
tendance at the regatta was some-
what reminiscent of Brady’s July
Jubilee—proving that people like
to go somewhere for entertainment,
even if 17 miles of dusty thorofare
intervene.
Auto Races Carded
At Park, Aug. 11th
Sport fans of this city will get
their first glimpse of motorcycle
races on the Richards Park half-
mile track, the afternoon of Au-
gust 11th, when Rural Murray, Tex-
as motorcycle king, will bring a
group of riders to Brady.
There will be seven events, com-
posed of races of various distances.
There will be two classes of riders,
professionals and apprentices, with
prizes to be awarded the winners.
Some of the best known performers
in the Southwest will race here, in-
cluding Murry himself, holder of
two world’s records on the San An-
tonio two-mile speedway.
V. A. Taylor, brother of Vernon
Taylor, ace pitcher of the Brady
Turks in 1932 and 1933, will be
among the riders. Others of pro-
minence will be Jack Richardson
of Houston and J. B. Jones of Dal-
las.
Murry holds world’s records on
San Antonio track, negotiating the
two miles at average speed of 114
miles per hour, and an average of
104 miles per hour for 50 miles.
He raced for years out of Ranger
and Breckenridge, where he for-
merly made his home.

Ask Brady Sponsor at
Sweetwater Rodeo
The City of Brady has been in-
vited to send a sponsor to Nolan
County’s 5th Annual Rodeo, to be
held at the Double Heart Ranch,
near Sweetwater, August 16-17-
18th. The invitation has been ex-
tended thru Grady Shipp, secretary
of the Sweetwater Board of City
Development. Every possible cour-
tesy is assured the sponsor, and a
most enjoyable time is assured for
the three days, with the entertain-
ment committee planning many
special features just for them. The
sponsors will be guests at Sweet-
water’s finest hotel, with no en-
trance fee or other item of expense.
In addition, they will be given op-

Brownwood insisted upon impound-

erase the stains of travel enroute
to the lake. Brownwood should
now build another such great lake

Thus, when folks say "Fourth of
July,” they involuntarily add “and
the Brady July Jubilee.” And when
someone says “August 4th,” they
will be tempted to explain, "the an-
nual Brownwood Regatta.” This
is an admirable theory, and should
be elaborated upon until each
month of the year will see some
county in the Heart c’ Texas with
a “date." This would provide a
year-round program of fun, frolic
and amusement, such as would
center Texas’ and the nation’s
