how to handle hia leisure, Dryden
said, is "bankrupt of life, yet prod-
igal of ease."
With challenging calls on every
hand for men and women to invest
some of their time in community
building, in church, school, chari-
ty, or self-improvement, we hear
the complaint: "I don't have time."
Each one of us has all the time
there is—just twenty-four hours
every day. Some have the rare tal-
ent to use time well.

Celebrating the 20th anniversary
>f the organization, the booklet is
dedicated to R. Marvin Kelly of
Longvicw, first president and one
of the organizers of the East Texas
Chamber of Commerce.
"Several thousand issues of the
lublication are being distributed
this week," Hubert M. Harrison,
vice president and general manag-
er, announced. "We feel that it will

a-he really know East Texas and
'ove to live here, but to veterans
and ethers who are looking for a
progressive, forward-looking sec-
tion in which to locate."
The brochure pays special at-
tention to the progress of the re-
gion in agriculture, dairying and
livestock, forestry, petroleum, and
industry.
"Perhaps nothing so stamps the
caliber of a man or governs his
procreas than the use he makes of
his leisure time. In primitive socie-
' ty and in our own pioneer day*,
men and women were forced to
work most of their waking hours
to get the bare necessities of life.
Leisure can be a snare and a delu-
sion. The saying that "idleness is
the devil's workshop" is still al-
armingly trae. Bernard Shaw said
that "the secret of being miserable
Is to have leisure to bother about
whether you are happy or not."
The best cure for boredom is to'
keep busy. ¡
"Statistics have proven many,
times that a decrease in hours of j
labor is likely to be followed by an
increase in crime. We hear little
men speak of killing time. And
what foul murder that is indeed—1
to kill the precious substance of
oar fleeting lives. Great scientists,1
writers, artists, architects, and the!
great brains that have given us|
our progress have grieved that;
tftere is not more time for the
achievement of their dreams.
Man needs leisure and he is wise
who knows how to use it. A fish-
ing trip, an afternoon on the golf
links, golden hours with hobbies,
an outing in the woods or a quiet
evening with a book can mean
soothing re-creation of mind and

local need for, and scarcity of,
iivestoek feeds and vegetable oil
by thousands of communities here
and abroad, the great necessity for
increasing cotton production is very
apparent."
Because it supplies buman food,
livestock feed, and tiber, cotton
supplies a greater variety and
number of needed products than
any other crop farmers of this sec-
tion can grow, the mill manager
added. It also is our most depend-
aide source of cash income for the
grower.
"While it alwayy pays to follow
practices that will increase the
yield per acre from acreage of good
land planted to cotton in a balanced
farming program, there is an even
greater incentive this year to se-
cure high yields and larger total
production," he said. "Increased
predactien per acre will pay good
dividends to the producer himself,
and to the world in larger supplies
of food, feed and clothing."

erans priorities to surplus commod-

committee bill had incorporated his
proposal giving to the veteran first
priority on all commodities not
wanted by the Federal government.
Under present law, first priority
goes to state and local govern-
ments, and to non-profit institu-
tions such a hospitals. By the time
it comes the veteran's turn, mater-
ials have been pretty well picked
over.

Congressman Johnson said he
planned to do all in his power to
support the bill giving enlisted
men the same terminal leave grants
now restricted to officers under the
much-criticised "caste system."
All service men—officers and en-
listed men—are entitled to 30 days
leave each year. But the officer was
allowed to accumulate up to 120
days, which he was given at the
time of separation; while the en-
listed man bad to use his 30 days
during the current year. If enacted
the legislation will be retroactive.

Schedule for Field
Days Is Announced
COLLEGE STATION, Apr. 12—
A schedule of nine remaining labor j
saying device field days to be held'
this spring has been announced by
the farm labor office of the Texas
A. anil M. College Extension Serv-
ice.
During April county shows will
lie held at Weatherford, April 10;
Tahoka. April 12 und 13; Hartley,
April It ; Stinnett. April 17; Chil-
uivhs, Apiil 18; Gainesville, April
26; and a show for the 21 counties
of Extension Service District 7
will be held at Comanche on April
9.
May dates include May 14 at
Sherman and May 17 for the Den-
ton County field day at Denton.
I-ate in March field days were held
at I.inden, Pittsburg, Mineóla,
Center and Woodvillc.
At the field days farmers and
ranchmen are having an opportuni-
ty to see a number of handy con-
trivances, such as a portable saw
mounted on bicycle wheels and
powered with a gasoline engine; a
homemade post hole digger, a post-
able weed mower, a fresno and a
fertilizer distributor. These are be-
ing taken to the shows by R. B.
Hickerson, assistant state farm
labor supervisor for the Extension
Servi-e. Since his truck space
limited, Mickcrson also takes to the
shows small models of gadgets
such as a land levelcr, cow stanch-
ion fastener, bag holder, and two
V-drag terracers, all in miniature.
In addition, county agricultural
agents are urging farmers and
ranchmen to bring to the shows
devices which they have made or
adapted to save time and energy.
At some, C. W. Simmons, Exten-
sion forester, exhibits his portable
saw mill and shows devices for
logging and other farm forestry
operations. He also demonstrates
treating of fence posts.
Mr. Hickerson is being assisted
in this work by M. R. Bent ley, Ex-
tension agricultural engineer.
