CLEAN.IT WEEK NEAR AT

I ooking forward to our regular
Fasti r, and the health of our people,
I am again calling attention to the
fact thr.t there is much trash to b-

Just look around your own corner,
and see if you do not find plenty to
do. The next seven days should be
the busiest of our life.

This should be a co-operative, civic
campaign that the city government,
the schools, and the l.ions ( lub anl

Hut after all, the responsibility fo(*
getting the job done rests upon the
citizens, the householders, both pro-
perty owners and tenants. Vacant lot
owneis, particularly, are asked to do
then part. If their lots are neglecteo,
they are a plague on the residential

Joe Brooks, highway maintainance
engineer, is conducting a series of
courses in safety and first aid in se.
veral central Texas towns, carrying
out a safety program recently insti
tuted by the State Highway Depart-
ment Mr. Brooks, with a number
of other employees of the highway
department, took the course on safe
ty and first aid given under the di.
rection of the American Red Cross,
and was among the first few to re-
ceive a certificate to give instruction.
Part of a new safety consciou-i-
ni-s which has pervaded the depart-
ment since workmen's compensation
became effective Jan. 1, the worker-
are studying standard courses of th •
American Red Cross.
K. M. Belcher, director of the de-
partment's insurance division, sa'fi
the courses were planned so that em-
ployes might give first aid to them-
selves and to fellow workers— and
also t" persons injured in highway ac-
cidents.
He believes the corps of laborers,
engineers and other personnel—most
of whom are on the road daily
might be of great service in treating
accident victims.
Aside from that, and from the de
partment's view, he said statistic*

duces accident incidence among group
workers from 2-r> to ,'to per cent.
About half of the employes are now
receiving instruction and others will

The newest class is that of I t

ants in the headquarters office at

Bastrop is in line for a new post of-

made by Lion Paul D. Page, at the
regular meeting of the Bastrop Lions
Club held in the State Park Refec.
tory Monday night.
The receipts of the Bastrop post
office passed the necessary amount if
$10,0110 in L9.17. thereby placing Bas-
trop in a position to ask for the
building, Lion Page .said, and that the
request had been made to Congress-
man Lyndon Johnson.
Lion president Oren Eskew presid-
ed over the business meeting of the
club, during which Lion A. R. Henry,
State Park superintendent, announced
tentative plans for the celebration of
the CCC Anniversary the first of
April, and Lion J. V. Ash announced
the banquet to be given by the Bas-
trop County Wildlife Association at
the Refectory on Friday night. Lion
Frank (in en suggested that the club
urge local citizens to keep the rent
down on rooms and apartments in
town for the benefit of the people
coming in for the next few months.
High rents have caused several fatn-
ilic- looking for apartments to go t<
Smithville and Giddings. Bastrop wel-
comes newcomers, and this fact should
he demonstrated by helping them to
find suitable, reasonable locations in
town.

By day, C. O. Pietzch is a drag,

goes home, he becoim s a "hobbyist".
His hobbies cover a multitude of
thing.-. At present it is wood carv-
ing and jotting down poems which he
composed while operating the heavy
machine digging mads, foundations
and gravel pits.
The Bastrop County Wildlife As-
sociation will hold a banquet tomor.

the National Wildlife Week, from
March 2<> to March 2(5, according to
J. X. Ash, president of the county
organizat ion.
The banquet, which will be held in
the State Park Refectory at 8 o'clock
will be open to anyone wishing to at-
tend an interesting meeting. Sixty

Strangely enough, it was the drag ;
line that started him on his hobby of National Wildlife Week was insti-
wood carving and cabinet making. In tuted by a proclamation issued r> .
his job, he has dug out of the ground cently by President Roosevelt and ;s
many strange things. Once he un- a rally of all friends of outdoor Ame,-
earthed a prehistoric mammoth. This ica. Women's clubs, sportsmen, farm

he was digging for gravel near Col-! listed in the program to bring about
unibus.
Old I ng Carved
Three years ago, while working >n
a roadbed near Ea.-t Columbia, he
dug into a cedar log. He estimated
that the log had been under the ground
for at least .'10 years, since the road
was one of the oldest in Texas. Its
beauty, rather than its age, impress-
ed him and he decided to take it to a
shop nearby and have it sawed. The
saphad decayed from the log, leav-
ing only the heart.
Pietzch took it home with him,
and started carving. He had never
done that work, but before he was
thiough he had made numerous small
articles, tables and a violin.
Thumping on a box he made of
the char, smooth wood, prompted him
to make a violin. He had never made ti
violin and couldn't even play one, but Ing
he was never one to worry about such
trifles, he said.
X iolin Is Made
There was a Stradivarius in the
family, and he followed its lines, and
added a curve here and there "just 'a
be different." When he had finished he
had a violin that not only would play,
hut according to some of his violinist
friends, was an excellent musical in-
strument.
His home at 4(.lo0 Polk is full of
tables, book ends and other articles
which he has made, some of them from
the cedar log. He worked on the vio.
lin for almost three months, using a
saw, a pocket knife and sandpaper.
He has lived in Houston for about
seven years, and was born in Color-
ado County Houston Chronicle.

BY I'EI'E SHADY
XX'e understand they are building a
good road out through the Wattersoa
( ommunity. XX'e don't know just, who
is rt sponsible for this movement, but
we do know that the whole of Bas-
trop should stand up and take off
their hats to the persons who brought
this about. XX'e have a strong belief
that dynamic. industrious County
Commissioner Karl Callahan had a
lot to do with it. We also believe our
good Commissioner, Arthur Fuchs,
lent a mighty helping hand. VVe als
know a numbei of other good citizeriN
did all they could to bring this about.
XX'e understand that they got a very
substantial amount of help from th"
Federal Government.
Now that last sentence above
throws us off on another rampage.
Why ? Because we have to run every
few days to keep from hearing some
one belittle President Roosevelt and
his efforts to bring about equitable,
living conditions for the American
people. XX'e make tatters of news,
papers and magazines every few days
because some one makes bold i
scathing denunciation of our good
President. We almost twist the knobs
off our radio every few days because
some bold die harder buys a part of
the atmosphere and procedes to fill
the waves with hitter tirades against
the one man in all the high places
in the world who is devoting all of
1 is time and telent- toward a goal
that simply means a fair and reason-
able livelihood for all of '.he Ameri-
can people.
1 wish every person in Bastrop
County, who is hostile toward the
President and his efforts at recover
would got on a side road out there in
the Watterson Community and bog
up to his ears. Then to have somr
good neighbor tow him over on th
road that Mr. Roosevelt made pos
sible and let him come to town. I
wonder how many of us here on Main
Street would be willing to go out
there in the country and try to pro-
vide for a family. I wonder what we
would do or what we would think if
one of the family were desperately
sick and we needed a doctor or some
medicine and we couldn't secure eith.
er because the road was too bad.
Folks, we haven't been as sympathe-
tic with the people of the rural dis-
tricts as we should be. We appar.
ently only want them to produce ma.
terial, market it, and then come to
town to spend their money so we will
get our part of it. So I say, if for
no other reason, Main Street shoul f
refrain from ever speaking dispar-
agingly of the present President of
the United States just because he
made it possible to build a to.town
road for XVatterson.
Now that wo are started, some one
had better stop us. Look all around
Bastrop and see what the Federal
Government has done for Bastrop
since Mr. Roosevelt took over its
management. Look at that road out
to Paige; no better nor prettier any-
where. I.ook at that State Park and
the Tree Army. Look at that athletic
field down there at the school; even
that cement tennis court. Look at
our paved streets. Look at the doz
ens of families right here in town
that are living and spending Itecause
of the Fedora! aid that has come ti
Us. Gee, you old Sour Pus.-, if you liv •
in Bastrop and make bold to criti
eize the great and good President
t". • Uniled well, when we
started this little column we resolved
that when wi couldn't say anything
good about anybody wo just wouldn't
say anything Therefore, old Sour
Puss, we refust t" talk about you.
