me as your president. I hope
you will give your next presi-
dent the same cooperation. And,
too, your Manager has a defi-
nite outline of work for the
Chamber next year. This is
necessary in order to accomplish
things that are good for Bas-

new president by offering your
help in accomplishing this work.
I take this opportunity to
thank you again for your co-
operation this year, and to wish
you a Merry Christmas and a
Happy and Prosperous New

Very truly yours,

"T W Davidson ha.- been ap-
pointed to head up n fraud in-
vestigation and detection pro-
gram fur the Austin District,"
O'Dell said, and 1 is full time,
fust line duty will be to de-
tect, apprehend, stamp out and
prevent fraud throughout the
di trict. A statewide program
of this nature has been in ef-
ft -v for year*, but in line with
the legislature's recent action in
tightening up on tin- penalties
in proven, willful misrepresen-
tation case-, we are now level
ing down in earnest.
"Davidson ha just recently
completed an intensive training
prog; am in fraud investigation,
which wan conducted jointly by
our -t.ate office in Austin and
by the special investigation staff
of the Department of Public
Safety. As a result of this
training, lu will bring the lat
est investigative technique into
his work in the Austin office
area
"Although Mr. Davidson's
headquarters will be in Austin,
special emphasis will be placed
in Bastrop and other cities that
do not have a full time T. E. C. :
; office, but have scheduled claims
service," O'Dell said.
Military Services
Held For Sfc.
Ernest Glass
Full military services were

Funeral H< me and at the Ce-
llar Creek Cemetery on December

Chaplain (Lt. Col.) Ramming of

Sfc. Class died at 8:55 p. m.
on December 12, at Brooke Ar-
my Hospital, Fort Sam Houston.
San Antonio, where he was sta-
ti ned, as the result of a heart
attack suffered an hour earlier.

Wolfenbarger of Bastrop and
Mrs. Herman Watts of Red Rock.
Sfc. Class was born at Cedar
Creek on March 16, 1913, the
son of Hiram and Addie Wat-
son Glas;
As 1U61 draws to an end, I
feel that I should make a report
to you as to the progress we
are making at your Chamber of
Commerce.
This has been an exceptionally-
good year at the Chamber. The
members have supported it, and
for this we are grateful. With-
out cooperation and suppt ,'t, we
would not have been able to re-
organize as we did and secure
the services of our Manager. Ha-
rold Goerner. I 'feel that we
are fortunate in having a man
of his caliber working for us.
He has a clear knoweldge of
Chamber activities and is con-
First Class i sUintly striving to improve our
the Hasler status as a Community on the
move and ready for progress.

There Sunday
Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Evans
of Elgin are being honored by
their children on their fiOth wed-
ding anniversary.
Open house will be held for
them at the New Century Club
building from 2 to 5 o'clock on

membcred in Ba.- trop, as all nine
of their children attended the
public school • re.
They request no gifts, please
But we must be prepared for it.
This has been our constant en-
■ deavor all year. We know that
we will receive only what we
i are prepared for in the way of
industry and a payroll. Wo are
determined that we will be pre-
pared and that when our big
chances come along, we will have
I the ground work done and not
have to take a back seat to oth-
er towns.
In terms of progress we would
! like to call your attention to the
things we now have. We have
a new industrial site close to
town and on a busy highway
(Austin to Houston) and this
will be developed to suit indus-
try's needs. We have a Retail
Merchant's Association organi-
zed with a Credit Bureau com
bined and it is working smoothly.
We have a larger membership
Among the friends and rela ! than we have ever had before
nnd we expect to increase this
even more in the future. We
lave- made contacts with peo-
ple and organizations that may-
develop into something for us in
the future. We have not missed
a meeting or a conference that
was important to Bastrop. In
other words, Bastrop has been
represented ami counted when-
ever there has been a gathering
of towns and cities for any pur
pose whatsoever.
As you well know, farming
and ranching i- our biggest lo
cal industry, ami we are seek-
ing in every way to be of ser-
vice and help to the people en-
caged in agriculture. If any
member has suggestions as to
h w we can be t serve this
group, please let us know.
One ti ing we must always re-
' member to do i- to speak well
