Outside Evidence
A newspaper photographer was busy at the Boston Navy Yard
securing photos of the battleships getting ready for Mexican serv-
ice, and the picture above is one he secured for his paper.
ft would have been impossible for us to get such evidence of
Texaco quality and service, so we secured one of the pictures from
the photographer.
Naturally, active service means hard usage, difficulties and
dangers. So there is keener inspection of storrS ind more micro-
x scopic examination of goods.
It is quite natural, therefore, tor the photographer to have
snapped his camera just as Texaco Products were heinf hoisted
aboard the U S. S. "Nebraska."
Texaco Quality and Service are known where the demand is
for high quality and careful, prompt service.
Look for the Texaco Products in your own town. You can
recognise them by the Red-Star-Green-T emblem of "made in
Texas" fame.
They are just as valuable for you as they are for the navy.

Baby Injured
Tuesday about 8:00 a.m. Mr*.
Ruth Sherrod was stringing her baby
in a swing chair swung from the
ceiling of the living room, the string
wnich supported the chair parted
and the baby was bounced several
feet into the air and fell foward
striking its head against the corner
of a box and fell to the floor. The
baby was knocked unconscious for a
few minutes and a severe though not
serious scalp wound inflicted. The
mother thinking the little one killed
ran to the door and screamed. Mrs.
Walter Slaton, phoned for the doc-
tor, and the neighbors ran to offer
.what sssistance they might before
the dut:io iff!?*'' _ ^
By the time the doctor arrived the
baby had regained consciousness,
and was crying. The wound was
dressed and the little one was com
fortable. It is doing nicel/ at this

J. B. Smead, and his healpers are
on the ground and doing all they
can to get everything in condition
to go to work.
Tnis preliminary work will require
several days It it hardly piobably
the actual work on the well can be-
gin before the middle of next week
When the well is uncapped, the
work of cleaning out will at once be-
gin* The well will first be reaaed
out and a test made for oil at its
present depth, for the driller is of
the opinion that paying oil was
struck before the work was shut
down.—Childress Post
