TIME
Calendars and cIocks are most appalling things. My new cal-
endar. with its clean page, confronts me cn my office wall. It chides
me with all my wasted yesterdays. It challenges me with new op-
portunities—three hundred and sixty-five bright, clean, precious days,
priceless as the crown jewels of a king. It is eloquent with hope and
faith in a magical, mysterious, unfathomable future. It spurs me on
like a relentless taskmaster. It enheartens me with promises of new
dawns—new chances in the game of life. It cheers me • with the
fiaoaghtthat ea~;h of us has at his disposal all the time there is. The
ftft man has only twenty-four hours a day. He cannot hoard it.
The poor man has the same. He can waste or use it, and with the
new dawn his bank account is replenished with twenty-four new
hours.
Benjamin Franklin, the apostle of thrift, is credited with the
jsayfng: "Time is money." It is far more than that. It is opportun-
ity for self-improvement, for service, for pleasure, for work and for
achievement,
Arnold Bennett, in his interesting book, "How To Live on Twen-
ty-Four Hcurs a Day," said: "Time is the inexplicable raw material
«£ everything. Without it nothing is possible. The supply of time
x truly a daily miracle. You wake up in the morning and lo! your
purse is magically filled with twenty-four hours of the unmanufac-
tured tissue of your lite. It is yours. The most precious of pos-
sessions showered upon you in a manner as singular as the commod-
% itself." Bennett urges us to budget our time, to use it wisely as a
priceless heritage.
Americans complain that they never have time. Mexicans have
frfenty of time. Teh Chinese float in a placid sea of time. The cal-
endar 's the same length in all languages.
The new schedule cf labor of the NRA has brought its problems
•f leisure. Idleness is the greatest test of character. We're pleasure-
mad. We run ourselves to death seeking recreation—and most of it
is i*wreck"-reation instead of re-creation. Speed! Speed: Speed! Our
ancestors achieved success, happiness and tranquility at ten miles an
hour and we are annoyed if we miss one section of a revolving door.
The brilliant and cynical Robert Ingersoll said: "Life is a nar-
rcrsr vale between the cold and barren peaks of tv/o eternities." It is
a pleasant valley or a gloomy gulch as we make it.
So time marches on—and 1935, with its promise, its opportunity,
Its new hope for communities and for humanity, presents the ever-
iwarring miracle of time. Precious days are ours—magic jewels on an
endless chain—miraculous material of life, labor, laughter and love.
—Hubert M. Harrison in East Texas Magazine.

Appointment of Jake Schwartz of
Uva-lde, Texas, and reappointment
of Judge S. A. Lindsey of Tyler,
Texas as directors of the Federal
Land Bank of Houston was an-
nounced today (January 9) by Gov-
ernor W. I. Myers.
| Both appointees will serve for
three-year terms which commenc-
ed January 1, 1935. They will also
serve during this period as direc-
tors of the Federal Intermediate
Credit Bank of Houston, the
Production Credit Corporation of
Houston, and the Houston Bank
for Cooperatives.
These three institutions and the
Federal land bank make up the
permanent units of the Farm
Credit Administration of Houston,
operating in Texas.
In each of the 12 Farm Credit
Administration districts there are
seven directors. Three of these,
kaown as "local directors," are
elected by borrowing associations—
production credit associations, na-
tional farm loan associations, and
cooperative associations borrowing
from the bank for cooperatives.
Production credit associations have
recently elected one director in
each of the districts, whose term
also commenced January 1, 1935,
for three years.
BLACK-DRAUGHT
"Such a Good Laxative," Says Nurse
Writing from her home in Fes-
tus, Mo., Mrs. Anna LaPlante says:
"I am a practical nurse and I rec-
ommend to some of my patients
that they take Black-Draught, for
it is such a good laxative. I took
it for constipation, headache and a
dull feeling that I had so much. A
few doses of Black-Draught—■ and
I felt just fine."
Bccanse so many people know from
baying used it that Thedford's Black-
Cransht Is a good, purely vegetable laxa-
tive, millions of package oi it are sold
every year.
Three other directors,,- whose
terms expire in consecutive years,
are known as "district directors"
and are ajppointed by the Governor
of the Farm Credit Administration.
The seventh director is known as a
"director at large," and is also ap-
pointed by the Governor.
Judge Lindsey was named the
director at large, while Mr.
Schwartz was appointed a distict
director. Judge Lindsey helped to
organize the Federal Land Bank
of Houston in 1917 and has served
first as its treasurer and next as its
secretary. He has been a director
of that bank since 1923.

When You're Freezing
BUILD A FIR
ANYBODY knows it is sound com-
mon sense to build a fire it you're3''
freezing.
Looks like anybody would know thai
if their business is frozen the thing to*
do is build a fire under it.
;You build a fire under a business byj
advertising, with newspaper advertis-
ing and job printing.
.Turn on the heat with handbills, cir-
culars, letters, folders, bill inserts.
'Add more fuel in the form of of news-
paper advertising. Your customer^
;warm up, your business begins to thaw,
out, and pretty soon the blood flows
normally.
iWe can do the whole job for you.
Good newspaper advertising, every,
week, even if-it is only an inch. Add
to that two or three red hot circulars
in the form of handbills featuring a
real bargain, and your business has
begun to thaw. Keep adding fuel week
by week, and watch the life blood of
your business flow again.
