ducted into the service of the
city, J. L. Deutsch and C. L.
Haynes. W. C, Gray was re-
elected city attorney.

Most any thing you might
want in the notion line at
Boyd's Variety Store.
Jno. D. Bowden, proprietor of
the Crescent Drug Store, has
been decorating the sidewalk in
front of his place of business
with a number of show cases and
other articles of furniture. The
reason for the unusual display
has been they are having a new
floor laid and as these are not
"cellar" goods, they were tem-
pararily transferred to the side
walk.
Word comes from Houston that
Miss Vida Williams and Mr. W.
H. Martin, were married at the
First Methodist church in Hous-
ton last Saturday afternoon.
Miss Williams will be remember-
ed by a number of Palacios resi-
dents as the niece of Mrs. Bon-
nie Cates and all join in wishing
for her a life of usefulness and
happiness.
The ladies of Mrs. Dismukes'
class in the Christian ISunday
school gave a surprise party Sat-
urday afternoon for Mrs. Jack
son, one of their members. Mrs
Jackson, who was recovering
from an illness, was completely
surprised and said the "visita
tion" had done her more good
than her medicine. In these
days of rush and push the older
ones are so apt to be set aside
and overlooked. After an hour
or so of delightful chatter the
visiting ladies served a dainty
lunch.
Miss Madge Clement and Miss
Nora Mae Boyd went to Pierce
Saturday to join the throng of
Christian Endeavorers who were
there assembled in a convention.
They returned Monday accompa-
nied by Misses Audrey Clement
and Louise Berry who went to
Pierce Friday. The young ladies
report a most successful meeting,
a splendid program, inspirational
and educational; and the hospi
tality of the Pierce people un
equaled. Miss Boyd and Miss
Clement were entertained at the
Borden ranch home.
After the regular business ses-
sion of the 0. E. S. Tuesday
night the social committee, Mr.
and Mrs. R. J. Hill and Mrs.
Nester took charge and furnish-
ed one of the jolliest entertain-
ments of the year. Tables were
arranged and spearing peanuts
with a hatpin caused gales of
merriment. It looks easy but
try it. Cherry shortcake, whip-
ped cream and delicious coffee
were served.
