FRANCITAS
( By Mason Hirsh )
Stores to Close for Deutsch-
burg Fair, Oct. 6
Fall and complete line of Work
Shirts at prices to please you.
Boyd's Variety Store.
Walter Willrodt, of Omaha, is
a recent arrival in Francitas.
R. H. Von Kessel has been
among those present in Edna for
the past three days.
Wm. F. Schwind, who recently
was East, where, rumor hath it,
he was engaged in lining up an
oil proposition for the Great
Francitas District, is again at
home. However, a ciam has
nothing on Mr. Schwind when it
comes to telling of things ac-
complished, and all the commu-
nity knows is conjecture, and
that amounts to nothing.
W. H. Wingart is this year's
representative from Francitas on
the Grand Jury, which is now in
session. While not particularly
enthusiastic about serving, Mr.
Wingart remembered his duty as
a citizen, (just between us folks,
•Judge Green wouldn't excuse
him) and will be found in Edna
for several days, helping to levy
justice with an impartial hand.
Miss Ethylin O'Sullivan, of St.
Louis, recently paid a short visit
>to R. H. Von Kessel, her uncle.
Unfortunately, the vaunted cli-
mate of this section was conspic-
uous by its absence, the heavens
weeping copiously for an entire
week. While rather disappoint-
ed, Miss O'Sullivan anticipates a
return visit during the winter,
at which time we trust an entire-
ly different impression of the
country hereabouts may be cre-
ated.
One of the most important ar-
rivals in Francitas in recent days
was a member of the aristocracy,
the bluest blood of dogdom flow-
ing through the veins of a setter
pup which now follows at the
heels of W. H. Wingart. The
puppy journeyed from far off
North Carolina, unchaperoned,
and seems thoroughly satisfied
in her new environment. The
aristocratic young lady seems
exceedingly anxious to make her
debut this December when quail
will be legitimate game and need-
less to say, her owner is just as
anxious for the arrival of that
time as she is.
On Monday night, September
25th, Mr. William Koch, long a
resident of Francitas, departed
upon the long voyage from which
there is no returning. Mr. Koch's
death, which occurred while ho
slept, followed a long and pain-
ful illness, all the trials and ago-
ny of which he bore with great
fortitude, his customary cheer-
fulness at all times prevailing.
Mr. Koch celebrated his fifty-
ninth birthday last July. He was
born in Berlin, Germany, comins
to the United Statos while in his
early twenties. While not unex-
pected, his passing comes as a
distinct blow to all who knew
him. He was universally admir-
ed and respected and memories
of Mr. Koch are destined to be
attended by regard and affection
to an unusual degree. The sym-
pathies of the community are ex-
tended to the family of one of its
best citizens.
Mr. J. M. Moor has moved
back into the Kabola house.
Misses Anna, Elsie and Edith
Evers visited Christine Lenare
Sunday.
Mrs. Ellis Jensen, of Turtle
Bay, spent the week end with
her brother at the Teacherage.
Mr. and Mrs. M. F. Osburn ate
Sunday dinner with their daugh-
ter, Mrs. Harbison and family.
Don't for get the Deutschburg
Fair on Oct. 6. Bring your
friends along too, and have one
day of enjoyment.
Mr. and Mrs. Tschersich left
Monday for Cleveland, Ohio,
where they will make their home
with their daughter and family.
Messrs. Hurta, Kuba and Karl
Scmidt leave this week for the
mines in Colorado. Louie Hurta
dan Mr. Kopnicky have already
gone. We regret to see our
number diminish.
We are sorry to hear that the
Matagorda County Commissioner
at Palacios was approached by
some of the Deutschburg citizens
and asked to fix up his end of the
road adjoining Deutschburg and
he refused to lend any aid, say-
ing the road wasn't used. I
wonder how we get to Palacios,
and how the mail carrier gets
around. We hope he will realize
our condition and come to our
rescue.
We the undersigned merchants
realizing the importance of com-
munity building, agree to close
our places of business at noon,
Friday, October 6th, and at-
tend the Deutschburg Commu-
nity Fair, if possible:

| New Way Flour
TAKES A THIRD LESS
We are often asked to explain why
we direct users of "NEW WAY" to
use 13 legs, It is because the qual-
ity of NEW WAY makes it go that
much further than ordinary flour-
other things being equal.
NEW WAY makes the lightest, whitest biscuits,
rolls and bread, the finest, tenderest cakes, the flaki-
est pastry. New Way flour is packed in saxoline
sacks—dust proof, damp proof.
ALWAYS SPECIFY THE NAME NEW WAY
