We sat down the other day
under the shade of a tree to
rest. Near us was a large cac-
tus in full bloom. The honey
bees were extracting the sweet
nectar from the blossoms. Di-
rectly we looked down at our
j feet and there were two nnts
dragging a grain of wheat to
their storehouse. From this we
got a lesson. There we sat in
idleness, not even using our
thinker. Instantly we arose and
went to work with renewed
vigor and with a now determi-
nation in our heart—Albany
News.
What was the matter? Had
you squatted on an ant hill?—
Fort Worth Record.
Wo wasn't squatted on no
ant hill, and we hadent drunk
I no booze, and it taint none of
I nobody's business nohow. It's a
nice out that a newspaper man
can't steal away and sit down
in some coney nook away from
the busy den and think a beau-
tiful inspiration without some
dog-on newspaper jumping up
niul insinuating that he has
been ntunj? by an ant.

Progressive Political Bun-
combe—In refusing to order a
reduction in grain rates re-
quested by the Public Service
Commission of Kansas and oth-
er western states, the Interstate
Commerce Commision, giving
its reasons for such refusal,
called attention to increased
cost of railroad operation and
had this to say, "There have
been many increases in labor
costs compared with the pre-
war period. In 1916 the aver-
age compensation per hour paid
to railroad employees was 29
cents. In 1922 it was 60. %
cents, an increase of 109.6 per-
cent." So-called "railroad lead-
ers" are behind and promoting
the campaign of candidates for
public office who advocate
"progressive political action,"
and they are asking the far-
mers to join them in the under-
taking. Progressive political ac-
tion has but one meaning and
purpose to the railroad em-
ployee, and that is more wages.

bunch to help advertise your
town.

Because Lake McClelland,
f.5 miles east of Amaiillo, is ex-
cusively populated with rough
fish or stunted game fish, fish-
eries crews nre giving it a com-
plete overhaul.

dersized white crappie and sun-
fish.

nel! catfish obtained from fed-
eral fish hatcheries.
Mental Health
Needs Increase
The scope of mental henlth
needs increases daily as our
population continues to grow.
During 1964, some 84,000

help for soma type of mental
disturbances, if statewide pre-
dictions prove accurate.
"They will come from every
county, every city, every in-
come and social and education-
al level. Some of thene people
nre your neighbors and friends.
Next year we can expect even
more troubled people to need
help, according to Miss Patsy
Reynolds, specialist in family
life education at Texas A&M
University.
Many people are interested
in helping these people and in
knowing what steps can be tak-
en to prevent as well as treat
mental disturbances. The State
Mental Health Planning Com-
mittee has been studying the
situation. Under the leadership
of Hale County Judge C. L.
Abernathy, the committee is
] Hearing completion of recom-
mendations for a statewide ef-
fort to meet this challenge.
I Mental illness is a disease
I which can be treated and pre-
vented and is not a disgrace,
says Miss Reynolds.
I "The disgrace comes only
when people do not care enough
|to do something constructive to
' help these troubled people,"
she emphasized.
