An Open Letter
To my friends:
In view of recent developments
and after much deliberation, I have
decided to remain in the dry goods
business here in Schulenburg and, con-
sequently will not go into the news-
paper business as announced in my
letter to you the latter part of Sep-
tember, 1934.
My store will be restocked just as
quickly as possible with new Spring
merchandise from the same nationally
advertised firms we have dealt with
during the past ten years, and I'll
be on the job as usual trying to sup-
ply as many of your needs as I can.
I want to assure you that I greatly
appreciate the many favors you've
extended to me since I came to Schu-
lenburg and I hope you'll continue
to give me opportunities to serve
you in the years to come.
Very sincerely yours,
Myke Klein.
ROOSEVELT'S MESSAGE TO
CONGRESS
WHAT THE COLD STORAGE
VAULTS SHOW
President Roosevelt, in his mes-
sage to Congress on January 4th., put
The following is a report of the
Cold Storage Vaults of America on
Dec., 1, 5-year average, Dec., 1 ,last
year and Dec., 1, this year. The out-
look for butter and milk products
for higher prices is good and the
egg outlook is good for the coming
year. Turkeys show an increase of
quite a lot but that is due, we be
lieve, to the drouth and that most
farmers sold their turkeys for the
Thanksgiving market this year in-
Commodity Dec. 1, 5-yr. ave.
Butter, creamery, lbs. 83,455
Eggs, shell, cases 2,814
Eggs, frozen, total lbs. 74,850
Turkeys, lbs. 6,914
Beef, frozen, lbs. 45,839
Pork, frozen, lbs. 74,975
Pork, pickled in pro. of cure 186,905
Total Meats, lbs. 570,853
Lard, lbs. 56,153
stead of waiting for the Xmas mark-
et. Cattle and hogs do not look good
for the coming year, too much in
storage.
So, we would plan ahead for plenty
of chickens for the egg markets and
if possible the dairy cow for the
dairy products. These two items
should show a good market with good
prices.
Remember, always add three
naughts (000) to the end of all fig-
ures to get the exact amount.

would take care of 3,500,000 of the
unemployed and the states would
take care of another 1,500,000.
The work to be created would vary
and the purpose would be to get
away from the dole system now in ef-
fect. He said to make a happy and
prosperous nation we must not let
the unemployed work a few hours per
week raking leaves or picking up
paper in the streets and parks and
get cash for that type of work. It
kills the spirit of the people and
makes them lose their self-respect.
Work must be undertaken that will
be useful and a permanent improve-
ment such as clearing the slums in
the great cities, in rural housing of
several kinds, in rural elecrification,
in constructing National Highways to
handle modern traffic, in elimination
of grade crossings, in the extension of
C C C camps, and in a program to
prevent soil erosion.
This work will not be an effort
to compete against private capital
but will only be done where private
capital is lacking. He stated that the
government wanted to get away from
competing against any kind of private
capital or enterprise.
The President made no. effort to
outline a complete program, but did
promise that he would propose leg-
islation covering unemployment, old
age insurance, as well as "benefits
for children, for mothers" and other
types of social security.

The M. E. Ladies Aid met with Mrs.
Hollis Massey for the December meet-
ing with a good attendance for the pre
Christmas season.
The meeting was opened with the
song "O, Come All Ye Faithful".
Prayer by Rev. Wissemann.
For the Scripture reading President
Foitik chose the beautiful Christmas
Story given us by Luke.
Minutes were approved.
The treasurer reported a nice bal-
ance on hand. The following named
made contributions to the birthday
bank: Mrs. Lena Foitik, Mrs. G. A.
Baumgarten and Mrs. F. S. Foitik.
Anyone desiring pot scrapers, sew-
ing kits, or rust remover please con-
tact any member of the Aid for same.
Upon motion the Aid voted to ex
pend $5.00 for the purpose of Christ-
mas baskets for several needy fami-
lies. Mrs. J. F. Lessing and Rev. W
E. Wiessmann to purchase and place
same.
After some discussion it was deeid
ed we would not take part in spon-
soring the P. T. A. Play to be given
for the second time, since the pro
ceeds would be so small, being split
three ways.
Rev. Wissemann gave us an inter-
esting lesson and will continue with
same from the Seventh Chapter of
Mark for the January lesson.
Lunch was served buffet style from
a beautifully appointed table, where
Mrs. Potthast of Weimar presided at
at the coffee urn
The program feature was a playlet,
"Peace on Earth", which was present
ed in an interesting way by Rev. and
Mrs. Weissman and Chas. Vogt, Jr.,
assisted by the singers, Mesdames
G. A. and Susie Baumgarten and
C. A. Vogt.
An interesting word building con-
test was enjoyed by all.
We were happy to have as guests
for the afternoon Mrs. Henry Laas
and Mrs. Adolph Potthast, Grand
mother and Mother, respectively of
our little hoe

BE THRIFTY, BE WISE, SAVE THE DIFFERENCE.
Mrs. Harvey Clark
Antonio Sunday after spent
week-end here with Mrs. I.
of Mr. Wm. Haas, Sr., president, who
has served this school in this capacity
for over twenty-five years; Mr. E. C.
Schulze, Secretary, who has been a
school teacher for several years
and has given most of his time to
the welfare of the child; and Mr.
Louis Jochen, a very congenial and
promising school man.
The faculty consists of Mr. A. O.
Bartram, principal, who is a teacher's
college trained and university trained
man with over 17 years of success-
ful experience in teaching, and Mrs.
Vera W. Bartram, assisstant, who is
also a successful, experienced and
college trained teacher.
The school is a public free school,
whose district has no local tax for
maintainance. The teacher's salaries
are entirely paid with State funds.
Also most equipment and necessities
are purchased with State funds. The
District, however, has a building bond
tax. The school term is of eight
months. The present term's enroll
ment is 58.
Besides offering the regular re-
quired courses of study, the Frey
burg school children are given drills
in parlimentary routine, interscholas-
tic league events, public speaking,
debating, etc.
The first half term is climaxed
with a Christmas celebration, which
was this year given on Friday, Dec.
21st. It proved to be a very success-
ful and enjoyable event. At the end
of the term a closing program is ren-
dered in which all the children parti-
cipate. Besides various literary and
dramatic activities, certificates of per-
fect attendance, reading, graduation,
etc., are awarded the children. Last
term the seventh grade was 100 per
cent successful in passing the coun-
ty wide examination for graduation
from the elementary grades. The ad
ministration sanctions a high stan-
dard of work and behavior at all
times in this school, of which all pa-
trons should be justly proud.
