In the window of the Crosby-1 lighted towns on the way down,
ton Review is a poster showing ““ a oinD,,“
the number of traffic deaths in
Texas since Dec. 24. Statistics
kept by the Department of Pub-
lic Safety are phoned to the Re-
view by the Crosby County Sher-
iff’s office. By Wednesday morn-
ing 55 deaths had resulted from
holiday traffic accidents. White
crosses had been placed on 55
of the figures on the poster on
Wednesday with more expectea
by this morning, Thursday.
So far there nave been no
“motorcides”, or traffic deaths, in
Crosby County. Members of the
Sheriff’s office and the Review
staff sincerely hope we don’t
have to paste on a white cross
representing one of YOU before
the Death Watch ends Sunday

The predicted death total dur-

Glen Moody had a funny thing
happen to him Christmas Eve.
The phone rang and he brightly
answered with, “Merry Christ-
mas."
The voice on the other end of
the line said, “Merry Christmas,
heck, where have you been?”
Taken aback, Glen replied,
“Why, I’ve been around here.”
Owner of the unknown voice
suddenly realized this was the
wrong number.
. From now on Glen plans to
identify himself before answer-
lng the phone cheerfully, “Merry
Christmas”.

Hallie Smith’s daughter
for Christmas stated that Crosby-
iy
ton was the most beautifully
lighted of all the towns between
here and Oklahoma.
Faye Steen said, "We can be
very proud of our Christmas
lighting. We went to Corpus
Christi for Christmas and I na
promised the children they
would see lots of Christmas

Father Howlett Has Unusual Hobby
For Priest: Thoroughbred lumper
Father John Howletl, a small, bers of the church. For example,
he said, “We now have a new
double altar so that we face the
people. This way, we, too, can
see who’s coming in late.”
Until recently all Catholic
priests said mass without facing
the congregation, which involved
considerable neck action in look-
ing back over their shoulder at
the people.
Father Howlett stated that in
addition to now being able to
stand facing the people, the Ecu-
menical Council has also given
permission to use the vernacular,
which means the language com-
monly spoken by those in the
church. In Crosby County this
means Spanish. He said that the
secret parts of the Mass from the
Canon are still said in Latin,
however.
Fatrer Howlett said, "By fac-
ing the people and speaking in
their language, we enable them
to participate more intimately in
the sacrifice of the mass.”
He pointed out that the Catho-
lic Hall in Crosbyton is not a
church, but is serving temporar-
ily as such until a church build-
ing can be constructed, which
he hopes will come about within
the next year. When a church is
constructed, the Catholic Hali
will be kept as a community
hall. It was moved here aboui
two years ago from St. Joseph’s
Catholic Church of Lubbock ana
has been completely redone In-
side, repainted and auditorium
seats installed in addition to the
new double altar.
Father Howlett, who was born
in Ireland, works at SI. Joseph’s
in Lubbock along with serving
Lorenzo and Crosbyton from St.
Michael’s Catholic Church in
Ralls.
At different times in his life
he has spoken a number of dif-
ferent languages. His native
tongue, Irish, Latin, English,
Spanish and a bit of Greek he
still speaks. He studied at Gre-
gorian University in Rome and
We didn’t see a single town well
decorated as Crosbyton."
Faye added that her sister
came to Crosbyton from Arling-
ton for Christmas and reported
no place as pretty between here
and there.
Our Christmas decorations ana
lighting are well worthy of these
compliments, so all of you who
were responsible consider your-
fiell awarded blue ribbons.

A teacher in the local schools
once had her students draw Na-
tivity scenes as art woik before
Christmas. One child drew a pic-
ture of an airplane, the pilot,
Mary, Joseph and the Babe.
The teacher asked the child to
please explain why the pilot
was in the picture.
The child answered, “Well,
you know . . . Pontius Pilate”.

In another classroom assign-
ment using words in sentences,
the word to use was “soda”. One
student wrote, “We have a De
Soda automobile”.

Typographical errors are the
thorn in the side of newspapei
people. Usually they’re not bad,
sometimes they’re embarrassing
and once in a while they're fun-
ny. Lately we’ve noticed items
that read “duming the holidays”
someone went somewhere or oth-
er. If the holidays exhausted you
as much as they did me, that
might strike you as funny.

After his graduation Horn Tex-
as University, Gallimore enter-
ed the Air Force Officers’ Train
ing School in June, 1963, and re-
ceived his commission Dec. 23,
1963.
After he was stationed at Wa-
tertown Air Force Base, New
York, he dropped a line to Miss
Johnson and they began corres-
ponding. She suggested that the
next time he had a chance to
visit Washington, D. C., she
would give him a tour of "that
house,” referring, of course, to
the White House.
Gallimore took her up on the
offer and went to Washington
one weekend in November. He
arrived Saturday afternoon at
the southwest gate where he i-
dentified himself, then was
taken on a tour of the White
House by Lynda Johnson.
Gallimore said, “First I saw
the diplomats’ reception room,
which is an oval room and was
where Franklin D. Roosevelt con-
ducted his fireside chats to the
nation. Oddly enough, in this
room is the only fireplace in the
White House which doesn't work.
For FDR’s chats an eiectric log
was used.”
He saw the sets of china used
by each of the Presidents, which
he said were a pretty good indi-
cation of the tastes ot the times
and the preferences of the Presi-
dents. For example, he said the
china used in the 1880’s was
“atrocious.”
The more recently used china
includes a set featuring a gold
rim, which was rarely used tie-
cause each time a dhmerplate
was washed $12 worth of gold j
was lost.

with the libraries and with the |

Mrs. Brashear was Postmas
ter of the Petersburg Post Office
until she retired in 1955 after 17
years of service. Her husband
owns Brashear’s Hardware and
appliance store and site now as-
sists him as needed. They havt
two sons, Keith of Hale Center,
and Jack, who is employed in
the local post office, and four
grandchildren.
Littlefield retired from service
in the local post office Oct. 12,
1963. Mrs. Littlefield was em-
ployed, also, in the local office
for a number of years. They
have one daughter, Mrs. Pai
Berry, and two grandchildren.
Mrs. Sager served as Postmas-
ter of the North Las Vegas Post
Office from 1947 until 1953 when
the government, in an economy
move, made the North Las Vega»
Post Office a sub-station of the
Las Vegas, Nevada, post office,
j She continued as clerk there un-
I til her retirement after 20 years
of postal service in February o*
this year. A widow, the former
Mrs. Carl Stephens married Lew-
is Sager of Crosbyton July 1,
1963. After her retirement they
are making their home here.
Mrs. Sager has four children,
Mrs. Rohm Ropes and Carl Ste-
phens of San Francisco, Calif..
Mrs. Robert Peterson and Lewis
Stephens of Las Vegas, Nevada,
ana six grandchildren.
The three recalled their exper-
/
iences recently over a cup oi
coffee and agreed that working
in the postal service is very re-
warding and enjoyable.
Discussing how each happeneu
to enter the postal service, Mrs.
Brashear said, “I wanted a job
and knew there was an opening,
so I applied and got the job.”
Mrs. SageT became involved
with postal service djring the
illness of Mn Stephens when an
opportunity tame up for a sub-
stitute while he was on vacation.
She began by carrying the mail
to the Las Vegas airport. Then
during World War II when there
were openings, she had already
had the experience, so she took
the civil service examination
and was employed as a clerk.
Her boss urged her to take the
examination for Postmaster,
which she did. She didfn't hear
from her exam for two yehrs and
had almost forgotten about it.
Then there was an opening as
Postmaster of the North Las Ve-
gas post office, and she founa
she was first on the list for the
appointment.
Olen said, “I took the exami-
nation out of curiousity, witli
no Idea of a job. We had four
hours to complete the exam, but
I finished in an hour and a half
and had fhe highest grade. At
the time I was interested in

Construction of the new drive
in window on the south side of
the city office was expected this
week. Built for the convenience
of city utility customers, the
new, drive-in window allows cus-
tomers to pay their bills from
their cars and eliminates the
parking facility problem.
In the event the city office is
closed or there is no one at the
glassed-in window, there is »
deposit slot conveniently located
for depositing payment of bills.
Construction of the new win-
dow and remodeling of the city
office, totaling about $2000, be-
gan about four months ago. The
interior of the city office has
been remodeled, including mov-
ing a partition, closing of win-
dows and erecting new doors in
the front of the office.
The drive-in window is pro-
tected by a metal canopy and
features a side wall of cinder
blocks in a geometric design.
The attractive canopy provides
protection for the customer from
rain, snow, sleet or hail.
The new drive in window de-
posit slot may be used on week-
ends when the city office is clos-
ed, a further convenience to city
residents.

I gave him almost 32 years set-
vice before his retirement.
Each of the three pointed out
that they started out in small
post offices. Mrs. Sager said,
“Actually I became interested at
the age of seven when I would
go to the post office with my
mother in Indiana and watch
them pitching mail into the pig-
eon holes. 1 always dreamed oi
doing that myself.
She said her first post office
building was a long, narrow
building, not over eight feci
wide.
Mrs. Brashear, who served 11
years as Postmaster at Peters-
burg plus six years as clerk, re-
called, "I had to buy the fixtures
for the post office. Now, of
course, they rent fixtures and
all and even have custodian ser-
vice and a coffee bar for em-
ployees at Petersburg.”
She remembered hand-can-
celling all the mail until the vol-
ume of mail reached the amount
necessary for the Petersburg post
office to be furnished a cancell-
ing machine. They had to count
the mail to be certain it had
reached the count necessary.
They all recalled that salaries,
at first, were dependent On the
amount of stamps sold.
Mrs. Brashear pointed out, in
cidentally, that the title is Post
master whether the person hold-
ing the position is a man or a
