have no trouble getting it started
once it is formally introduced.
The plan originated as a step in the
interest of more efficient handling of the
old relief depots where the people ganged
in lines and where the extra overhead of
handling the goods, rentals and other ex-
penses were added to the budget whirl■
was meant for actual relief.
The food stamp plan puts the goods
on the shelves of regular merchants who
are prepared to handle the grocery trade
and who cutt off the overhead that before
characterized handling of food for relief
i purposes, and at the same time permits
more money to go into actual relief.
The stamps issued to families are paid
in exchange for the groceries at the stores
of their choice, and the government re-
deems these stamps for cash.
With the need for the government to
provide for the people gradually being
reduced, couple with the fact that work
is more plentiful, the food stamp plan is
also a good method of breaking down the
difference between the old bread lines and
the pay window lines and the days when
prosperity will reduce the need for any
great amount of caring for the relief eases.

sensible for nior* than one incorrect insertion.

The Food Stamp Plan and
Its Function
The inauguration of the food stamp
plan in Grayson will be a distinct advan-
tage both to those who are on the buying
end and those who are on the selling end.
Noi only will it give the merchants ad the
same even break at the business of selling
certain articles permitted under the plan,
but will also permit the purchaser to trade
where he pleases.
Details of the plan are simple and are
easily workable and the parties using it

With the creation of the largest in-
land lake in the world through completion
of the Denison dam, there is no reason
why we should not have a great opportuni-
ty for amphibian planes and training
place for aviators. This country is to train
something like 800,000 men in flying and
this means a vast amount of activity fields.
If the engineering college for aeronautics is
created in this country the flying field at
the dam site would be an easy stej).

The fact that plans are being pushed
to secure for Renison a garment manufac-
turing plant is good news, since we have
the building and the geographical laeation
for such an industry. Denison ought to be-
noino the most important industrial center
In this part of he state. The cheaper rate
mi power being possible through the com-
pletion of the Denison dam should be a
great inducement.

RADDN THE FARMS
Although' 65 per cent of their
homes have radios, only 8 per cent
of Texas farm boys and girls use
them to listen to educational
broadcasts.
This was the charge made by-
Texas radio research expert, Who
warned that future school teach-
er must assume the job of instal-
ls" “dial consciousness” in their
rural charges.
Director of the Univerity's Bu-
reau of I! -earch in Education by
Radio, Dr. Chapman said that
while a recent bureau survey
showed Tezas ’tein age farm
youth largely prefer “hill billy"
music, another study proved con-
Dr. A. L. Chapman, University of
clusivey that all school children
ten be guided to a preference for
the good programs available.
Dr. Chapman also charged
teachers with the responsibiltiy of
aiding pupils in detection of prop-
aganda, by teaching discrimina-
tion between good and bad sources
of information.—McKinney Cour-

years operated a shoe repair shop

lor two weeks and although he has
teen here only ithree days, the vis-
it with old friends have been three
to put your friend out of busi-
ness. If all of us would scatter
arond our trade a littiie, we would

perform a friendly deed where
it will do the most good.

From our impression of these
two men, and they are typical of
several we know, they consider
that the man who has a business
and a son who is interested in same
that man is rich, no matter what
the turnover, big or little, may be.
One of the tragedies of life is
that of seeing one’s earning and
interests of life fade away from
him as he comes to the day when
' he can not longer care for it and
j must turn it over to others than
! his own son.

businesses are incorporated—they

and hearing about what Denison
is planning for the future. Down
at F*red Bulloch’s place he showed
me some of the old photos he has
when we were youngsters togeth-
er and they carry me back to days

getting old but I do love to be

Along the News Beat
A friend who says that he has
a son who does not take interest
in the business of the father has
brought hinn to the conclusion that
he will not expand in his business
or make modern day improve-
ments that be believes would be
beneficial as well as to add new
attractiveness to the place. He
explains that while he has reach-
ed an age where he need not come
down to his office until a late*
hour in the day if he chooses,
finds that at an age when he
needs to be taking things a little
easier, he finds the grind is keep-
ing at the task like it did thirty
five years back.
He takes the position that if a
son is not interested in the busi-
ness of the father then most of
the incentive to keep on is taken
away.
Another father who has quite
an extensive business has one son
who is not interested in any fa-
shion in the lines of activity en-
gaged in by the father. Yet that
is the only child and the large
business interests of the father
if it all is turned ovgr to the
son at the demise of the father,
And while it is hard to see a
man’s business forced to the clos-
ing point because of no male child
or girl to carry it on, it is still
harder to see a merchant forced
to close up because of the iack of
patronage and interest in his well
doing by the people of the town.
Had you ever figured it out
that if we do not patronize the lo-
al man who is classed as the in-
dependent or home town mer-
chant, that it will not be long un-
til all of them will be forced out
of business? This of that angle
when you go about trading and
spending your money for supplies
Think of the welfare of others
and how you would like for people
to patronize you should you be
forced to compete with those who
are able to take losses in selling
merchandise and make it up
through a big reserve or though
the fact they have other stores
to cover the losses because they
have no competition practically
and therefore sell for more and
help take rare of losses in sister
stores where they sell cheaper to I
get the business from the local in-
dependent man until he is forced |
to close.
And that’s 'exactly why we are
against any letting down of the
laws in this state whereby large
concerns could freeze out the lit-
tle man any more than they are
doing.
So, when you go about buying
bargains, don’t forget thaf you
may at the same time be helping
