What a Denison Parent Says.
Editor Gazkttezr
Dear Sir:—Water works, light
plants and franchises of like magni-
tude are the absorbing tonics inci-
dent to a municipal election. There
ire other questions, however, which,
while seemingly unimportant, are of
vital interest to the mass ot our peo-
ple. One of these is the school
book question. The purchasing of
expensive school books is quite a
hardship on poor people. A paltry
sum to the rich—the few dollars
much to the less fortunate.

ALL PAPER
A representative of one of the [largest wall
paper nou*e« in Texas was here recently and
said: “L. Roulain ha* one ot the be*t stock* that I
have seen in Texas.” Tnis is a splendid compli-
ment and well deserved. It the people of Denison
could realize what a magnificent stock Roulain has,
they would never buy a role ot wall paper at another
house. If you intend to do anv papering, it is a
duty you owe to yourself to visit Roulain’*. He has
paper suitable for a palace or the humblest home.
With an abundance of stone with-

certainly it foolish to tend off to
East Texas for timber to do tempo-

permanently. Dr. Acheton’t plan
it to use Denison rock, not Louisi-
ana pine in street improvement.
