ro The Shamrock Texan:
I am writing this brief article for
|lone purpose: I am Interested in the
{welfare of every man, woman, boy
| and girl In Wheeler county.
I X am not a prohibitionist. I am
a “teetotaler,” but I have no lnten-
■ tlon to lecture anyone. I am not
■trying to outline a set of rules to
■regulate my neighbors' conduct, or
■prescribe what they should eat and
■drink.
liana teetotaler because I know
Rhe physiological effects of alcohol
Bn animal organisms. They are
Bainly depressed after a period of
Bfcmulation and toxic effects appear
Wien alcohol is taken In large quan-
tities, causing diseases of the stom-
j§|ch, liver, kidneys, heart, blood ves-
sels and nervous system. Heredi-
Itary consequences of chronic alco-
I holism Is in most cases not so
[ much the cause as the effect of a
disordered nervous system. Acute
| alcoholism may be the result of a
single excessive dose.
How about alcohol for "social
| serving;’’ I found years ago that I
[ didn’t have to drink booze to act
I "funny.” I am a talented fellow.
I am not too smart when I am so-
ber. The fact Is we need all the
common sense we have to get along.
Numbers of good men have lost
their positions because they drank
too much “booze.”
Someone will say what is the mat-
ter with Hofmann? “Didn’t he
write an article for repeal?" Yes,
I did write an article in favor of
repeal but if you will remember and
read said article you will find that I
wasn’t clamoring for booze. I also
stated that I didn’t drink it and
my advice to all was to abs’ain.
No, I am not regretting my efforts
In favor of repeal. If people want
to drink intoxicating beverages that
is their business. I wouldn’t like
for the citizenry to enact laws forc-
ing me to eat and drink anything
which interferes with my health
and general welfare.
Ever so often I hear the follow-
ing statement: “I can quit any time
I want to.” Yes, we all have some
ego, but the trouble is we*aren't in
a state of mind to consider our
weakness. "No chain is any strong-
er than its weakest link." We are
all prone to boast more or less about
our "will.” But lis’en my dear
friends: Will does not sensate. That
Is done by our senses. It does not
cognize; that is done by Intellect.
It does not crave or loathe an ob-
ject of choice; that Is done by the
affections; It does not Judge of the
nature, value or qualities of object;
that is done by intellect. It does
not moralize on the right or wrong
of an object or an act of choice; that
Is done by the conscience. It does
not select an object to be chosen or
to be refused and set it out dls-
tince and deflend.
"Will" is only the power we pos-

the ground connections are loose

Now my dear friends I will not

I will close with the following

MOVIE NOTE?
At The Texas
A man's picture, with thrills, fun
and drama, is “Under Pressure," in
which Edmund Lowe and Victor Mc-
Laglen are reunited as co-stars, on
for Tuesday shows only. “Under
Pressure" Is said to be the most
unique and colorful picture these fa-
vorite stars have made, supplying a
background never before attemp’ed
by the film world. This background
is furnished by the tunneling oper-
ations beneath a New York river—
and the two stars are seen as "sand
hogs" battling perilously against the
black waters which surround them.
Only one hour of the twenty-four
can auch workers spend under the
river for that Is as much as they
can endure of the terrific pressure.
But they draw high pay for that
one hour, and In the other 23 hours
there Is plenty of time for love and
life and laughter. Such, say ad-
vance reporis, is the theme of big
human drama.
One of the most extraordinary
settings ever used In screen history
is seen in this picture, an exact re-
plica of a modern under-river "bore”
many hundreds of feet long.
In addition to the two stars of the
picture, an unusually well • balanced
cast Includes Florence Rice, Marjorie
Rambeau, Oeorge Regas, Roger Im-
hol, Oeorge Walsh, Warner Rich-
mond, Ol1n Howland, and James
Donlan.
Raoul Walsh, famed for such hit
pictures as "What Price Qlory?",
"The Cock-Eyed World” and “The
Big Trail." directed “Under Pres-
sure,” and Robert T. Kane Is listed
as producer. The original story was
written by Borden Chase and Ed-
ward J; Doherty.

You'll Enjoy Cooking On
The New Electric Range
It'i Modern
IF IT'S ELECTRIC
A new electric range will make your daily cooking duties a pleasure
rather than a drudgery. More than a million women cook electrically,
and this number is increasing daily because the modem electric range
is speedy, clean, economical and time-releasing.
This modem method of cooking affords you a means of cooking a
complete meal without the usual bother and exacting care that old-faii
ioned methods require.
You can place an entire meal in the big oven —set the time and
temperature controls —and leave home, if you wish, until dinner time.
There are many other advantages to the use of an electric range. Let on*
of our salesmen tell you the entire story of this modern method of elec-
tric cookery.
