CANDIDATE CARDS
The Gazette is prepared to print
any quantity of candidate cards
on short notice. Prices are eco-
nomical and all work is gu
Most Texans are well enough
informed upon the history of their
state to know that five flags have
flown over its imperial domain,
since America was first discovered
by Columbus. First was the Span-
ish, then the Mexican, then the
Lone Star flag of the United
States of America, and which was
replaced by the flag of the Con-
federacy when Texas seceded
from the Union in 1861, and now
again the Stars and Stripes of the
IT. S. A. But comparatively few
know that Texas has been under
some form of government for the
past 370 years. The first govern-
or of Texas was Domingo Terran,
away back in the year 1661. After
holding office for only a few
months, Terran gave it up, and for
several years Texas then largely
a wilderness, was without any
form of government. In 1718 Don
Martin de Alarconne became gov-
ernor, and since then some one
has continuously been at the head
of Texas’ government, either as a
governor or a president. The fol-
lowing list of governors and pres-
idents from 1661 down to the
present were secured from rec-
ords on file in the State Capitol

COMMUNITY CO-OPERATION really means. How it
will benefit them and held make them more prosperous.
Garden Plans for Jack County.
230 women and girls of Jack
County have made plans with the
home demonstration agent for
year round gardens. Even in the
coldest weather it will be possi-
ble for these club «n{p}$t>era to
have fresh green vegetables by
the use of a hot bed. 'ntis may be
converted into a cold frame in the
summer and used near the Well
where the rinse water used in
laundering the family clothes
may be used to keep the vegeta-
bles green in summer.
The prosperity of
PROSPERITY 1
YOUR TOWN means YOUR
As your town grows, opportunities broaden. If your
town stands still, you stand sitil. COMMUNITY
PROSPERITY means INDIVIDUAL PROSPERITY;
community growth means individual growth.
You can’t grow a giant oak in a flower pot—you can’t
%
expect a. whale to live in a puddle—and you can’t grow
more prosperous in a town where the people do not co-ope-
rate in fostering community growth 1
When you buy elsewhere you are not fair to YOUR
OWN HOME TOWN.
You are impeding its progress 1
Keep YOUR MONEY in YOUR OWN HOME
TOWN where it will dou YOU the most good. The suc-
cess of YOUR' LOCAL MERCHANTS means as much
to YOU as it does to them.
Catch the COMMUNITY BOOST SPIRIT 1
Every little penny spent with YOUR OWN HOME
TOWN MERCHANTS helps YOUft TOWN to grow
in strength and prosperity. ,
When you allow the benefit of your purchasing power
to accrue to other communities, Y
