There are ideals and ideal places,
so people say. And the honest-to-
goodness “Ideal Place” of this Tyler
town is Watts Food Stores, Incor-
porated, which is now located in the
beautiful, spick-and-span new two
story brick building facing Gary
School campu,s at 720 South Bois d’
Arc Street—out there where there is
plenty of parking space—and where
traffic jams and perplexities are not
so “jamming and perplexing” as
they are down town.
You know Uncle Sam Watts', the
head man of this establishment. Ev-
erybody knows him—he was an hon-
ored public official of this county for
twelve years; handled millions of
dollars of our public monies—and got
to calling everybody in Smith coun-
ty by his first name. Uncle Sam’s
the very same youngster who operat-
ed the Clarence Saunders x„ore on
North Broadway. Boy, they did give
service there — a wholly satisfying
service, a frienu-making, business-
building service.
Now then Uncle Sam Watts has
got the Watts Food Stores, Incorpo-
rated, going on South Bois d’Arc—
at 720—in the new two-story <.rick
building facing Gary School cam-
pus. There is a lot of p«...,,ig space
out there, pretty trees, wide streets.
And that store—-it is just a dream
oi loveliness inside—bright as a new
mirror—conveniently arranged for
easy shopping, even by the kiddies
when the busy housewife may send
for things—and with- all this conven-
ience and neatness, one can see the
extreme of sanitary precautions ev-
erywhere—see it in such manner as
to make him hungry for the Watts
Food Stores products. Uncle Sam’s
formal opening is tomorrow, Aug. 15.
The whole neighborhood out in that
part of the city is mighty proud of
their incomparable Watts Food Store
—and they are going to get over
there and give “their store” a friend-
ly congratulatory send-off. Uncle
Sam and “Aunt Sam” both want to
see you.

«OW GOETH THE 10-YEAR
PETTER FARMING PROGRAM?
Fellow asked us the other day
what has become of our 10-year bet-
ter farming program. He thinks- we
are all busted up on that. But ~ he’s
wrong. The part of it that is being
carried out by the W. H. D. women
and 4-H club boys and girls is go-
ing fine—just marvelous—-ahead j of
the schedule. We have an educational
program in the county that is going
along pretty well -on schedule—only
one “superficiality” on that, namely
too touch athletics for the mpriey,
time and student effort that it costs
too much for the ultimate good it
—
does. Then, think about it: we have
got better dairy cows and more fine
pastures—more self-supporting far-
mers— more improved and modern-
ized farm homes—improving rural
-sanitary conditions— closer contacts
and finer relationships between town
people and rural people—a finer so-
cial status as between communities
The food and feed crops are fine
and that means that livestock will
be fat and meat animals more num-
erous—and that the farm folk who
have had sense enough to provide
these things against so much cotton
will not be hungry, as hath been the
case in former times. There is only
one “black spot” on the schedule of
PIGGLY WIGGLY
No Woman Likes a Substitute Unless
It’s Really Better
Here you do not have to take private brands as substitutes of
the Pure Nationally Known and used Foods, and every wom-
an knows that she cannot depend upon the quality of “Pri-
vate Brands.” Piggly Wiggly Stores never offer you “Private
Brands” of Foods—but only the best at the lowest prices al-
ways. You will save lots of money this week end by coming
to Piggly Wiggly. More than twenty-five big Special Items on
sale at the Lowest Possible Prices, and we are all your own
home people, too!

accomplishments for the 1.0-year bet-" be in economic distress if he de-
ter farming program—and that is
cotton. And, by the way, the status
of cotton at present is going to work
for the ultimate good of the better
farming program; for the cotton
status is driving it into the heads
of Mr. Farmer that he will always
pends on cotton, except as a surplus
crop.

plies as any other first-qualify tire. Directly under the tread, in every
ALLS! AT E cross section, you will see another layer of fabric. Some people
call it a ply. But Sears, Roebuck and Co., the National Better Business
Bureau and the majority of good tire manufacturers call it a breaker
strip. We are willing to accept the standard set for the tire industry.
