SPRING SHRIMP SEASON
OPENS THIS WEEK; 200
WORK AT CRAWFORDS
HENRY BARRETT, SUPT., SAYS I .nrfl I 'IVyoutS Foi"
SHRIMP ARE EXTRA FINE
FOR TIME OF YEAR
County Meet Held
The spring shrimp season which' ^ MtenfjT and^ThSic'wort in
is generally of about 60 days dura- preparation for
tion, opened up this week and is
a few days earlier than the aver-
age, stated Henry Barrett superin-
tendent of the Crawford Packing
Co., this morning when we visited
the plant.
Mr. Barrett also stated that they
had about 15 boats in operation and
approximately 145 pickers are being
used and 45 employees working by
the hour at the canning plant.
Boats started out the first of the
week and are bringing in each day
just about all that can be taken
care of.
The canning plant began opera-
tion Wednesday morning with about
7000 pounds and on this Thursday
morning had something like 12,000
pounds.
The shrimp are of unusually fine
quality, many of the Jumbo size,
being brought in and the 1936
spring season promises to be one of
the best we have ever had says, Mr.
Barrett.
State Pres. Am.
Legion Auxiliary
Visits Local Unit
Mrs. Tillman Jones of Post, Tex-
as, State President of the Amer-
1 iean Legion Auxiliary, made a sur-
prise visit to our local Auxiliary
Unit last Thursday evening. Mrs.
Jones was making a tour of the 9th
District with Mrs. C. C. Jopling,
of La Grange, Texas, 9th District
Committeewoman, and the local unit
is very thankful that she selected
Palacios as one of the Units on
which she called.
An oyster supper was arranged
at the Pier Cafe in honor of Mrs.
Jones and Mrs. Jopling. The tables
were beautifully decorated with
poach blossoms and a napkin ar
rangeient representing minature
sail boats. The supper was delicious
and splendidly served.
Mrs. Jones gave a very interest-
ing and instructive talk on the aims
an purpose of the American Legion
Auxiliary, stressing the work that
is being done and that needs to be
done for Rehabilitation and Child
Welfare. She spoke particularly of
the work at Legion, Texas and of
the pitiful condition of the children
whose fathers are in the hospital
there. It is to be regretted that, due
to such short notice, more of our
Auxiliary members, Legionaires,
and other Citizens of our town did
not have the pleasure of hearing
Mrs. Jones.
The main purpose of Mrs. Jop-
ling’s visit was to assist the Local
Unit in enrolling its 1936 mem-
bership, and she and some of the
local ladies called on a number of
eligibles Friday morning and were
successful in that they added six
ladies to the membership list.
A boat ride was planned for Fri-
day morning and, altho there were
only a few who could get away
from their work and the ladies had
only a lifnited time, those who could,
boarded the “Clipper” and took a
nice little ride giving the visitors
a fair sample of the many pleasures
to be enjoyed in our City. And,
since they both expressed a desire
to come again, we feel that they
enjoyed their stay with us and we
certainly are grateful to them for
making us this visit.
Those present for the supper
were: Mrs. H. C. Boyd, Local Unit
President, Mrs. Geo. L. Hunter,
Local Secretary, Mrs. Guy Clay-
bourn, Mrs. Mary A. Elliott, Mrs.
T. W. Fields, Mrs. Roy Wilkerson,
Mrs. Tandy, and Mrs. Robt. Mar-
gerum. The ladies were later joined
by three local Legionaires, Bill
Clement, Guy Claybourn and George
Hunter, who came in time to get
the benefit of Mis. Jones’ message.

to be impounded as compured to the
acreage to be irrigated, and, too,
the question of public health was
given consideration. The State

Issues Clean-Up
Proclamation
The week of March 29th to April
4th, inclusive, has been designated
as Spring Fire prevention Clean-Up
Week.
This is Centennial Year in Tex-
as and a Spring Clean-Up Cam-
paign should receive the enthusias-
tic support of every man, woman
and child. First, every citizen should
have a wholesome pride in his home
city, its streets, playgrounds, parks
and buildings. Homes and surround-
ings freshly painted, with well kept
lawns and gardens, increase proper-
ty values and intensify co|fmunity
interest. Cleanliness creates cheer,
courage and confidence. Secondly,
because every dollar in Rj'operty
destroyed by fire, which frequently
the result of “careless” house-
keeping in the home and in the
average place of business, is a ser-
ious drain upon our present eco-
nomic condition. Thirdly, and hu-
manly most important, because in
the past ten years entirely too many
of our citizens have lost their lives
due to carelessness in their daily
use of fire, and the preservation of
human life is an important matter.
Now, therefore, I, J. L. Deutsch,
Mayor of the city of Palacios, do
hereby designate the week of March
29th <to April 4th, inclusive, a$
Spring Fire Prevention Clean-Up
Week and most respectfully call
upon all departments of the city,
the Chamber of Commerce, Civic
Clubs, Patriotic Clubs and our peo-
ple in general, to take an active
