Cow, to the many who will
•come bringing animats for ex-
hibitlon purposes, and to those
who will come just to see
what a Dairy Show really is,to
those Carrollton is going to
have a real WELCOME that
will be genuine and that should
make everyone feel right at
home.
Carrollton is well aware of
the immense importance of the
Dairy Cow to Life and to
Civilization. Carrollton is
well aware of the importance
of the Dairy Industry to Dal-
las county. She is the center
of a great portion of that in-
dustry in this county and she
is reaping from day to day a
nice business because of the
industry and its magnitude in
this part of Dallas county.
We owe to the Cow a large
part of our business life and
we are willing to do her and
her sponsors honor on that
date in May when we shall ac-
cord to her the stage that she
may Strut Her Stuff.
There will be many things
to be done in preparation for
the reception which should be
accorded this Queen of the
Farm and the Home, and we
do not want to let anything
go undone that will add to
her comfort and the comfort
of those who are sponsoring
her and who will accompany
her to Carrollton for her great
celebration.
We hope to see activity that
will result in the greatest show
that has ever been accorded
the Cow in Dallas county. We
hope to see committees work-
ing on all of the many angles
of the show and we hope to
see results that will redound
to the credit of the committees
who do the work, and to the
gentlemen who give of their
time and abilities to make the
show what it will be scienti
fically.
A. B, Jolley, county agent,
expects that at leas,. 75 or 100
head of dairy cattle will be
exhibited. We would not be
surprised to sec that number
exceeded.
Judges and speakers at the
show will include Jack Shelton,
president American Jersey
Cattle Club, who is State
agent and vice-director of ex-
tension service, Texas A. & M,
College; Prof. E. M. Sheppard-
son, head of the dairy depart
ment; E. R. Eudaly, extension
dairy husbandman, and G. G.
Gibson, assistant extension
dairy husbandman, all from
Texas A. & M. College.
The dairy show committee
is composed of Arthur F. Dei-
trich, R. L. Pou, E. W. Strain,
Tom White, C. J. O’Connor and
L. R, Guthrie.
Thursday, February 24th at
the High School Auditorium.
The program will be on Wash-
ington and the Constitution
and will be done in costume.
Mrs. C A. Good, who is mak-
ing the arrangements, will
appreciate the presence of
each P. T. A. member and she
says that you may bring your
friends. Below is the pro-
gram :

the Tax Division of the office
of State Comptroller, George
H. Sheppard made the inspec-
tion of the stations of this
territory, just completing the
same a few days ago. His re-
port is certainly an agreeable
one to the station operators.

Irving had a strong delega-

the show. Lancaster also was
represented as was Duncan-

to cooperate with Lancaster
if the show were awarded that
little city. Irving holds dairy
shows each year and they
made it very plain to the com

like to have this county1 wide

The Union Baptist church
has progressed very much in
their choir practices. It has
grown from about twenty-five
people to between eighty and
one hundred. Each Thursday
nite choir practice is held in
the church. Singers from Dal-

singing. Last Thursday nite
a group of musicians from Dal-

musical numbers. You are
cordially invited to attend
these choir practices.
A farm tool of more than
usual interest is being tried
out at the farm of E W Drink-
ard near Farmers Branch.
The machine is said to be
capable of eradicating John-
son and Bermuda grass. A
patent has been granted on
the machine. W A Martin of
Dallas is the inventor. More
experiments will be made with
the implement and if it is as
successiul as indicated by re-
cent trials it will most likely
get into a waiting market.

$18,000 weekly, the mill is
scheduled to resume opera-
tions about March 1, and the
town is in a jubilant mood for
the first time since the closing
nearly six months ago. The
actual loss to the community
and wage earners since the
shut down is estimated at
more than $300,000,
The drive to raise the neces
sary funds to reopen the mill
was begun January 14, when
a veteran employee of the mill,
Charles E. Maynard, subscrib
ed $1,000 toward the goal and
organized a team of catjvass
ers to help raise the rest ol’
the money. A total of 230
workers in the mill also pur-
chased shares of the “bond
issue.”
The mSl was forced to a
stand still last August 16
when the C. I. O. ordered a
strike.
In addition to leading the
financial drive to reopen their
place of employment, the
workers have also tormed a
new employees’ union—pledged
not to affiliate with either the
C. I. O. or the A. F. of L. One
significant clause in the un-
ion's constitution, which the
workers describe as a “policy
for sane and stable labor rela-
tions with the management,”
provides that all officers arid
members of the executive
committee of the new union
shall be property owners in
the community.
A member of the executive
committee, in announcing the
formation of the union, de
dared:
“We’re not going to be led

Later they removed and have

florist business. He is sur-

Dallas.
Mr. Philpott was well known
in this county and has many
friends who will regret exceed-
ingly his passing away. In
his ball playing days he made
an enviable record for himself
and was in great demand.
