Coleman, Texas, October 2, 1984
Cooperative Month
To Be Observed
people of Texas just how important
cooperatives are to our well-being.”
AUSTIN: October is Cooperative
Month in Texas and across the
nation as proclaimed by most of the
country’s governors. Governor
Mark White, in his official pro-
clamation, urged the people of
Texas to “give special recognition to
the constructive and responsible
roles of agricultural cooperatives in
the economic progress of our State.”
'Texas has more than 400 agricul-
tural cooperatives operating and
serving over 133,000 members",
according to Billy Conner, Execu-
tive Vice-President of the Texas
Agricultural Cooperative Council.
“These cooperatives are doing busi-
ness volumes of almost four billion
dollars annually", he said.
Cooperatives in Texas range from
farmer-owned gins, elevators and
compresses to marketing, supply
and credit organizations. Health,
housing, insurance, electric, tele-
phone and other service coopera-
tives are becoming more and more
important to all Texas citizens.
“Cooperative Month”, said Con-

THOUGHT
FOR TODAY
By Mike Korzeneivski 2
"People generally quarrel 1
because they cannbt argue... ” |
—Gilbert K. Chesterson I
Too often we dignify a |
quarrel by calling it an argu-
ment. In order to argue, we
should have some knowledge
of the subject being discussed.
We should be able to put our
thoughts into words, in a way
that will convey our meaning
convincingly to whomever we
have chosen.
The less information a per-
son has, the more he is
inclined to quarrel, rather
than argue. Quarrels involved
raised voices, name calling,
irrelevent “facts" and very
little logic. Quarrels change
very few opinions.
Decisions made under the
pressure of emotional stress
are never easy. Pre-planned
arrangements can be made
well in advance of need. We
can provide all the informa-
tion you might desire, and
with absolutely no obligation.
