'THIS COLUMN is not the circula-
tion department. It hardly knows
what the price of a year's subscrip-
tion to the paper is, but we can talk
about circulation and fellows who
borrow and read their neighbors’
copies of the Democrat-Voice. Now
really, don’t you feel mean because
the one you have in your hands has
been secured by tormenting some
friendly person who perhaps would* gpNErai, MEETING TO BE HELD
be reading it now if it were not for
you. Take it back home right now
and tell the distressed neighbor that
you are going to take the paper and
pay for it hereafter. Come to this
office Saturday and Join our ever-
increasing family of satisfied read-
ers. If you do not, by reading the
advertisements, save more in a year’s
time than the paper costs we will
gladly refund the price of admis-
sion.
TTIBe NEGRO SAID he preached at
* one time and was not too good
to do it again if necessary. That’s
the negro’s business. It would be
alright to worry your neighbor now.
and again if it should become neces-
sary, but the price is so terribly
small that it is not now and never
will be necessary for you to be a con-
stant borrower. The paper is worth
the price Just for kindling wood. We
do not sell subscriptions for profit,
but to get advertising. With pros-
pects as good as they are, men go-
ing back to work everywhere, we
ought to be able to increase readers
of this column from 12,000 to 25,000
by the time Franklin Roosevelt is
elected to succeed Hoover. Asso-
ciated Press news alone tljat comes
by wire on press day-is worth all the
paper costs.
School Trustees
Asked to Aid Red

IN COLEMAN MONDAY,
JANUARY 19.
erHIS COLUMN and Associated
Press news are not the only in-
teresting features in the paper. On
some of the pages you will read
about pop calls in rural communi-
ties, news items from all parts of
the county, Arthur Brisbane and fea-
tures furnished by NEA, illustrated
with pictures. Nobody ought to try
to keep house or their temper with-
out the county weekly newspaper.
It is as necessary, according to our
idea, as bread and water. Reading it
sreekly will stop divorces, increase
Jiurch attendance, provoke peace-
ful slumber, remove that ache In
the back and stop falling hair. All
the ills in the county are caused by
failure of the people to read the pa-
per and the many testimonials thal
are published concerning it.
do-
DUT THE SUBSCRIPTION
partment is not all that needs
our aid. The advertising man thinks
we ought to say more about his
pages as mediums through which the
people can be spoken to in the .most
emphatic manner. He likes men that
don’t advertise and those that do.
He likes those that do the best, and
has asked us to urge people to go
to advertising stores for the best and
freshest merchandise. The dust, he
say, that accumulates on merchan-
dise in non-advertising stores ought
never to be taken into homes. It
may be laden with germs, he says,
because it floats into the store from
streets sprinkled with tobacco Juice,
and some of the tobacco chewed is
purchased at stores that are not
moving it fast enough by advertising
to keep it pure and fresh.
& When a meeting of the local chap-
ter of the American Red Cross ad-
journed in this city Monday, Chair-
man C. W. Martin of the Coleman
county chapter mailed letters and
blanks to be filled out to alt school
trustees in the county.
In the letter he said: “In order to
make a complete survey of the ac-
tual necessary assistance to drouth
sufferers in your community we ask
you to be kind enough to call your
board together at once and imme-
diately make a list of those who will
need food and clothing to prevent
suffering this winter, using the in-
closed blanks, and report at a gen-
eral meeting to be held in Coleman
Monday, January 19, at 10 o’clock
at the chamber of commerce offices.
“In making this call,’’ the letter
says, "it Is the desire of the Red
Cross to give aid necessary to pre-
vent actual suffering, but we wish
you to bear in mind that there are
twenty-one states, in which there are
1,849 counties, in the drouth area
and funds are limited. It is very
necessary for you to use your good
Judgement in making requests; to
limit them to those in actual need.
Other blanks will be furnished as
needed, but, for the January 19th
meeting, would ask you to make as
complete an estimate as possible of
the names and needs of those in
your community. A meeting at your
school house might be a desirable
way to more easily canvass your dis-
trict.’’
“This request.” says the letter, “is
being made at the suggestion of the
National Red Cross, and I trust that
you will assume the burden, thus en-
abling your county organization to
make an intelligent report of local
needs. I am not in position to make
any definite promise, but the Red
Cross has proven Itself not only will-
ing, but most competent to give
quick relief.”
The letter is signed by C. W. Mar
tin, chairman of the Coleman coun-
ty chapter of the American Red
Cross, and he expects nearly all
school trustees in the county to be
present at the meeting in this city
January 29.

Newest of Ocean Flyers
James E. West, regional executive
of the Boy Scouts of America, Tues-
day notified Ed Shumway of Abi-
lene, Chisholm Trail executive, that
Scout Edmund McCurtain of this
city has been awarded the Harmon
Foundation Scholarship for 1930.
Mr. Shumway this morning notified
Secretary Sim O’Neal of the Cole-
man Chamber of Commerce of the
action and asked Mr. O’Neal to in-
form Scout McCurtain and his par-
ents.
For several years McCurtain has
been an enthusiastic scout worker
and the honor comes as a fitting cli
max to the many hours spent In
studying scoutcraft so that he could
be of service to others.
Mr. Shumway asks that his per-
sonal congratulation be extended to
Scout McCurtain and his parents.

Switzer, tenant living on his place
at Presbyterianville. near Gould-
busk, cultivated 90 acres of land
during the year. He worked hard
and late. From the 90 acres
planted to cotton and feed he
harvested three bales of cotton
and for them he received very
little salary for this year's irksome
toil
Mrs. Switzer was raising tur-
keys at the time on halves for
Mrs. Gray. She started the year
with seven hens. When the crop
was sold, at prices lower than
they had been for several vears.
her share of the proceeds
amounted to $S3, more than Mr.
Switzer had realized from crops
produced on the 90 acres culti-
vated through the year.
Mr. Gray believes that if a far-
mer has a field and seven turkey
hens, and must make disposition
of one or the other, wisdom dic-
tates selling the farm.

CPEAKING ABOUT tobacco re-
J minds us what a merchant said
last week. "I buy more tobacco than
I do coffee and sugar,” he said, and
went on to explain that there are
people who will purchase 75 cents
worth of tobacco and $1.50 worth of
necessities for the household. That’s
the reason why whiskey was voted
out. Children and wives went with-
out food and sweethearts without
Christmas, presents. Now if the old
tobacco chewers and smokers don’t
beware they will have some reform
organization trying to vote it out of
existence—just like whiskey has been
voted out of existence.

If gasoline thieves expected to
make a tour on gasoline they expect-
ed to secure from M. M. Luckett’s
automobile at 3 o’clock yesterday
morning the trip has been post-
poned.
For some time Mr. Luckett has
suspected that somebody was helping
his engine consume gasoline so he
equipped his. garage with a burglar
alarm.
Yesterday morning it went off be-
tween three and four o’clock. Mrs.
Luckett got out of bed and turned
on a light in the home. This Was
a signal for the thieves to make a
hasty exit from the premises. But
they were not quick enough. M,r
Luckett managed to get his automa-
tic shot gun arid fire three times at
the fleeing pair. They re, urned two
shots. When the two reac.rid Park

north by the Fieratt apartment
building and the other south by the

cases.

These not only play a great part in
bringing the store up to chain store

’' EVfetT effort Is being made in Cole-
man and Coleman county to lighten
the tax burdens of the people. At
a meeting of the city commission
Monday night a resolution was pass-
ed that will permit payment of city
taxes semi-annually.
By the plan adopted half of the
amount can be paid on or before
January 31 and the other half on or
before July 1. If the half payment is
made on or before January 31 there
will be no penalty attached to the
half to be paid on or before July 1.
The half that is delinquent, however,
enough to own more than one.
Heretofore it was impossible to pay
on any part or parcel of land with-
out paying the entire amount. This
will be some relief in county taxes,
and it is believed that most of tlis
people will be able to make pay-
ments.

will draw the customary 6 per cent
Interest, but no penalty. Unless
half of the amount is paid on Jan.
31. Interest and penalty will be
charged on the entire amount.
Those who can do so are urged
to pay all of their taxes by January
31, as the city is urgently in need
of funds, and by so doing it will
make It easier to help those who
cannot pay.
The action of the commission is
similar to that taken by Coleman
independent school district trustees
several weeks ago when they agreed
to accept half of independent school
district taxes on or before January
31 and the other half November 1,
with 6 per cent Interest on the de-
ferred payment, but no penalty.
The county tax. now, is all that
remains to be paid in its entirety on
or before January 31 to avoid penalty
and Interest. There is a mandatory
statute that leaves the county com-
missioners helpless to remedy the
situation unless some provision is
made by the legislature now in ses-
sion. It will be permissabie. how-

survive attacks being made upon it
by those who object to its function-

Secretary Sim O'Neal of the

stressing the fact that the associa-
tion is operating in connection with
the Federal Farm Board for the
benefit of cotton farmers and is not
gambling in cotton or other commo-
dities.
It was learnad through Mr. Cars-
well that there are about 400 memb-
ers of - the association in Coleman
county and that as much as 6 per
cent of the value has been loaned
on cotton. The American Cotton
Co-Operative Association, Mr. Cars-
well said, held about 1.300,000 bales
of cotton off the market last year
and this year has held approximately
2,000,000 off the market. The speak-

Mr. Hufford, advocating the col-
lection of clothing, expressed the
opinion that there are many families
in Coleman and other parts of the
county who have not enough clothe*
to keep them warm. Many more for-
tunate families, he believes, have
