Twine-Tying Baler
Speeds Hay Harvest
Made ''Haylift" Work
Possible in West
Over the vast areas of the plains
6tates where 1948’s unprecedented
snows caused extensive suffering of
both livstock and human beings,
machines like the one shown above
are beginning to be more appre-
ciated.
Not in the actual haylift opera-
tions, -wherein grain for starving
cattle and food for humans were
dropped from airplanes, but in the
preliminary phase of harvesting,
without which tlie haylift would
have been impossible.
The machine shown here turned
out up to 7 bales a minute during
the haying season of last year, add-
ing this tremendous output to the
stockpiles of grain from which the
haylift drew its supplies.
Thus the machine helped to pro-
vide the thousands of “bombs” of
baled hay with which fliers saved
the lives of starving cattle in a
great rescue operation.
Just a few years ago operation
haylift would have been impossible.
It was not until this machine was in-
troduced in the early 1940’s.- that
farmers could put their hay into
twine-tied packages automatically.

incree, covering up under the lame ex-
cuse that 'The chamber of commerce
is run by a clique , . • .”
"Wlmt is tlie 'Clique?' . . . ’tis a
body of men
Who attend every meeting., Not just
now and then.
Who don't miss a meeting unless
they are sick;
Those are tlie men that tlie grouch
calls "The Clique.”
Why don't you make a farce of the
magic word "WORK”
Who believe in tlie motto: Not a
job will I shirk;”
Who never resort to. an underhand
I rick;
Those are the men that the grouch
calls "TIIF, CLIQUE.”
Men who are seldom behind with
their dues, '
And who from' the meeting do not
carry NEWS;
Who attend to their duties and don't
seek a kick;
Those are tlie men that the crank
calls "THE CLIQUE.”
We all should lie proud of members
like these—
t hey cun call them "THE CLIQUE”
or whatever they please,
Put (here are some people wlio al-
ways lind fault
And most of tiiis kind are not worth
I their salt;
They will always start trouble, but
seldom will stick
And leave all the., work to be done
hy "THE CLIQUE.”
"Progress conies from unified ef-
fort. It is just common sense for
all of us to work for tlie community
as a whole. As an example, through
improvement of the town, making It
a better place in which to live and
work, Hu' Chamber of Commerce at-
tracts new residents or new business
concerns to locate , here. The peo-
ple, when' they come in often buy
property, either- residential or busi-
ness or loot li. The land owner and
real estate man make a sale and a
profit: they begin paying taxes. If
they open a business they hire people
to work f'h them, thereby creating
more pay rolls, which find their way
into the grocery store, the drug store,
Die meat market, he dry goods stores
and jewelry stores, the tilling stations,
the pod /ire shows, and every other
line of business in town; through
their increased business,- the. grocer,
tlie butcher, tlie druggist and the dry
goods umn are able to expand and
put on more help, who in turn spend
| then* money which finds its way hack
through the same channels. It creates
a cycle—hut not a vicious one—and
all possible each group recognizes the
rights and veiews of all other groups.’
1„ closing his talk, Air. Vickers said}
-the four worst pests are dust, cock-
.. _____i..... .mil L-nnckors ” nild
(in. a whisper) -lie concluded “I’d
rather be a buzzard than a knocker.”

nd cultivated, and that is the school.
The school was ditiicult to establish
nda keep in the early history of this
country. ’ And the school was the
natural outgrowth of the Christian
home, and the Protestant Church. And
the foundation of tlie public school
rests today on the Christian Home and
the Protestant Church. And Airs. C.
O. Fentl’er was a pioneer in the es-
tablishing and promoting of tlie
school. She finished high school in
her community, and went to Sam
Houston State Normal College at
Huntsville, and finished from that
school in 1S9J. It was a rare tiling
for a woman to have a college edu-
cation in ls'Jl—almost (it) years ago.
So she was a real pioneer in school.
Then she taught school two or three
years. Later she was a real pioneer
in planting and cultivating all three
of the great institutions of our civili-
zation. The Christian Home, the
Christian Church and the School.
A Pioneer Christian mother. There
is an old Hebrew parable to the ef-
fect "That God could not lie every-
where, so he gave us mother.”
