GALLOPIN’ SOME!
Two sturdy young men, James Mc-
Coy and H. V. March man, endeavor-
ing to cover the distance between Me-
ridian and Walnut Springs to Glen
Rose on foot in a certain length of
time, did cover it on Sunday, July 28,
so the title of this writ has been de-
rived from terrific walking.
At exactly 4:36 o’clock, the “hoof-
ing it” began, and passers-by cast
many bewildering glances at the un-
canny steps the boys were taking.
Time passed hurriedly and so did the
two boys. Upon reaching the three-
mile-limit of the destination and goal,
the high stepping developed into a
pepy trot, which lasted for a distance
of approximately one mile. The re-
maining mile or two was reeled off
in the intense heat of the morning,
bringing forth perspiration that made
both boys appear to be “thoroughly
wets.” After the temperature of their
respective bodies had dropped to near
normal, the boys were welcomed and
refreshed by Rowden’s Drug Store at
Glen Rose.
And as they were partaking of,
their refreshments, their faces turned
toward the clock, which gave the in-
dication—11:36 Central Standard
Time. Averaging 6 1-4 miles per hour
for twenty-five miles, it took only four
hours flat of the boys’ time. Not
bad, eh?—Meridian Tribune.
MAKES PLEA FOR WOMANHOOD
Waco, Texas, Aug. 29.—Denounc-
ing the evils of companionate marri-
age, cigarette smoking by women, and
divorce, in which she said America is
leading, Mrs. A. T. Douglas, of Abi-
lene, representative , of the “Better
Womenhood” movement, Wednesday
pleaded with membeYs of the Lions
club at the Hotel Raleigh that they
“go out and stop this curse, which is
degrading womenhood, and the home,
and the nation.”
In the last two years the movement
has become international, Los Angeles
Calif., being the national’ headquarters
and Paris, France, international head-
quarters, she said. Mrs. P. W. Chunn,
Waco representative, introduced the
speaker.
2. Use just enough
Purina to supply what
your own feed lacks.
3. Figure up how
much net profit per
cow you made the past
year with your old
system of feeding.
4. Use the Pi-rina system for a year. Keep tab
on the extra profit. Then if Purina doesn’t make
you more money, don’t feed it

Indianapolis, Ind., Sept. 7.—The
Rev. William A. Sunday will sign •
contract to enter motion pictures at
a price, imagined here, to be $l,000r

mer Rodeheaver, his choir leader at
Winona Lake. Sunday recently was
quoted that “they offered me a *1,000,-
000 to go into the movies, but I
turned it down. I can do more speak-
g to the people face to face." Nev-
ertheless, Rodeheaver said, Sunday
definitely decided to accept a contract
offered by Warner Bros, because in
that way he can carry his message to
people throughout the world.
