LAST WEEK The Clifton Record
started its 70th year of activity,
tawing been In operation longer
any other business in Clifton.
The paper has strived to serve the
Interests of the citiiens of Clifton
and this area. Clifton has earned
reputation for its cleanliness, its
friendliness, its eivic-mindedness,
sand Its progrestiveness. The Record
tapes that it has helped from time
to time to bring these things about
halt realizes that it is the fine peo-
ple of a community, not one or
two businesses, who determine
whether a town will be rated as
“a fine place in which to live."
FIRST WOMAN seriously to en
ter the race for Presidency of the
United States is Senator Margaret
Smith, a long-time, successful pol-
itican from Maine. Senator Smith
probably has no illusions about
being nominated as the Republican
presidential candidate; but should
she make a relatively good showing
in some of the primaries, Republi-
cans might think they could streng-
then^their ticket by naming Mrs.
Smith as their Vice-Presidential
candidate in November's election.
BOSQUE COUNTY went over the
goal set for it in 1963 in the pur-
chase of U. S. Savings Ronds. The
county’s goal had been placed at
$150,000.00, with $155,734.00 worth
of bonds bring purchased. Total
sales in Texas came to 96.5% of the
state’s goal, or $145334,910.00.

So, each part of your body makes its own “print" to the extent *
of the weight of that part of your body. You get a perfect mold of
the curves of your entire body.
If two people are sleeping on the same Beautyrest, each makes
its own impression. Even a heavy husband will not make a “trough”
into which his wife will spill.
No mattress with connecting spring coils can possibly give you
- the comfort of a Beautyrest.
