No
Nobody will den\ that ItHe
cost is conservatiwly $1,0(KI
each. In other words we have
500 million dollars invested in
trucks and automobiles in Tex,
Counting the average life of
each at three1 years, it is evid-
ent that we art* wearing out
one-third of our investment
every year—that is. we are
spending one-third of tthe 500
millions, which is 106 millions:'
every year as an investment
in automobiles. Now then, we
come to tin* expense of the
gasoline ami other supplies for!
a year’s ojKuation of these 500,
thousand trucks and automo-i
t»»lt*s. Putting it down to the!
cost of the cheapest a Ford— j
it will In* at least $300 a year.
Now multiply this by the 500
thousand and you get tin* sum
of 150 million dollars more.
Add this to the 160 millions
that we are wearing out every
year an I we have the stupend-
ous sum of 316 million dollars
that Texas is gqxmding in tfie
automobile game and sending I
it out of the state, never more
to return, but each year to be
repeated, if our people do not
get the wheels out Iheir
heads.” *
There are very few fools in
this world. They generally
have enough sense left to con-
side others more afflicted than
themselves.

A NEW WAR GAS.
A new warfare gas, in
liquid form, three drops of
which will kill within thirty
seconds tihe person whose skin
it touches, was described by
Captain L. D. Hutson, U. S.
A., speaking l>efore students
of the Pennsylvania Military
College at Chester.
“Imagine what will happen
to a city, he said, “when air
squadrons btgin spraying it
with that terrible substance.
In the next war machine guns
and artillery will be I out of
date—the weapons will l>e
bases and ('.hemicals, and the
humblest, non-combatant will *
be exposed to attack. Entire
populations , will takh the
chance of never awakening
when thev go to bed at night.
It will truly be a war of ex-
termination.
“Another new invention is
the toxic smoke candle, which
when burned sets loose clouds
of dust particles, temporarily
incapacitating those hhat
breathe the dust. The infan-
try will be equipped with these
candles, and they will be used
in the advance to smother the
personnel of machine gun nests
and tihe enemy huddled in
trenches and dugouts.”
They say a woman can’t drive,
a nail, but most of them can
drive their husbands to Jo it
for them.

Opportunities are never vviih-
out value, alt hough many people
are unable to fix the price.
After all, there is a bond of
sympathy between doctors and
editors. The one doesn’t care
to take his own medicine, while
the other seldom follows his
own advice.
If you find it possible to gel
rid of potato bugs in any other
way you might squirt a little
modern booze over the tops.
Even a p. b. couldn’t servive
that stuff.
The road to ruin is a well
trodden trail. You can’t miss
it if you want to find it.
