College Station, Sept. 6.—At
least 21,854 low income farm
families in 19 counties of
Southeast Texas are going to
sleep better this winter as a
result of the U. S. Department
of Agriculture’s plan for pro-
viding surplus cotton and tick-
ing for mattress making.
Of the 21,854 approved ap-
plications for mattress mate-
rials, 15,012 were Sled by
white families and 6,842 by
Negro families, according to
reports released by Beulah
Blackwell, district agent foq
the A. and M. College Exten-
sion Service, who supervises
home demonstration activities
in this area known as Exten-
sion District 9. The area i*
bounded by the Sabine River
on the East and by the Gulf on
the South, and extends as far
west'as Trinity county and as
far north as Panola county.
Under the program the Ex-
tension Service ia charged with
training rural leadership for
supervision of the community
mattress making centers, while
the surplus cotton and ticking
are provided by the Federal
Snrplus Commodities Corpora-
tion. Community supervisors
do not receive pay for their
services.
Regulations for the program
provide also that only farm
families with a gross income
of less than $400 in 1939 are
eligible to participate in the
program, and eligibility is de-
termined by county AAA com-
mittees.
There are 408 community
centers in the district where
mattresses are being made.
Since the program was inau-
gurated in the district this
spring, 2,669 mattresses have
been made and members of
3,598 families have worked in
the centers.
Proverbs of Speech
Who speaks, sows; who list- !
ens, reaps.—French.
Much speaking and lying
are cousins.—German.
As a man, so is his speech.—
Danish.
A man may say too much
even on the best subject.—
English.
He that speaks of things
that do not concern him, shall
hear of things that do not
please him.—Arabian.
It is good speaking that im-
proves good silence.—Dutch.
Speak little and to the point
and you will pass for some-
body.—Portuguese.
Speak well of thy friends;
be silent as to thy enemies.—
German.
Speaking without thinking
is like shooting without tak-
ing aim.—English.
Two ears to one tongue;
therefore hear twice as much
as you speak.—Turkish.
Who says little has little to
answer for.—German.
It is one thing to speak much
and another to speak per-
tinently.—English.
Leading hotels in a number
of cities are featuring “turkey
steaks.” The meat of the tur-
key is removed from the bones
with a special boning knife. It
is cut into steaks of light and
dark meat, as desired, in any
size from a half-pound up.
The steaks are fried slowly in
melted fat in a heavy covered
billet and then steamed.
If all the 1940 United States
wheat crop plus the supply in
•he Ever-Normal Granary were
used for food, it would provide
every man, woman and child
in the nation with twice as
much bread, cereal and other
wheat foods as each ate in the
entire year of 1939.

Masonry Called Anathema
to World’s Dictators
Dallas Morning News, Sept 6.
Religion, democracy and
Masonry today are being chal-
lenged by the dictators of the
world and if one of the three
goes down the others will fall,
Leo Hart, Gilmer, grand mas-
ter of the Grand Lodge of
Texas Masons, said in an ad-
dress at the Hi Noon Club
Thursday at the Hotel Adol-
phus. He was introduced by
Sam B. Cantey Jr., Fort Worth,
deputy grand master of Texas.
"Masons should be watch-
ful during this era which is
one of the most trying times in
the history of the order, he
said. "Masonic lodges were
banned in Italy, Germany and
in France. Dictators hate Ma-
sonry and will continue to ban
Masonic lodges as fast as na-
tions are conquered. Hitler
and his lieutenants hate Ma-
sonry as they hate religion and
democracy aud plan to destroy
all three in their program of
world conquest."

SRvcr Dollar
Payroll Where
Money Goes Tip
Middletown, Conn. (UP)—
As an experiment to deter-
mine how and where its work-
ers spend their money, a tex-
tile manufacturing company
paid its 1,300 employees in
silver dollars.
The scheme was adapted to
support a theory that 70 per
cent went to merchants, 15 peg
cent was banked and only
from 10 to 15 pm* cent left
the community.
The firm anticipated it
would take some time before
the survey would be complet-
ed, but reported some of the
money turned op In the “most
unexpected places.”
The “cartwheel” payroll
was used for only one week.
