"Thanksgiving Day, which

His Divine goodness, gives us
an opportunity to also give
thanks for the blessings of
freedom and prosperity that
we enjoy as a result of a herit-
age left us, not alone by the
pioneers of the United States,
but by the pioneers, of our own
great Lone Star State.
‘The blessings of peace,
prosperity and national secur-

blessings deserving of our
deepest gratitude and praise
to Divine Providence.
"Now, therefore, I, James
V. Allred, governor -of the
state of Texas, do hereby set
aside and proclaim Thursday,
Nov. 24, 1938 to be Thanks-
giving Day, a legal holiday in
Texas, and I invite the citizens
of Texas to observe the day in
such manner as will show our
appreciation for the bountiful
blessings which are ours. I es-
pecially urge that the United
States and Texas flags be dis-
played in public places and on
public buildings to signify our
gratefulness for the privilege
of living in this land of free-
dom and opportunity.
(Signed)
James V. Allred.”

POLL TIS HOST BE
PAID ALOUD WITH
DEDDLAD LEVIES
Payment of the poll tax at
the same time personal or real
estate taxes are paid each year
is now compulsory under a re-
cent ruling of Attomel-Gener-
al William McCraw, EM Hoya,
assistant tax assessor-collec-
tor, reported. A copy of the
ruling was recently mailed to
every tax collector in the state.
Tn the past, payment of poll
taxes has not been required of
taxpayers and has been an op-
tional levy in Nacogdoches
county. Under the new rul-
ing, however, the poll tax
must be paid or else taxes on
personal property and real es-
tate cannot be paid. This rul-
ing was made by the attorney
general and not by any local
authorities, it is further ex-
plained.
Persons using the split pay-
ment system in paying tax ac-
counts will be required to pay
the poll tax levy at the time of
paying the first half accounts,
which are due not later than
November 30.—Redland Her-
ald, Nacogdoches.

The term liquid" in banking, is used to denote
assets in the form of cash or readily convertible Into
cash.
A bank does not keep all of its depositors’ money
in currency and coins, for such money would stand
idle. Some is used to buy Government or other
bonds, and commercial paper, and some to make
short-term loans. These are liquid, because they
may be quickly converted into cash.
One of the banker's problems is to keep his bank
liquid enough to satisfy all probable demands of
depositors for funds, and yet participate, by sound
loans, in the constructive development of the com-
munity.
