We heard this week that Cecil
Overby lost his false teeth out
at his farm one day last week.
We don't know whether he lost
Ms teeth out of his pocket or
if he sneezed real big Anyway
when Crawford Daniel who is
emnloved at the Tribune office
heard of Cecil's misfortune he
said "I wonder what size gums
he has; I have two perfectly
good pair and they have hardly
teen worn any."

the First National Bank in
Schwertner Tuesday if they

We heard this week that Bar-
hara Ferguson is known as a
model patient in a Temple hos
pital. The doctor's and nurses
said she had a smile for every-
one. We were told that she could
do no complaining as she is
lying there on her back with
her right leg and right arm
Broken and both jaws wired to-
gether. She can't complain as
Bhe can't utter a sound and she
can't slap or kick. When we vis
5ted her this week we readily
realized what they meant. She
smiled constantly and her eyes
sparkled like diamonds as she
lay there receiving a blood
transfusion. If you are in Tem-
ple drive by to see her; she
would appreciate your visit and
will carry on a conversation
with pencil and paper. She is a
lonely young lady.

impossible for him to do the
work for them. The two ladies
who grew up in Schwertner told
him who they were and he got
up and sharpened the blades for
them. We hear that they spent
two hours out there looking his
place over and getting a history
of his establishment. Mr. Zind-
ler must not have been too sick.
Hats off to W. F. (Fred)
Blair! We wish to congratulate
the committee of the Chamber
of Commerce who selected Mr.
Blair as Citizen of the Year. He
has served Bartlett in many
ways during his many years
here. Since his semi-retirement
several years ago he has re-
mained active in all phases of
civic improvement. Our thanks
to Mr. Blair.

A few years ago a representative
0roup of Americans gathered at a
university round table to discuss our
economy and named it "people's
capitalism."
Reaction from the Communists was
instant. They were appalled. They
scorned the idea. They callod it "im-
poHible aB fried ice." They mobilized
their professors who wrote papers
proving to their complete satisfac-
tion there could be no such thing as
"people's capitalism."
The fact is that much of the
capital that runs America comes
from the millions of people who
make up America. It flows into our
economy through their savings ac
counts pension funds stock ana
bond purchases life insurance pre-
miums. And through the $45 billion worth
of U. S. Savings Bonds held by tens
of millions of Americans.
This stake the American people
have in their country is evidonce at
our abiding faith in our way of life
and our determination to keep our
freedoms intact. And to help man-
kind all over the world in its fight
against slavery and oppression.
Are you in the fight? Show that
you are by buying Savings Bonds at
your bank or through Payroll Sav-
ings where you work. And see if you
don't feel pretty good about it.

Bonds help build
