neighbors’ hack yards, and nothing
more exciting lias happened than an
occasional Hquabble between the
neighbor and his wife or their cut
and his paramour. We had intended
as stated above, attending some of
tiie services at the Presbyterian
church, giving our impression of such
service as compared to that of 25
years ago when religion was a reality
and people went to these services for
something more than an opportunity
to criticise their neighbors for the
way they dressed and the way they
raised their children.
• * *
M. P. must confess that it lias been
ages since he attended any "revival”
services except in the capacity of re-
porter. Times may have thanged
once again and old-time religion may
be riding in the saddle as of yore. We
do not know. We believe that until
such time that this is true until such
time that people go to church for oth-
er Reasons than to dress a little better
wear a little "sweller” hats or shoes,
and cease to criticize each other, that
that church and religion must lose
ground. M. P. well remembers at
one stage of his life he attempted to
introduce into one of the fashionable
churches of New Orleans a Sunday
School class of street gamins boys
gathered from the alleys of the un-
derworld—many of them with no
claim to legitimate parents; all of
them poorly dressed, uneducated, un-
couth, but withal, human. A sugges-
tion to the pastor of the aforesaid
fashionable uptown church was met
with instant refusal.
M. P. insisted that Christ came to
earth to save just sucn as these. And
' demanded that room he made for their
instruction in this magnificent tem-
ple dedicated to the same Christ who
I gave His all, even his very life, that
the world might be saved.
* * *
M. P. had been raised in a preach-
er’s family; had been taught to be-
lieve that Christianity was a wide-
i as the world itself; that no one could
| be burred from sharing the protecting
I love of tiie Saviour of Mankind. He
j was, of course, shocked at the attitude
| assumed by the pastor and the offi-
cers of tliis church. Being a news-
I paper man of some little repute, lie
threatened exposure in the columns
of the daily press. The gamins of
j the street were admitted. Admitted
j to the sanctity of this fashionable
! house of Mamon—not God. We re-
I call this instance merely in passing,
j and wonder if the churches of today
i select from the elect those whom they
i would have worship at their altars.
! And for this reason we were anxious
to attend these services.

Most everybody, especially those
interested in College athletics, know
old Boh Whitten, the twins, Prince,
real men; know that they would fight
a circular saw, or their weight in
wildcats; know that there is not a
yellow streak in their whole makeup.
Yet it is said that at the Schreiner
game last Friday these great big
huskies came off the field after the
final score of 13 to 0 had been an-
nounced, with tears in their eyes
and sobs in their throats that could
not he explained. Nor can the stud-
ent of human nature explain. These

AN ORDINANCE
Regulating the parking of vehicles of
all kinds on paved streets within
the corporate limits of the City of
Kingsvlle, Texas, and making it un-
lawful to park same during certain
hours, and unlawful to have or per-
mit any other obstructions to be
placed or remain, and declaring an
j emergency.
lh> it Ordained by the City
ville City Commission.
| Section 1. That from and
; passage of this Ordinance, it
unlawful for any owner, agent, em-
! ployee, or other person, having charge
I of, or control of, any motor vehicle
j or other kind of vehicle or conveyance
I to leave same parked or standing on
i any of the paved streets or avenues
within the corporate limits of said
City of Kingsville, Texas, at any time
| from and after 1 o’clock a. m. until
j 5 o’clock a. m.
I Section 2. It shall also he unlawful
i for any owner, lessee, tenant, their
! agents or employees, or any firm or
| corporation, its agents, lessees or em-
! ployees, to have, leave or permit to tie
i left in, adjacent to, or adjoining their
curb to their property line, or any
paved street or avenue within the
i corporate limits of the City of Kings-
| ville, Texas, obstructions of any kind
I which would in any way prevent or
interfere with the proper operation of
I the street sweeper operated under the
direction of said city, at any time said
j sweeper is operated.
Penalty- Any person, firm, or cor-
poration, their agents, employees,
lessees or any one acting- in their
stead, who violates any of the above
sections numbered one and two, shall
he deemed guilty of a misdemeanor,
and upon conviction in the Corpora-
tion Court of said City of Kingsville,
shall be fined in any sum of money
j not less than one dollar nor more
! than ten dollars, and costs shall be
governed as provided in tiie Minor
Traffic Ordinance, passed by said
City Commission on October 20th,
1!(25, and further.
The fact that it is of vital interest
to the health of the people of said
City and to cleanliness of the streets
to have said paved streets and aven-
ues properly swept and kept clean at
ail times; and the further fact that
by leaving parked vehicles on said
streets during the time above set out
or leaving obstructions on sard streets
and avenues in the way of the street
sweeper, prevents the proper sweep-
ing of same in a thorough manner,
creates an emergency, and a public
necessity which requires that the
Charter Rule requiring the reading on
three separate occasions of an ordi-
nance, and its publication for ten
days before same is finally enacted,
be suspended, and said rule is now
hereby suspended, and this ordinance
shall be in full force immediately
from and after its passage.
Passed on Sept. 1st, 11)27.
Approved on Sept. 1st, 1027.

And all this to their credit. For
if you have a college built upon the
faith of its students in that institu-
tion, ils success is assured. When its
student body have so high a respect
for their Alma Mater that a seeming
failure on their part causes them to
shed tears, then you may know that
tin* institution 1ms found a place in
the hearts of the student body, and
wherever they may go, and whatever
they may do, you may be sure it will
be for the best of that institution.
Boys, Melting Pot takes his hat off
to you with the most profound re-
spect. You fought a good fight against
overwhelming odds, and lost. There
is no disgrace. Kingsville is proud
of you.

And, n.y dear, write------and here
Melting Pot’s steam seemed to sim-
mer down and the pot ceased to bub-
ble. Melting Pot was succumbing
to Dr. Joe’s medicines that were un-
opened. Just what he meant to be
written right here you will never
know, for his gentle breathing is add-
ing its musical hit to the soft sum-
mer breeze that conies through the
window here by Melting Pot’s "couch
of pain.” Maybe it was a continua-
tion of this "gentleman cow,” and
maybe it was an order to write a
check for Mr. Sellers’ or Mr. Ed-
wards, so the family will continue to
eut through November I’ll never
know; but the lino man is fuming for
copy, so th's will have to be rushed
to the office while M. I*, slumbers.
