LEGIONNAIRES WILL
PLEASE TAKE NOTICE
Do you, the member sof the Ameri-
can Legion, realize that the time for
paying your 1925 dues is at hand?
Headquarters have dropped delin-
quent members this year. Do you
waul to be one of the members to be
dropped? We think not. Your 1925
: dues may be paid to Mr. Hodges at
! the Kleberg Bank or to any oflicer of
1 the Legion.
The Ernest L. Anderson Post for
the year 1924 had one hundred mem-
bers. This year we should do much
better. We should have in another
j thirty days one hundred and fifty or
i two hundred members. So Buddies its
! up to you. Pay your dues and then
! sign up a man who is not a member.
, You did not fall when your country
j called so why fuil when your Buddies
'need you?
Remember the meeting nights, the
second and fourth Wednesday of each
month. Come out and bring a uon*
member with you.
Ernest L. Anderson Post No. 99.
in England, it was closed by the Bri-
tish government, and all the horses
confiscated for army use. Since that
time the show has not been out. but
Mr. Miller stated to the Recordman
that it was his intention to reorgan-
ize- it Immediately on a much larger
scale thau the old show.
In former years the Miller Broth-
ers have secured much of their horse
equipment from the King ranch, and
It is probable that they will also call
on Mr. Kleberg for many horses for
the new show. Col. Miller also visited
the Running W. Saddle Shop, he being
much interested in good saddles and
everything that pertains to riding
equipment.
BUILDING COSTS VERY
LOW IN KINGSVILLE
It will lie Interesting to Kingsville
folk who plan to build to learn that
! homes can ho and are being built
l right here in Kingsville at a much
j lower cost than is possible in the
cities. That is the opinion of Mr. W,
D. Potter, of Houston, who was here
for a few days this week, in the inter-
est of a company which is taking
some of the installment paper given
in payment for building here. It was
Mr. Potter’s opinion mat a building
costing $3000 here would cost near
i $5000 if erected in Houston, where he
i is familiar with building coats, by
i reason of his association with build-
! ing notes and the inspection of pro-
perty there ou which his company
carries tho payments.
There Is an unusual activity right
now In building iu Kingsville, and this
| promises to grow as the weeks and
months go by. It is the opinion of
men iu position to know values and
who are forward looking that money-
invested in buildings in Kingsville is
n splendid investment with little or
no chance of the values ever being
lower.

The public will remember the 101
Ranch Wild West Show, which was

the most popular wild west aggrega-
tions on the road for many years.

Drive an Overland and Realize the Difference
Bigger Engine, Bigger Power;
Bigger Comfort, Bigger Value!
ON every basis of comparison—in
looks, action, comfort, endurance and
economy—Overland outshines, out-riv-
als, out-rides, out-runs the field. The
contrast between Overland and any
second choice is all in favor of Overland.
All models have Triplex Springs (Pat-
ented), which pull instead of push the
wheels over bumps—cradling you and
the car against jolts and jars.
All models have the famous Overland
rear axle;—extra big and sturdy, witV
more Timken and New Departure
bearings than any rear axle in any car
anywhere near the price.
All models derive extra strength and
reliability from the liberal use of tough
Mo-lyb-den-um steel in vital parts.
Sound design, sound engineering, sound
construction, all make Overland worthy
of its reptuation for being “The Most
Automobile in the World for the Money*
V ou fee! Overland economy in the pur-
chase price. You experience Overland
economy throughout your entire owner-
ship. Upkeep economy. Operating econ-
omy. In spite of its power, the big
Overland engine gives owners 20 and
more smooth, enjoyable miles to the
gallon of gasoline!
Grant us a demonstration and we willprove to you that we have
