WORRY
YOU?
Dsbt would not worry you very much if you knew that
you would live for many more years and be prosperous,
but—you worry.
We have arranged with a very large corporation to pay
many such debts in case of death by increasing the inter-
est rate approximately 1 per cent per annum.
This proposition does not apply to people who are al-
ready sick or have “one foot in the grave.”
I am now ready to explain the proposition fully to any-
one who is really interested.

Mo -iT y will offer for sale 47 tracts
of Kleberg county real estate to
satisfy judgments taken for delin-
quent taxes.
The list includes some desirable
city property and acreage, hut most
of the listings are in the Mexican
portion of the city. There are 2:>
pieces of city or surburban property,
improved and unimproved, and 21
parcels of farm or pasture land to
old.
The delinquent taxes on which
judgment was taken for 1928 and
iin* amount of indebtedness is less
than $50 in most cases, only three
persons having amounts exceeding
$100 delinquent. These were own-
ers of several tracts.

county, have been most diligent

Moody several months ago.

WHAT BUSINESS OWES TO THE
TOWN
Tlie need for a better under-
j standing of (lie relationship be-
tween business and community wel-
fare is stressed in an article in the
current number of Nation’s Busi-
ness by Henry D. Sharpe, president
Brown & Sharpe Manufacturing
Company. Providence, It. I.
This whole question is particu-
larly important to every commun-
ity at this time in view of the in-
creasing number of corporations
with branches all over the country.
Tlie vital question is: “Shall these
nation-wide organizations contrib-
ute to tlie welfare funds in every
community in which they have
branches, or shall they risk local
animosity by refusing?
The community chest plan, Mr.
Sharpe says, lias eliminated many
of the evils which attended welfare
work in times past. The next step
in putting welfare activities on a
business basis is to develop a plan
whereby all tin* business interests
of tin' community will contribute
their full share toward the support
of this centralized welfare agency.
“In Providence, as elsewhere,”
lie continues, “the role that busi-
ness should pi pay in welfare work
is still somewhat cloudy. Some
concerns appear to be doing less
than their share; others more.
Some, unfortunately, do noth hi g at
all. Tlie chief difficulty centers
■ bout the corporate form of busi-
ness should play in welfare work
eni tendency toward the concentra-
tion of business in larger corpora-
tions. many of them national in
character and without compelling
local ties,
“Tlie individual owner of a busi-
ness. or the partner in n firm, are
obviously free to determine the ex-
tent of their obligations to social
welfare agencies. They can act as
liberally as they are disposed.
“Local corporations are also able
to decide such matters for them-
selves. It Is when we consider
corporations of national scope that
we find it difficult to discover the
acceptance of any definite balance
between the corporation’s business
objective and its donations for indi-
vidual community welfare."
