The Segrist Twins
Gain Notoriety
(FROM THE J-TAC)
The Segrist twins live in the
nearby town of Hico and were
senior students in our institution
last year. The St. Louis Post-Dis-
patch published the pictures of our
friends in the proto-gravure sec-
tion of that paper last Sunday with
the complimented distinguished
position as being the most beauti-
ful set of twins in the State of
Texas. This is a token of esteem
paid to worth. These girls stood
ace high among the student body
of Tarleton last year and we are
delighted to hear of these marks of
reality.
Mr. Peter Shih will lecture at
the John Tarleton College auditor-
ium Friday night in the interest of
the Texas-Brazil special. The
general public is cordially invited
to hear Mr. Shih who is reported
to be a very interesting lecturer.
J. C. Dykes, coach of the Steph-
enville high school football team

come out to the game at four
o’clock.

win home.
John W. Biggs of Anson was the

J. C .Dykes, principal of the
High School, is quite ill this week
with dengue fever. It was hoped
the dengue epidemic would finally
subside after the fall rains and
with the approach of cold weather,
but evidently those two forces have
not seriously affected the germ
spreading mosquito that carries
that disease. The friends of Mr.
Dykes are hoping he will soon be
^ip and feeling fine.

The Cost of Accuracy
Why do many doctors, in exceptionally dangerous cases,
IF INTERESTED
PHONE 182
Mrs. Grace Stewart
almost insist upon prescriptions being taken to certain
drug stores?
Because they know the penalty of inaccuracy. Because
they know that a life may pay for a single error on the
part of the druggist.
Fidelity and accuracy are our first and last considera-
tions in the preparation of prescriptions brought to us.
Doctors know this and the public is rapidly learning it.
We have just space enough in this ad to call the atten-
tion of smokers to our splendid line of cigars. Great smokes
