How has it failed?
What have been its marked
Successes?
What new sense of obligation
rests upon its conscience ?
What is the special task of
home missions?
‘ American dem o c r a c y—what
does it require?
| Wealth and poverty—how do
'these menace American life?
A “fair chance”—how is it im-
periled?
| Education—what does it mean;
how is it threatened?
I What is the value of the Amer-
ican as contrasted with the Con-
tinental Sabbath?
What dangers threaten the
home and home life?
1 How does mammon menace
our American ideals?
• How can the Church increase
its practical power?
W. F. Barnes is at home from
£an Antonio, where he apent a
*woek or more pleasantly.
L. Culbertson has succeeded
T. J. Sims as street sprinkler,
and tried his work on upper
Third street Sunday morning.
The task was a huge one, but he
may try it again.
Judge M. V. B. Sparks has
been confined to his home for
some days with a paralytic stroke,
his lower limbs being involved.
His sons, L. R. and Buren, are
with him and it is hoped he will
soon recover.
Lometa voted to incorporate
Saturday, the majority in favor
of the measure being 17 votes.
Now for the officers. Properly
managed, the town should be
much better every way incorpor-
ated than without a city govern-
ment. May success attend the
endeavor.
The city schools opened Mon-
day morning, and it is probable
the attendance will be larger this
year than last. The streets have
been crowded with children since
about 10 o’clock, and the demand
for books has been extraordinary.
See that the children are kept in
school.
Chris Dorbandt, who has been
here under treatment for some
months, was taken to Temple for
an operation, and was operated
upon Sunday for liver trouble.
For a time it was thought he
would not rally, but messages
Monday morning stated that he
was better and would probably
recover. He has had several
attacks of the same trouble, and
is not yet safe from it.
Noble Bros, in Bankruptcy.
A petition in voluntary bank-
ruptcy will be filed today by No-
ble Bros, with the referee in
bankruptcy at Austin, the liabil-
ities being estimated at $16,500,
while the assets are placed at
$20,000.
The assets of the firm include
the personal property of both
Ernest and Elton Noble, some of
which is exempt under the law,
but do not include outlawed ac-
counts, many of which will be
collected, nor do they include in-
terest upon any of the accounts
or notes due the firm. The lia-
bilities include all indebtedness
of not only the firm but of the
personal property of Ernest and
Elton Noble.
With proper management it is
confidently expected that the firm
will be able to pay 100 cents up-
on the dollar.
The ac|iiou of Noble Bros, in
voluntarily making the assign-
ment is a matter of regret to all
Brady citizens. Both are splen-
did business men and are enter-
prising and hurtling—in fact just
such live wires as are needed in
any community. As will be ob-
served from their statement the
business was in good shape, but
like most every merchant in this
section, colleetibns have been
slow during the past three years,
and with the fourth short year
at hand, making collections to
any great extent an impossibility,
they decided the best course of
action would be to turn the bus-
iness and their personal holdings
over to their creditors.
While neither have made any
definite plans for the future, Mr.
Ernest Noble will probably en-
joy a much needed rest for the
next several months, his health
having been bad lot* some time.
Elton Noble has several propo-
sitions under contemplation, but
has not decided upon any of
them.—Brady Standard.

Takeji visit to the country and
observe the condition of the
roads. While there is plenty of
dust and travel is not that de-
lightful employment which it is
at times, the roads are smooth,
largely free from dust holes and
show the result of the labor
which has been expended upon
them. Lampasas has better
roads than any section pf which
we know, and the commission-
ers court deserves oredit for their
good condition.
