MRS. JACK ADAMS HOSTESS
TO WEDNESDAY STUDY CLUB
Hamlin Garland’s “Rose of Dut-
cher’s Cooly,” was the novel discussed
when Mrs. Adams was hostess to the
club at the home of Mr. J. O. Mace,
Wednesday, Nov. 1.
Facts from Garland’s life were pre-
sented by Mrs. R. E. Bristol who also
read a poem relative to the lesson,
“The Man With the Hoe,” by Edwin
Markham.
Topics from the novel, “The Rose
of Dutcher’s Cooly,” (the most suc-
cessful novel of Garland) touched his
realism, splendid characterization, co-
educational views, etc.; these were
given by Mesdames George Culver,
N. B. Taylor, B. C. Knight and Walter
Martin.
A most enjoyable feature of the
program was a report given by Mrs.
Tom Richey on Garland’s “Main Trav-
eled Roads,” the book of short stories
that brought him into fame. With
the publication of this volume the
short story took a new turn. Gar-
land swept aside the thin veil of sen-
timent and romance formerly drawn
on local color scenes and reveals the
west of the pioneer in the unflatter-
ing light of day. He pictures typical
experiences not as the dreamer sees
them, but as the working farmer en-
dures them.
Two interesting visitors were wel-
comes into the meeting, Mesdames
Robinson and Craddock.
At the conclusion of the round
table discussion Mrs. Adams passed
a pleasing refreshment plate consist-
ing of coffee, individual pumpkin pies
and salted nuts.—Reporter.

Mrs. J. E. Willerson, accompanied
by Mrs. C. E. Koon and Miss Minnie
Crawford, visited Thursday in Temple
with Dr. J. E. Willerson, who is in a
hospital of that city. Dr. Willer-
son’s condition is improved and it
may be that he will not undergo an
operation as first planned.

(WET LAWS MAY BE tf)!§CARDED
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.—The re-
moval of federal prohibition enforce-
ment laws from the statute books and
revision of liquor taxes and tariffs
today were placed by Speaker Rainey
at the top of the legislative calendar
for the January session of congress.
Although the Volstead act would
be nullified if the prohibition amend-
ment were repealed, except for its
application in the District of Colum-
bia and in territories, Rainey said it
should be eliminated.
Early action on a bill being pre-
pared by the ways and means com-
mittee to increase the liquor taxes
from $1.10 a gallon to between $2.50
and $3 was forecast by the speaker.
He said this would permit an imme-
diate flow of needed revenue into the
treasury. He expressed the hope that
the liquor taxes will not “be high.”
“Repeal of the Volstead act will
not be very difficult,” Rainey said.
“The house judiciary committee could
meet probably in December and pre-
pare the bill in view of the fact that
no hearing will be required.”
With 33 states having voted to
ratify repeal and six balloting next
Tuesday, the speaker told newspaper
men that ratification “is certain.”
The view that the move would be
made to repeal the so-called Reed
amendment which prohibits newspa-
pers and other publications from
sending into dry states issues carry-
ing liquor advertisements also was
expressed by Rainey.

EACH
This has a Special
Meaning for Homes
The Penney “New Deal” has
brought direct benefits to many
millions of families . . . three
generations of people.
These benefits ... direct sav-
ings in money spent and the
satisfaction in use which only
honest merchandise provides
... rest squarely on economies
of operation passed on to
the customer.
This did not take place over-
night. It took time.
The national-“New Deal,”
too, may require time before
each one of us feels any direct
benefit. But the purpose of the
program provides just that. . .
better opportunities, better
conditions, lower taxes.
That means a lot to every
family. But it demands co-
operation and support.
The Penney “New Deal” is
in effect now. It offers values
for every member of the fam-
ily. It offers, too, interested,
thoughtful service by store
personnel who take a real in-
terest in your needs ... they’re
local people ... your neighbors.
For 31 years the Penney organization
has been proving in actual service the
soundness of today’s “New Deal.”
*NE of the very first organizations to display this
symbol of the industrial “New Deal” was the J. C.
Penney Company.
To qualify required no great preparation ... no drastic
“reorganization.” For the Penney stores had been con-
ducted on N.R.A. principles ever since the first of these
stores was founded . . . back in 1902.
At Penney’s the "New Deal” is actually thirty-one years old!
For many of the fundamentals on which this national association
of locally operated stores rests are strikingly similar to those of
today’s great governmental program.
J. C. Penney’s idea was simple. Employees were to have a
chance to share in ownership. Wages would provide for real liv-
ing, not bare existence. Each sale would show a small profit, but
there’d be many sales. Merchandise would be plainly marked,
sold for just what it was. Experience would be pooled to develop
operating efficiency at rock-bottom cost. Waste would not be
tolerated. Commonplace phrases today . . . but “revolutionary*
in the mercantile world of 1902!
The Penney “New Deal” worked. More and more stores were
required to supply the needs of a buying public that, almost for
the first time, was actually sharing in economies of operation.
Penney values simply could not be duplicated. For serving (not
dominating) those stores was a skilled and experienced central
buying staff that knew values and where to find them.
Today there are nearly fifteen hundred Penney stores, living
proof that the principles for which the “Blue Eagle” stands are
sound, that the difficulties can be overcome, theft cooperation will
make such a plan win out.
That’s why the J. C. Penney organization believes in the “New
Deal.” It has seen it at work for 31 years!

SWOPE’S PLAN FOR BUSI-
NESS NRA DOUBTFUL
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.—A divis-
ion of opinion with industry itself, a
frankly skeptical attitude on the
part of labor and the reiterated de-
termination' of the government not
to relax its participation, supervision
and veto power over industry, as pro-
vided in the recovery codes, today
clouded the future of the Swope plan.
Advanced by Gerard Swope, presi-
dent of the General Electric company
and until Wednesday a member of
the National Industrial Advisory
board, the tj|plan calls for a super
chamber of commerce and industry
which would serve as an appeal board
for the administration of codes.
Its purpose, as described by Swope,
would be to establish an industrial
self-government to avoid government
organization and governing of indus-
try “with the consequent paralyzing
effects on initiative and progress.”

TWO GET LIFE TERMS
FOR KILLING BABY BOY
JEFFERSON, Ohio, Nov. 2.—Mer-
tis Fleming, the middle-aged farmer
who hated boy babies, and wife, Alle-
ta, were sentenced to life imprison-
ment Thursday for the murder of
their 2-month-old son last August.
They pleaded guilty to charges of
second degree murder before Judge
Charles R. Sargent, who promptly
ordered Fleming sent to the Ohio
State penitentiary for life, at hard
labor, and Mrs. Fleming to Marysville
with the same kind of sentence.
Mrs. Fleming said her husband did
not like boy babies because they fret-
ted at night and kept him awake, al-
though he had no objection to their
2-year-old daughter.

DALLAS FLYER CRASHES
IN STREET, BUT UNHURT
CHARLOTTE, N. C., Nov. 2.—Lee
Haynes, Dallas aviator, escaped seri-
ous injury when the airplane he was
flying in an air show fell 3,000 feet
here Thursday and crashed on a street
a few yards from a large manufac-
turing plant.
t Haynes said he did not use his par-
achute for fear the plane would get
out of control and do heavy damage
as it crashed.
Suffering only head bruises and a
spi’ained back, the aviator was able
to walk from an ambulance into a
hospital. Motor failure was blamed
for the crash.
