LOCAL MAGICIAN HOLDS AUDI-
ENCE SPELLBOUND
Nearly a capacity house greeted
Dr. Gaffney for his opening-perform-
ance at the Leroy Theater last night.
The magician made his appearance
to the mystic strains of music by the
Hokum Heralds orchestra offering a
series of very clever manipulations I
with billiard balls, cards and silks, j
Producing a woman from nowhere
and causing her to vanish* in an in-
stant, are only a few of the brain
tangling feats that made the audience
sit up and lean forward- in their
seats. Perhaps one of the most in-
teresting was the growing of a flower
bush some three feet tall in a flow-
er pot he had proven solid and empty.
To be sure everyone knew they were
paper but when he cut them from the
bush and tossed them to the specta-
tors who carried them home, real,
flowers, they had something to think
about. There was much comment on
leaving the theatre and in general
was pronounced the finest of its kind
ever seen in Lampasas. Dr. Gaffney
is assisted by Mr. and Mrs. Otha
Cantrell. The performance will be
repeated tonight. (d*)
The Brady Cooperative Poultry
Association last week, sold to an
Iowa buyer 6,000 Bronze turkey eggs
for $720 cash. Delivery to be made
between March 12 and 14. This price
is at the rate of $1.44 a dozen.
ACTIVITIES ON HIGHWAY NO. 66
(Burnet Bulletin)
Surveyors arrived in Burnet the
latter part of last week and are en-
gaged in completing some surveying
on Highway No. 66. We understand
there will be some changes from the
route that was designated last sum-
mer. This work will take three weeks
or a month when it is reported con-
struction of the highway will be
started from Burnet on north. The
road has been built to this place, but
for several months there has been no
further work, owing to some ques-
tions connected with the acquiring of
a right-of-way. If this work starts
as now seems probable, it will give
quite a number of people employment
for the next few months, and thus
help the community generally.
SPECIAL—A 5c bag of home-made
candy and a 5c bag of salted nuts
both for 6c at Reynolds House, across
from Baptist Church. (dp)
Jess Stewart and daughter, Miss
Helen, and Mrs. Ernest Hensley of

interests here.
D. T. Briggs went to Burnet Fri-
day to look after business interests
connected with the Burnet Furniture
company.

New Potatoes, Cauliflower, Carrots, Green Onions,
Sweet Peppers, Greens, Turnips and Tops, Yams.
