principal aim to please people. We carry everything that a hardware store is supposed to handle and some more
things besides and there is no use waiting further for cheap hardware as we have the best quality of all lines of

BARN BURNS
The barn of Geo. B. Hatley, of the
Adamsville community was completely
destroyed by fire Sunday. No one
>was at home at the time of the fire
land it is not known how it caught. Mr.
Slatley had his harness in the barn
with 700 bushels of com and a large
tamount of other feed stuff, all of
which wab completely destroyed. He
happened to be riding horseback and
saved the saddle, the only thing he
saved that was insured. He carried
"ansurance to the amount of $1,050.00,
and estimates the saddle was worth
$20.00. The insurance will of course
help him out considerably, but will
by .no means civer the loss.

cleansed of dirt or impurities and
dressed with Liquid Borozone. It heals
the flesh with marvelous speed. Price

SCHOOL BOARD MEETING
The Lampasas County School Board
met Wednesday in Lampasas, and
transacted a very important piece of
business. The board is composed of

mark, Kempner; Jess Wright, Nix;
J. W. Lee, Lometa; Walter Walker,
Unity, and Judge W. H. Adkins, sec-

In an effort to improve the rural
schools of the county, two schools have
been consolidated, that of Stanley
Chapel and Friendship, and a new
school building will be erected. An
election will be ordered next week to
levy a tax to secure the funds, and the
new school building will be erected
near the home of W. C. Armstrong.
The two schools will finish out their
present terms separately,/but by the
next term the new school building will
be ready. When a community works
for the betterment of her school facil-
ities, that is a sure sign of progress.

The Road to ^iV^ealth
The road to wealth is something nearly everybody is searching for,
but it is found by only a very few people.
It is no royal road of ease. It is ordinarily a slow but sure road,
often a hard road to travel and one that requires much work and care-
ful saving. Would you travel the road to wealth? We can help you.
Begin now by opening an account at our bank. Start the saving habit
today and you will make the first step toward the road to wealth. Keep
it up and you will land.
