In Men’s and Young Men’s Suits
The “Cake” is Ours 1
When it comes to Snappy Clothes at reasonable prices, we claim “the cake” this season. We really think we
have a right to claim it. We are not alone in thinking it either. There are many others. Any man who has
looked around and them come to our Men’s store and viewed our showing, will certainly say that our New FalL
Suits are “top-notchers.” He can’t say otherwise and tell the truth. Then, as to clinch the whole matter, comesj
our most fair prices. We haven’t heard a single looker say too much or “too high.” If you are open to convic-
tion, come in and get under the tape line and let our expert and most courteous clothing salesman show and tell you
about the goodness of our clothing, made up for us by The House of Kuppenheimer and Spero, Michael & Co.
You will find a few moments spent in our Men’s Wear section instructive, inter-
esting and most profitable. We will convince you beyond a hair’s breadth of a
doubt that, no matter what your vocation in life is, Higdon-Senterfitt-Andrew
Co. is the logical place to buy your Fall and Winter Suit, Whether you are ready
to buy or not, take a look for yourself as seeing will certainly make a “believer”
out of you.

School Teachers.
It is said that scores of teach-
ers in Texas who had abandoned
the profession are now coming
back into the fold. As a result
teachers’ ranks are being over-
crowded, according to Dr. Eby,
dean of the University Summer
School and head of the Univer-
sity Teachers’ Employment Bu-
reau. Of 481 applications so far
received, the bureau has been
able to. place about 300. No
doubt some of those teachers be-
long to that class who on leaving
school taught a short while mere-
ly to “get a start towards some-
thing better.” They had nev-
er thought of making teach-
ing a life profession, their hearts
were not in the work and when a
few dollars had been accumulat-
ed they went into something else.
On the other hand doubtless
there are in the ranks of these
returning 481 teachers those who
sought that line as a matter of
preference and by reason of a
lack of fair remuneration they
later sought other fields. Two
things should be done. One is
that the “temporary” teacher
should be discouraged while the
“permanent” teacher is given
the enoouragement to which he
is justly entitled, whijh is to say
that he should be paid a remu-
nerative salary. The responsi-
bilities of a teacher are heavy
and wearing. The one who
molds or aids directly in molding
character, as the teacher does,
should be carefully ohosen, and
in order that only the more cap-
able may be selected, the salary
should be such as will call forth
men and women of the best ca-
pabilities in all respects and
keep them in the work. The ed-
ucation of our children should
never be treated lightly and in
no manner should it be neglect-
ed.—Corsicana Sun.
Mrs. W. P. Collins is at home
from a visit to the great exposi-
tions in the west. She was a
guest in the home of F. W. Pope
and family while in San Fran-
cisco.
It is suggested that the new
sidewalks should be protected at
least until the cement has time to
set, and that walking upon such
walks when they are protected
by boards at each end should not
be allowed. These well known
rules are being violated every
day, and The Leader has been
requested to call attention to the
need of protecting these new
walks until they have time to dry
and harden. It is also suggest-
ed that disfiguring such walks
by making letters therein should
not be practiced, but what is the
use, people who do such things
do not read, in faot in many in-
stances they cannot either read
or spell. Tell them. They will
bear that kind of teaching. The
individual who would disfigure
property of another is either ig-
norant or vicious, and probably
has both there acquirements.
Wait Paint
There are painters and waiters.
Which am I going to do? Paint or wait?
Which is better!
How much am I worth with my
property waiting? How much if I
paint? Will my house be worth more
or less if I paint?
* Say it costs $2 a gallon Devoe—I
wouldn’t paint any other—and $3 or
$4 more for putting it on, That’s $50
or $00 a 10-gallon job.
The money is gone. Is it in the
house? Is it all in the house?
Suppose I were selling; what should
I get for that house fresh-painted and
what should I get for it needing-paint?
I wonder why men paint before sell-
ing!
DEYOE
W.F.& J.IF. Barnes Lumber Co. sell it.
Letters received here an-
nounce the death of R. T. Brown
at his home in Duncan, Okla.
Mr. Brown was a resident of this
county for many years, having
lived in the neighborhood of Pe-
can Grove and on another place
just west of his first home there,
which he sold to Harvey Groves.
He was known as “Watermelon
Brown” from the fact that he al-
ways produced large quantities
of melons, as well as to distin-
guish him from a number of oth-
er Browns, who lived adjacent to
him. He was a member of the
Baptist churoh, and often at-
tended the associational meetings
as a delegate from the church
where he held his membership.
Thirteen hundred and fifty
head of cattle went out from this
county to Fort Worth Sunday,
1200 being shipped by J. F.
White and 150 by Reeves
Brown. These are only a part
of the cattle which Mr. White
sold to a Mr. Russell, of Fort
Worth, some time ago, the re-
mainder of about 1700 head to be
shipped later. While these gen-
tlemen are shipping out the cat-
tle, there are others who are
shipping in and seeking a mar-
ket for sale of those brought
here. Grass is abundant here
now and pasturage is easily se-
cured.
Five stone makons and two or
three times as many helpers are
busily engaged in putting up the
walls of the new postoffice build-
ing, and it is hoped it will be
ready foi^ use by the time re-
quested by the government,
which is November 1, of this
year. From the number of
openings provided there will be
plenty of light and good ventila-
tion. '■
Mrs. Claud Allen, of San An-
gelo, is a guest of her mother,
Mrs. L. R. Scott. Mrs. Allen
has been spending some time in
California, and came back by
the northern route in order to
stop for a few days in Lampasas.
Communion of the Spirit.
Just the being with someone whom
you love, and know loves you, gives a
feeling of rest and comfort.—“Time(
o’ Day,” by Doris Egerton Jones.
Uncfe Efoen.
“Some men gits credit foh habbin’
a good disposition,” said Uncle Eben,
“mos’ly because dey is so fixed dot
dejr’s in a position to have purty
much deir own way.”
Something of a Hint.
. Mr. Slowboy (calling on girl)—“You
seem—er—rather distant this eve-
ning.” Girl—“Well, your chair isn't
nailed down, is it?”—Brooklyn Eagle.
Charley’s Compliment.
Little Charley was saying good-
night. After kissing his grandmother,
uncle and father, he came to his mam-
ma. “Why do you 1 ; sha
said. “Oh, well," *n fep
low, "you see I don’t warn, your kiss
to come off.”
High Water at Columbus.
Columbus, Tex., Sept. 19.—
The Colorado river rose rapidly
Saturday evening and registered
thirty feet at the pier of the east
bridge Sunday morning. It is
rising slowly. Considerable drift
came with the rise, among which
were seen drowned animals,
furniture, mattresses, pillows,
hay, melons, kershaws, skiffs,
lumber and ties. Stock was
taken from the low lands. Large
quantities of fish, smothered by
the muddy water, were dipped
up along the river’s edge, prin-
cipally catfish, tbough gaspers
and a few large perch were
caught. None of the fish were
dead.
