Self Confidence
Is one of the direct results of having a bank
account. If you have money which is not
needed, and you place that money with our
bank, you know it is absolutely safe until you
do need it. Hence you can look for an invest-
ment in which you can place your money and
get profit.
MAKE OUR BANK YOUR BANK
Keep your deposits with us, and possibly we
can aid you in finding a profitable investment
for your deposit and qther surplus. Money
grows by the cultivation of self confidence.
Let us help you obtain it.

Laborers are busy now, every
available hand having work of
some kind. The cotton is ready
to pick, the corn is being gath-
ered, much grain is being hauled
to this market, and the cement
workers are busy all over that
part of the city between Fourth
street and the public school
building, with a sprinkling of la
borers at a number of other
places about the city. Lampasas
is growing in material wealth,
and will probably continue to
grow in beauty and comeliness.
Where there are no idle people
prosperity must reign.

POX & MILLS Hdw. Co.
The open season for killing
oves, according to the new law
f the State of Texas, began with
eptember 1. The federal laws
rovide that doves may be killed
rom November 1, only. There
the variation. While it is not
robable that the federal game
ardens will interfere with any-
me in Texas for killing doves,
here are many hunters who,
hen the season opens, do not
ry to distinguish between the
ove and the quail, and all is a
atter of sport for them. It is
oped the hunters will observe
the state and federal laws, and
by the state law quail are pro-
tected until December the 1st,
while the federal laws only pro-
tect them to November 1st. While
there is also a conflict in time
here, the state law will probably
be enforced and it is well to be
careful. Doves are plentiful now,
but by November they will all be
gone, whether they are shot by
hunters or not. Quail are not yet
grown and should be protected to
the full limit of the law. No per-
son is allowed to kill more than
fifteen birds of any character in
any one day. Be careful.
The fall session of the district
court will convene Monday with
Judge Robinson, of Belton, pre-
siding. Courts have become
largely a matter of form in this
county, there being little litiga-
tion, showing that the people are
at peace among themselves.

No Indictment in Lynching of Frank.
Marietta, Ga., Sept. 2.—The
Cobb county grand jury investi-
gating the lynching of Leo M.
Frank near Marietta, reported
today:
“We have found several clues
street and will be glad to see
their friends there, when they
get the house and household
goods in order.

have made their home in and
near Lampasas for the past 14 or
15 years, have moved, to Hico,
where Mr. Hughs has acquired
some property, and where they
will make their home in the fut-
any one who could identify any

state that we have been unable
to find enough evidence to indict
any one for this crime.”

The Show
At The Airdome
Will Take Place as Usual
To-Night
Except that it will start earlier
than usual. This is clone in order
to give you a chance to attend both
the picture show and the home tal-
ent Minstrel Show at the Opera
House if you wish to do so.
The Picture Program
Is a good one and you will miss a
treat if you fail to see it. Don’t fail
to come, and don’t forget that the
show starts early.
Admission 5 and 10 Cents
Ladies Accompanied by Persons
With 10c Tickets Will be Admitted
Free. All Men and Boys Must Pay.
Does advertising pay? Ask
Mayor Sparks. He wanted to
sell the former home of his fath-
er, and made a contraot to ad-
vertise it for several days, but
found that a mere mention of the
fact that it could be had at
$1,500.00 was ample, as R. S.
Mills went to his office at once
and closed the trade at the price
asked. Mr. Mills also believes
in advertising and has been al-
most a constant patron of the
Leader for many years. Adver-
tising will sell anything under
the sun, for there is always some
one that wants what you have
and all that is needed is to strike
the proper person. “Advertise
or burst” is about the way the
best business men now look at
the proposition. The Leader is
open for contracts by the year or
any other specified time. Walk
right in. The price is a small
consideration compared with the
results which advertising may
bring.
Ham-Ramsay Revival Reports.
The Temple Daily Telegram,
which carries the reports of the
Ham-Ramsay revival just start-
ed in Temple, will be sent during
the entire campaign of six weeks
for 25 cents. The Telegram is
metropolitan in size and merit
and its regular rate is 60 cents a
month.
