| United States Senator Morris
I Shepparal lias sent The Times
a package of garden seed. If
Morris made this particular se-
lection himSelf, choosing there-
from the tilings lie eats himself,
we admire his tuste. It did not
contain any carrot*, squash,
c luiillo.rer-or pumpkins. There
was an assortment of beans,
b ets, tomatoes, lettuce and on-
ions, and we want to give these
seed to some good farmer iO
grow on the fifteenth and tenth.
We’re too busy publishing a
newspaper*to grow a garden and
our belter half refuses to do so.
S. A. Cunningham and O. B.
Smith of Cunningham, were in
Dallas last week on business.
It has been exactly thirteen
» ago to • day— Friday, Ket
10, 1909, when the first
copy of The Deport Times wss
primed. Today is The Times
birthday, and we are going to
celebrate by talking a lot about
the paper and Its readers. Vol-
ume 14, No. ], appears under
the masthead today and we hope
our fourteenth year will be bet-
ter than the last one. Deport
has had half a dozen newspapers
in the past, but they were all
short-lived. The Times is the
o ily paper that har been able to
ride the rough seas of adversity
year in and year out and atay off
the rocks. It has changed hands
but once since being established.
The present publisher bought it
from its rounder, Claud Council,
on September 2, 1912. There
are over 200 names on its sub-
scription list placed • there thir-
teen years ago that have never
been removed; several hundred
others that were added later
that have never been removed.
There are advertisers whose ads
appeared in that first issue—men
who realized that a newspaper
was one of the town’** greatest
assets and have continuously—
thru thick and thin—given the
paper that hearty support and
substantial co-operation that has
permitted it to continue ita work
of urging the tilings that make
for a better community, better
farms, belter schools, good
roads, better stores, some ot the
comforts and conveniences of
life and a higher class of loyal
American citizenship.
The years of the present pul -
lislier’s residence here have been
licet- footed. Not 1 ecause we
are growing old, hut because we
have been happy in our work and
too busy to heed their High*.
This work lias not been all sun-
shine without shadows, because
we could r.ot please everyone—
we never knew an editor who
did—but we have no ill will to-
wards anyone and have never
been guilty of purposely and
maliciously publishing or refus-
ing to publish an item that was
calculated to benefit or bring re-
proach upon anyone because that
individual—be he rich or poor,
us or our newspaper. There
have been errors, of course, ana
some tilings have appeared in
these columns and others failed

/^NOULD you place a pattern in the clever way this pat-
tern saves material? Possibly after a deal of precious
time. You say, “But I wear size 42 and I want to make my
frock out of taffe-ta which is only 27 inches wide, so this
plan will not help me much.”
But, Madam, that is just where the Belrobe excels. It
gives in each pattern a plan or diagram like the above
for every size, for every suitable width of material and for
every version of your pattern. It saves in actual yardage
from 'i to 1 yards. The saving of that much material,
even at our moderate prices, is worth your consideration.
The Belrobe means economy in dressmaking.
The Belrobe serves in other ways quite as remarkable.
It shows you how to put together, how to fit and
how to finish your garment with all the skill of the
French modiste.

considerate individuals in ty
gy for these short minings Is not
necessary. It matters not how
much time and thought are given
to these things* an editor la only
humun and he will occasionally
do the wrong thing, and upon
occasions he adds fuel to the tire
by trying to correct the^miatake,
when not to mention it again
would be better.
That our readers and friends
are thoughtful and considerate
people is evidenced by the few
complaints that reach us. We
love this people—'there are none
better on God’s footstool—and
tTeie have been no regrets of
Ci-Uingoui lot here. O.rr work
has been^densan*, also profitable
up until the last year, but we
have Taith in this Depo/t country,
and when tire powers that be
shall have given agriculture a
square deal the sunlight of
prosperity will again shine up-
on our community and all will
be well.
There are many things to glad-
den the heart of a country editor
aqd make him realize that his
work is really worth while. For
instance while going down the
street last publication day our
eyes met a sight that was a joy
to our soul. A little nine year-
old girl had one arm full of pack-
ages and with the oilier was
holding a copy of The Times she
had just secured at the post of-
fice. Paying-no attention to the
show windows or the friends she
passed on the sidewalk, her eyes
were glued to the front page of
the paper as site laboriously
spelled the words and tried to
grasp their meaning. To realize
that there are hundreds of such
instances each W*eek is incentive
enougli to cheer an editor in his
duties; to cause him to use the
most simple words in the con-
struction of sentences, and to
make sure that nothing lie prints
will bring a blush of shame to
one 6fThe.se children. Talk
about metropolitan journalism
crowding the small town papers
out of the field —not in a thou-
sand years. Some adults get to
be such high flyers that they re-
i - *.
good or bad did or did not like S^use to recognize “the-little* coun-
try paper,” but to the children
it is “our” paper. And be it
said to the credit of the children
who grow up, marry aad estab-
lish homes of their own, the
writer does not recall but one
instance during the past nine
years where any Deport boy has
made a home of his own but
that lie included a subscription
to The Times along with his
household purchases. Tiie Times
appreciates its readers — big,
little, old and young, and its
owner fs nevsr happier than
when he can put out an edition
that is chock full of good news,
■because he realizes that he
pleases hundreds of his friends
by doing so.

Employing men and women, es-
pecially those who layed off office
help some time ago. Salaries will
soon be raised. During tiie de-
oressed times, business men
learned that it was necessary at
all times to get down to a rock
bottom efficiency basis and in
order to make their business
profitable, it is necessary always
to employ the very best office
help. Which class is to be em
ployed at a time like this, the
trained worker or the unskilled
man who has no special ability?
The trained worker is always
the first to be employed. He is
sure of his job and draws the
best salary. The man or woman
who is prepared for his or her
work is tiie one who stays on the
pay roll.
Specialized training will lift
anyone above tiie masses. Ability
is nothing but an average brain
specially prepared. Such hair-
ing is necessaiy to success in
this age of specialization. Brains
are at a premium. There are
plenty of men and women for tiie
ordinary job that pays an ordi-
nary salary, but the demand for
high-priced workers for big jobs
is always greater than the supply.
Do you lealize that you can put
yourself in the class of trained
workers in a few month's time?

est business training institute in
