How to Keep Husband - -

portunity to relax. Make sure
that he discusses his worries
just before going to bed. If he
has to go away from home
on business, see that he does
not waste any time from work
by insuring that he travels at
night.
Encourage him to smoke cig-
arettes excessively. If you see
him wasting his time not smok-
ing, immediately offer him a
cigarette.
But Is It Worth It?
Do not call him early in the
morning. Let him lie in bed so
that he has very little time to
catch the train and has to
run for it, and make certain
that he eats a large breakfast
so that the effort of running
will not be wasted.
Think up as many strenuous

scheduled by the Wink City
Council in order to discuss a
Poplar change in the boundaries of the
Wink Urban Renewal Area and
the closing of certain streets
and alleys to conform with the
proposed plan.
The meeting will he held at
Wink Community Center at 7:30

in the limits of the Urban Re-
newal Area has been proposed

alleys need to be closed.

even minor ones such as these,”
Parr explained, “must be act-
ed on in a public meeting.” He
added that the meeting will be
conducted by Wink Mayor J.
L. Dodd and the City Council

cy) will be there just as very
interested bystanders.”

Winkler County
Republicans Give
Support to Cox
Winkler County Republicans
threw their weight behind Jack
Cox in his successful bid for
the Republican nomination for
Governor Saturday.
Voters gave Cox 133 votes to
Roy Whittenburg’s 9. In the
state, Cox garnered more than
60,000 votes and his opponent
had slightly over 10,000.
In the Lieutenant Governor
spot, Bill Hayes carried Wink-
ler County 98 to Kellis DibrelFs
44. Hayes was a close winner
in the state race, 38,515 to
32,964.
The only other contested Re-
publican contest showed Des
Berry with 50 votes, Joe Phil-
lips with 77 and Giles Miller
with 10. In the state, Phillips
ran last, Miller was second and
Berry swept the race for Con-
gressman-atJLarge.
Allen Kuykendall was elect-
ed County chairman.
Working Wife
The wife who goes out to
work will, if she is honest,
ask herself if, by so doing,
she is increasing the burden
which her husband has to
carry. It is all very well to
say that by increasing the
family income, she makes his
load lighter, but, I ask you,
what business or professional
man ever slackened his ef-
forts because his wife was
earning?
Which do you think is more
important for the kids — to
have plenty of pocket money
or to have a hale and healthy
father around the place?
There is no doubt that it is
better for children of both
sexes and ail ages to have a
father who has time and
health to do things with them,
than any amount of money
that he has ruined his health
getting for them. What is
more, it is much more fun
for all concerned.
damaging thing, especially if he
has cardiovascular disease.
Never let him have his own
way in anything. Always treat
him like a fool, and when he
gets angry, smile at him pity-
ingly. This method is especial
ly effective if he is angry be-
cause of some unnecessary ar-
gument which you have started.
Never let him get away with
anything. If he has made a

mistake, take care to point it ci&tes, said the Hixson hid was
out to him.
Never let him enjoy a meal
in peace. Always serve a hone
of contention with every meal.
And always start an argument
just as your husband is leaving
for the office, and see that he
leaves you in a state of frus
tration or suppressed annoy-
ance. This should be easy be-
cause you probably have a
quicker and sharper tongue than
he has. If you always insist on
having the last word, one of
these days you will have it.
Of course, only a small mi-
nority will want to follow any
of these hints!

under his estimate of $400,000
for the two buildings.
Voters last year set aside
$300,000 for construction of the
hospital additions and improve-
ments, and another $100,000 .or
the library work. In addition,
another $150,000 was voted
for airport improvements.
County Judge W. E. Cook
said he is extremely pleased
with the outcome of the bidding.
“We had included a number of
alternates in our plans with the
hope that if the bids were low
enough we could get some of
them included,” Cook said.
With the Hixson bid as low
as it was we were able to in-
clude all the alternates.”
Johnny Pierce, spokesman for
the Hixson firm, said construc-
tion probably will get under way
within two weeks and comple-
tion is scheduled in 315 calen-
dar days.
