Several babies were noticed in the
room Monday afternoon. They were
quietly sleeping and "laughing with
the angels,” as the old Black Mam-
mies used to tell us, when a baby
laughed in its sleep, while their moth-
ers were out in the city shopping,
without having to be interrupted ev-
ery now and then to see about baby.
Come to think about it, the Rest
i Room would be a crackerjack place
| for Daddy and Wifey to leave Snook-
: ums, who is as much trouble us a sort
! toe every Sunday in the funny papers.
If Aunt Emma Flowers did not get
some of the foolishness out of that
little boob, then we miss our guess.

From McKinney Courier-Gazette.
Mrs. N. A. Botnar has just returned
from Bonham where she has been on
n three weeks visit to her daughter.
Mrs. II. C. Ausburn. Mr. Ausburn is
having a fine business in Bonham.
Mrs. Bontar was charmed with two
things that she saw in our sister city.
One was the cleanliness of the town,
and the other win the attendance at
church of so larg ■ a number, espec
ially men, of those people. Four hun-
dred and fifty were present at one
Sunday school on last Sunday. The
men, Mrs. Romar says, are regular at-
tendants at church, and teachers in
the Sunday school; and active in other
church duties. The town, Mrs. Bo-
mar says, is the cleanest she has ev-
er seen.

Fannin county is composed of a
people who are democratic in their
views. Many have said since the
Good Roads election on January 24th,
that they hnd no idea that there was
such a majority of the people in this
district favoring the Good Road bond
issue; that they expected to vote foi
it next time. The NEXT TIME is less
than two weeks off—March 24th i
the day. We call upon every mun in
this district who favors good road
to GET BUSY and STAY RUSY until
the polls close. Get organized in youi
community. Have every man who can
vote join the good roads club. Talk
good roads at home, at the store, on
the road, in the field, at the Mack
smith shop, and we will win.
Don't let some of these KNOW
EVERYTHING fellows fool you.
There will be plenty of road mileage
for every community in the district.
The County Engineer of Dallas coun-
ty says over his own signature that
Dullas county has 500 miles of good
roads, and that the average cost wu.
just $3,000 per mile. If we can build
this cheaply we will have 100 miles of
road. If they cost us $4,000 per mill
we will have 75 miles of road and the
mileage will build a road out of Hon-
ham in every direction to entire dis
trict line, and a number of branch
roads. We huve something in oui
favor, and thut is, in the expensive
parts of the districts the grading is
practically all done, and many steel
bridges are in place.
Bonham pays nearly three-fourth
of this entire bond issue, and is JUST
as anxious to reach every nook and
corner of the district as that point is j
to be reached. The Commissioners -
you elect will lay out the roads, and
we believe that they will be honest I
men. We are willing to risk OUR
money with YOUR Commissioner. |
Get busy. Keep busy. Keep in touch
with us. B? careful about the fellow
who tells you how sorry he is for you
having to ray this THIRTY CENTS. I
It is HIS 30 cents he wants you t >
help him save.
