WORK, THE EVIDENCE
AN OPPORTUNITY THAT
SHOULD BE KEPT OPEN
There are thousands of
leading’ citizens in Texas to-
day who owe their capacity
for leadership to the fact that
educational opportunity was
afforded th°m in youth at a
price which they were able
to pay. Many of these thou-
sands found it possible to
make their way through col-
lege. The State is the gainer.
Advocates of sweeping
chancres in the educational
system of Texas at this time
should weigh the oossible ef-
fect^ of somn nf th°’r recom-
mendations before they press
th°m so strongly as to bring
about their adoption. One of
the items is that tuition fees
in State inst’utions be raised
materially. There may be
sound argument for some in-
crease from the taxpayer’s
viewpoint, but there is sound-
er argument against a hike
in tuition costs as would
close the doors of the State
institulons of higher educa-
tion to the sons and daugh-
ters of citizes of average
mean-.
It is upon such families,
now as always, that the
strength of Texas is founded.
They are in the large ma-
jority, and it is from them
that the greater number of
exceptional young men and
women will come. It is to the
exceptional that educational
opportunity will mean most.
There should be no such ill-
considered increa-e in tuition
charges as will deny to those
their opportunity to share in
what the State institutions
have to ofTer.—Dallas Jour-
nal.

John the Baptist was the

sook the cities as being wick-
ed beyond any hope, and
pitched his camp in a wilder-
ness beside the banks of the
Jordan. For clothes he wore
the skins of anjmals; his
food was locusts and wild'
honey. He indulged in long
fasts and vigils, from which
he emerged with flaming
ed to argue or defend. “Go
and tell your master what
you have seen and heard,”
he said. “The sick are heal-
ed. the blind receive their
sight and the poor have the
gospel preached to them . . .

HOLLIS WHITE
CANDIDATE FOR
MAYORCOOPER
-®-
In making my announcement for
Mayor of COoper, I realize the im-
portance of the place arid as a cit-
izen, business man and taxpayer
of Cooper for the greater part of
my life, I know that somethings
must be done, and done now, to
relieve the burden of the taxpay-
ers of our town.
The cost of administering the
government of a town the size of
Cooper is too high It can and
must be reduced, and if you will
elect me your Mayor for the next
two years, I will promise to con-
duct the affairs of this office to
an economical and business-like
manner, giving to the duties of
same my entire time, eliminate all
unnecessary expense.
I weU remember how great has
been the promises of others seek-
ing offices, and after election so
little done in the interest of people
generally.
There are some reforms needed
that can help relieve the burden,
that should be given consideration
first of all, and that Is our public
utilities are charging too high rate
for their services under the pres-
ent standard of prices. While pres-
ident of the Chamber of Com-
merce I had occasion to make con-
sidemble inquiry as to rates charg-
ed to other towns in Texas, and
we have not been given as low rate
as we should be given, and I will
use my efforts to secure such re-
duction as we should have under
the conditions as exist.
If reliably informed, tlhe city
water rate should toe cut, either in
price per gallon, or given more
water for the same amount of
money.
T am in accord with the opinion
of many of our citizens that the
cost of administering our city gov-
ernment is entirely too high, and
if conducted on the same line as
other business institutions are ope-
rating, a considerable sum can be
saved
I am also opposed to the city
Operating any kind of business, in
competition with the business men
of the town, and if elected Miayor
I will1 forthwith dispose of all
plumbing stock and supplies, and
give my time to the City’s affairs
and leave private business to oth-
ers.
I believe in Cooper and Cooper
people, and that wc are entitled
to the toe and if elected I will
b<» on the job every hour to the
end that we may make tliis the
best 1cwn of its size in Texas.
Yours for the best interest of
Cooper,
HOLLIS WHITE

This spring coat with its becom-
ing girlish tones is a model that
should be quite popular this season.
The caracul collar and cuff-tipped
sleeves give that poster contrast
when the coat is of carrot-red
angora-finished woolen with metal
button trim. The hips are ex-
tremely flat. The slenderness is
scheme for now and spring.
The sleeves tell their own story.
The slightly dropped shoulder, the
muttond fullness .tapering off to a
medium-fitted forearm is quite
chic. The pleate fullness at the
shoulder is ven presire . . and
smart.

When Mother’s hands are folded;

Any little soreness in the throat grows rapidly worse if
neglected. Crush some tablets of genuine Bayer Aspirin
in some water, and gargle at once. This gives you instant
relief, and reduces danger from infection. One good gargle
and you can feel safe. If all soreness is not gone promptly,
repeat. There’s usually a cold with the sore throat, so
before gargling take two tablets to throw off your cold,
headache, stiffness or other cold symptoms. Bayer
Aspirin relieves neuralgia, neuritis, too. You may use it
freely, it does not hurt the heart.
