WANTED: TWELVE MILLION
JOBS
If an individual analysis could be
nade of the lives of a majority of
he people who are out of employment
it would, no doubt, be a revelation.
Not in all cases, of course, because
housands of people in all professions
vho are well qualified are out of em-
ployment. In a majority of cases; we
would likely find that the individual
.'ailed to realize soon enough in life
;he importance of a practical train-
ing in some good vocation or profes-
sion.
For instance, look what radio is do-
ing. Could our fore-fathers have had
the opportunities that Radio offers
to prepare themselves, we feel sure
they would have welcomed them
with outstretched arms. This is the
age of Radio and it is THE means of
communication of the future. It is
true that radio is yet a mere infant,
and only, a few people have any con-
ception of what a giant it is to become
With its growth is coming a new order
of things.
Never in the history of the world
has the future held such opportunities
for a real service for those who are
well trained in Radio. Unlike most of
the professions, Radio is not over
crowded. So far, it has attracted only
young men into the profession, and
this means more jobs with better pay
for those who are qualified.
Every young man who is casting
■about for a suitable vocation would
certainly do well to investigate the
possibilities offered in Radio The
South’s foremost School of Radio is
operated by the Tyler Commercial
College and School of Business Ad-
ministration at Tyler, Texas. An in-
teresting booklet descriptive of this
big school will be sent to any interest-
ed. Address the Tyler Commercial
College and School of Business Ad-
ministration, Tyler, Texas, and ask
for Booklet „R-6.”

RURAL SCHOOLS
Ely School
The school work has been improving
excellently. The sixth grade has been
studying in English all of the differ-
ent parts of speech. In English the
fifth grade has been studying and
spending quite a bit of time on “The
Flag Goes By,” and “Allegiance to the
Flag.” The seventh grade are study-
ing about government and education
in Texas which is one of the most
interesting things in Civics. They
have also made a drawing showing
the way taxes are distributed. The
eighth grade has been studying
about the northmen and the Normans.
About their religion and their govern-
ment which was very important in
History.
On Monday morning March 6 ,the
Ely school had their regular chapel
meeting. Our teacher Mr. Nelson and;
pupils put on a special program. The
otner room was invited to come in
and be with us. Songs were sung and
leadings were given.
The Ely school news was read to
the entire school which was very in-
teresting. All seemed to enjoy them
selves and1 it was a very interesting
program, especially the part ,‘We
w oncer Why” There was quite a
bit of wondering and some of it would
be hard to guess. Oh, about ‘,one
diamond ring”.
The Ely basketball boys easily de-
feated Whitewright, Wednesday
arter school. it seemed at first
that Ely boys could not stop them at
any methods but the Ely boys de-
feated them by a score of 11 to 13,.
Friday we played two games with
Ector females and males. The Ely
boys were afraid of the Lions but
they scored over them 17 to 7 but they
had to fight very hard to win.
The Ely! lineup: forwards, Beasley
and Medaris; centers Clark; guards,
Lane and Massey, substitutes: Philips
for Lane; Harrison was sick and could
not play.
The Ely females side of the question
defeated the Ector girls 18 to 16.
They were awful disappointed be-
cause they had their mind made up
to win the game.
Ely lineup: forwards: Clark and
Dodd Centers; Partridge and Brawd-
shaw; guards, Ross and Clark.
Reporters Georgia Mae Hicks,
Normagene Smith and Helen Marie
Lane.
Build Up Health
and Pains Go Away
WOMEN who suffer from weak-
ness often have many aches and
pains which a stronger state of health
would prevent.
Women in this condition should
take Cardui, a purely vegetable tonic
that has been in use for over 50 years.
Take Cardui to improve the general
tone of the system in cases of run-
down health and “tired nerves.”
Women have found, in such cases,
that Cardui helps them to overcome
pains and make the monthly periods
easier.
CARDUI is safe and wholesome
for women of all ages. Try It!
Sold at the drug store.
