AS BRIDGES SEES IT
W we urge you to go to
the polls on Saturday, Aug.
^3, and cast your ballot. The
P’-incipal contest; to be decided
Ui 2a^urt .a^ s second primary
election is the one between
Congressman Cla/k W. Thomp-
son of Galvesf&n and T. W
Buckshot” Lane of Wharton.
Ct the two contestants, we
consider Thompson to be by
far the better qualified for the
post, with his greater experi-
ence in legislative matters to
back him up, along with his
record as a supporter of the
farmers and ranchers, who
predominate as residents of
our section of the state. But,
vote as you may on Saturday,
we strongly stress the impor-
- . lan?e of Vb.u going to the polls
and expressing your opinion
1 at the ballot box.

A petition is now being cir-
culated in Flatonia requesting
that the Southern Pacific Rail-
way remove the old freight
depot, located downtown. (The
depot is not now being used).
The building detracts from the
appearance of our town and is
considered a traffic hazard, in
that it obstructs vision of the
railroad tracks at a road cross-
?nF would be better if the
building were removed and
the area cleared to become a
part of the present park, or
square". We believe if enough
of our citizens sign the peti-
tion, the railway company will
comply with the request and
promptly remove the building

Annex Aug. 13
On Wednesday evening,

The .fellowship meeting got
oft to a-Hvely, j’ollwptCfe-with
the singing of old favorites.
Old songs such as “Long, Long
Ago’’ and "Down in the Val-
ley,” brought- memories of
days gone by; songs, such as
“Darling ( lejnentine,” brought
broad grins .and enthusiastic
singing; and such novelties as
the "Little Tom Tinker” round
and “Old MacDonald” brought
„v n.° 'ess than eager participa-
Methodist Church, each night ,lon a,ltl hilarious laughter.
' " - Then, tuning to something
a bit more active, the. pastor
led in two games. The first
was a rousing round of mu-
sical chairs and, as you may
have expected, chivalry* won-
the day and a lady took the
last chair.- A quiz game of
brand--p a m ex'a mT t racTemiarks
tested the mental capacities*
revealing that those born in
the ifioitths of-January through
