The White ranch supply house was
burglarized one night last week. A
few groceries were reported to be
missing. This is the second time this
year the supply house has been brok-
en into.
The school children are practicing
on a program, directed by teachers,

Mrs. H.C.McEwen and Mr. «£ Mrs. B.J.
Cochran made a trip to Anson last,
week. Mrs. Cochran is taking treat-
ment there.
A light shower of nun fell here on
Sunday afternoon, and a heavier one
Monday afternoon, there wasn't enuf
to put out any stock water but <i will
greatly encourage planting.
There is a lot of feed up throughout
the neighborhood and some cotton has
ben planted.
The web worms have made their
appearance earlier this year than ever
before, they have done very little dam
age so far, but they are plentiful.
The boys have worked their
ball diamond over. It is now in good
condition and they are asking for a
game at home.
BASE BALI.
The Johnson Chopel "Cotton-pick-
ers" played their first matched game
at-Guiana Saturday two weeks ago.
They led the Oriana boys by several
scores until the seventh inning. The
last part of the inning left tho Cotton
pickers two scores behind and they
did not gain them back. Chalmers
Graham and Slick Kobbins pitched for
the J. C. boys and Kdd Nowell and
Coach pitched for the opposing team
The game was played during one of
the worst sandstorms of the year and
as the wind was in the batters favor,
several home runs were knocked by
both teams. Oriana will return the
game soon.
The Cotton-pickers played their see
ond game hist Thursday afternoon
with Aspermont team on their home
ground. On f;rst inning J. C. boys
ran in three scores and they, stayed
three scors in the lead throughout the
game. With Noel McEwen in the
pitchers box the boys were confident
of victory from the beginning. Dur-
ing the last part of the game Asper-
mont put in several "pinch hitters"
who were mostly high school boys
but no gain was made by the change
Score was I to 7.
Quite a few made the statement
that Noel won the game, but that is
an error. We admit that Noel filled
the most important position on tho
diamond and that he filled it to the
salisXation of all. but \w. deny that
he won the game. Pete McKwen
threw a runner out aft homo bate
from left field, Chalmers Graham
made two double outa without assist-
ance at second base,Buck Dickereon
soon convinced the boy# that the Cot-
ton-pickers had a catcher, it was dif-
ficult to steal a base on. In fact the
entire team did well throughout the
game, and we say, the team won the
game. „
Mr. and Mrs. J. Clement Guest,
Billie and Gladys Marie of Abilene

rents, Mr. and Mrs. W. 1". Guest.

to him.Other-wise don't mention it.
There* have b$en a lot of remedies,
suggested for farm ailments, but so
far none have panned out. Out of it
all, one fact remains: one man pur-
chasing a cotton shirt can do more
good for the cotton farmers tliiyi ten
thousand talkers about it.

Apparently h futoine wits sent upon
Canaan soon after Ahram entered It.
Because of this fiiiuine. he went Into
Egypt. Doubtless the famine was sent
because of the wirUetlness of the ,
Canaunites, but It. was so timed as to
develop the graces of Abmiu's heart.
He needed to he taught the fact of his

God's power and faithfulness; It j
would have been far belter for him to
have remained in Canaan with its 1
