VOTE FOR
R. S. STERLING
For Governor
He stands on his record as governor,
gives an accounting of his stewardship
during the past two years and outlines the
business-like, sensibte program he hopes to
carry out during his second term.
As governor during the two darkest
years in the recent history of the state, he
has made a noteworthy record. The budget
of the state government has been balanced
at a time when even the national govern-
ment is having its financial difficulties.
The opposition still talks about deficits
running into the millions, but Governor
Sterling, in declaring that the budget has
been balanced, quotes the state auditor
who has the official figures before him.
Those who oppose Governor Sterling
know that his record in this regard is
winning him strong support throughout
the state, so they shout about prospective
deficits which do not appear on the ledger
sheets at Austin*
Among the governor's numerous ac-
complishments is his reorganization of the
prison system to place it on a business-like
basis. With the industrial unit ofthecentral
state prison farm near Sugar Land in
operation, an important step has been taken
toward the ultimate goal of making the
prisons self supporting; Eventually the
packing and canning plant of the central
state farm will provide food not only for
the prison system but for state eleemosynary
institutions as well.
The reforms placed in effect in the
prisons during the Sterling administration
will pay big dividends to the people in the
years to come.
These are but a few of many important
accomplishments of Governor Sterling*

the Great Commission.
Let us remember that our revival
begins the second Sunday in August.
Th'i pastor teaves Sunday to be with
Brother Gayer at Frankston for a
two weeks meeting.
It is hoped that the last day of the

ized by the co-operation of the Baptist
people. Brother Neal has been doing
some good preaching. Let us show
our appreciation by attending both
services Sunday.
The pulpit witl be supplied the next
two Sundays the pastor is away. Let
every one feel his individual respon-
sibility in the Sunday School and B.
