By C. M.Charles
Sorry we had no news
column in last wegks Adver
tiser but we were on the sick
list, and no one called in any
news. To put it simply we did
not feel up to getting out and
gathering the news. Will try to
be on the alert more in the
future,
The Ladies Auxiliary and
Fire Department of L.B.A. are
inviting all members and their
families to meet at noon on July
4th in the Lake Bastrop Acres
Park for a picnic lunch and have
a social gathering to renew
aquaintances. Bring a basket
lunch for your family and the
food will all be spread on picnic
tables. This has become a
tradition for this get-together
each year and every one looks
forward to having a big crowd.
Y'all Come!
Cliff and Lee Leverett spent
the weekend in L.B.A. at their
place, but they had to return to
Channel View on Sunday. Each
time they come to L.B.A. they
get a little more accomplished
on the construction of the house
they are building. They now
have the air conditioning in.
Mr. and Mrs. Bill Crawford
also spent the past weekend in
L.B.A. at their place. They
returned to Houston on
Sunday, she had to get back on
the job. She has not retired yet
but we are ail looking forward
to the time that she will and
they can be here to stay.

BLUEBONNET AREA
BY JO MILLER
Grady Charles had been saving
up their catches of fish for quite
some time for this feed and we
had a great amount ready to go.
The Krings. Summers, Schultz,
Moores. V. Tucks and Weiss
families were all with us and we
had fun eating on the patio.
We attended the wedd. ig of
Lisa Champie and David
Turner on Saturday afternoon
at 4:00 p.m. They were married
in a double ring ceremony at
the Calvary Baptist Church.
This was a beautiful wedding
and especially impressive to
those of us who live in L.B.A. as
Lisa has been an outstanding
young lady in our community.
She was beautiful in a floor
length gown with a chapel
length train, full length sleeves
and bodice of Chantilly lace.
The gown was made of Peau de
Soie the hat was of the same
material with an illusion shaped
veil attached to a Juliet style.
The bridesmaids wore blue
chiffon and wide brim hats with
flowers to match their dresses.
The maid of honor wore a pale-
blue and the matron of honor
was dressed in Orchid. The
bride's mother was dressed in a
floor length dress of pale blue
with lace full length sleeves,
the groom's mother in pale
yellow floor length dress. The
groom was very handsome
dressed in white. Our Cong-rat
ulations to David and Lisa.
It may be possible to iive a
little cheaper, but not happier,
if your wife is on a diet.
Happiness is complicated —
it's doing just as we Uke, but
in liking what we do.
The Blue bonnet Volunteer
Fire Department will meet
Monday, July 7, 7:30 p.m. at the
Miller's "Fire Barn", training
sessions will be started after a
short business meeting. All
men of this area should make an
effort to attend, as one never
knows where the next fire will
be.
The Ladies Auxiliary of the
Bluebonnet Volunteer Fire
Department will meet Monday,
July 14, 7:30 p.m. at the park in
the Bluebonnet Acres Addition.
The training of al! women to
combat fires when the men are
at work is most essential. The
months of July, August and
September have been set aside
for the main purpose of training
sessions, in operating the fire
truck and the equipment by
women.
Last Sunday, June 22, there
were over three hundred
people in attendance at the
dedication service of the
Wyldwood Baptist Church. The
Revival services held his past
week were very well attended,
and with the Lord's blessing
this new congregation will
surely grow. If you haven't a
church home and are of this
denomination, why not attend
their services in this beautiful
house of worship.
Here for the dedication
services were Mrs. Pernie
Northcott of Thrall, mother of
Mrs. Ray Barron and Barbara's
sister and family, Mr. and Mrs.
Ed Carlson and daughter,
Donna, also of Thrall; Barbara's
brother and family, Mr. and

Pinkeye
Problems
In Cattle
Pinkeye is a serious problem
in some beef cattle herds in
Texas during the hot summer
weather. The disease can cause
considerable weight loss and
even the loss of sight.
There is no single cure all for
pinkeye, but there are several
practices which you can follow
to help reduce pinkeye pro-
blems. notes Ronnie Lindsey.
county agent for the Texas
Agricultural Extension Ser
vice.
Clipping pastures before
seedheads develop on grass is
one practice that helps. These
seedheads may irritate the eyes
of the cattle and increase the
chances of pinkeye infection.
Flies spread certain kinds of
pinkeye. Lindsey recommends
repeated spraying of the faces
of cattle with Ciodrin insecti
cide to control face flies. Dust
bags, face wipers and back
rubbers also help in controlling
flies. Locate them near or on
the salt box, on the way to
water, or in shaded loafing
areas.
An adequate amount of
Vitamin A helps keep eyes
healthy. Good pastures gener
ally provide enough Vitamin A.
Where dry weather is turning
pastures brown, supplemen-
tary Vitamin A should be
provided.
Separate animals with pink
eye from the herd and treat
infected eves with an anti
bacterial preparation. Keep
infected animals in a sheltered
area. Covering infected eyes
will protect them from light and
foreign matter and will speed
recovery. A simple patch made
of burlap and held in place with
rubber cement seems to be
effective.
If treatment does not
improve conditions, consult a
veterinarian, suggests Lindsey.
Viral diseases such as IBR may
be the cause of pinkeye. Your
veterinarian can recommend a
vaccination program for con
trolling such diseases.
Studies have shown that,
calves with pinkeye weighed
considerably less at weaning
time and as yearlings when
compared to calves the same
age without pinkeye. Thus,
controlling pinki-ye can pay
with increased profits at
market time, points out
Lindsey.
