THE AWAKENING
It would appear that communities,
like individual*, have their depressed
period*; when the Joy of life in de-
parted for the moment: when the *pir-
It of comradeship, cooperation aud
optimism i* conspicuous by its ab-
sence.
Hut if an individual Is an optim-
ist at heart his peri**!* of depression
are usually brief aud he rcliouuda to
the opportunities, the ri> pouslhllttIes
of life in direct ratio to ids dcriliction
from the path of self and community
duty.
The parallel again holds as to the
community unit, (liven a xroup of
people, the majority of whom are Fep-
tomists at heart, and they respond to
public duty following moments of de-
pression as readily as does the indiv-
idual.
Hereford has Just passed through
one of these periods of depression.
Famous for year* as the home of the
"live ones" and the doers of real com- '
munlty deed*, the city lapsed into a
condition of immou* dlsseude follow-
ing the strain of the war yearn, and
ha* I een gently and persistently j
snoozing for month* paat.
We are overjoyed to be able to an- i
nounee to the world that HerefonF* |

foundation for a Greater Hereford
Country.
The reepoaalbilltlea have been plena#
upon the nhouMer* of neven men.

with grim determination to hlaae a

of Judge W. M. Key for Ansts late Jvatk-e of the Mupreme Court, will Mipport
Judge William Pieraon in the run-off primary agalnat Judge Hawkins, i* « n
talned In the following item from the Man Antonio ftCxpr*** of Friday m< rning:
"Daring the contest Just dosed, I manage*I W. M. Key's campaign for nom-
ination a* Associate Justice of the Mupreme Court. It now appear* that to ha*

I shall vote fur ami support Judge Pieraon liecatua*. aa lietween theae twogeatle-
men. I believe that Judge Pieraon la better qualified and that It la a matter of
genuine public Importance that he be nominated.
"Judge Hawkln* la a man of atrict Integrity ami high character, hut bis
record upon the Supreme Court during hi* seven and one-half yeara of service
there, forcee ma to the couetuaion that, temperamentally and otherwise, he 1*

the utmoHt care, they reflect a situation which, iu my Judgment, render* It im-
perative that Judge Hawkins he anperaeded.
"Judge Plenton 1* a man of equally high character, an eminent lawyer of
wide experience, and for a number of years past has served with credit to him-
self upon the District Court, where be ha* demonstrated hi* ability to transact
