In any Texas community may be
historic treasures that would bring a
big price from collectors who will .be
watching for rare documents and
relics at the Texas Centennial Expo-
sition at Dallas next summer.
The moat interesting items reflect-
ing life in Texas from first explora-
tion in 1519, through colonizing and
development to 1900 are being assem-
bled for the Expos.tion by Prof. Her-
bert Gambrell, of the historical divi-
sion. Information and full description
of letters or diaries that tell of an
earlier day in Texas; early books or
newspapers, or implements furniture
and particularly clothes showing per-
iod costuming should be sent to Pro-
fessor Gambrell. The Exposition will
it items accepted for display
TAX SURVEY WORK
The thx survey work being super-
vised b j Geo. E. Mayes is progress-,
ing nicely, Mr. Mayes said here Wed-
nesday.
The state and district managers
were here last week and compliment-
ed the work being done in this coun-
ty. In fact, said the state manager,
it is the most systematic work that
I have observed in the state.
Fourteen employees have been at
work here. "We are ready to ga into
the county at any time," Mr. .Mayes
stated.
FLOWERS FOR THE LIVING
We are asking some "space .in the
pages of the Review to make known
the best thatr we can in words to our
dear friends and neighbors for tho
many deeds of kindness shown, and
the visits to us through the many
lonjj days of recent sickness. How
they brought cheerful sunshine into
our hearts which made the long
hours seem shortened. Such deeds as
these will live on in our memory so
long as life lasts here on earth. They
will be a lasting glow of joyful grat-
itude in our poor heart to be so for-
tunate as to possess such kind lov-
ing friends. Makes us feel too, we
are so unworthy for all of such kind-
ness shown.
Words of solicitation in messages
thru the mail poured in on us untU
we felt overwhelmed with feeling at
unworthiness. Dear friends, our dear
Lord and Master taught us " a cup
of cold water given in his name
would be returned"; how—well we
know each and every word was even
more than that. We know God in his
great goodness will reward each and
everyone.
My prayers will always be for rich

At the close of the Texas Centen-
nial Exposition,. November 29, such
items from the historical exhibits as
may be for sale will be called to the
attention of prospective buyers.
Every encouragement is being gi-
ven to the assembling of historical
displays in communities and county
seats. Professor Gambrell said

Carrying a 10.000-lb. cement block from Los Angeles to New York, a lH-ton Chevrolet truck—one of the new
1936 models just introduced—demonstrated that safe driving means economy. Speed limits were observed in every
community, with 35 m.p.h. the maximum on the open road. The 3511.4 miles were completed on two quarts of od
and 308 6 eallons of gasoline, at a cost of 01.6 cents per mile; or one-third of a cent per ton mde. The entire run was
completed without any mechanical failure, repairs, or even a scratched fender. The illustrations show the test truck
and features of the new 1936 models. Coupe type cabs with Solid steel roof, full-floating rear axle, and full-length
water iackets are some of the improvements. In the lower right, Harry Hartz, who drove the cross-continent test,
is seen beside' the 10 000-lb. block. The test was officially observed by the American Automobile Association.

and Vice-President John N. Garner
have been invited to open the Uni-
versity Centennial Exposition and to
participate in the first breaking of
ground for the Texas Memorial Mu-
the seum on the campus of the Universi-
best materials shown in these local ty of Texas on June 7th.
Sheriff V. A. Johnston took Jenks
Yarbrough to the Lubbock County
jail Tuesday. Yarbrough was taken
there to be kept while appeal action
posed here after he had been tried
for the second time on assault with
intent to murder charge. The case
was transferred here on a change of
venue after a Dickens jury had sen-
tenced him to seven years.
The charge grew out of a shooting
early in 1934 at McAdoo of Sheriff
W. B. (Bill) Arthur, who recovered,
only to be slain in October of that
year when Virgil Stalcup and Clar-
ence Brown escaped from Dickens
county jail.
