Nacogdoches lias voted an in-
creased maintenance tax for her
schools and also at the same time
voted for a bond issue for school
purposes.
Alto is very much tickled over
the prospects of graveled roads.
The San Antonio highway will
receive a lot of gravel and great-
ly improve that artery of com-
merce. It will help bring a lot
of trade from eastern Houston
county.
Cotton has been coming into
Alto at a very lively rate and
over 1800 bales had been receiv-
ed up to Monday evening. It is
estimated that about two-thirds
of the crop is now in.
The lumber business has been
showing a slight improvement
and gives evidence of g row i n g
stonger as time progresses.
While the gains have been s'ight
the demand has been such as to
lead to the belief that in a short
time more mills will be working
and on a fuller schedule.
You might find finer weather
than we have been having in
Cherokee county recently, but
we don't know where you would
go to get it.
In 1916 many people thoughti
no punishment could be too se-
vere for a nation that used poi-
son gas .... In the next war
the population of cities will be
annihilated, men, women, and
children, by such gas attacks as
were undreamed of during the
great war .... Men must
choose between peace and the
downfall of civilization- -Spring-

Mr. Ben F. Pryor has made a
change in his plumbing shop.
He has arranged a better display
of his goods on sale and has fit-
ted up a place where he may
make an adequate display of
tubs, lavatories, etc. His work
room is still ample to care for his
large trade in syrup pans, pipe,
heating supplies and other lines
of goods.

Ladies Auxiliary.
There will be a meeting in the
American Legion Hall Tuesday,
October 18 at 4 p. m. for the pur-
pose of organizing, a Woman Aux-
iliary to th<F American Legion in
Rusk.
All mothers, wives, daughters
and sisters of American Legion
members and mothers, wives,
daughters and sisters of all men
and women who w5re in the serv-
ice of the United States between
April 6, 1917, and November 11,
1918, and died in line of duty or
after honorable discharge and
prior to November 11, 1920, are
eligible for membership in this
organization.
If you desire to become a mem-
ber and your son or brother has
not joined the American Legion
see that he becomes a member so
that you may become a member

We should have organized this
body some time ago but it has
been delayed for various reasons.
RELIABILITY
Is a great asset in any business and the Grocery business
emphasizes that one point in strong measure. It is worth
something to know that when you order goods for your table
you are going to get the best quality obtianable without hav-
ing to inspect every item.
You are safe when you buy your groceries from us. Added
to Reliability we also have Dependability, Service and
Courtesy.
We Appreciate Your Patronage

Arthur W. Smith has been

j has been painted in tobacco

and was 66 years, 6 months
6 days old at the time of his
death. He lived in Tennessee
until 1884 when he came to fa
nola county, Texas, where he re-
sided for a few years and then
; came in 1888 to Cherokee county
| and Rusk where he has . esided
ever since. For the past year he
has been engaged in the grocery
business in company with his
j brother Tom S. Philips. He
leaves two sisters and one broth-
j er; his parents having died many
years ago.
Funeral services were held Sun-
day morning at 10.00 o'clock at
the Cedar Hill cemetery, Rev. .J.
W. Goodwin officiating, and in-
terment made there.
In early life, during scho;>i
days, John Philips took part in
school dialogues and was nick-
named "Ginger" and the nam •
carried thru life. He was genial
and likable and little did we
think three weeks ago as we pass-
ed the store and jollied Ginger
that he would be leaving us so
soon. We can never tell when
the call will come and to be pre-
pared at all times is the only way
to be secure. There always was
| a jolly word and kindly smile and
j Ginger did his bit to spread sun-
! shine along the road he traveled.
1 He is gone from among us now
but we shall always treasure
some of his quaint sayings and
remember with pleasure his in-
fectious smile.
