"I take no thought oI my neighbor's
birth,
Or the way he makes his prayer;
I grant him a white man's place on
earth,
If his game is on the square:
If he playes straight, I'll call him
mate;
If he cheats, I'll drop him flat;
All rank but this is a worn out lie,
For each clean man is as good as I,
And a king ia no more than that."
AN OMM1SSION
It has rained a mighty good rain
all over East Texas—that's a hint
from the Lord: who always does H'is
part, for you to -plant c< big turnip
patch. And why piant a big turnip
patch? Well, in the first place tur-
nips and greens are mighty good eat-
ing and they usually provide food till
the spring garden comcs in; and in
the sacond place they furnish pot-
licker which is healtnful and condu-
cive to good health, long life and wis-
dom. Then, finally, if you have a big
turnip patch you can give from the
abundance thereof to the support of
the hundreds of jobless, homelcns,
foodless people thai, this section w'lll
be called upon to cate for during this
wfnter. Plant a big turnip patch.
Henry Edwards in Tylei Journal.
Henry Edwards is a good newspa-
per man and one of the best writers
in all Texas. He was "raised" or rear-
ed in East Texas, principally on tur-
nip greens and potlicker. In fact, he's
a plumb phule about them. And know
Sng that he knows his turnip greens
like he does and b unexcelled as a
connoisseur of potlicker, we are just
wondering why he made such a splen
did suggestion in the above editorial
and omitted the hog jowl and corn
pore. There must be- provision made
for these two companions of turnip
greens if one obtains the supreme
joy anticipated from sr.ch a meal, es-
pecially if they are planted for fall
and winter consumption. Don't ever
excite our appetite for turnip greens
and potlicker again, friend Henry,
without providing tuo hog jowl and
corn pone.
Editor A, H, Luker of The (*rape-
land Messenger and the -entertain-
ment committee of the north Houston
County Fair Association of Grape-
land has the editor's thanks for a
complimentary ticket to all three days
of their Fair which is being held on
Thursday, Friday and .Saturday of
this week and we hope sincerely that
many Rusk people will attend this
Fair—which Is one oi the best small
fairs held in the State each year. The
spirit of Editor Luker and his fellow
townsmen is to be congratulated and
here's hoping they will enjoy many
more successful fairs like they have
been holding for the past six yelars.
One thing that has been missing
during the so-called depression is
"trouble borrowers". No one needed
to borrow trouble.
Rusk is a good town and is the
county seat of one of the best coun-
t'ies in the State. It's rew highways
now being hard surfaced and it's
splendid schools makes it a desirable
place in which to live. You can't go
wrong if you cory-.- and make your(
home anywhere in Cherokee county.
With all her faults, the American
government is the best government
that has ever been devised in all the
world and her progress has been phe-
nomlnal. Her sons have dared. They
have done in one and a half centuries
what other countries have failed to
do in all the years that have inter-
vened since the death of Christ. Am-
erica is respected for her courage
and leadership and the ability of her
citizenship to advance ideas with the
times and to build the greatest and
most powerful country in existence.
With all her faults, we say, you can
not beat her.
Mrs. J. F. Vermiliion is home for
a few days from Texarkana where
sho has been with Mr. Vermillion who
is at the R ,R. Hospital, since his ill-
ness. She expects to return to his
bedside in a t&w da^s. He is improv-
ing very slowly. H is many friends
hope that he will soon be strong en-
ough to return to his home.
Last Saturday there was probably
the largest crowd of people in Rusk
there has been this year. No special
attraction—just folks shopping and
selling farm products. When you can
sell as well as buy in a town—!it's a
much more profitable visijt. Bring
your produce and cotton to Rusk,
where local buyers will try to pay
you the very top price at all times.
Mr. and Mrs. R. C Musslewihte
and children of Lufkin ::pent Sunday
with Mrs. Musslewhite'r. Mother Mrs.
F. B. Guinn.
East Texas and Cherokee county
have suffered less through the past
twc/ years of the worlds so-called de-
pression than any other section of the
United States. There are many more
acres of land waiting the occupancy
of good citizens who are tired of try-
ing to get rich and just want a com-
fortable riving where there is peace
and happiness in the pursuit thereof.
Come to East Texas—it has always
been home to the boys who wandered
away and got broke and hungry.

During the next few days many of
Rusk's High School graduates of the
past term of school will go to college
to take up studies in their chosen line
of endeavor and as we sec them go
out to take their next step up the lad-
der of success, we fee! proud of the
fact that from then- mcy be develop-
ed some of Texas outstanding leaders
of the State and Nation's affairs. The
town of Rusk and Cherokee county
have contributed quite a few renown,
ed characters in the years of her his-
toric past—and we shall continue to
contribue leaders ^\ho will reflect
credit to the old home town and coun-
ty. May every blessing abide with
each young man and lady who goes
to college this month.

Why do friends ard neighbors who
must go on living together and deal-
ing with each other forest themselves
in a political campaign and go so far
as to fall out over a big politician who
is after their vote only . Ninety-nine
cases out of every hundred neither
of two men who lall out and quit
speaking to each other over some big
state candidate, could get a five-min-
ute interview of the said candidate
after he was elected, even if the
would-be-interviewer had supported
him 'in the election. And a3 far as the
candidate's personal interest in you
—it's forgotten after the vote is ca3t
in practically every instance. His
memory goes blank anc you feel the
•same way when you make the advance
■toward him.
It don't pay to fall out with your
neighbor and cuss because he dif-
fers with you about politics, for with
in a few weeksjiftcr the election you
may need a favor of hini that the big
candidate you supported would not
have time to confer upon you. re-
gardless of your zealous efforts for
his candidacy.
It pays to keep on good terms with
your neighbor just as much as it
pays to buy everything possible you
need from your home town dealer.
It pays and keeps on paying you big
dividends.
