OUR CREED
**I take no thought of my neighbor's
birth, !
Or the way he makes his prayer;
I grant him a white men's place on
jarth,
If his game is on the square:
If he pJayes straight. Til call him
mate;
If he cheats, I'll drop him flat;
All rank but this is a worn out lie,
For eseh clean man is as good as I.
And a king is no more '.hen that."
Mark Twain once said everyone
talked about Hie weather but never
did anything about it. The Bonehead
Club of Dallas has advanced one
of the soundest plans for controll-

ARTIFICIAL LIMBS
Dallas, Tex July 19.—That Dallas
has become widely known for the de
velopment and manufacture of arti
ficial limbs and braces is an indus-
I
trial development almost as odd as
that Akron, demot« from the sources
of rubber and cotton, should have
become known, everywhere, for its
production of automobile tires.
Out of the studies and experiments
which Dr. D . E. Hedgecock began
nearly forty years ago, in an effort
to develop an artificial limb for his
own use, which would be better than
the heavy awkard appliances of the
early days, has grown the Hedgecock
Artificial Limb & Brace Comapany
which, in Dallas, is manufacturing
limbs and braces of a unique type
that now has come into use over the
whole country.
NEWS, OR PUBLICITY
There are those who have leveled
some criticism at local correspondent
of stajo newspapers and press asso-
ciations because of the fact news
items, comingr from Rusk, were pub-
lished by these organisations which
stated many of the boomers had
left Rusk, and otherwise indicated
the oil boom was not! as boomy as it
was immediately following tho dis-
covery of oil here.
Unfortunately, most of the critics
apparently haven't the proper con-
ception of the purpose and duty of
newspapers and newspaper corres-
pondents. Newspapers and press a?-
sociat.ons are not operated to serve
as publicity agent# fev any given
locality. They are set up to publish
facts, as nearly as facts can be de-
termined.
Any newspaper or newspaper man
taking any pride at all in the profes-
sion is going to publish facts in
which the srenera! public is interested
regardless ov not of whether it is
good or had "publicity."
Any reporter or newspaper make*
mistakes now and then. Far too often
to satisfy the average reporter,, he
makes mistakes in reporting what he
believes to be facts. There* is no one
who regrets a mistake in reporting
more than the reporter making the
mistake.

Their idea is to shoot potatoes in
to the air. This will immediately be
followed by tiring onions into the
ozone. Once in the air the onions
cause the potatoes eyes to water,
which produces rain.
Why couldn't we have thought of
that one.
History clearly proves that any time
a serious situation confronts a peo- pf ^ memhers
pie. leaders arise to lead them to the
promised land. It appears as if the
Dallas Bonehead Club is the chosen
leader in regard to the weather ques
tion. Speaking of the weather, and
who isn't, it seems to us that if Rose
velt were the kind of president he
ought to be he woud have done some
thing about the weather before sail-
ing to Hawaii, or however you spell
their childrens sorid end ever be e-,
rased from their mind.

It is our opinion that if more of |
the "youths of touay give though to'
the effects" that" a life of crime wouTuj
^ave on those who loved them, there
would be less crime today.
Criminals must pay for their crimes ■
but it is sorrowful others must pay
the price too.

organization has almost split up be-
