STAYS SILENT-LASTS LONGER
Look at both types of refrigerators. One
uses motor, machinery, moving parts
to make ice and cold. The other—the
famous Servel Gas Refrigerator—oper-
ates with a tiny jet of gas flame. Not a
single moving part to wear or make
noise. So Servel alone stays silent, lasts
longer. Come see the new Gas Refrig-
erator models today.

Joe Russell
war he graduated from Southern
Methodist University and entered
the University of Texas, where
he is today finishing his studies
in the School of Law.
Joe is a member of the First
Methodist Church of Royse City
and is active in the American
Legion. He is now 27 years old.
In announcing his candidacy
for the State Senate Russell sub-
mits the following statement:
"I am not a practiced or pro-
fessional politician. This is the
first time that I have ever
sought a political office. I think
that when a man asks his neigh-
bors to elect him to public of-
fice he should make plain the
things for which he will fight
if elected.
I promise all the people of the
10th District that if you will
give me your vote. I will work
with all my strength for the wel-
fare of this District.

If that dam had been complet-
ed we would have had a lake a-
redy. Tell me that it rained so
hard hereabouts that it bounced
back up high enough to be 2nd
hand rain. "You're a marvel-
ours dancer but for two things—
your feet". It's been whispered
around that you and your hus-
band are not getting along too
well!
Nonesense, we had a few words
and I shot him, but that's as far
as it went. It's sad for a girl to
reach the age where men con-
sider her harmless — But it's
worse for a man to attain the
age where girls consider him
harmless. The honeymoon is over
then the wife starts complaining
about noise her husband makes
getting breakfast. Confucious say:
Wash face in morning. Neck at
night. Screen and doors are all
too too high but not so much
that their utility isn't worth it-
better to keep the pest out than
try to rid them after they've in-
vaded. We have some books—
lots of them with pictures of all
type homes and the floor plan-
come and see them if you want,
the plans may be had. No one
k n o ws all — but reading
helps—we have multipieces of
literature, pamphlets, etc. on
all phases of woodworking, mat-
erials, remodeling, redecoration,
and even some plans for boat
builders—come by and see them.
Paints 7.98 down to -.98—you pay
for what you get — remember
that—it takes two to make a
bargain and only one gets it.
If you're one of those with three
rooms and a path—let us fix
you up with a complete bath-
room set.
All of you are cordially invited
to attend a meeting to be held
in our office on the 10th. This
invitation applies to SETTLERS
of all kinds, old, new, or in-
betweens, but be present with
well filled pocketbooks or check
books. Don't miss this, you may
meet some of your old friends
here.
Everyone accepting this in-
vitation will receive a beau-
genuine autograph of the author,
tiful handwritten receipt with a
genuine autograph of the author.
This will be something you can
show your neighbors, and
hand down to your children
with pride. However, if you're un-
able to attend, your check will
serve as the RSVP and the auto-
graphed receipt will be mailed to
you postage full paid. We may
even decide to give away a hun-
died dollar prize, but we sin-
cerely doubt it.
"Bad debtors pass away—but
old jettlers never die" will be the
pass word.
Soil erosion is the greatest pro-
blem facing the farm population
of this district. Every inch of
Texas £oil that is washed away
to the Gulf of Mexico diminish-
es the wealth of our heritage. I
will do my best to design a sound
and workable State Soil Conser-
vation program for you and for
the children who will farm the
land after you.
We have not been able to at-
tract industry to this district be-
cause of an inadequate water
supply. This has cost us millions
of dollars that will never be re-
paid. The new dams that are
being built in Collin County will
solve this problem in part, but
they are far from enough. Dur-
ing my campaign for the Senate
1 will outlirie a plan that should
insure an adequate water supply
to every citizen ahd every corrl-
tnunity in the 10th District.
Many of the farmers in our
four counties still do not have
hard surface roads to carry their
produce to market. Our old age
pension program is desperately
in need of reorganization and im-
provement. We must make every
effort to constantly and contin-
uously improve our schools.
These are some of the prob-
lems which I will stirve to solve
if you elect me to the office.
I urgently and humbly ask you
for your votes."
