We could get out official rec- ords to prove that summer after summer, Marfa Is about the coolest spot ln Texas—though that still has been hot enough these last few weeks. And we can’t see where there’s enough dust to ruin a voice when the country is all grass land and we’ve heard some fine choirs and vocalists here. Of course there was also the mention of Lanza’s “rare pro- tective talents . . . as a' gold- brick.” Maybe that had some- thing to do with the inability to sing.

C. Poole, former Presidio justice of thc peace scheduled to open here Mon- day morning, was postponed Sun- day on order of Judge Alan Fras- er due to the serious illness in thc family of Hunter Metcalfe, defense attorney. The court ordered thc postpone- ment when Mr. Metcalfe’s pres- ence was necessary in San Anton- io where his mother was critically ill. A special venire of 70 jurymen had been called and all arrange- ments made to open the trial Monday morning. Whether the case will now lay over until the next regular jury term, probably In January, or whether a special term may be called is still un- certain. There is. It is understood, tall; of a special term next month, hut there is no indication as to whether the Poole case might be heard at that time even if such a term is convened. The murder count was returned by a grand jury here as the result of the killing of Jack Jennings. 19, of Presidio, in a scuffle with Poole and Deputy Sheriff Mack Tanvater.

Bob LeRoy’s Carriger team downed Baker’s last Thursday, 6 to 2 , and then moved ahead in the standings by defeating the Orphans Friday, 9-1. Valentine’s strong team Is slow- ly moving into contention with the leaders, and went farther ahead this week with a victory Saturday evening, 13-4, over the Keith Insurance team, and an- other Tuesday evening, 11-2, over the Baker contingent. Baker’s defeated Keith Monday evening 10-3. The schedule closes this week, and it has been announced that the hapless Orphans, for whom no sponsor was found at the start of the season, have now disbanded after losing all but one of their games, and will forfeit the-few remaining contests.

Teachers Added to Blackwell Staff For Coming Year Two teachers were added to the Blapkwell staff, bringing that group near completion for the coming school year, but one posi tion on the high school staff, thought filled last week, is still open, according to J. E. Gregg, superintendent of schools. Mr. Gregg announced that this year the Blackwell junior school would be departmentalized in the seventh, eighth and ninth grades, teachers handling certain subjects for all grades, rather than all subjects for a certain grade. Added this week to the Black- well staff was Hector Arce, Marfa high school graduate and former basketball and football star under both Coach L. B. Martin and Coach Boren Hunter. He is also to handle some of the coaching work at Blackwell. He has a BBA degree from Sul Ross and has added credits in education while working at the City Drug com- pany here. He will teach in the upper grade departmental work. Another new Blackwell teacher will be Mrs. Evelyn Bentley of Marfa, a Sul Ross graduate, who has had considerable experience as a .substitute teacher In the Marfa schools. She will handle fourth' grade. Mrs. Lee Etta Roan of Com- merce, Texas, signed last week to handle the high school position of librarian and journalism teach- er, sent in a resignation this week, leaving that spot still to be filled in the high school faculty. Mrs. Lucy Franco, long-time Shafter teacher, has left that community and,will enter the Marfa Independent school system as a teacher at Redford, taking the place held last year there by her daughter, Miss Delfina R. Franco. Marfa schools will open Sep- tember 4. for Herschel Ford, will deliver the Preachers representing four denominations will alternate in the pulpit this coming week at Skillman grove.

Joekel of the Austin Theological seminary, who has repre- sented the Presbyterians for many years at the meetings; and lower right, J. Chess Lovern of Laurel Heights Methodist church in San Antonio, chosen the Methodist speaker this year. Killam Oil Test On Means Ranch Ordered Plugged W. O. Killam, independent Lar- edo oil operator, who sponsored the test well on the Cole Means property near Valentine, last week ordered the closing and plugging of that hole. The rig, brought in from Odes- sa by Baird and Tullis, drilling contractors, had reached a depth of 8,370 feet and was unable to go deeper. Mr. Killam had first contracted for a 7 , 000-foot well, and when no pay sand was reached at that depth, authorized drillers to go on down to 10,000 feet, but the rig was unable to reach that depth. The well was’ plugged lightly last weekend, and William Powell, associate of Mr. Killam, who has been in charge of the work here, indicated that an attempt might be made to pursuade one of the major oil companies to take over the hole, bring in a heavier rig, and drill to a depth that would give a thorough test of the area. Lions to Sponsor Dorothy Jones as Queen Candidate RECEIVES HEAD INJURY Nick J. Thee, while loading a horse in a trailer in Alpine Wed- nesday, suffered a painful head injury when kicked by the animal. The injury required several stitch- es but he was able to be at work this morning. Dorothy Fern Jones, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Evan B. Jones, is the Marfa Lions club’s candi- date for the Biggs Air Force base queen in the "Miss Air Force Aid Society” contest. The local service club last week agreed to sponsor a candidate in that race and named Dorothy to compete against some 14 other contestants throughout the South- west. A week’s expense-paid trip to Mexico City and some $2,000 in merchandise prizes will go to the winner, who will be crowned at the Biggs Air Force base in cere- monies September 3. The winner will be the girl who, with her sponsors, sells the greatest num- ber of memberships in the Air Force Aid Society. The society’s funds go to aid servicemen and their families in time of emerg- ency. Dorothy was introduced at a dinner held at the officers’ club at Biggs field Saturday evening which *was also attended by Mr. and Mrs. Evan B. Jones, Mr. and Mrs. Johni J. Mathews, Mr. and Mrs. E. K. Beanland and Mr. and Mrs. Walter Gamett. Mr. Jones heads the Lions club and the other three men are members of the committee on the queen contest. Speakers Chosen to Represent Christian, Baptist, Methodist and Presbyterian Churches — Dr. Ford of El Paso to Open thc Services The sixty-sccond annual campmeeting at Skillman grove will open next Tuesday, August 14, and continue through August 20 , with every indication pointing to new records in attendance. Principal speakers representing the four denominations taking part in the meetings are: Dr. L. D. Anderson, pastor of the First Christian church of Fort W orth. Dr. Anderson is dean of the speakers and has served many years at the Bloys meetings. He is also superintend- ent of the campmeeting association. Dr. S. L. Joekel of the Austin Theological seminary, who has represented the Presbyterians at the services for several years. Dr. Charles F. Taylor, one of the speakers of Spiritual Victory Crusades,” with headquarters in Pasadena, Calif.. St. Louis and Boston, who will represent the Baptists. Dr. Taylor holds degrees from Hardin-Simmons and Baylor universities. It is his first year at Bloys. He is appearing at Falls Creek en- campment at Davis. Okla., this week and will not be here the opening of the Bloys encampment. Dr. W . pastor of the First Baptist church in El Paso opening address there in his place. The Rev. J. Chess Lovern of the Laurel Heights Methodist church in San Antonio, representing the Methodists. It is the first year at the meetings for Mr. Lovern, who is reported to be a forceful speaker. Holding degrees from Southern Methodist university, he has served in several Rio Grande valley cities, as well as three years at San Angelo and three in San Antonio. The youth minister this year will be the Rev. Jordan Groom, pastor of the first Methodist church of Lamesa, and assisting with the youth work as she has for many years, will be Mrs. A. E.

Donald Helms; secretary, Sargie Jones; treasurer, Joan W urgler; and historian, Rueben Evans; with Hugh Howard, John Miller, Jim W urgler, Alice Jones, Joann DeVolin and Bob Joekel in various committee posts. Last year a maximum attendance of some 2500 was reached on thc Sunday during the meetings, and arrangements are being made to care for as many this year. y There are many cottages on the grounds, privately’ owned, which will house a large part of the many visitors expected, and camping space for trailers and tents will care for the others. Stemming from the tradition of the old days when the var- ious ranch outfits operated their chuck wagons at the grounds for men of their crews and for neighbors and friends attending the services, campers and visitors now are invited to eat at any of several big camp kitchens established on the grounds and each operated by one or more of the old-time ranch families of the area. In addition to preaching services at 11:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. daily during thc week of the campmeetings, there will be adult Bible study in the mornings, a youth program throughout the day, and in other respects a full program. Dr, Raymond C. Burns of Marfa is assistant superintendent. The original Crrwboy Campmeeting was organized by Dr. W . B. Bloys. Presbyterian missionary of Fort Davis, and the first meeting was held in 1890 at Skillman grove near Fort Davis. Annual sessions have been held since and J. W . M errill of Fort Davis, who has attended each of the meetings since that date, is now president of the campmeeting association.

IT'S p u b l ic it y —EVEN IF NO T GOOD

It’s publicity— of a sort Last week’s Time, in a story

of Mario Lariza, singer, tells that during the war Lanza was sent by the army ‘‘ to the dusty heat o f an air base in Marfa” and that given a chance to try out for a Special Services show, “ Lanza’s throat was so raw with Texas dust he could not sing.”

Looks as if Tim e merely cop­ied a story which appeared some time back In Colliers on the same subject.

W e could get out official rec­ords to prove that summer after summer, Marfa Is about the coolest spot ln Texas— though that still has been hot enough these last few weeks. And we can’t see where there’s enough dust to ruin a voice when the country is all grass land and w e’ve heard some fine choirs and vocalists here.

O f course there was also the mention o f Lanza’s “ rare pro­tective talents . . . as a' gold- brick.” Maybe that had some­thing to do with the inability to sing.

G EM NOTESDIAMONDS— “ BARGAINS”

Have you ever wondered about those big diamond “ Sales” and “ Bargains” you frequently see splashed throughout your big- city papers?

“ How can they cut prices so much? H ow can they o ffer such savings? How can they sell the diamonds so cheaply?” These are the questions you ask your­self. You might ask yourself one other pertinent question, “ Do they take me for a chump?"

No, not always. A few of the sales are based on legitimate

.economic changes, but far too often they are working on the "chump” angle. Diamonds are one o f the few unchanging things In this world; they are not seasonal items or perishables or fast style changer*. There’* really not much excuse for a diamond price reduction iih Im s an economic recession has set in or the diamonds were Just too high priced to begin with.

You will note that the adi play up two things— the price and the size of the diamond. Rarely do they emphasize the three C’«— color, clarity and cut — that really should be the most important factor*. Two of these C 'i are very d if* lc i'J tfo r the customer to dettjt.

Next week we will give you the word on these two C’* and explain how some of the .store* can get by with the so-called “ bargain” *ales.

F o r A l l Y o u r H o m e F u r n i s h i n g sBy Ertta Haley

FEW homes, no m atte r how sim­ple. are "s o a p-and-w a t e r"

houses. There was a tim e when everything could be eleaned with just soap and water, but now a variety of finishes, cr.d the desire lo give furnishings some of their “brand new look" make it essen­tial to resort to varied cleaning methods.

Take a look around the house, es­pecially such items as have been r» nse for a few months or years. Pecs thc furniture show rings and scratches? Have Venetian blinds lost their gloss? Are m irrors and windows shiny, without much ef­fort?

These are but a few of the Items in the house, but all of them as well as many others require some spe­cial attention to keep them from looking well worn or much abused.

Professional reflnlshlng and a t­tention Is no longer necessary for many things about the bouse, as special cleaners are available to the hom em aker which not only do the job soap and w ater once did, but give the furnishings a finish very much like they had when new. They're tim e and work savers, too. and as such are economical.Clean or Polish Painted And Other Surfaces

Painted surfaces m ay gather ■rease, dirt, smoke or smudge. When hard scrubbing methods are ■sed. the d irt and grease will come etf, but the walls m ay lose color and certainly their luster which m akes then even m ore susceptible to d irt and other accumulations.

Sinks and porcelain surfaces, as veil as tiles respond to cleansing x’ith widely-known powders. These will remove most common stains, ind give the sink, particularly, a pleasing odor, as well as a nice finish. If sinks and porcelain sur­faces are badly stained, use a household bleach diluted with water, tt may be necessary to stopper the jink and let the bleach stand for •some length of time to get the stain •ut.

There are porcelain and enamel folishes, too, for sinks and similar surfaces which wiii add luster, espe-

tially when they are well worn. Pour the polish on a cleaning cloth and apply to the surface. When al­most dry, rub off with another cloth snd polish with a soft cloth.

A fairly high gloss makes surfaces Ik e this look new, and also helps an preventing stains and scratches 1» m ar the finish.tfean Venetian BUnds • y New Methods

If you have Venetian blinds tn yoo* home, you know they take a lot t4 dusting. In place of the old- fashioned dust cloth, get a brush •specially designed for the purpose. Sereral different kind: arc avail­able. all designed to dust several slats at one time.

Blinds like this easily lose their shine and develop film, especially when they have been subjected to harsh and frequent cleaning. Their new look, their glossy finish and col­or can be restored with cleansers designed for the purpose, by apply­ing a liquid to the slats with a soft cloth. If desired, you m ay apply w e ot tbe liquid waxes to the slats Is give a nice, glossy finish.

Applicators (or Venetian blind cleansers a re usually two rubber. Wooges. anchored U; s ' spring * an d le - .% sa - do both side* of A s s lits in one sweep.

Venetian blind tapes do not usual­ly w ear out before the blinds, but they m ay become Imbedded with sol] from the a ir as well ss stained by cleaners used on the slats. Use a fabric cleaner on the tapes.Clean Windows, M irrors With Less Effort

Since place mats sre such • smsrt dining accessary these days, this hostess fives ber table a glass-Uke protective coating with a new, non-oiiy pol­ish that contains silicone. This gives the woodwork s dry glow and protects the mahogany sur­face against spills and stains from food and liquids.

scratch-proof, use a powder for this purpose, sprinkled onto a wet cloth and apply. When dry, wipe off with a d ry cloth.

P repared cleaners m ay be applied with a cloth or a sprayer. Let them dry, then wipe ofiS making certain tha t no cleaner la left on the win­dow. and rubbing the surface com­pletely dry.B ria r Beauty Back To Furniture

F u r n i t u r e which has been scratched can* be treated In several different ways. You m ay use a pol­ish which tints as it shines and pol­ishes, thereby concealing t h e scratches very easily. Another way Is to use furniture wax which comes in finishes such as mahogany, neu­tral. m aple or walnut. This, too, will cover m ost scratches as you apply the wax for polishing pur­poses.

Surfaces such as coffee tables, desks and dining tables which get a lot of hard w ear m ay be treated with a polish that leaves a hard glossy finish. This finish enables t h e furniture to resist stains, scratches and finger m arks.

Cream type waxes are good on many types of softly finished woods. They give a soft luster and their wax coating will protect the wood.

If you’re planning to re-finish fur­niture, old wax bases as well as paint and varnish can be removed with a preparation ’vhich does the job m ore easily than sanding or scraping.

Rings or m arks left on furniture by w ater, perfume or heat can be eliminated with the use of a recon­ditioner. Some preparations are designed to be rubbed into the wood, while others remove the sur­face stains while also giving a pol­ish.

To m ake dusting easier, there are several different types of chem­ically treated cloths available. These will give furniture a polish and by virtue of this luster, they keep the furniture resistant to dust, at least as much as Is possible.Severs! Methods are Available For Upholstery, Bugs

Badly soiled rugs and upholstery need professional attention, but there are many occasions when the soil is new or of such an amount that home cleaning will benefit it. Several different t.,pes a re availa­ble. Including dry cleaning, foam or dry suds.

F o r lightly soiled rugs, a pow­der tha t Is sprinkled and brushed into the rug, left standing and then vacuumed, will freshen and bright­en.

Foam cleaners are effective for both rugs and upholstery. P repare w hatever Is to be cleaned by sweep­ing o r brushing, and rem oving all loose d irt. Pour the foam cleaner into a basin and squeeze a sponge in and out of it until the liquid foams. Apply the loam in a circular motion with a sponge to fabric or rug and work through until the foam disappears.

When using foam cleaner, work on a sm all area a t one tim e, and ln that way cover the whole rug or up­holstered piece. Smooth the nap ot the m ateria l a fter finishing clean­ing.Prevent Damage By Rust, Mildew

We make a great mistake if we consider them merely as we would a pol­itical group—they are in fact attempting to build up an army of traitors within this nation."

Tells of Experiences Mr. Kichardson went on to back lip his assertions with facts from the files of his Pinkerton days.He told how one of their under cover men. accepted by commun­ists as a member, but working /or Pinkerton's and the FBI. fin­ally was unmasked by leaks to the Communists from the Corpus Christi office of naval intelligence itself. "We uncovered two WACs and others during the war work­ing for the Communists.” the speaker said."Houston membership in the Communist party includes at least two well known lawyers, some business men and several Uni­versity of Texas graduates. They have worked principally to fo­ment labor trouble and build sab­otage units to offset the work of soldiers at the front. After World War II the party in Houston was divided into S separate ceils, and is-prepared to go underground in case of war with Russia or the party being outlawed."

How to Meet Inroads Mr. Kichardson declared that if

ihis nation would fight half as hard to clear itself of that can­cerous Communist growth as the j Jr.. of Houston on the electric party does to infiltrate into our j organ which was a gift last year government and industry, we'd ; to thc assembly from Sam Means, got rid of them. He asserted that; pioneer director of the encamp- manv cases readied at consider-. ment.

W. P. Jaeger, Patrol chief, said, that apparently the firearms in-1 eluded were merely incidental to the general cargo—that all iiuli-' cations were that an attempt was being made to get the two truck loads of general merchandise across the nver without duty in order to start a store.

Canned foods, clothing and household furnishings were in­cluded in the confiscated merch­andise.

Watch for RS Day!

protect your child against whooping cough

World-Wide in its distribution, whooping cough is endemic in large cities, becoming epidemic on a large scale every two to four year3. The seriousness of pertussis, especially in young children, is evi­denced by the mortality rate—about 26 percent in infants less than one year old.

Children should be vaccinated during the first year of life. Do not wait for an epidemic. It takes several weeks after vaccination for the body to pro­duce antibodies. Ask your physician now about pro­tection from whooping cough for your baby.

We carry fresh stocks of vaccine under refrigera­tion at all times.
