The Atlanta Journal has recently recorded the es-
Enlistment of several canning plants in Georgia
towns It well says however that there not nearly
enough factories in Georgia any part of the South
and that their number should be multiplied many times
over.
What the Journal says of Georgia In the following
will apply with equal force to Texas

practiea and timely views this subject;

1t is time that the people of Texas, those IN tn,
towns and those on the farms should bestir them
selves in this matter. few canning factories have
been erected in this State and when properly conduct

being the case considerable activity may looked for
in the search for oil producers will be assured of
freedom from the danger OF being squeezed by the
combination which heretofore controlled the mar.

good thing in sight.
Immediate benefits from another point of view will
also follow from the organization on Mr. Kirpys cor.
porations as they contemplate The expenditure OF
about $40 000000 in the construction Of pipe lines and
tanks and the acquisition and erection OF appliances

TAMPERING WITH TRlFI I

MISSED.
BY the cliffs along the Eric
OFT we walked when day was DER.
When the sun, all flushed and wear,
Sank TO rest beyond the shore;
And we heard night voices waking
And we heard the breezes sigh;
All my heart was near TO breaking
As we walked there, she and l.
Oh the moon in all its glory
Trailed its splendor DER the sky.
And told the old, old story
As we watched the daylight die;
Md her hands were both in my hands
And her lips were my own
As we stood beneath the highlands
On the beach there, all alone.
And ! felt the pressure given,
And fell beneath her spell
Told her how my life were heaven
With her, and without her, HE'LL
And | whispered while we tarried
There beside the rising tide
That in June we would be married.
That | would not be denied
But she laughed and cried little
Said ii she had ever guessed
That my heart had been so brittle
AS my vows had just expressed
She would never, ne'er have taken
Time to Rirt at all with me,
Or my passion to awaken
AS we walked beside the sea
Then kissed her, kissed the maiden.
And clssped her to my breast
Though my heart was heavy laden
With weight | think she guessed
] was everybody's debtor
had debts to burn, or more
She had scads | can't forget her
Though we parted on the shore.
