TEN YEARS OLD TODAY.

The Light enters It's eleventh vol
ume today. For ten years now it has
visited the homes Of waxahachie
citizens six days in the week, never
missing ISSUE, except ON CT ..
mas day. 1t has had It's ups and
downs, of course. All daiIies,
whether published in a large or
small town, experience a period of
financial loss. The Light had this
experience insts early years, but as
it grew older and manifested its abil-
ity to live its resources gradually in
creased until today it is on sound
financial basis and is about as
healthy youngster of its age as can
be found in any town the size of
Waxahachie in the whole country.
During these ten years of strenuous
activity the Light has ever been the
spokesman and champion of the
material and industrial welfare of
Waxahachie. 1t has seen great
changes made in the industrial en-
terprises of the city. Handsome
new business blocks, increased bus
mess capital, cotton mill and two
oil mills erected, the establishment
of the Chautauqua with it's magnif1-
cent buildings and grounds, the To-
cation of Trinity University and the
erection of buildings costing SO, 900.
1t has seen new church buildings go
up, monuments to the religious char
acter of the city; tributes of love TO
the Great Creator and giver of all
good and perfect gifts. Only two
things have been really neglected in
the building of this little city since
the birth of the Light, viz: street
Improvement and the erection of a
suitable home for our public schools
The latter object it hopes to see at
tanned during this year. The OPP
portunity will be offered next Sat
urday to better our school facilities
and the Light feels thatthe vote will
be overwhelmingly favorable to the
issuance of bonds for that purpose.
We indulge the hope that the com
ing years will see even greater pros
perity to our city and people than
the decade just past, and, that the
Light may have its part in the up
building and growth of the city.
Let the watchword be, "a greater,
better and grander Waxaauchie."

Wanted to Plant Corn.

Yesterday morning while Judge
billiard was interrogating the jurors
summoned as special venire in the
Curry case, touching their general
qualifications for serving on tae
jury he found one who had not paid
his poll tax. The judge asked the
attorneys in the case If they knew
any reason why the juror should not
be excused. Judge Templeton ex-
planned that new law had been
passed making il discretionary with
the court whether or not the nom
payment OF poll tax disqualified a
man from jury service. The court
said he didn't know anything about
the law with reference to this mat
ter, but he would not excuse the
juror this time. Two jurors ex-
planned To the court that they were
unable to employ any one to work
for them while away and as they
hadn't planted corn yet would like
to be excused. With the consent
OF the attorneys on each side the
court told them they might be ex-
cused.
