Ice Plant improvements

In order to keep abreast of the
times and to meet the increasing de-
mands made upon the facilities of
the plant of the WaXahachie Ice
Works improvements are just being
completed which caused the expen-
diture of several thousand dollars
Manager w d. Anderson will be
ready in two or three days to begin
supplying ice regularly to the trade
While some new and improved ma
chinery has been installed the most
important change in the plant was
the installation of a new freezing
tank. which increases the daily out
put to thirty-five tons or seventy
thousand pounds The new method
of freezing is what Is known as the
flooded system and it is said to pos
sess many advantages over the old
system. The most important of these
is that the ice freezes quicker and at
a lower temperature. Inside the tank
are a number of suction fans which
keep the brine in circulation all the
time The plant as now equipped Is
said to be the only one of the kind
in the state and is one of the best in

Who Are They


| We all have way Of saying "the.
| say" this or that of some person OF
some thing and accepting it our
selves as authentic when someone
says they say to us.
But we stopped to inquire into
the exact source of the information,
either we would be unable to trace it
back to anyone other than elusive in
dividuals. "Tl ey Say" or We will
find back of it the unkind gossip OF
some enemy.
And just because they say fails
to put the blame of falsehood on
any one persons shoulders it really
is the most dangerous OF statements
and one of the hardest to refute,
So let us beware of believing they
say stories. Let us treat lightly all
gossip introduced by the words "theJ
say" Or if this gossip makes us sus-
al and human that it should at times
al and huma nthat it should at times
let us suspend judgment until we
KNOW. In other words, let us do the
object of "they say" the justice to
investigate until we find someone
who is in a position from actual
knowledge and whom we can trust to
make a positive statement over his
own name as to the truth or falsity
of the they say" story.
The writer has been led to pen
this little lesson in practical fairness
by reading a little book issued by the
Coco-Cola Company of Atlanta, Ga,
entitled THE Truth About Coco-Co-
la" That truly delicious and whole
some beverage has for 50 long been
the subject of they say stories in
which all manner of untrue and det-
rimental things about Coca-Cola
have been circulated that the manu-
facturers have been forced to issue
heir book giving authentic inform -
ton about this beverage, And the in
formation therein contained does not
rest it's case on any they say state
nents. but bases its arguments on
analysis and statements of chemists
and scientists occupying the highest
positions in America.
This is the most interesting book
IA fine study in dignity in refuting
ehoods-and a book of informa-
ton that all should read. You will
find it well worth Your while to
write and ask the Coco-Cola com
pany, Atlanta, Ga, to send you
free copy. CO
