She was a maid the men all wooed,
Each wished her for his own,
And why, the other maidens sneered,
mystery was alone.
She was cross-eyed, had brick-red hair,
Her form no grace betrayed;
Her taste in dress was something
fierce,
But, oh, the pies she made!
She couldn't for the life of her
Talk in lively strain,
Nor had the power for one short hour
Her guests to entertain.
She nothing knew of world events,
Of books would no thought take,
The theatre got on her nerves
But she could broil a steak!
She had no personality
OF magnetic kind;
No deep affections, mind devout,
No charm did any find
Which would make men thus mad for
her.
And yet the prize she took
From girls with beauty, brains and
style
She was a splendid cook!

had eaten dinner, the young
men who were expected TO come
and do the seining, appeared
and joined in eating their part
Of the fish.
The afternoon was spent in
music and pleasant converse

came and with heavy hearts
they bid Miss Julia adieu, wish

The time has come when
there is a great demand
for Lubbock property.
There is a reason for max
ing this statement. The
reason is people by great
numbers have called at
our Office during the last
ten days and said they
wanted a home in Lub-
book. We have pleased
some of these by selling to
them, and Others we have
pleased by renting them a
home. Get busy and pur-
chase you a home before
the rush. If you think we
can t rent your property
all we ask is that you give
us a trial. Rented four

W0LTERS-SHEPPARD DEBATE
Both Candidates Receive APP
pIause. Sheppard Men Compose
Majority of the Audience

Athens, Tex, June "a. In
the presence of $500 persons
gathered from many points in
East Texas, Hons. Jake VOL
tiers and Morris Sheppard, rival
candidates for the United States
Senate, this afternoon debated
the tariff question. Throughout
the proceedings there vas no
departure from the subject,
except in two instances when the
prohibition issue was referred
to, once directly and once by
imputatlOn.
WOLTERS THE MORE LOGICAL
Being limited for time, both
of the candidates tore through
their speeches like a house ahre
VOTERS. | believe, made the
more logical argument. Shep-
pard had the advantage IN ora
tory and in Quickness at re-
partee. Wolters held to the
simple proposition that raw ma
terials should not be exempted
from the tariff tax as long as
the finished products were pro
tected, and all Of his illustra-
lions pertained to materials and
articles with which his hearers
are familiar Sheppard upon the
contrary, although scoring
heavily at times. got in to some
involved arguments about com
pensatory duties and like rehne-
ments and he talked about anti
mony, bismuth, mica and other
substances with which the
average man has small acquain-
lance and for which he cares
little. When he argued that
cotton has nothing to fear from
wool and paid a glowing tribute
to the great staple of the South
he struck home, and his admirers
cheered.
The Judgment of the average
man as to this debate is IN ac-
cordance with his Senatorial
preferences. AS tor that. with
all due regard for both of the
debaters, / am frank to say that

tor McNealus of Dallas discuss

robber and would wipe it en-
tirely off the face of the earth.
and he says that if this were
done we would get the neces-
slties of life cheaper. That's
straight talk. and | understand

Mr.. Wolters got fine attention,
as was required by Hon. K. +.
Yantis, who introduced him, and
occasionally he was applauded.
The debate today follows
series of challenges made by
Col. VOTERS. During the Hous-
ton convention Mr.. Sheppard
telegraphed him refusing to
agree to a debate and making
reference TO liquor and lucre. "

reward of $3.50 for any man
