Claude Orr, business man Of
Grassland, has definitely decided
to establish a water plant in Ha.
eel and has placed his order fol
the necessary machinery. Work
on sinking well for the water
supply will begin in the next
few days.
This is the best piece of in
formation The News was ever
able to give to the public, be-
cause Hazel does need a water
system and has for sometime
past.
The water plant will be loca-
ted on Main street, on the site
now occupied by A. E. Roane's
garage and repair shop. The
building will be enlarged. The
city council held a call meeting
Monday night and guaranteed to
Mr.. Orr franchise free of cost,
and will ordain that the plant be
free from taxation for five years.

In Memory Of Miss Mary ]. Lewis.

In Memory Of Miss Mary ]. Lewis.
To US she was a shining star,
In Heaven she is a gem
We prayed for her to stay with US,
Butshe answered the call of Him.
He wanted her to come up high
To that Home above the sky,
Where rain and sorrow never
come,
And they never die.
She has been parted from her
Loved ones for many a year,
But she crossed the river to join
them
Without a single fear.
She has gone to live with them
forever
Never more to part
But she has left her loved ones
here
With broken, bleeding hearts.
Sleep on dear friend until we
come
To meet you in that dear land.
And we will join in singing
praises
In one happy band.
For friendship is a golden chain
That binds our hearts together
And if some one does not break
that chain
Our love will live forever.

Every honest man who runs
for Office is a candidate for
trouble, for fruits of political
victory turn to ashes on the lips.
To me there is nothing in this
world SO pathetic as candidate.
He is like a mariner without a
compass drifting on the tempest
tossed waves of uncertainty be-
tween the smiling cliffs Of hope
and the frowning crags of fear.
He is a walking petition and a
living prayer; he is the black
horse of public sentiment; he is
the dromedary of politics. And
if he reaches the goal of his am
bition he will soon feel the beak
of the vulture in his heart and
the fang of the serpent in his
soul. | am no longer a candi-
date"

lament of Bob Taylor, he after
