FROM a FORMER CITIZEN OF MO
Editor Marshall Republican,
Dear Sir:

Editor Marshall Republican.
Dear Sir:
Well, a new year has begun and |
am reminded that IL Is time for me to
renew my subscription to your paper
or You may be dropping my name
from your list and I don't want that
done for its weekly visit is like meet
iEg an old friend.
| have been living here In Texas
more than seven years now and am
the first settler, still have n warm
place In my heart for old Missouri and
my old friends there, but don't think
| am ready to leave this delightful
winter climate to wade through snow
and mud up north.
The lowest temperature so far this
winter has been 81 degrees above
zero and that for only a short time In
the early morning. There was no
frost until Christmas night and that
didn't kill vegetation and the vines
are trailing over my front porch like
summer.
Our summers are long and hot and
yet the highest record for the past
summer was only 104'. 1t is such q
dry heat and we are sure of a cool
gulf breeze every night so we can rest
we'll and so 1t is not hard to stand the
days heat.
Our main crop is cotton, but we
raise our feed stuff for stock-all this
without irrigation. On the irrigated
farms along the Neuces river they
raise Bermuda, onions, cabbage, fine
watermelons and sweet potatoes.
After all this is a good place to live
Enclosed you will find $1,00 to re-
new my subscription for 1914.
Yours truly,
LOUIS ROsCHER.

We can't help observing from day
to day three families of orphaned
children, mostly girls, In Il city,
who are among our prettiest and bril-
ghtest children. When we see these
young girls growing into beautiful
womanhood and realize what a small
chance they have in this life with the
ever watchful young rascals who are
able to wear good clothes and have Il
smooth tongue, we cant help but feel
that some of our wealthy people are
not doing their duty. What chance
for some OF our childless couple to
assume charge of n of these girls,
see that she Is dressed and educated
properly and instructed in the ways
of this world. The reward would be
delayed a few years probably but
when they once saw their wards pre-
siding over a christian home they GER
tainly would not ask what II cost.

Is the problem OF transportation. ON
an average this represents at present,
on a guess, about 20 per cent Of the
values Of all necessities and luNuries.

machinery. clothing, etc, from the
cities. while the city dweller gets his
foods, etc, from the country and
practically every thing produced now

I've often wondered, for the nonce
What people do when they ensconce.
I've sat on sofas and on chairs,
On davenports, and on stairs,
On hammocks and piazza swings,
On ruined thrones of ancient kings,
But whether upon this or that,
I've simply, solely, plainly sat.
And ere I'm laid upon the shelf,
Pm anxious to ensconce myself.
It's often done in story books
Mostly in editions de luxe,
Where ladies' of patrician mien,
Attried in robes of slken sheen,
Ensconce themselves on divans rich,
Behind the arras-in niche
Cor some such place at any rate,
Pm not sure l have it straighD-
And when they are ensconced, they
meet
Some great adventure-direo or sweet
OF course, / count such things as
naught,
Twas but passing, idle thought,
But I'd ensconce, just once, to see
What then would happen unto me!

EXAMINATION DAY.

Cramming and jamming and studying

And taking down notes on scratch pa

The second exam is almost here,
And the third one will come at the
end of the year,
Each one is nervous and somewhat
excited
But after the test We'll all be delight

OF course We have to sit up late
hard to meet our fate.
The school room is quiet as queit can
be.
And never a stray glance does any
one see.
Getting ready for examination is any
thing but play,
And you should see us hustle on that
important day.

WHAT ABOUT TEXAS
INVADING MEXICO?
SOME FRESH CORRESPONDENT
PROBLEM AGiTATES CAPITOL.

What could we do" walls a Sen
ator, who is not named but is identi'
fed by Henry Allen of the Kansas
City Star as a member OF the Foreign
Relations Committee, ''if adventurous
Texas hote-headed and brave, combin-
ed with landseekers, homeseekers,
gamblers in the game of war, men of
desperate fortunes and others seeking
adventure, should organize, as appear
ances now indicate they may attempt
to do, and invade the northern states
OF Mexico? What could we do about
it?"
The item occupies a prominent first
page column in the Kansas City Star
of Sunday. 1t is prefaced by an eX-
planation that a new cause of worry
has come into the Mexican situation.
Mr.. Allen has discovered this cause of
worry and finds that it is agitating
Washington official circles.
1t is not for a peaceaDle and peace
loving Texan to ridicule the worry. He
also should worry if Texas is going to
break forth and fight Mexico again.
Mr.. Allen-who IS newspaper editor
in Wichita, Kan, by the way, who is
doing a bit of Washington correspond
ing as sort of relaxation from the
grind of editing and being leader in
the ranks of the progressive political
party of the Sunhower state-says
that Texas is dreaming again. The bur
den of her present nightmare is al
legged to be sort of reverie over the
Alamo and Goliad. Mr.. Allen init
mates that it is a retrospection in a
psychological sense Of the days when
Texas carved the Lone Star State out
of the Mexican wilderness and then
took it away from Mexico.
