4 Letter From Texas.
Maypearl, Tex, Aug. 90
Dear Editor:

Dear EulUOf:
The newspaper IS
not supposed to publish the
news of church work and Of re.
yival meetings, but ! want to
tell you of the good meetings l
have been allowed to help lead
this summer.
During the summer | have
been in five revivals, one in
Louisiana and the others here in
this country. | have seen 1O3
people take a stand for the LORD,
several backsliders return, and
one young man surrender to
preach.
Last Sunday afternoon we had
the last service in a meeting
| where thirty'tive people were
saved. The meeting was con-
Quoted in schoolhOuse out on
White Rock Mountain six miles
from Maypearl. There are ten
families living on a sixteen hun
dred acre farm out there
Many of these people were nun"
cry for the gospel and were say
led. The man who owns the
place lives twelve miles away IL
a good little city but he WAS at
Maypearl Sunday ni,;.ls ID w.t.
ness the baptism of some OF BIZ
tenants.
There we're twenty CONVEX
sions at Maypearl and the same
mum Der at Auburn, the twt
places where the good people
let me try to serve.
| In one of these meetings
man whose hair is white and j:
pastor of First Church in
little city near here did tn
preaching, and in the other
young fellow who was my room
mate last winter and is paste
OF two country churches. H
pulled off bis coat and rolled hi
, sleeves elbow high and went tt
, work. The Lord blessed bot
of them.
g Tomorrow I go to our Assocls
, ton and then after a few day
back to school at Waco.
i Best wishes to all the goo
k people in Washington Parish.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Heiatz " Explalns.'

Fred ]. Heintz in speech at
San Pedro, undertook to explain |
his vote on the five mile 'Boose
Law" that were referred to in the
columns of this paper some weeks
ago. He claims that the laws
were spurious and that the
state law covered the case with
out these five mile laws. This is
true only in part. We have at
present a law against 'Retailing'
but if the vets should ever get to
be stronger in this parish and the
parish 60 wet then these five mile
laws could and would be enforced
and it was for this reason that
these laws were introduced. The
parish could 60 wet by the vote
of the people, out the sale of
liquor could not be carried on
within five miles of any school
protected by a five mile law. 1t
would require an act of the Legis-
lature repeating these laws, which
would not be very likely to be
done. These laws are solely for
the protection OF tie schools and
the school children, no matter
whether the parish goes wet or
dry. Our friend Helntz knew it,
but in order that he might save
his Near Beer friends in Bogalusa
he didn't want any five mile laws
to go into effect, torN the parish
should 60 wet Franklinton and all
centers having the five mile law
would still DO dry. Mr.. Heintz
didn't explain or try to explain
why he voted against the five
mile Gambling laws, neither did
he explain or try to explain his
position on the Near Beer bust
ness in the House of Representa-
tives or in this parish. There is
no use for him to try to explain
because the people know him and
know how lie has stood for al
these years and they know, too
that he has never been in sym
palhy with our position on the
liquor question. ''Promises' is
one Of the handiest stock-in trade
of a candidate running for Office
They are easy made. The trouble
is we poor mortals have no way
of divining the future course OF
human action except in the ligh1
of the past. We can judge
mans purpose i'll life and deter
mine his fitness for public offc'
only by the record he has made
and the position he has taken OF
public questions, Our friends
position Oh the one importar
question to the people of this par
ish is too we'll known. He can
not change front in 50 short
time.

TRAFFIC PROBLEMS UP
Matter is Discussed at Meeting of
the Board of Safety.

Though winter is near at hand
and with il the subsequent lighter
traffic. plans are already being made
by the board OF safety for the hand
ling of increased traffic next year.
Silent policemen" or posts bearing
the command Turn to the Right"
have been used at various street in
tersectiOns in the past and il is plan
ned to keep this practice up. 1t is
probable that new models will be
purchased TO replace the ones that
have been discarded or damaged.
Some discussion was held at Fridays
needing to the ACCESSIBILITY Of estab-
lishihg safety zones for the use of
persons mounting street cars. This
practice has found favor in many of
the larger cities of the country and
it may be established here. The
matter will be taken up again in the
future meetings.
