You simply must keep your kid

of Jad Salts from any good drug

committee that was responsible for
the Boys Pig club work in Ellis
county, and that II was a great big
success. He said he could not con-
ceive of anything that pays bigger
returns than pig club work. Just
when his hearers thought he was
going TO claim credit for the Won
derful progress MADE in this work
he said it was we'll known fact that
Farm Demonstration Agent Floyd
had done about 80 per cent of the
work. hence he could well afford to
say the work had been successful.
He urged the organization of Baby
Beef clubs over the county.
1t was said that Mr.. Singleton,
who made the hog awards here Sat
urday, declared he had never seen a
more perfect hog than was judged
here Saturday, despite the fact that
he had been in pig shows all the
way from California to Florida.
With this the committee was au-
thorized to go ahead and perfect the
organization of the baby beef clup.

needed to supply the demand.
The matter of banquet to which
representative people will be asked
was discussed and intructions were
passed to the entertainment commit
tee to provide such meeting.
Announcement was made that an
art exhibit will be held at the city
hall on Thursday for benef.; OF the
public schools.
One Of the most interesting talks
of the day was made by Rev. A. N.
Hall. pastor of the First Baptist
church. who said he would devote
his time to what he considered the
most important work before the
ehamber-that of building new
sanitarium. He declared he believed
such an institution the best invest
ment the city could make. He said
there are two kinds of needs, one
actual and the other imaginary, and
that according to his way of think
ing there was nothing quite so acute
and actual as the need of providing
place for taking care of the sick.
He declared he had seen all kinds
of buildings erected for the care of
animals, crops and the like but new
err in the history of Waxahachie
have the people erected a building
for the purpose of taking care of the
sick. He was of the opinion moth
ing would do so much good toward
building up the town and he declared
it would give the Chamber of Com
MERGE a grip on the heart strings of
the people.
With the appointment of II. N.
Naylor as chairman for the next
meeting adjournment was taken.
