TEXAS TOWN TO BE

Waxahachie Long Has Suffered On
Sunday Under Blue Laws.

For the last decade this city has been
subject to the strict enforcement Of

In county administration in prospect il
is rumored. unofficially. that a respite
Is not impossible.
The blue laws provide among innumer-
able other things, that nothing Of any
nature shall be sold on Sunday that Is
not absolutely necessary. About the
only thing construed by the courts as
being in that class is milk.
So men. women. and children have
been obliged to confine their SUNDAY
appetites to milk products. No cigars.
cigarettes. candy. fruit or soft drinks
unless they contain milk.
The evasioRs of this law have been
productive of many amusing incidents.
Soft drink shops served pop. lemona6 6e,
all sorts OF things by mixing the concoc-
tions with a spoon previously dipped In
milk. Cigars and packages OF cigarettes
were made legal by baptizing them with
a few drops Of the lacteal fluid.

In Loving Memory of
 Howard ' thompson

Howard was born Nov lG, 1914 Was here almost two years to gladden. the home, now so sad. He was bright, sweet child; was never sick enough to cali a physician until Lis last illness. His short life was happy. He had ev- cry care and attention he needed, but alas when taken sick al. the physicians and loving hands could do had no effect.
 He passed away Oct. II, l9.6 We realize how happs3 weare, wnea in peace ard pieuty. we surround the home 6re-side, with the unbroken fam liy-hoW much more in that ht me where little Howard awaits. s,Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things God hath prepared for those that love him. Suffer little children to come unto me, of such is the king dom of heaven" We feel like it is al most impossible for us, but we know His commands and in our daily suppli- cation, we ask in faith through His name. and are forgiven for every idle word, deed or thought, we are as spot less in the sight of God, as the little one who knew no sin. Often I could hear the sweet voice of little Howard playing in the yard. It called to mind the sweet voice of my little girl, almost three years old, WI 0 in her last illness would say, 'kiss the baby mamma. .'' She also was laid to rest in the Freedom ia cemetery almost nine years ago. N When the death angel came little Towards bedside was surrounded by many relatives and friends A large concourse of relatives and friends fol- lowed his little body to it's last resting place Brother Williams spoke words of comfort to the bereaved ones. and warned the unprepared to turn from thelr evil ways.
 Let us live so we may meet the little angel in the paradise of God. Bessie when at her Grandpa's s now says: I'll just play in the house while Towards gone, it'sso lonesome in the yard.'

dressing the II witnesses. The, guards
desisted from their efforts, and with

said: y .fi !,
