Many Of our farmers are getting
uneasy for fear June rains are going
to interfere with crop conditions. To
date we have had several heavy rains
this month, put Notwithstanding this
the soil is in fine condition and has
been in good shape for work most of
this week. Crops generally are clean
and could stand good deal of rain
without suffering for work. Cotton
and corn are still unusually fine and
growing very fast. Everything looks
good to our farmers with the exception
of the labor problem which is causing
some concern in sections of the coun-
try.
Our city authorities, in response to
urgent demands, have ordered all cut
outs to cars kept closed within the city
limits. They have also called for
rigid enforcement of the speed laws.
Let every driver remember this and
conform to the law without being fore
ed to do so. If you don't, the marshal
will get you, and then it will be up to
you to take your medicine like man.
There was a meeting Of laymea
from the various denominations Of
Brownsville held at the Methodist
church Sunday afternoon for the pur-
pose of discussing the advisability of
holding union revival here in the

tbs, Presbyterian and Methodist
churches were well represented by
their pastors and leading laymen. The
union meeting was favored by all and
committee was appointed to take the
matter in hand and see just what re-
vivalist can be secured for the work.
Another meeting will be held later
when the matter will be definitely de-
termined.
