Hindus, who will give a lecture entitled, Russia, the Un- known" in the Congregational church on Monday evening. November 29, at s o'clock. MT. Hindus is an eminently successful chautauqua speaker. Of Russian peasant extraction, he under stands completely and sympathetic ally the temper of the Russian people. Coming to this country when only boy, he has earned for himself a lib- eral education. This hard-won educa- tion, together with the birthright of a winsome and gripping personality, a thorough acquaintance with his sub ject acquired in frequent visits to his native land, keen realization of the significance of the strug- gle in Russia, and his compelling elo- Quence as a speaker,-all these quali- fications fit him admirably to speak upon subject which concerns the whole world. MT. Hindus will give his audience facts clothed both in hu- nor and pathos,-but facts that will picture a wonderful people-neither Royalist nor Bolshevik- but part of the human world which has been very, very weary and hungry a very long time. and which has decided not to go hungry again. MT. Renwick, who has delighted Stafford people, will sing.

RECOMMENDS COOPERATIVE
BUILDING OF STORAGE

W. T. Williamson, Government
Cotton Classer Of Lubbock county,
believes that this county should be.
served with a farmers cooperative
warehouse, but does not believe that
the cotton farmers of the countyr0k<
yet numerous enough to justify them
going TO the expense Of building this
large house at the present time. II is
his opinion that the Wool Growers
Association and the South Plains
Cotton Raisers' and Marketing Asso-
citation ought to cooperate and build
this needed warehouse. This build
ing would be easily used for the
two associations as the wool crop
would be disposed Of before the COM
mencement Of the cotton season.
"By having a warehouse in the
county where there is a government
cotton classer," Mr.. Williamson says,
"the Federal Reserve Banks will
loan the farmers money at 6 per cent
thus they could borrow money on this
crop in storage for immediate use
IL they wanted to hold and sell col
lectively"
