The Snyder signal. (Snyder, Tex.) 1887-????, 1921-02-18

One Ohio farmers plan is typical.
When his eldest son was II years old
he went 20 the bank and borrowed
$3.50 TO buy a registered bull and two
registered heiiers. In eight years
this investment has grown into

schooling for three children, a COM

keep the children on the farm: they
do make farming a profession worth
following.
Doubtless you started with
scrubs-maybe you haven't even yet
overcome this handicap to success.
Let your children start with pure
breds-they deserve it. And let them
start, too, with that great service

 Well, what d'yuh know about that Whitey answered unenthusias- tically. "Where's the jam?' "A transaction of importance several transactions, to be explicit of the last administration, are like ly to be held up to public scrutiny. It has become known to the opposi- ton newspaper"

KATHERINE MACDONALD
 AT PALACE THEATER

The famous American beauty, ,Kath- nrine Macdonald, features the photo- play bill at the Palace for the first three days of the week. She presents her newest production, My Lady's Latchkey," a romantic drama with a touch of mystery that is bound to please.
 The Keith vaudeville bill is featured by four fine acts including Harry and Grace Ellsworth in smattering of song and dance with grace and agil- ity. Charles Ledigar, the flying boob, on a tight rope, keeps up a humorous line of batter showing that he is as sure of his conversation as he is of his feet; Sally and Kennedy, a pair of clever comedians are seen in the Ital- ian character offering called "Shoot Me- One of the big hits of the bill will be Dixie Hamilton, a pleasing

 Don't get so white" he said com passionately. He wouldn't dare to do anything overt. Just keep the child on his own side of the road and it will be all right"
 II Must Tell You"
 We hurried on to the shelter of Mrs. Ticers sitting room, and for the rest of the day-barring a flying visit I made to the hospital, finding Marion much improved, and her mother less listless, more animated than she had been--I lowered over my little lad to my mother-in-1aws s openly expressed disgust.
 If you'd spread a little of that aunt away with Richard with never a tho Ight for the blessed darling this morning, for instance-it would be more to the point" she said caustically, and though I knew that her choler rose principally from the fact that Junior will hardly look at her when l am near him, her words stung me deeply, nevertheless.
 DIckt came to the rescue as he generally Coes when he is in a good numor.
 NOW, mother, ,il's morning was my fault.' he said, and I've got to have Madse go with me tonight, too. Aprleton's down in this vicinity, and I've got to give little dinner tc- night. But don't hoIG it up against Madge. Blame me. I'm a good goat"
 I'm not aware that I have ever blamed Margaret for anything which was not her fault" his mother said icily. AS for your dinner, go ahead, both of you. I think I am perfectly capable of taking care of my grand child.''
 Who's Machiavelli, now?" I whis- pered, as his mother f1ounced out of the room.
 Well, Appleton is at Southamp- ton, and I have to give this dinner,' he retorted with a defiant grin. '1 can't help it that the two facts are not related, can I?" No, but you can help being late for the dinner,' I said, which you will be if you delay dressing much longer"
 "Y You're right, as usual, Light of My Eyes" he laughed, and we both hurried through our dressing arriv- ing at the quaint old inn, in Shelter Island, just as Dr. Petit drove up with Claire Foster beside him. The , girl imm ediately monopolized Dicky' S attention, as I had counted on her doing, and I had the opportunity I wished to speak confidenttally to ] Dr. Petit
 'I must tell you something which 1 may shock and displease you, doc tor" I said hurriedly. | He looked inquiringly at me. 'The guest whom you have heen | asked to meet is Grace Draper" ] said slowly

 But the Civic Reform folks mean to nominate you by acclaim for sen ator two weeks from Saturday, Jimmy finished for him serenely. Put your money back in your pocket, MT. Banks. Let me show you the way out murmured Jimmy hastily, smil- ing still, though his face was strained and white. ''Tivotson, if you please"
 At that peremptory call the door flashed open, disclosing Tivotson on the stairs. And as T. Elihu, loosing his preliminary below, whirled in that direction, Jimmy caught the bulky visitor by his trousers belt and the slack of his collar and started him for the exit. Before he could re- sist against the rigid arms which propelled him, T. Elihu was on the stairway-and there was no wisdo m in offering resistance there. So Jim my Gordon escorted the towns great man to the lowel level, with the city editor showing the way.
 The same night of T. Elihu's visit at the office of the Courier, shortly after 12, one Whitey Garritty, out on bail on charge of grand lar ceny, which, twice postponed, was scheduled for trial early in the win ter, visited the house of the dis trict attorney. whose duty it would be to prosecute him.

The Bramley, for Sweet Sixteen
BY MARIAN HAEE.

New York, Aug. 3o.-If you are sweet sixteen or younger you have of course, a "Bramley."
 The simple, straight-lined youthful costume with it's demure white collar and cuffs has affected the neck line more than any other domestic fash ion. The high, round neck has all most supplanted the lower cut for young girls.
 Franklin Simon's three-piece suit is as indispensa ble to the Junior Miss as Peter Thompson.
 This seasons Bramley, of Jersey wool, has a circular cape with cord ing at the shoulders The cuffs and collar are of white linen.
 The Bramley comes in all the darker shades, navy, brown, henna. ar d of course, no style so Puritan in suggestion could be evolved without gray.

 Spot, however, was not in such haste that he didn't stop and give a
 good trouncing to the dog that had

 Spot sent the surly fellow yelping into

 Jameson nodded. Get in touch with him. And wait until you hear rom me. I'm going to find out first IT thls dog means to see this thing through, or is only waiting until he gets his price,
 T. Ellhu Banks entered the Cour- 1ers editorial rooms a scant five min utes. Ii you can grant me just a nc ment or two, in private, sir he suggested to Jimmy. '1'll be brief :"
 Tlvotson effaced himself with leis- surely gr1mness. And the moment he was gone, MT. Banks opened nego- |tiations.
 How much do you want-your rock-bottom fgure?' he asked.
 Tt was on the tip of my tongue to ask-how much have you?" he laughed genia1ly. "I don't mean to haggle, either, MT. Banks, or beat about the bush, but just what, or how much do I understand you wish to purchaser"
 T. Elihu's great jaw seemed to edge forward
 That treacherous sot's silence" he began, when Jimmy interrupted
 Il couldn't guarantee that under any circumstances. Tivotson has taken [a-a very decided aversion to you sir, If you get my meaning. I couldn't promise to keep Tivotson silent'' Then, your agreeme not to back him up in his charges. I can take care of him.
