W. T. Thompson was over at Py-
ron Sunday to visit Mr.. and Mrs. j.
Y. Bowen. This old couple have lived
there for 4 long time and enjoy the
comings of their children and
friends. Mr.. Bowen remarked during
the day that just 81 years ago he land
ed in Collin county, from South Car
DINA. and it is probable that he is
the oldest Texas citizen in ecurry
county.
After many years in Collin. he
came to Scurry and has for a long
time been one of our best and most
honorable citizens. One thing the
Signal knows about Mr.. Bowen Is
that he is all American and enjoys
seeing Germany squirm and fret over
having to pay that big reparation
debt levied by the allied powers
