The following clipping. from the
Celina fTexasl Record, contains good
advice for all people at all seasons:
The government experts and hank
ers told us to invest III government
securities-bonds, war saving stamps.
etc, hut there was SO much more to
be made bucking the oil or automobile
game that the advice didn't appeal to
us. We wanted to get quick action on
our money and jump at once into
wealth and affluence. Many of us took
the leap, but did not land where we
expected to land. The jolt when we
hit the ground awoke us to the fact
that instead of taking down about 300
per cent on the principle invested. we
could not even locate the principle,
while the slick-tongued guy with the
beautifully engraved stock< certificates
knew right where to find 1t and was
regularly drawing checks upon 1t. The
advice OF these government experts and
our banker friends may not tickle the
ear like the line put out by the oil stock
salesman, but the fellow who takes 1t
will not need to lie awake nights won
dering why he was such an easy mark. Z

RETROSPECTIVE
Sixty Years Ago.

The Banner Of June /, 1s61---Belleyue.l
Under the heading The First Pass
age at Arms" there appears the fol-
lowing:
The first hand to hand fight that
came of between the North and South
took place at Hampton, near Fortress
Monroe, on the 18th ult., in which the
Southern troops were victorious. They
killed over GOO and lost but about 80.
The fight is still going on, and it has
become general fight all along the
Zine of Virginia. President Davis
started out last Saturday for the SCAT
of war;. Hon. L. T. WigfalI of Texas,
goes as an aid to the President. The
fighting was going on up to Tuesday
evening last, though the wires were cut
down 50 that nothing could be heard
from the scene Of conflict.
Let our brave volunteers rush to
the conflict Their brethren are al
ready In the field why stand they here
idle? In our opinion, the fight has
opened in good earnest now. and will be
fierce for short while. and we will
conquer a peace. When the scene shall
close, who does not desire a place In
the picture, near the smoke?
Your enlistment for the war will
not keep YOU beyond the twelve months.
In our opinion; for In that time you
will have achieved your independence,
or not one Of you will be surviving. for
President Davis is now at the head of

big tide has not come vet, but it will

settled. And, too, as the Adner cor
respondent of ten years ago intimated,
the exceptional Inducements of the
South remain to he found out. When
the South is full of home-seekers, as it
will be some day, land values are going
to advance very much, and land will
also be much in demand. and that's
what prompts us to write this COM
