MR.. II. /. WHITFIELD

II you are ever at the First Bap-
fist Church, you win see a car roll
up and Mr.. Whitfield will get out.
lie Is very large and broad shoulder
ed. He is about fifty-fve years of
rage AT certain times he looks taller
than usual. If you look more closely
you will see that he has a round face
with very determined look. He has
a nice mustache on his upper lip, and
his mouth is not as firm as | have
seen some mems. He has a very
large neck with some wrinkles in it.
His chest is not so big but it makes
up for that as it slopes down.
He has a very steady walk, and
walks slowly when he is not in hur-
ny. But ! have seen him walking
rather fast, and on these occasions
there is some reason to walk fast.
Sometimes you will see him sitting
very still with his eyes upward, and
when in this position he is thinking
very hard. What he is thinking
about do not know, but | suppose
that it concerns the welfare of some
of the boys whom he has in charge.
You can meet this man in many
places such as churches, schools and
golf links. do not doubt that he
will be elected governor next term.
And if he is elected, the people of
Columbus will lose a fine citizen.

own "Mr Whit" written by four
teen-year-old Cullen Rogers, of Sons
Lake, Texas. He is one of Mr.. Whit
fields boys at the B. B. Jones Farm.
