Patriots In Peace


1--WE need patriots in peace as well
as in war;" said Judge Hughes. Our
most important work lies in the de-
velopment of good citizens. We used
to call the foreigners "Wops, 'Bo-
hunks 'Sheenies,' etc., but we don't
hear that any more We have found
out that they are humans and our
equals. We must approach them in
the split Of brotherhood. Sometimes
they make better citizens than native
born Americans, because they have
lived and suffered in other lands and
can make comparisons with the Old
World which help them to appreciate
America"
Character Counts Most
Concluding his address with a tri-
butte to the old-fashioned American
home, where the family gathered for
evening prayer, Judge Hughes said,
These old fashioned mothers and
fathers gave strong men and noble
women to America. We cannot meas
ure our country's prosperity by it's
rolling prairies or it's bank accounts.
but only by the character of it's men
making money and more about the
heritage of good name"

G.. r. Scott Inspector from the weights and

lot OF grief for manufacturers Of different commo-
dities handled in the State and as a result the peo-
pie are going TO come nearer getting what they are

be their way here for similar purpose, F. Gems
berg being the complainant Mr.. Ccnsbcrg re-
ports small shortage shipment Of flour pur-
chased from the Sherman firm.
There have been dispositions made of any
of the cases, said Attorney Ponder today, but
they will be prosecuted to the letter of the law %
Other pending and further development
will be announced in few days.

days, the length of their stay depending upon the
need for their services The purpose of the de

purpose in this vicinity, said MIR. Murray. The
merchants of the city and county officials are co
operating with the department in excellent manner
said Mr.. Murray.
The work of the department has resulted in
a great saving for merchants and people of Texas
and will continue to be means for saving greater
sums
According to the work that Mr. Scott has been
doing since taking charge of this office, there is
no way Of telling just how much the people. both
consumers and merchants have lost by this short
weight game, N years past. and Il is indeed fortu-
nate that man Of the nerve Of Mr. Scott has been
placed in this office. to call a halt the firms
that have been sending out short package.
Mr.. Scott stated not long ago to the Avalanche
editor that he was going to keep up the fight and
the people going to have square deal far
as his department had jurisdiction. He said too.
that this thing Of weighing hams and bacon with the
wrappers must stop. which is being practiced ex-
tensivey throughout the State.

AMARILLO. THE HUB

The contest put on by the AID Club, for slo.
gan for the city Of Amarillo, closed the first OF
March and out of the five six hundred sug-
xcstions offered the committee selected the one
that was considered the best and most expressive.
The committee which was composed OF repre-
sentatives Of the various civic organizations OF the
city admitted that their task was difficult one
in view OF the many excellent slogans sent in, but
bsevity as well sentiment being indispensable

by the citizens in general and the sentiment II ex-
presses is held be the laudable and worthy am.
bition OF our city. Whether tins ambition shall
be realized the slogan become a meaningless
phrase is a matter that lies entirely in the hands
of Amarillo people. The distinction it contains
is not one that will be attained without effort on
our part--nor even without opposition, either with
in or without corporate limits. While we have
many citizens who are in the forefront OF every
movement for the development and extension OF
Amarillos civic and commercial activities, their
work is often nullified by the active opposition OF
