Spring BRINGS
NEW OCEANS
Of BEER
Amber Fluid Could Fill
San Antonio River,
Say Dry Men.

an the spring a young mans fancy
lightly turns to thoughts of love, :"
they say.
But spring with its balmy breezes
has pronounced another effect.
1t makes a man thirsty, prohibition
men say.
And as the weather warns up, so
does the dry officer.
A noticeable increase in business is
being shown down where the home
brew flows; several beer raids have
been made, and the beer bootleggcr
had better watch his step, the prohibi-
ton officers declare, for more raids
are in store.
In fact, they say that if all the beer
they have confiscated so far this
wet" season, were poured into the
San Antonio river it undoubtedly
would be raised sufficiently to float
one of the biggest of Uncle Sans bat
tleships, or it might cause another
flood
The officers expect to nip the bust
ness "in the bud" before thirst-induc-
ing summer weather arrives.

HELPS
SHOT YOUTH

Nathaniel Hawthorne Junior School
students wondered at the hunger which
caused one of their number to carry
a loaf of bread with him throughout
the day, nibbling it from time to time.
Their curiosity was appeased by a
teacher of the sixth grade boy, who
told the following story: When ques-
toned regarding a handful Of bird
shot the youngster had, he quickly
swallowed the shot, so he could give
a negative answer to the teachers
question.
Fearing he might become i'll, he
went to the office of Miss Mary Hup-
pertz, principal, and telephoned his
mother, who visited the school and
prescribed eating stale bread as q
means to prevent the shot from lodg-
ing.
Lead bullets, shotgun shell wadding,
and other such things have been placed
on the taboo list as a diet at the
school.
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1926-04-01

Do you feel the pangs of hunger and cold
AS many Brother has done? -
Do YOU ever try to realize
That YOU might have been that one?
Do you never consider it just this way
That it easily MIGHT BE YOU? Ia
Do you ever stop and ask yourself - p. - >
If there's anything you can do?
When you look about you from day to day,
Where want and poverty thrive
Do you ever think of YOURSELF as there,
And thank God you're alive
Because it gives you the chance to help
To comfort, sustain and cheer?
For there's such lot we all can do
On our little sojourn here.
How very different things would look,
If we each of us tried to see
Everything through anothers eyes,
With the thought-IT MIGHT BE Me!
So pause awhile and~consider it well,
Then GIVE, and freely, too -
AS though they were all the ones you love,
Because-IT MIGHT BE YOU!
