Wtmade at the Brownsville Rotary

club yesterday the trip 70 Mon
terrey was given a definite impetus.
But with these fourteen and the
large number from MatamoroS tbs

wolf, but to call attention TO the
people OF Brownsville that a serious
situation is being faced. The trip 10
Monterrey must be made II IS
known in the northern Mexico met
rCpolis that 1t is planned and 70
abandon IL would be business and
good will suicide. The best way to
make the trip is by special train,

and n of comfort.
One hundred and twenty-five res
ervations are necessary. Next We'd
nesday is the day the railway COM
pany must be notified whether the

of commerce at once. You will be
giving yourself a treat and serving
your city and your community.

HOOPS. my dear
Harlingen wants to form an
other county with herself as the
county, seat. Knowing the first, the
IatterBaould not be hard TO guess.
II trat small area wants to take
on the taxation load Of public build
ings and public administration with
other expenses too numerous too
mention. the other counties are
somewhat IN the position Of n who
has had visitors at their houses
partaking OF many good things,
and the visitors have now decided
they do not like the company nor
the food. About all they can say 70
them Is. "All right 60 ahead and
build your home, buy some land and
proceed to work IL, and il is hoped
that you make both ends meet
But when Ii comes 70 cutting off
the land 10 turn over to them the
big racket will probably take place.

ticking off the letters n at a time
