Valley lady, called on the engineer
OF this column today.
IL was about that affair between
D. c. Earnest and J. Q. Ward, which
has caused no little stir in Mercedes.
Mrs. Rasey pointed out in the ac-
count printed by The Herald words
which she said might mean any
thing with reference 10 herself, DR..
Kasey and Mr.. Earnest.
The Herald intended they should
refer only to the taking OF beer as
being Objectionable. and gladly
points this out with sincere apollo
gies To all three concerned.
In fact. the engineer Of this col
umn thinks Mrs. Kasey n OF the
finest ladies' ever met TO talk 70,
when they are not exactly pleased.
NITY fathers OF Brownsville have

In discussing this issue, The Her
aid wishes to call the attention Of
the public that il is a question which

cent visit TO Brownsville, while
pointing out that our water is not
dangerous from a germ-carrying
standpoint. said It is not up 10 STAN
dard in every other manner.
The present filtration plant IS
too small, all admit. What is TO be
done about IL is a matter for more
experienced heads 10 decide, but Mr..
Ehlers was not very complimentary
and said something had TO be done,
II a high rating is to be obtained
MARSHALL c. Hoppin Of Wash
ington, of the department Of
agriculture, who recently inspect
ed the Brownsville airport. had more
nice things TO say about this city
asset. than one car shake a stick at.
He came TO the conclusion that
with a little stroke here and anoth-
er there we would rank third in the
United States. That is just about as
high a rating as a city OF ten times
the size Of Brownsville could wish.
Or twenty times. for that matter.
Mr.. Gilmore, capable manager OF
the airport, viii in all PROBABILITY
G to the steps needed to gain this
reputation.
