VALLEY
BY Q. NJ HALL

NOV that development Of unim-
IN proved lands lying between
Brownsville and San Benito is
soon to get under way, Judge oscar
c. Dancy is sounding a call that it
is now time to get the parallel road
to that running between these two
towns started.
For a number OF years Judge
Dancy has been pointing out to
Valley residents and taxpayers the
need of such a road. Now that de-
velopment has started, he is warm
ing the public that never can it be
done at a smaller cost, and the
need for two highways will soon be
almost imperative.
In fact, Judge Dancy says that II
Cameron county does not do this
AZ this time we viii all be buying
kicking machines for ourselves"
Location OF a 100-foot right OF
way Is the slogan ne j. sounding.
The years that are TO come will
prove that Judge Dancy is right.
rARLY indications are that the
special train to Monterrey Will
be forthcoming b. September
26. the starting day.

Brownsville. That IS. II will bring
untold benefits If those making the
hegira are Of the heads OF the
business OF Brownsville This party
will be met and entertained by men
of high standing and calibre.
Brownsville should send its repre-
sentative business men TO make
friends with them. 1t is no trip
for a company TO buy a ticket sim
ply because it feels called upon 70
do SO, and then send someone to
represent that company who occu-
pies a minor executive post IN
with the company.
II Is needed to have 125 reserva-
tiong made before the special train
can be obtained. Observing other
instances OF similar trips in other
places, We find the tendency has
beer 10 have about 50 reservations
made at the very last, and nave
those in charge wondering whether
to act or 90 a fishing. Usually the
train is ordered and when II pulls
kut there is the required number
aboard. But let's get our reserva-
tions for this trip II 70 those III

III IS with regret that announce
ment is received today OF the
= loss of Col. Daniel Van WORMS
of Fort Brown.
Col. Van Voorhis has been In
command at Fort Brown ter the past
wear and during his residence ~
Brownsville has made many
friends. Relations between the
army people at the fort and resi-
dents OF Brownsville have been
most cordial. and much OF this can
be laid to such commanding OIL
GERS as Col. Van Voorhis.
While Brownsville expects TO offer
A hearty welcome to his successor,
II will be with the feeling OF a loss

True they we're happy days, and

But given the opportunity the

IRON what We can gather, Labor
day did not cost any Valley
lives via automobile. Congrat-
ulationS are IN order.
