Meet Young Woman Of FIFTY!

A good-looking woman so years
old is not unusual today. And
whether they realize it or not, these
young women of so owe their
youthfulness to advertising.
Idle talk, you say? Not at all!
Statistics show that the life span of
women has been extended IL years
in the last three decades. This pro-
longed youth is, to large measure,
due to labor-saving devices devel-
oPed by American Industry.
~You merely have to look about
the modern American home to see
how the burden of household labor
has been shifted from mothers to
motors. Vacuum cleaners, stokers,
oil burners and electric-powered
kitchen equipment are but few of
the wife savers.

Doctors Fashion Eyelid
Out of Skin From Arm

MINNEAPOLIS, MINN.-Univer-
sity Of Minnesota hospital staff ply
sicians have fashioned an eyelid
from skin taken from the arm Of
Mrs. Terra Leonard, AZ, Minneapo-
lis, in an attempt to save her sight.
Mrs. Leonard suffered from can
cerous growth on her right eye. Ra-
dunn treatments burned away the
cancerous tissue. but left a small
hole in the eye and SCARED the lid
so badly she was unable to close
her eyes.
Physicians said the condition
would have led eventually to blind
ness as the eye would dry out and
become infected if the lid was not
repaired.
The upper lid was split and skin
from the under side Of her arm
grated into place. Physicians said
a similar operation would be per-
formed on the lower lid within a
month.

Keep Color of
Texas 2-Cun Era
Chaplain of Rangers Ranks
Among Picturesque
Characters.

FORT WORTH.-Down in this
land of cowboy boots and 10-gallon
hats, still survive some Of the most
colorful peace officers in America,
several of whom attended the Texas
Sheriffs' association convention here.
One of the best-known actually
isn't an officer. He is the Rev. P. B.
Don't Call Me Pistol Totin' Preach
err Hill. In the Texas Rangers, of
which he is chaplain, Hill is known
as "Cap'n" rather than Reverend.
He's six-foot Presbyterian min
lister, and the six-shooter he carries
is reputed to be one of the most
beautiful in Texas-which takes in
lot of fancy firearms. 1t is
pearl-handled, silver plated revolt
yer. inlaid with tiny gold ornaments.
Knows the Underworld.
Il know nearly every underworld
character in my district" said Hill.
Il have never violated con-
fidence."
The minister devotes some Of his
time to the Texas Rangers, but more
VI it to helping rehabilitate those
who have fallen from grace. At
least eight persons who once were
notorious criminals, with Hills help
have become useful citizens.
Texas has three women sheriffs,
and at least one other woman is an
active chief deputy sheriff. A typ
ical Texas woman sheriff is Mrs
George R. Booth of F1oresville, who
was appointed to her husbands
place last year when her husband
fell off his horse and was killed.
Two husky deputies do the heavy
work for her, and Mrs. Booth has
never pointed a loaded gun at any
person. But let nobody doubt her
shooting ability. She is known in
southwest Texas as an expert rifle
shot, from experience gained in
hunting deer and small game.
Sheriff Finds Life Tame.
Sheriff A. L. Biaggne of Calves
ton, association president, whose re-
sort county is one of the liveliest
in Texas, still finds life so tame that
he takes ride on a rodeo steer
somewhere in Texas at least once
a month.
Texas sheriffs now are familiar
with sub-machine guns, short-wave
radio, and the latest in laboratory.
sleuthing. but nobody yet has been
able to take the COW country out of
the boys.
II never saw so many bow legs
in all my life" commented one out
Of-state resident who walked into
the hotel lobby when the convention
was being held.
One delegate estimated that 80 per
cent Of Texas sheriffs have been
associated with the cattle business.
Many of the older officers can re-
member when cattle rustlers were
the biggest crime problem in the
state.

Christmas Seals Returns

The Montgomery County Tuber-
culosis Associations appeal to per-
sons who have received Christmas
Seals, to make prompt payment
should meet with attention so that
the Associations campaign against
this disease need not be halted for
lack of funds. It is well known
that the sale of these little seals
produces the sole revenue of the
Association; by means Of it, a
steady fight has been kept up in
past years with excellent results.
The persons to whom the seals
We're sent before Christmas were
mostly those who have purchased
them in past years and it cannot
be conceived that they would
cease TO feel an interest in the
recent campaign. Dilatory returns
handicap this good work, which
in Montgomery County, is es-
pecially important because the
percentage of the population of
the county who are victims of
tuberculosis is high, two lives a
month ara taken by this disease.
It takes but a short expenditure
Of time TO make returns but
prcmptness ID highly important to
the Association.
