As the law against shooting squirrels expired the first of this week, all those who are thrilled by the smell of gunpowder, an.l whose palates are exquisitely tickled by the taste of the wild meat, are now engaged in ex plaining how many they didn't kill the morning before. Vance Pepper, an embryo Nimrod, has made one of the best records of any local sportsman yet announced. He is going out ar. 'omorrow morning, and if he kills two more squirrels then, he will have killed three. It is very pleasing to fathers and guardians to have then tables replenished so bountifully with this choice meat, and at such a small cost. T'u eypens■ of Vance's campaign for squir rels so far is only this much: Gun $15.00 Gas 3.00 Shells 26.40 Repairs and clothing ... 1.35 Salve 25 $46.00 Less meat 15 Red $45.85 Hunters Caught Without Badges County Game Protector C.

It would be extremely hard for the best of authors to do juste to describing the State of Te\:;j and the Centennial. Altr.oi: i neither of us visited the Wor.'i- Fair at Chicago last yeat, i Centennial at Dallas. Tex., is sari |to be far superior. Though we were in Dallas only one month. both of us learned ti love the I Lone Star State and lis natives. I | We can truthfully rfay that out: i eyes have never before belie id i anything as beautiful as the ien tennial. We left Walnut Cove on Satur day morning, August 8, at 7 » a. m., arrived in Roanoke, Va.. j I j at 11:35 where we were compel! Ed to wait for the "Memphis 1 I Special." Very much excited, al though thrilled, we boarded the I "Memphis Special" in which we rode until we arrived in Mem phis, Tenn. The next morning at 7:20 a. m. we had forty minutes I there for breakfast. At 8: a. m. |we left for Dallas on the "Mis ; souri Pacific Railway." We had 1 a fifteen minute wait-over in Lit- tie Rock, Arkansas, putting us (into Dallas Sunday night at 8:35 p. m. Upon our arrival a bunch > of "FAIRS" were there to meet «l , 4 The states that we traveled through were North Carolina. , Virginia, Tennessee, Georgia, Ala- I bar.:a, Mississippi, Arkansas, an- Texas. One oi' the most beauti ful scenes th".t rozchei our eyes while traveling was the Tennessee Valley. Arkansas apj eared to be 'affected more by the drought than any state we passed thru. I lit hough Georgia, Alabama and , Mississippi were very dry. While we were there we were > 1 given permits to visit several of , the large industries and buildings . j such as the Brown Cracker and t Candy Company; Dr. Pepper and Coca-Cola plants; The Dallas | .Journal, Southern Methodist Uni j versity of Texas, The Magnolia Building, which has thirty-two k ) stories, The Republic Bank Build . ing, The Ford Plant, where we , saw cars maue and the first car , that was ever made, and many , other places of interest. ; j We were given an interview about North Carolina over WFFA | which is located in the main din j ing room of the Baker Hotel, the largest one there. We were also . given several dinner parties in the Baker Hotel and one in the Adolphus Hotel, Dun ton's Hotel and a luncheon in the Peacock Terrr.se. Some of the many interesting place* that we visited in and around Dallas were: White Rock Lake, which ia thirteen miles around and has beautiful Water LilliM, furnishes recreation for thnn—nd* of persons annually, with fishing, boating, and bethink this is in the city limits. Another large recreation center is Lak Dallas, 20 miles north "f the city which furnishes Dallas \v:i all of its water. The city i.:;s mi ic than 4.400 acres n parks 1 r la; - grounds. Dallas has forty thoats- vi- . a total seating capacity : " Love field, airport win :i wo vjsitcd. if : five miles r.oi" city, is rated as one >. iv. - n the country. Dallas is renowned cleanliness. The city has . ,;n .- ' ant supply of natural g;:.- ::• i Southwestern fields. It is ' :gely ' I used for fuel. The beauty an ! whiteness of the city's ' i are little blackened by grir.-.y tie- ' ;»sts and the atmosphere i clear. Highland Park, a part ol Great-, er Dallas, and immediately ad-| f {joining Dallas proper to the north| ! has been generally declared to oe! one of America's most beau-' I ful reside*nce sections. ! We visited a Texas ranch that' is thirty miles square. During lour stay we visited Fort Worth several times. One of our trips I i there was to see the Frontier, ! Centennial which is being held 'this year. It has a show "CASA . MAN'ANA," which is considered j one of the best that has ever been . | presented in America. Some oi j ( the characters in this show were: I' Ginger Rt>gers, Robert Taylor. ( ( Rudy VLilly, Si lly Rand, Paulj ""hit:man and his orchestra r.n' I • r.:a :y n !.• >«. The costumes that , were used ir. this show were 'vrtrtffV not be•. describe J in words. ( Now. we will try to give you i bri •(' or t lino of the Centennial. We might wt it: for a week and , nt the end of that time, we arc sure we would not be near thru. We will now try to name a few of the industries that are rep resented in the Centennial Groun 1 by beautiful buildings and ex hibits which cover 185 acres. They are as follows: The Ford Build ing, Agricultural Building, Ad j ministration Building, The Food j Building, Varied Industries, Elec i trical and Communications Build ing, The Petroleum Building, Fed eral Government Building, Trans-' I portatjon Building, Live Stock | !
