JOHN BULL AS A CEN-

Home Secretary J. R.
Clynes of the Ramsay Mac-

in England. He has issued
to the local licensing censors
a memorandum that aims to
keep children away from
films “inciting to immor-

Children under 16 years
of age, unless accompanied
by a parent or guardian, will
not be allowed to see certain

. WELL GO ON HOPING “
One thing to necessary, if we are
to get anything out of this re-
markable adventure called life. It is
hope. Each future moment is un-
known to us, and it arrives to us
darkly unless we have prepared for
its coming with a lighted candle
of hope.
For very many, 1929 has contain-
ed dark days and nights. Not so
dark and not ao long as were the
days and nights of all the world
a few years ago, when the most
intelligent part of the human race
was devoting all its energies to
blowing itself to bits and crawling
hither and thither in damp, dirty,
unhealthy trenches. But into each
year there comes a certain amount
of discouragement and pain for
many people.
. If you are among those who ex-
perienced sadness or reverses dur-
ing 1929, consider what chiefly
made it possible for you to live
through the year. Hope, of course,
Hope that things would be better.
Those who loot hope are not with
us to greet the New. Year. Those
who abandoned hope are not among
us to greet with our lighted candle
each fresh moment, each mysteri-
ous day that for ows upon the
heels .of the departing past. They
have abandoned the adventure,
along with hope, for the adventure
ceases to be possible when hope to
gone.
It isn’t made up entirely of one
element, of one love, of one in-
terest. If you keep hope alive, the
days willi pass, and with them the
277=20 -------worst of the storm. If you let
ency to abandon hope almost whol- self-pity smother your optimism,
hope will die out, and you will face
blackness. You can be so sorry for
yourself over a bad tooth that you
can be driven to suicide. But you
can be so hopeful in the midst of
the ruins of all your dreams that
nobody will know the extent of
your catastrophe.
I Yes, for another year we must
go on hoping. We cannot do oth-
erwise.
ly. whenever there to any symptom
of darkness coming on. The doc-
tor says: “You have anemia,” or
"Possibly there is a spot on your
right lung,” and straightway they
collapse. Self-pity covers them
over like a landslip, if it. is to
shine into their lives at all, must
be nursed and tended by relatives,
friends and acquaintances.
A friend of mine from New Mex-
ico was in my office the other day.
Ten years ago the best doctors in-
formed him that he Md tubercu-
losis, and a bad case. He looks
the best now that he has looked
since I have, known him. He has
just written a book In his spare
time, and M came to New York
to talk to publishers about it. He
took some tests at a laboratory,
and was informed that he still has
tuberculosis It’s an right with him.
He doesn’t mind having it, so long
as it permits him to go on en-
joying and appreciating a world
that has unfolded some of its most
wonderful treasures to him. —

AQUA CALIENTE, Mexico, Dec.
so—(UP)—Martial law prevailed
here and in Tia Jnana today as
some 20,000 fans flocked to the
opening program of the 81-day
racing season of the new Auga
Caliente Jockey Club. t
The entire Mexican garrison at
Tia Juana, consisting of some 800
soldiers, was called out to prevent
any serious trouble arising from the
strike of laborers at the Agua Cal-
lente track.
Race track officiate and American
officers said that the measure
merely was a precautionary one.
No disturbance of any nature was
reported - and none was expected,
it WM said.
The difficulty started yesterday
when 500 Mexican laborer* quit
work because they objected to the
use of do many United States la-
borers in putting the finishing
touches on the new $2,000,000 race
ing plant.

THERE’S A SIGN AT YOUR ELBOW
There is a sign at every railroad crossing reading, “Stop! Look!
and Listen!" yet every day somebody gets knocked into eternity
by a locomotive. Everywhere, thinking highway commissioners
warn unthinking motorists to ‘drive with discretion,” don’t pass
on a hill,” “slow down,” and all those things; still, a newspaper
without a list of automobile fatalities, is the exception rather than
the rule.
As people still walk and drive blindly in front of speeding
twenty-ton locomotives, and as darn tools under steering wheels „
still kill themselves and endanger the lives of law-observing and
caution-observing citizens, just so do some communities remain
sound asleep to their opportunities, constantly slipping more and
more into the valley of "what used to be," while other live, wide-
awake towns "take telling”, shake off their shrouds of lethargy
and get going to a bigger, brighter, and better day.
What do you want in Cleburne? What does Cleburne need to
make it what you would like it to be?
Whatever you want—whatever Cleburne needs, you can have it
if you want it bad enough and will "take telling” to get it.
It it’s factoriee you want, get “right” yourself, make Cleburne
“right” by making it READY for factortoe, and the result will BE
factories. If it’s home builders you want, the same to true.
There are more manufacturers seeking locations for new factories
than there are towns ready and right for factories. There are
thousands more people in the market for, and just waiting to get
“sold” on new home locations, than there are communities which
can rightfully lay claim to being even semi-qualified for ideal *
residence.*
There is a sign at your elbow—both elbows. That sign is a sign
of the times, telling you that never in your life has Cleburne had
the opportunities that it has today. Everywhere you turn there
to proof of it. Every place you go you can see it. if you LOOK,
and hear it if you LISTEN. ,
Decide on what Cleburne wants, find out what It needs, KNOW
what it has, what it lacks, where it is strong and whsrs it is weak.
. Don’t guess—KNOW. Then get going to go get it, 1.

“For several months, I have had
an awful lot of trouble with my
stomach. Everything disagreed with
me, and after meals I would get
that puffed-up, bloated feeling, and
belch up my food sour and indi-
gested. 1 got to the point where 1
was almost afraid to eat anything
it caused me so much misery. I
was constipated, had terrible head-
aches, and my sleep was very poor.
My system seemed to be all run
down, I was losing weight and felt
tired and worn out all the time, 1
was losing ground and felt that
unless I got the right medicine
troubles would soon become ser-
ious. My tongue was coated, and 1
had such a bad breath I was
ashamed of it. ;
“I saw. Orgatone advertised so
highly. I decided to try it. In the
hopes that it would help me. I now
eat most anything I want to, and
can eat things I haven’t been able
to for a long time. My stomach
is in fine shape, and I haven’t had
a touch of indigestion, and I don’t
have those bilious or dizzy spells as
I did My headaches are gone, and
