to pause... and refresh
In office, workshop or factory you find big red
coolers with frosty bottles of ice-cold Coca-Cola
to provide the pause that refreshes. It’s a part
of good work.

El Paso Humane Society
Going To “Cats And Dogs
EL PASO.—Literally, as well as
figuratively, the El Paso Humane
Society is going to the cats and
dogs.
The machine age is the reason.
Time was when the organization
was vigorous In preventing cruelty
to animals—especially horses—and
its membership was prominent so-
ftally. holding twice-monthly meet-
ings, parties and picnics. But now
its last salaried employes arc gone,
and work with animals is limited
mostly to cats and dogs. Although
sometimes it deals with husbands
and wives.
Dr. T. A Bray, who was elected
president of the organization some
35 years ago, is still head of it, and
the last election was held six years
ago.
"Tlie society was formed 35 years
ago. mainly to prevent cruelty to
horses," Dr. Bray said. "But now
there arc so few horses that nobody
can see any use in the society.
"Just the same, I still get an
average of one call a day from
someone who wants a cat helped
down out of a tree or hauled out
from under a porch, or from some-
one who wants to complain about
a dog not being properly fed or
barking too much, or from some-
one who wants a kitten killed."
It used to oe that the society
sent one of its paid men out to take

day from Electra where site was

j of the death of her sister.

SOFT WATER!
Is The Water Hard?
You can have soft water, softer
than rain water. Pure drinking
water free from alkali. Dish water
easier, laundering easier, whiter,
cleaner clothes that last longer.
For the bath and shampoo you
will notice a striking difference
from the hard water. Cuts soap
bill in half. Lux-eau does the job
and is guaranteed to do just
what we say it will do. Will last
indefinitely with a little care.
Just slip on the faucet, hot or
cold. No chemicals used, just
genuine Zeolite stone. Priced so
any one can afford. Let me show
you about it.
