NEW AND OLD
New novels at the Library in-
clude MINGO DABNEY by James
Street and BLACK GOLD by Jew-
el Gibson.
In MINGO BABNEY, the most
dramatic and sweeping of the Dab-
ney boys, a Dabney for the first
time voluntarily leaves his hearth-
stone in Mississippi in search 1 of
the pages of this novel, you will
new adventure—and a woman. In

recruit their army of insurrectos
under the eyes of the Havana po*-
lice. You will follow the rebels
through the vermin-infested jun-
gle as they fight their running
battles. MINGO DABNEY begins
in 189S and moves to a thunderous
climax in 1896. is a vigorous
tale of swashbuckling, of men who
lived and loved for the hour, know-
ing that the next might bring
disaster.
BLACK GOLD is a rough-and-
tumble tale of life in a Texas oil
tow'n . 1 . the time is 1906; the
scene, a boom town in eastern
Texas, where oil is spouting and
people aipe pouring in. Watson is
Tisf
rough, tough,,"bawdy and boister-
ous. Money flows like oil. The
hotels are jammed with drillbrs
and roughnecks, millionaires and
muleskinners, and gamblers. The
boom is on. Black Gold Is kind!
The book will give the reader much
laughter and excitement against
a Texas background as brightly
colored as a Grandma Moses
Painting. *

rms engaged tn Interstate com-

tion shall show the name and ad-
dress of applicant, the name and
address of the person, firm, or
corporation, if any, that he or she
■represents and the kind of good*

jnerce as that term is herein de
(fined: provided, however, that It
shall be unlawful for persons en-
gaged in interstate commerce to
go from house to house or place to
place in the City of Graham, Tex-
as, without having first registered
with the City Secretary of said
City giving the following informa-
tion:

trant.
(b) Name, and address of the
person, firm or corporation, if
any, that he or she represents
or for whom or through whom
orders are to be solicited or

(c) Nature of the articles or
things which aro to be sold or
ing much interest. By strictly logi-
cal standards the American sys-
tem of party government appears
irrational, inefficient, absurd. It
is full of obstruction, evasion, in-
tolerable slowness; of bargains in
place of principles, of pressure
groups in place of policies, of self-
interest and compromise. Yet in
spite, or perhaps because, of all
this, it has worked. While on all
■idea governments have fallen
apart ,durs has held together.
Why? How has this unique party
system worked? And what has
been the' price of union? In an
era when many nations are seek-
ing "democratic” government and
others are deriding it; when "fed-
eral plans for the organisation of

T. S. Eliot’s THE COCKTAIL
PARTY is one of the newer plays
which has caused much comment
from critics. Margaret Marshall,
writing in The Nation, says, T. S.
Eliot has brought off a triple play
—a drama in verse, a sophisticated
comedy with a happy ending and
a serious statement on the human
condition . , . which . . . abounds
in complicated pleasures for the
ear and for the mind . . . THE
COCKTAIL JARTY scores its
greatest success as sophisticated
comedy—for the reason that it
draws on the boldness, wit, and
elegance that provided the fur-
bishing of PRUFROCK and THE
WASTELANDS.”
TO THE HUNTERS
AND FRIENDS
With deep appreciation we want
to thank each of the hunting
friends of our husband and father,
Luther Daves, for the beautiful
wreath and donation. We also want
to thank them for other deeds of
kindness extended us during our
sorrow.

COME SEE FOR YOURSELF!
rT'His time we’d like to tell you about some-
1 t
thing that you cannot see in this picture—
something, in fact, you cannot know about
from looking at someonk else ip a passing
Buick—or from viewing a Buick on our show-
room floor.
In a few simple words-the ride of any Buick
—Special, Super or Roadmaster—is out of
this world.
It’s the feel you get from a Buick in motion.
You are going to find out that it is something
like traveling on your own private, jet-
propelled cloud—only firmer.
Maybe you know a stretch of washboard
road, where you have to slow down, or bounce
and jitter.
Try that in a Buick and see how you keep a
level, comfortable boulevard smoothness.
We could give you a lot of reasons. Soft coil
springs on all four wheels, for example—the
firm linkage of the torque-tube drive—the dis-
tribution of weight—big soft tires on wide rims
—the way Buick engines are mounted.
Come see for yourself why the Buick ride is
called "matchless”—and how little it costs to
replace a jitterbuggy with one of these level-
striding honeys. hoadmastc*. «
extra coat am SL'FER and SPECIAL
aad mritk if yeen
Even Dynaflow Drive*—always silk-smooth
and free of geared-drive harshness—plays its
part in the marvelous Buick ride.
But why simply listen to reasons? Experience
is still the best teacher.

Maybe you’re always on edge to dodge dips
and chuckholes. Those also lose most of their
jolt when you’re at the wheel of a Buick—or
in the rear seat.
