✓ 4> MAKE EVERY PAYDAY BOND DAY For Victory... Buy U. S. DEFENSE BONDS STAMPS VOLUME 5; NO. 21 OUT AMONG THE PEOPLE APATHY NOTHING NEW Apathy is nothing now in a nation at war. Apathy in a people or their government is something that can be overcome. In the latter part of January 1836 the Mexican invading army had made its appearance in Texas. Col. William Barrett Travis spent 2 weeks attempting to recruit 100 men to reinforce the garrison at San Antonio and met with little suc cess securing but 30 recruits. He was forced to report: Our affairs are gloomy indeed. The people are cold and indifferent * * * they have lost confidence in their own government and officers. * * ^ Volunteers can no longer be had or relied upon. * * * i have used my personal credit and have neither slept day nor night—and with all this ex ertion I have hardly been able to get horses and equipment for the few men I have. With attack so near, Colonel Neill, in command at San Antonio, found it necessary to report: About 200 of the men who had volunteered to garrison this town for 4 months left, contrary to my orders. As the seige began, Travis issued his famous appeal “to the people of Texas and all Americans in the world.” • No commander ever issued a more heroic appeal. There is no purer pronouncement of patriotism in all history. This document evidences the will and courage of the defenders of the Alamo. It explains the fact that the intervening 106 years have not produced an event to supersede it in its position as the ultimate in military courage. We have heard that the gallant defenders of Wake made of it another Alamo and that Mac- Arthur is holding out on Bataan Peninsula, as did the defenders of the Alamo. The appeal of Travis is particularly valuable in these trying days when the people of this Nation are con fronted with the sacrifices necessary for the maintenance of free govern ment. It is an evidence of the hero ism and the price paid for the lib erty we enjoy. It follows: Fellow citizens and compatriots, I am beseiged by a thousand or more of the Mexicans under Santa Ana. I have sustained a continual bombard ment and cannonade for 24 hours and have not lost a man. The enemy has demanded a surrender at dis cretion, otherwise the garrison are to be put to the sword if the fort is taken. I have answered the demand -with a cannon shot, and our flag still .waves proudly from the walls. I shall never surrender or retreat. Then I call on you in the name of liberty,, of patriotism, and everything dear to the American character, to come to our aid with all dispatch. The enemy, is receiving reinforcements daily, and will, no doubt, increase to three or four thousand in 4 or 5 days. If this call is neglected, I am determined to sustain myself as long as possible and die like a soldier who never forgets what is due to his own honor and that of his country. Victory or death.

We ought to buy Stamps and Small bonds just as often as we can, be cause ‘Uncle Sam’ needs your help now.’’ NECESSARY CURTAILMENT AT COUNTY LIRRARY Due to the removal of all WPA library workers except in areas where there are camps, the County Library Board held a meeting on Monday to devise ways and means whereby the present arrangements would be cur tailed to the least possible degree.

Law at 1605 Milligan street, BLACK IS NOT A COLOR Although black is popularly re garded as a color, and may for all practical purposes be considered as such, technically it is not a color At all, but the absence of color. The vis ual experiences we describe as color are the result of two phenomena of physics: First, that colors are pro duced by waves of light having dif ferent lengths; second, that all sub stances (except completely transpar ent ones) have the quality of either absorbing or reflecting the light waves which fall upon them. The longest light wave visible to the human eye is the one producing the color red; the shortest, the one producing the sensation of violet. Thus an object which absorbs all light waves except the very long ones will appear red, while one which ab sorbs all except the very short ones will appear violet. A black object is one which absorbs nearly all of the light waves reaching its surface and hence produces no sensation of color. Important Meeting Farmers at Pomaria A meeting of interest to the far mers of this section will be held in the school auditorium, Tuesday 8:30 p. m., March 17.
