Gasconade County Republican "We Do Our Part Toward Making This a Better Community in Which To Live" Volume 32, Number 46. OWENSVILLE, MISSOURI, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1935. WE'LL TELL THE "AM I AFRAID?" Am I afraid T I will admit I am; Afraid to Judge my fellows or to damn A man or woman; or to speak A scornful word to creatures weak Who faint and tall along the way. For who am I that I should say The path or road that he and you Should travel! It's a Job for any man To keep himself upspotted. He who can. Walk proudly through this world with head held high And boldly look the whole world in the eye And keep himself and children on the narrow way Has little time to Judge his fellows or to say An unkind word. God give me Btrength to live each day To lift and Berve along the way. To hate the the crime, but love the man To do the very best I can To try to live the life that He Exemplified on earth for me. By Grant Utley We do not know what the theme of the address made to the farmers by President Roosevelt at Omaha last week was meant to be but Judging from the newspaper headlines it should have been "Bought and Paid For." Old man Frost fooled us as well as a great many other residents of the county. Little did we or they expect a killing frost on Thursday night but he came anyway, out of a clear sky. And such a "choosy" frost. In some places everything was black Friday morning while in others, only a few leaves on a part of the vegetation was touched. As usual, the bottom land were hit hardest. " "l Traveling all over the U. S., Chester Gray, Vernon county farmer, and legislative agent for the American Farm Bureau Federation, spent some time on the home farm recently. To a Nevada, Mo., Herald editor, Mr. Gray asserted he found "an almost universal nervousness among farmers about payday. I hear many of them say somebody is going to have the - bill to pay, and they fear somebody besides the rich Is going to be soaked when the time comes." Mr. Gray adds the chief fear appears to concern a federal sales tax which will make everything farmers now buy even higher. Missouri Rurallst. According to data released Friday by Dwight H. Brown, Secretary of State of Missouri, it is estimated that automobile fatalities in the United States during the first eight months of 1935 totaled 19,833, compared with 20,411 in the same period of last year, a decline of 578, or 2.83 per cent. In Missouri for the first seven months of the year there were 453 fatalities In 1935 compared with 491 for the same period, in 1934. Mussolini has started his war against Ethiopia. Among the first dispatches are those stating that he used his bombing planes against defenseless women and children. He may win the war, probably will, but we doubt if the opinion of the world will give him much honor for it! We don't know ho-v to describe the situation but the two strongest Democratic exchange papers we receive; papers that laud every move of the present administration and tell all about prosperity are also the two papers that carry more Trustee' Salea, Mortgagee's Sales and Sheriff's Sales than all the other exchange papers we receive put together! Last week one of them had ten such sale and the other had eleven of them. Whether little piggies shall live or die will be decided In a Corn-Hog Control referendum vote called for October 21 by Secretary Wal lace. Do all the good you can as you roll along. Life Is a on way street and you're not coming back. THIRTY YEARS AGO Sale of a franchise for the right to construct and operate a light plant in Owensvllle was advertised for October 28. Geo.
