THE SOLUTION One of the men spoke: "I dug this hole where I was told to and began to put the dirt back like I was supposed to. But all the dirt won't go back in. What'll I do?" For a long while the supervisor pondererd the problem. Then: "I have it! There is only one thing to do. You'll have to dig the hole deeper." PART OF HIS PLAN I find most help in trying to look on all interruptions and hinderances to work that one has planned out for one's self as discipline, trials, sent by God to help one against getting selfish over one's ifCeary.

Benfon Ford Wins In Pan- American Essay Conies Benton Ford, a seventh grade stu dent in the Grand Prairie publi school, won an eighth place awan in the Greater Texas and Pan American Exposition essay contest which was conducted by the Dalla Chamber of Commerce and sponsored by the Greater Texas and Pan-American Exposition. The announcement of his winning was received by The Texan Thursday morning. This is quite an honor for Benton who is a seventh grade student in our public school, when it is considered that he won out over the thousands of other school students scattered thruoghout the state. Benton is a son of Mr. and Mrs F.

M. Ford and was born in this city. He has been an efficient student since his entry just a few years ago. He passed his grade with honors and as a student in the seventh grade he is making an exceptionally good record. Mrs.

E. I. Height was in cliarge of the contest in the Grand Prairie school and students entering essays received credit for on English paper There were sixteen entries from the sixth and seventh grade in Granc Prairie. Following is Benton's winning essay: Why I Want to See the Greater Texas and Pan-American Exposition at Dallas. There are almost more reasons than I can name why I want to see this particular Exposition, but I think one of the most important is in the name itself a "Gala Celebration of Peace and Progress in the Americas." American people need to know much more about one their countries, their people, their history, their achievements, their trade relations.

In school we learn something of these, but I think a visit to the Exposition will teach me more of all this than I could learn from all the books I might study. Each of the Americas will have a cross-section of the best on exhibit at the Exposition, and as very few of us will ever have the money or the time to really go to each separate country for a visit, I will have the opportunity of a travel education at a minimum expense. The great Hall of Latin American Republics will contain colorful exhibits typical of Central and South America, where I can learn much about the lives, customs and products of our neighbor countries to the South. The Mexican Village will present a cross-section of Old Mexico, its beauty, color and glamour. The stately United States Government building will have extensive exhibits valued at several million dollars, from which I can learn of what our own government is doing for us.

Our own Texas State building will have many historical exhibits, about which I have studied. Music and art of these countries will be shown some old and wonderful, some new, gay, strange and different from the things we have been accustomed to. The Exposition will not be educational and cultural alone there will be many gay, thrilling amusements and entertainment features not to be seen elsewhere. I especially want to see the "Cavalcade of Americas," which will be a dramatic presentation of the history of the three Americas. We certainly ought to know our own State and neighbors to the South, and by my visits to the Exposition I expect to become a oetter informed and more fully educated persons, and better prepare myself for any business opportunities with these countries that may come my way later in life.

I will also have the opportunity of learning more of our agricultural, animal husbandry and mineral resources. A visit to the Exposition will give us an. opportunity to know something of the lives and customs of our neighbors to the South and for them to know more about us, thereby creating a mutual friendship and understanding that will tend to eliminate possibilities of discord and distrust that is so evident in Europe. HOPE Ah, what thoughtful, loving provision God has made for us in the gift of the angle of hope! There is no path so dark but we may see the glimmer of her shining wings, no misfortune so heavy but her helpful hand is outstretched to us, and her smile still ready to cheer and encourage Selected.

He left last Saturday with his son Clifford Green and family of Dallas and Lloyd Green of this city.

Sometimes Sun Baths Are Pursued to Over-Exposure Says Health Officer Cox "One of the striking examples of over working a good thing is the enthusiasm displayed by thousands of persons in trying to secure a sun tan too quickly. Under a misguided conception of the sun's health giving power, such persons either deliberately or thoughtlessly submit their unprotected faces, backs and painfully, sometimes seriously, as a consequence," comments Dr. Geo. W.

Cox, State Health Officer. "The discomfort and annoyance of even mild sunburn should deter people from repeating this folly from year to year. especially where younger persons are concerned, the enthusiasm for fun and the desire to become speedily tanned are likely to exact the inevitable price with painful regularity. "It is one thing to apply the prin- ciples of sun treatment scientifically and quite another one to place the tender skin unrestrainedly under the direct rays of the sun. It should be unedrstood that when the sun is employed as treatment patients are exposed but a few minutes at a time, the periods being gradually extended as the tanning develops.

"The uninformed and the thoughtless, on the other hand, give the sun free rein, submit themselves frequently to hours of continuous exposure and naturally reap misery and illness as a direct consequence. "Before becoming too ardent over sunbathing, one would do well to ponder that many a vacation or week-end excursion has been ruined solely because the blistering and illness-producing power of the sun's rays upon the tender skin was insufficiently appreciated."
