One of the hardest-pressed is the little fawn who is the central character in Walt Disney's latest full-length feature, "Bambi." The fawn (Bambi) gets the toughest kind of competition from Thumper, an irrepressible rabbit; from Flower, a misnamed skunk, and from Old Man Owl, tage of the woods. Thumper seems tci know instinctively all the woodland lore Bambi has to learn th2 hard way, and while he is strictly comedy relief 'in the sometimes poignant story of the life of a young deer, it wouldn't surprising to see Thumper blossom out as a star in his own rig! it.

Only twenty one Texas companies out of more than five hundred, received the A. Plus Excellent rating.

Incidentally the Centennial Life was the only company in Texas outside the large cities, to receive same. The Centennial Life is twenty years old, having been organized by W. C. Francis in 1922. Recently Dr.

Laraoine Miller was added to the board of directors. He is Medical Director of Company. Mr. J. Johnson of Caviness, who lias been with the company for 18 years was made a director and Vice-President.

This figure includes more than one ride a man. As the war! progresses, Clark predicted, the carriers' job will become greater. "We are told," he said, "that the Army will reach four and a half million men by the end of the year, and this will mean from five to seven passenger movements for every man from the time of induction into service until departure from our shores for foreign duty." Clark attributed the sharp climb in rail passenger business largely to troop movements and the diversion of highway travel to the railroads because of the rubber shortage and gasoline rationing.

Passenger business in the first four months of 1942 was 88 per cent greater than in the corresponding period of 1939 and 44 per cent above the same period of 1941. In addition, he said, the railroads are doing "the greatest freight transportation job in their entire history." The divorce rate in the United States in 1940 was 2.0 per 1,000 nf population, exactly twice the rate in 1912.
