Said The Commissioner Of Alpine to the Mayor of Marfa: Marfa-Alpine rivalry this week extended to include a limited debate about the water supplies of the respective cities. The debate reached the public when W. E. Lockhart, Alpine City Commissioner, sent a letter to Mayor Coffield, a copy of which was also submitted to the Big Bend Sentinel. The letter, wagered that Alpine pumped more water during June than did Marfa. The debate ended very suddenly when Mayor Coffield replied immediately showing that Marfa, a past year, given by Mr. Knight, —Huge bell near taber- smaller city, pumps substantially Mr. Shearer and Robert A Hump- n o d e a t P a i s a n o B a p t i s t more than our neighboring city.

TENNESSfE J Read 1 Timothy 6:IS I have learned, in whatever state I arti, to be content. (Philipplans 4:11, RSV.) One of the rewards of a proper adjustment to life is the attainl ment of patience. One man who | claimed this spiritual heritage for I himself was the Apostle Paul, who is really the Job of the New Testament. During his ministry he suffered inner turmoil, frustration, fatigue, starvation, shipwreck, beatings, and Imprisonment. Insead of being broken in spirit, Paul rose above adversity. From a prison cell in Rome, he found himself able to write, "I hove learned .... to be content. Actually, what is patience? Is it not a word for complete trust in the goodness of God's will for our lives, whatever the circumstances in which we find ourselves? Paul said that the secret of his ability to face life was finding strength in Christ. Therein lies our success or failure. Contentment and patience in life come through getting ourselves in harmony with God's purpose. We accomplish this only* through the strength Christ gives us because of our faith in Him, PRAYER Our Father, teach us to seek for the possession of the things that really matter—Thy love and peace, the abundant life in Christ, and the reward of Christian service. In the Saviour's name we ask it. Amen. Frank R.

Mr. Rutherford placed the facts of the situation before the House of Representatives at its meeting July 16, and also wrote to General Agee, Commander of the Civil Air Patrol, asking that restitution be made to the Big Bend CAP. / Captain Crawford and local patrolmen, meeting Monday evening, said they hoped local contributions would eventually take up the slack in their finances. Some donations have been received, however more have come from a distance than locally, Kenneth Mellard, member of the squadron, said. Several contributions have been received from a distance from people who read in the papers of the search for Mrs. White. "People who have traveled in this area and said they appreciated the hospitality extended to them have sent us checks as a means of saying 'thank you' for courtesies received," Mr. Mellard said. Another check came from a seaeman who ships out of Houston, but had at one time lived in this area.
