A 1919 Whitewright publication notes subscription terms and renewal incentives while sharing observational humor about town life. It laments road conditions to Bonham, discusses housing needs, and comments on merchant activity, transport, and local economy with a mix of proverbs and satirical prompts.
Editor notes rising prices, vows not to raise The Sun beyond a dollar fifty, urges renewals before November 1. Columnists mock daylight saving, claim Dallas Fair press day a success or failure, discuss Sherman tracks and town expansion, and recall a loyal subscriber with cash.
The piece notes farmers paid subscriptions in trade in the past but now after settling fall bills they have cash for autos and more. It contrasts Whitewright Van Alstyne and Gunter, praises Van Alstyne influence, and humorously critiques town rivalries and editor Nash.
A small bottle of Freezone is inexpensive at drug stores. Apply a few drops to corns or calluses on the feet and lift them away. The process leaves the skin pink and healthy without soreness or irritation.
A promotional note extols Whitewright as a larger, more complete town than Van Alstyne. It claims Whitewright has more business and population and invites readers to visit Whitewright to see “what a really good town looks like.”
The Sherman Courier notes residents owe debt to Superintendent H L Durham for school affiliation with the State University and rising property values. It argues people forget teachers and preachers except in emergencies, urging appreciation and a nod to Sun ads.
