J HAIL ULUI dUUIVIMILU
'here the present court Ik. use will
soon be too small for the amount
of b i -s that will occupy the
minds of ;iie various otlicers and
'a.-i-le Ironi this fact is the
, tfi'.iilu that oilier towns have
I line .str,.c i;r - of this nature
! and of course Lubbock must ko
thotn one better.
j (n.e coinmeudalile thin about
I the Lubbock way is found in
the fact that her eop!e made
; ample provisions for school fa
cilities before taking "P other
matters, and now that we have
settled the school building ques
tion for some time to come, it
is but natural that other matters
, of vital public interest should
come forward.
It might be well to add just
here, that the buildings, of a
public nature, should be cast
alone; lare lines. The Lubbock
of tho' future, will be a lare
town. It will be even larger
than the minds of the most
optimistic imagine. Let the
good work for Lubbock and her
territory continue. We are on
the firing line of all the good
things known to the man who
helps to build.
Sunday School Movement
A movement is now on foot in
Lublxick to increase the attend
ance of the several Sunday
Schools of the town. A commit
