by , accepting the property at

no question about it. The board
may have the power to do SO,
but they have no moral right to
do it. II not only shows bad

themselves authority and over

The College was voted to Can
yon; by every element of hon
esty, decency and justice, they
are entitled to the only Baptist
College in the Panhandle.
The people of Canyon are
being out generated, are being
politically schemed out of that
to which by every principal of
right they are entitled. The
News has a right to kick, to
howl, to have fits, and to pile
lurid lightning and hell blasting

despoiling that fair and fated lit

A Word with Country Boys.

in the country should be thank

the country youth when he does
come under the influence of the
saloons and other evil resorts is
more susceptible to them and
yields more readily to them
than does the average city boy.
For some years the writer OF
this has spent several months
each year with country boys.
And it must be confessed that
there is as much, if not more,
profanity among the average
class of country boys than
among the same class of city
youth. And with beer and whis
key drinking the same applies
The reason for this is due, prob
ably, to the fact that the coun-
try youth holds the city
boy in high esteem as an exam.

because of his better attire and
more stylish clothing. The
country boy hears a we'll dress

swear and he at once emulates
the city boys example. He
sees the welldressed city youth
drink and he patterns after him,
and thinks it is smart. The
country boy probably sees more
of the disreputable side of city
life than he does of the moral
and purer side and because he
observes SO much of the evil
side he imagines that the evil
predominates, and in his blind.
ness he apes the city youth and
thinks it manly to do so; but he
never makes greater mistake
in his life. The writer has
heard more profanity among
country boys in proportion to
number than among city youth.
This is sad commentary upon
country youth, but it is true.
