There is a well-grounded
faith that at some date in The
near future our town with its
natural healthtul location
which in some respects is far
ahead of our neigh bors-will be
the natural resort mach sought
after by a corps Of specialists
who will erect 4 modern sana
forum for the purpose of fight
ing the ravages of dreaded con
sumption. In the eXhauStless
catalogue of Heavens mercies
to afflicted mankind, the fact
that we have some grains of
comfort in the most advanced
stages of this horrible disease
must occupy the foremost place.
That climatic conditions affect
and Oftentimes relieves sufferers
is an indisputable fact, which
truth is admitted by all medical
science. That this climate on
the Plains is particularly hene-
fetal to those afflicted with
lung trouble, is fast gaining
power in the minds of those
who are in a position to know.
If the Plains get sanatorium
Canyon City would naturally
come in for first consultation.

There are two ways to clean
up a city. One is the St. Louis
method, and the other way Is
for the people to clean it them
selves.-Plainview Press.
The latter plan appears to US
to be the safest. Whether free
ing a city or town from filth
and dirt or moral dehlement, we
believe it the better plan in
most instances to accept the ar
gument of the latter. The st.
Louis food method is no doubt
the most effective plan to free
the over-burdened mind of NOR
al berratiOn, to one that be
Iieves a dead man is always 4
good man. But then after all
of these opinions there are those
of US that would rather do the
cleaning ourselves and then we
are better prepared for the St,
Louis method

Prosperity lets go the Bride

Quanah last Saturday voted

addition on their school build

handle towns are all pushed to
the limit to keep up with school
facilities so rapidly are they
growing. Hall County Herald.
Yes. it is an appreciative fact
that most towns in the Panhan-
die are looking to improved ed
ucational advantages first, last
and all the time. a town that
desires to excel, should endeav-
or it in those things that are IN
themselves most excellent. This
is a most pleasant feature to the
growth OF Panhandle towns and
the pace set for the standard OF
excellence makes Improvement
compulsory with towns apt to
neglect this important feature
in the growth of new towns.
people seldom improve, when
they have no other model but
themselves to copy
Canyon City will soon fall in
line with a magnificent school
building, not that she has sui
fered imperfections in education
al work, but like her sisters,
timely advice has cast its
shadows before and demon
strated the necessity of prepar-
ing for the future, which also
reiterates that the knowledge
of our duties is the most useful
part Of philosophy.
