portance of these words, the great duty of all American citizens, who desire to see America grow as she has done, is in the responsibility resting upon them all, to perpetuate and transmit, the free institutions that have made this fair land the repository of liberty and independence. Therefore let us take for our slogan, for all time to come, the words of Virginia's favorite son, Patrick Henry, "Give us liberty or give us death"

 Much interest was manifested in the double-handed drilling contest in front oe the pavilion for a purse of S25O. and many side bets. There were five teams in the contest, all of which did splendid work, and showed wonder ful skill and endurance, so much so, one wanted to See all win the money. The prize was won by Miller and Dem nison who drilled ? ] inches in fif- teen minutes, which considering the hardness of the rock used, was going some.
 The baseball game, between Pata- gonia and Nogales, after the third inning, was unanimously decided in favor of the visitors, not because they were the best players, but-just be- cause Patagonia didn't want the money, CT because Captain A. D. Page, who is the popular, efficient peace officer of Patagonia precinct, didn't want to make his old Nogales friends feel bad

school spirit which brings out the
most satisfactory results"
The resignation Of Superintendent
Wells, who retires after two years Of
notably successful work at the head
OF the Amarillo schools, marks the re-
firing OF one Of the best known and
most successful school men OF Texas.
For seventeen years he has been in
the schools Of north and west Texas
as teacher and as principal and 1t Ia
a matter of proper pride to him that
in every case he hasbeen offered the
changing to what no considered
better position in other towns.
School Expansion Needed.
During the year just ended over
/ 100 children have been enrolled in
the various city schools and the en-
rollment next year will be much
larger. Nine cen teachers were ems
ployed at the close OF the session
in addition to the superintendent.
Several of these teachers were added
during the year TO make provision
for the rapid increase instudents and
at the close additional teachers wera
needle. Mex year superintendent
Wells estimates that at least four
new teachers will be needed and at
least one new building will be necA
essary. North OF the Denver, by a
fortunate purchase before the present
rapid growth of the city began, the
city acquired block and a half Of
ground for school purposes and II Is
now planned to give the north side
a large ward school building on this
ground. Then the present frame
building there could be moved east
OF the Pecos valley where there Is
already need for 1t. Bonds for these
proposed extensions can be issued
without any increase in the tax rate
and the tax receipts next year will
be ample for the needs OF the va
rious schools,

THE FUTURE

Amarillo Schools Have Big
Opportunities and Are
Realizing Them

At the meeting OF the school board
Saturday afternoon all the old teach
ers, except one, in the city schools
were elected to their places on the
faculty. Mrs. w, NJ. Green was not
an applicant for reelection and her
place is yet to be filled. The place
Of superintendent made vacant by
the resignation OF Superintendent L..
A. Wells, is not yet filled and sew
eral applicants are under advisement
for the position. A meeting will be
held this week to act upon applica-
tons for additional positions and to
determine several matters OF pro-
posed extensions to the schools.
Bright Future for Amarillo Schools.

intendent Wells this morning in
speaking Of the school situation here,
chat any schools can have. The
wonderful growth of the town, the
character OF the people, and the un-
divided interest In the schools make
1t possible to build school system
here that will not only be the peer
OF any in the state but will stand
among the schools of the Southwest
as an example OF successful organi-
cation. If did not now have other
interests which will engage my at
tention, | could ask for no finer or
more attractive work than being in
these schools for at least the next
few years and seeing the unfolding
of our plans and the development Of
the great opportunities here.
Teaching has been a part of my
life so long that l am finding 1t
very difficult to leave the work. |
love the work anl whatever else
may engage in as my business, will
always have a keen interest in
the schools and school affairs.
81 wish to give the highest credit
to the teachers in the Amarillo
schools who have worked with me
in the two years that / have been
here. Amarillo schools are singular
ly free from politics" religion"
and other differences which make
petty jealousles in too many towns.
