FIJI The Special Train

Never since the name began to
stick to tho great Northwest part Of
Texas will so many Texas people
think Of about the Panhandle at the
same time as they will from Satur-
day to Monday next, Some Of them
may think OF the Panhandle for the
first time and all Of them will have
new idea of the resourCefuness
and vim Of the men and women who
are building a new commonwealth
out OF the plains, acquisitions con-
tinue to come in to j. II, Avery, NJ,
c, Raley, Frank A, White and Il. j.
Witt of the special train arrange
ment committee and there Is no
doubt that all of the long train now
ordered for the party will be filled
to overlooking with representative
and enthusiastic Panhandle people,
all out for a good time,
TcNiCO Wants "a Car.
Parties from TexIco wired up this
morning to reserve one solid car for
people from the twin cities on the
edge of the Panhandle. Texico and
Farwell people feel the same way
about the Panhandle Of Texas and
VIII incidentally let Ill be known
that the slice OF the plains which
projects over into eastern New Mex
leo is the kind that Is making the
Panhandle famous.
Hereford is lining up and although
appointment over the rates hurt
the plant there as 1t did for a time
IN Amarillo, there will be a consid-
cradle party Of the Panhandlers
whose special fondness is for "the
great Hereford country" Sheriff
Ed Council, of Hereford. was one
Of the first to buy the Five Million
club cap and badge outfits yesterday
and he declared his intention to get
crowd Of Hereford people in line
for the trip. j. Ray, former editor
of the Brand, was another visitor
here this morning who is enthusiastic
about the Panhandle party for the
trip.
Rates for Towns North.
Special Passenger Agent simmons,
OF the Denver, announced today, that
to enable people flbm Claiming,
Hartley and Dalhart on the north to
join the special train here, a rate OF
one fare for the round trip will be
offered allowing people from these
towns to come to Amarillo and get
tickets here for the special train.
Plans for the accommodation Of the
members OF the party on the special
train, for their meals en- route, and
for the schedule of the train on the
trip, have now been completely ar
ranged, and Passenger Agent Sim
mons can exhibit a big sheaf of cor
respondence as evidence of the care
with which the details have been
planned, The train, after leaving
here Friday night, will stop at
Claude, Clarendon, Memphis and
Chlldrcss and at each of these points
new members will join the party,
Breakfast will be ready for the party
when the train reaches Wichita Falls
at $50. No other stops are sched-
uled and the train will go into Fort
Worth without other additions.
Stopovcr In Fort Worth.
For an hour Saturday, or perhaps
a trifle more, the Panhandle will
pay respects to the Panther City,
and unless the indications are very
greatly deceiving, the Fort Worth
boosters who were the guests Of the
Panhandle last week will be on the
spot to strengthen the new ac-
quaintance and to convince by divers
methods the Panhandle of their err
ror in going through to Dallas in
stead of stopping in Fort Worth.
Many Ladies in the Party.
Already a number OF reservations
have been made for lady members
OF the party. Frank A. White has
set apart one entire Pullman for
ladies and whatever the rush may be
for places in other parts of the train,
he will see to it that every lady gets
suitable accommodations. Among

ready been made are; Mines, Frank
A. White, II. Joe Isaacs, H. II, Da-
