The editor stood in the rotunda
of the Post Office one afternoon
this week and listened to some
of the conversations which took
place among some of the boys of
this city, and even as tough as
the editor is and as well ac-
quainted with various slang and
rough words he was actually
shocked at the language used by
these boys. And they seemed
to be careless of the point as to
whether or not other persons
heard them. We have some boys
in this town that will have some
thing to happen to them some of
these days. Is it your boy?

Christmas is time of joyful
celebration among all the Christ
ian people of the world, a time
when everyone lays aside the
cares of business and enters into
the abandonment of happiness.
We are glad that such a day has
been set aside not only because
it celebrates the birth of the
Savior, but also because of the
universal tendency of every per-
son to try and be thoroughly
happy for a short time at least.
It's a stingy man indeed who
cannot be happy in those days of
joy.

The people of Randall county
deserve the very best that can
be had in everything and partic-
ularly in the newspaper line and
therefore we have not any time
stood back in the matter of ex-
pense in giving them the very
best of everything that goes to
make a live local paper. This
week we are issuing Christmas
edition of the paper and we are
trying to get a copy of it into the
home of every citizen of the
county. If you know of a citizen
who did not get one, kindly send
us their name and we will try to
see that they do get it. We think
that the paper is a credit to
many a city which makes larger
pretentions than does our city.

was started for the establish
ment Of a rural free delivery
from this city running west to
the county line, thence south
two or three miles and back into
the city. The matter was held
up pending the opening of two
miles of new road. Arrange
ments were made in this city
last Saturday for this road to
be opened by the first of the
year and it is expected that the
new rural route will be estab-
lished by the first of February.
This will be the first rural free
delivery in the Panhandle which
shows to rapid increase in the

THE TEXAS PANHANDLE

To the Panhandle country my friend, why not go:
Where the cool breeze Of summer refreshing and grand
Fans the brow of the maid and the aboring
Where water is pure the dew-drops that lie
And sparkle in sunlight beneath the clear sky,
Is found in abundance, and, thanks to man s skill
Is ped to the earth by the clever windmill.
Where the country lies eve-rch fertile and good
That the rainfall is ample is we'll understood
Where the buffalo grass the friend of the beast
Is yielding its place to the grain of the east.
Where rye and barley Milo maize and wheat
And fruits of the orchard, the world cannot beat;
Where products of gardens and melons compare
With those exhibit at grand county fair.
Where cattle and horses in pastures grow sleek,
And Sheep hogs and poultry of them must speak,
Are all grown with profit and but little palms.
By the farmer and ranchman the great Texas Plains
Where people are prosperous and live at their ease,
Enjoying climate that S free from disease
Pure air and pure water and bright sunny skys;
One glance at the country will open your eyes.
Where land is cheap but will remain,
AS hundreds coming on homeseekers trains;
They buying for homes, for comfort and health,
Advance in investment alone will bring wealth.
My friends, take advice-Secure good thing;
A home in the Panhandle is fit for king
Buy while you can-you will find out in time
The truth simply stated in this little rhyme
