Good For The Plains

We have had rains on top of
rains throughout this section of
the state lately and the prospects
for a bumper crop Of small grain
was never better One good
crop of various kinds will do
more to develop this part Of the
country than anything that
could possibly happen. If the
farmers will take advantage Of
the present situation 10 plant
large crops they will not only be
directly benefited, but will be
adding 10 the general welfare
Of things at the same time. 1t
is an accepted fact that the
Plains must be developed. 1t
seems plausible TO a casual OBJ
server that those who have in
terests here would do well 20
keep abreast Of the needs of the
hour and Ieayc no stone untun-
ed that win help in the work.
You might write TO your friends
and tell them Of the good things
we are developing out this way.

An tye Opener

On Saturday evening Last the
writer got his wires crossed with
the result that he went TO the
Lubbock Sanitarium expecting
to be present at an operation of
a friend. The operation was
going on all right but the party
was a stranger. We did not eX-
pect TO get beyond the front
door and was of course muchly
surprised to receive cordial in
vitation to come into the operat-
ing room. We have been present
on many occasions of this char
acter in the larger cities and it
is a pleasure TO know that right
here in the town of Lubbock we
have an institution as fully
equipped for this class Of work
as one may find in the city. We
have never come in contact with
more congenial surroundings
and it is a pleasure 10 tell it to
the outside world. The ability
manifest on this occasion could
not be mistaken. 1t was all
sufficient. This is not an ad,
far from it. We only wish we
dared tell as much as we would
like to but approaching the fact
that those who have charge of
this institution are stcklers for
the ethics Of the profession we
will only ad that the Lubbock
Sanitarium has our hearty in
dorsement and with age it will
develop into one Of the leading
institutions of its kind in the
state. 1t is a recognized fact
that Lubbock numbers among
her physicians some Of the lead
ing practitioners in the south.
Encourage them 10 remain By
giving them your patronage.

People seem 10 have peculiar
ideas about what a preacher
should be and do. This feeling
was 20 doubt engendered by the
thought that a preacher is called
of God TO do specific work,
They therefore delight to think
of him as being made TO fit into a
particular groove or mould and
that outside the circumscribed
limits Of his activity he is an in
truder. ! raise the question, do
we deal square" with the
preacher? If a lawyer or doctor,
or merchants walks down the
aisle of the church on Sunday
morning and unites with the
church and consecrates himself
TO the service Of God, and be-
comes active in the life of the
church, do we say that such is
out of his sphere? No, we say
just the opposite. We are all glad
when the lawyer or the doctor or
the merchant or any other man,
as to that, decides to join the
church and consecrate his seryic-
es unto the Lord. When these
same classes Of men take an ac-
tive part in politics, civic right
eousness, and the general i'm.
provement Of conditions, we
think that they are Just doing
what they should do. And they
are. But you let a minister Of
the gospel take an active part in
such things and the people cry
too much politics, he had bet
ter be attending to his business.
The preacher has as much right
to have a say in the realm of the
political as the lawyer, doctor or
merchant or any other man. II
is the devil that does not want
preachers TO have anything to do
with the political situation. He
knows that some changes that
might be very detrimental 90 his
business would perchance be
made if the preacher began o.
dabble IN politics. Il was largely
through the influence OF preach
ers that that terrible para .te,
the Louisiana lottery, was driven
from sunny Louisiana.
Who is a better Judge of the
kind of men who should occupy
the offices Of the municipality the
county and the state than the
man whose business it is 90 study
mem
When the preachers enter poll
ties at the front door, something
will go out the back door that
should have departed long ago.
Preachers, don't let the devil
and a few Of his back bJneless
advocates" deter you from doing
your whole duty toward your
church. your state and nation.

Consistency

If all the patrons of the Ava

their relationship toward the
paper as the paper is toward the
development of this section Of
the country it would be simply
fine, 10 say the least of IT, The
Avalanche devotes its entire
time and attention 30 the up
building Of the Lubbock country,
and it is expected 20 do so, yet
when something crecps into us
columns that does not suit the
fancy Of some moss back he in
yariabIy hys of the handle and
withdraws his patronage from
the paper.
The Avalanche is not void of
feelings and many things occur
within It's scope Of vision that
does not please the Management
yet the paper goes on in the
even tenor OF its way. preaching
the gospel of a bigger and better
Lubbock country.
Let's all work together for
the common good. We are but
one big family and we should
give and take. 1t should be the
purpose Of everybody in this
section 20 help the entire coun-
try. DO not let some petty
crouch come into your life and
cause you % crawl backwards.
Those who stick TO the Avalan-

long run. BE consistent in your
daily efforts and keep digging
