HANDS WOULD
BURN LIKE FIRE
Could Lay Pin in Cracks. Four Long
Years of Eczema. Only Reliefin
Scratching. Used One Set
Of CutiCura Remedies.
Hands Entirely Well.

"I can truthfully say Cuticura Rene
dies have. cured me Of four long years
Of eczema. About four years ago 1
noticed some little pimples coming on
my little finger, and not giving it any
attention, it soon became worse and
spread all over my hands. If 1 would
have them in water for long time,
they would burn like fire and large
cracks would come. l could lay a pin
in them. After using all the salves I
could think Of, went to three different
doctors, but all did me no good. The
only relief l got was scratching.
So after hearing so much about the
wonderful Cuticura Remedies, / pur-
chased one complete set, and after using
them three days my hands were much
better. To-day my hands are entirely
well, one set being all l used" (Signed)
Miss Eta Narber, r. F. d. 2, Spring
Lake, Mich, Sept. 20, 1910.
No stronger evidence than this could
be given Of the success and economy Of
the Cuticura Remedies in the treatment
Of torturing, disfguring humors of the
skin. A single hot bath with Cuticura
Soap and a gentle anointing with Cuti-
cura Ointment are often sufficient to
afford immediate relief in the most dis
tressing cases and permit rest and sleep
when all else fails. Cuticura Soap and
Ointment are equally effective in pre-
serving, purifying and beautifying the
skin, scalp, hair and hands.
Although Cuticura Soap (25c.) and
Cuticura Ointment (50c.) are sold
throughout the world, a liberal sample
of each, with 32-p. book on the skin and
scalp, viii be mailed free on application
to Potter Drug d Chem. Corp, Dept.

A GENERAL APPEAL FOR HARMONY WITH PATRONS
About Four Hundred Patrons Were Present and Added This Number
was About Six Hundred Pupils Lubbock has Fine School
and Her People are Cad

Of the occasion and all made good
suggestions, backed with
promises of help.
There will be over six hundred
pupils in the two schools of this
city at this session and it was
found expedient to use the high
school and also the ward school
building.
BY doing this the children are
not crowded and better results
will accure.
The board of trustees have
made wise selections in their
choice Of teachers and il is safe
to say that this will be one Of the
best terms that this city has ever
enjoyed.
One of the foremost features
of Lubbock county is the great
interest shown in behalf of edu-
cation. The people of this part
Of the country are all of one blood
and 1t makes for general better
ment.
There is also many other
attractive features, one of which
is the high dry climate, which
makes for good health all the
year round. 1t is seldom that
one hears of a case of sickness
and it would be hard 10 find
more desirable place in the south
west for the PRONUNCIATION of
school work.

Miss Eva Wheelock. Next was
a prayer by Elder Lift Sanders.
who was followed with an address
bv Judge Geo. K. Bean.
Jno. w. Baker came next with
an address and he was followed
by Judge Jno. K. Robinson. At
the conclusion of Judge Robinsons
address the assemblage listened
TO an address by the Superinten-
dent, j. X Wester.
Every address delivered on
this occasion breathed a spirit Of
cooperation on the part of
parents and teachers and il was
an inspiring time.
At the conclusion Of Prof.
Wester's address he called on all
those present to address the
school and this invitation was
to by Judge Jno. r.
McGee, Rev. Jno. A. Arbuckle.

venlently placed near the far
grounds for the sleeping accom-

Other features suggested were
that the Lubbock delegation have
special uniforms for this trip and
that arrangements be made for a
band.
Taken as a whole there has
never been a time when such a
venture could be more success

would be beneficial for years to
come.
The Santa Fe railroad has lately
decided 10 inaugurate an eXten-
sive advertising campaign with

now that they show a willingness
TO cooperate with the Plains peo-
pie ii would be a very propitious
season for the Lubbock people 10
