THE TULIA AVALANCHE

Mondays mail brought us a
copy of the Tulia Avalanche, the
new newspaper venture IN Tulia,
the county seat of Swisher
County. This town has
been the seat of much news
paper turmoil the past few
months, and a number of re-
mains have been laid peacefully
away in the Newspaper Gene
terry in that vicinity. We thought
at first we would wait a few
days and see if the youngster
was goingsto live before placing
its name on the register OF our
exchanges, but we will risk it
again. We are placing it among
our most cherished exchanges
and hope it will be permitted to
remain on our list long enough
for US to become accustom-
ed to the wrapper that il comes
in. We know them all, and its
appearance this week was made
noticeable by the unfamiliarity
of the hand write and the color
of the wrapper. II is published
by Webster and Knight and we
wish tor them success.

AVALANCHE SNAP SHOTS

An inactive commercial club
is great drawback to a city.
No club at all is just as bad.
How about a commercial club
in Lubbock?
The prosperity of a community
is reflected through results OBJ
tanned by cooperation. This
has been proven by the COOP
erative spirit in Lubbock people.
Dead men tell no tales but
slumbering people are sometimes
great takers. de.awakes are
better than either.
Financial assistance is usually
a cold proposition with both the
giver ant the recipient.
Cement sideu alks, nice brick
buildings and lighted streets are
standing testimonials to the pro-
gressiveness of the citizenship.
Let's have more of all of them.
You can sometimes progress
more rapidly by standing still
than by running around in a
circle, but where a fellow goes
right ahead like Lubbock people
there is something doing all the
time. Come to Lubbock.
Opportunity sometimes STUN
bles on the door mat and even
then is overlooked or unheard.
How many times has this indi-
vidual stumbled on the door mat
of Miss Lubbock and she has
failed to hear the peculiar sound.
There is absolutely no gamble
in city building when you have
the cooperation of the entire
citizenship. Come to Lubbock,
buy property here and you have
a cinch that you will sometime
in the near future get good re-
turns from the investment. and
il won't be boom money either.
A blind man sometimes has
better eyesight tnan a wide.
awake citizen who lets a good
opportunity go past.
A commercial club, like a
human being, should have but
one life to live and that exist
ance should be expressed every
minute. The Lubbock Com
mercial Club has as many
lives as a cat, or more.
There is no limit to city devel-
opment. The only stumbling
block is sometimes the mental
limit of the citizens.
Good business men make big
cities for they can generally
grasp the opportunities to be
gained through progress and de.

NOT THAT WAY IN MY BOOK

One of our Socialist friends
was looking over the election
returns in the Dallas News the
other day and being disappointed
in the showing made by the
party. he doubted the correct
ness of the report and said that
he would wait to see what the
Appeal to Reason and the Rebel
say. Another Socialist refused
to believe that Editor Wayland
had committed suicide until he
saw it told in his party papers. r

of a subject in school would
