COLLEGE FRIENDSHIPS

To man or woman who expects
to live in Texas, there is great gain
in being educated In Texas. II gives
a knowledge of the States history OF
the Character Of It's people, OF the
condition of Its life that are neces-
sary to success In Texas. II gives
further wide acquaintance with the
best class of people from all over
the State that throughout life is an
unfalling source OF pleasure and
help. Since its foundation in 1888 a.
bout twelve thousand students have
attended the University of Texas. OF
whom over thirty three hundred have
taken degrees. Today, enrolled In its
various departments are over 1000
students.
In summing up the assets OF his
years In the University OF Texas one
of its alumni says:
"The last, but really the greatest
good derived from the University
course comes to the graduates all
through the remainder of their lives.
Every student has made many and
highly congonial friends during those
four years, and all through life they
are met with again. The old friends
are constant pleasure, and new ac-
quaintances are easily formed thru
the magic bonds that draw all alum
nj and ex-students Of the dear Al
ma Mater together. thus, no matter
what part of the State one goes to,
there is always to be found some old
Varsity students and common In
terest draws people together. "
And In similar vein, a man now
prominent In the states educational
work. writes:
81 think my greatest single pleas
ure, secured through University at
tendance is the thought that in every
town of any size in this State is some
congenial spirit, whose ideas are
akin to my own and that we develop
ed these ideals together as students
of the old L. of r.

scurry County Water

A Scurry county man recently in
writing back to his people In Cen
trail Texas estimated that Snyder has
more than five hundred wind mills
and he stated that with all this
draught upon the water fountains,
the supply dodsn't seem to be dimin-
ished 9.
There Is n point In that to show
that the Snyder country is especially
blessed on that line. Nobody seems
to ever think that the Scurry
county wells will go dry.
Windmills may run all day, week
in and week out. and still the wat
err keeps gushing out, pure, clear.
and sparkling
II is so all over the county One
gentleman came here FROM his old
State home. He said he dreaded
to lose the society of the good wells
and springs back there, but after
staying here awhile he got over that
feeling and frankly admitted that
the water here Is just as cold, as
palateable and as wholesome as any
he has ever used
a Scuryy county man just few
days ago said he had been travelling
recently in neighboring County and
the gyp water of that section almost
laid him out over there the people
have to go to the expense of build
ing cisterns they do not We
very seldom hear of person suffer
