American State Bank
Desires To Be A
Home Bank

Every business mar or woman
have their headquarters" where
they seem to feel more at home than
anywhere else. People from the
country are especially fond OF
making some particular place OF
business their headquarters.
Now. there is nothing we like to
do more than to make our CUSTOM
ers and friends feel sat home" with
us. None of us are what the world
might call rich and we are conse-
quently just plain folks with a
desire to treat our fellow man as
an equal. At the same time, we
try to be business-like and handle
the affairs of our customers In a
manner that will be perfectly
satisfactory to them.
A farmer knows a whole lot
more about farming than a bank
man and bank man understands
banking better than a farmer, but
we desire to learn more about farm
ing and to teach the farmer more
of banking principles and rules. In
other words, we want to co-ope-
rate with the farmer and the me-
chanic as we'll as those of every
other trade and profession with a
view to charging our knowledge
as we'll asto give them a better
understanding of banking.
We wish to encourage "savlng"
for investment and for emergen-
cies. Our fast growing Saving
Department is an evidence that we
are making progress in this dlrec-
ton and it is pleasing to US.
We are always ready to assist IN
making transfersof money from
one point to another free of charge
aid to attend to private business OF
our customers. Our vault is large
and we are glad to keep papers
and securities free of charge, or If
preferred, will rent one of our
steel, fre-proof deposit boxes at a
very small rental.
Our business is growing and we
are confident that it will continue
to grow so long as we pursue the
policies that we are now endeavor-
ing to follow.
If you are looking for ''Bank-
ing Home" we take pleasure in dl-
recting you to this bank and hope
to see you real soon and add your
name to our growing list of custo-
mers. You are welcome at

Wished that the past could rise.
Sorrowed that trust. and faith

Blessings.

It's what 1 thank God for each night
A little cabin that's mine by right
The strength OF a man for work or fight
And food and light.
It's what thank God for each day
A wife with never too much to say:
A wife, dog, an a child for play.
For those ia pray.
I thank God for the land l tread
A pipe to smoke, and an easy bed,
The thatch I made that's DER my head,
And daily bread.
I thank God for an Irish name,
And a son OF mine to bear the same.

No more I'd claim.

The Changed Hills.

The hills on which the cattle grazed
Are strange today unto my eyes:
The plough has severed as a sword
All the appealing, olden ties;
The apple trees are blossoming-
I see their promise cleaning there.
And smell their perfume. heavy. sweet
Where once the wild sage filled the air.
The hills on which the cattle grazed
Were once the backgrounds where men,
Far from the haunts OF womankind.
Won or were beaten-iife throbbed then
With meanings all unknown today.
Where once the roundup campfire blaZed
The ranch light shines like star upon
The hills on which the cattle grazed.

az Love Were Always Laughter"

II love were always laughter
And grief were always tears,
With nothing to come after
To mark tho waiting years.
ia pray a life of love TO you,
sent down from heaven above TO you,
And never grief come near TO you,
To spread its shadow, dear, 10 you
II love were always laughter
And grief were always tears.
But grief brings often laughter.
And love. all. love brings tears;
And both leave ever after
Their blessings on the years;
So 1, dear heart, would sue for you,
A mingling OF the two for you,
That grief may lend its calm to you,
And love may send its balm TO you
For grief brings often laughter
And love brings often tears.

In stringing beads
All in a fancy row:
At writing he's deficient.

But ahi he knows
Each flower that grows.
SO what care we for that
In mathematics Johnny
Is hardly any good.
But he can knit
A wooden mitt
As well as granma could.

Or date in history,
But hip hooray.
His blocks of clay
Are beautiful TO see.
Before he's graduated
An awful lot he'll know.
And he can turn
The things he'll learn
To profit-maybe so:
But yet, somehow or other.
Before he quits, we hope.
He'll learn enough
old fashioned stuff
To drown this modern dope"

And an array OF shopworn arts.

And ev'ry sort OF faded wiles.
He's doing very well indeed,
For he supplies a long-felt need:

The Lubbock avalanche. (Lubbock, Tex.) 1909-1922, 1912-02-29
RAIN LAST SATURDAY
Ground is Wet TO the Bottom, Es-
pecialIy Where il Had
Been Broken Previously.

The South Plains country is
blessed with probably the best
season that it has ever had al
this season of the year. or to say
the least of it for many years.
There has been more or less
snow and rain all the winter.
The ground has been frozen
deeper this winter than for
years. and the pores of the soil
have been opened up and the
moisture has gone deeper than
ordinarily. which insures a good
bottom season for spring.
Many Of farmers had quite a
good deal of their land turned
before the rain Saturday and
Sunday and they tell us that
their farms are boggy yet from
the result of the rains Of these
dates.
A large acreage of sod land
had also been broken before the
rain, and much more will be
turned when the condition of the
ground will permit.
The range conditions are good
too. While there are some losses
reported on the large ranches.
where the stock have not been
taken as good care of as they
should, but ordinarily speaking.
livestock conditions are very
favorable in this section Of the
With the season that
we have in the ground at this
lime insure early weeds and
grass. Warm weather will bring |
'or.h a luxurant growth and |
within few weeks there will be |
10 more need for feed in the

All things considered, the

FIRE MONDAY NIGHT
Residence of Mrs, W. {. Penney
Destroyed at Eleven O'clock
Last Monday Night

Monday night at about half
passed the eleven O'Clock hour
the alarm of fire was given by
the rapid firing OF pistols and
the big whistle blowing at the
light plant, and it was noticed
that the fire was in the resi-
dence of Mrs. w. +. Penney.
IN the south part of town.
When the fire was discovered
first it had gained considerable
head way, and before anyone
could arrive on the scene the
entire building was enveloped in
flames and all chances to save
the building or any of the con-
tents was beyond human power.
No one was at home at the
time. and had not been since
the Sunday morning previous.
Mrs. Penney and her daughter
in-law, Mrs. John Penney had
been at Tahoka. several days
visiting and John was not stay
ing at home at the time. but was
at his brothers home. Joe PEN
ney, several blocks awsy.
The origin Of fire Is q mystery
that will likely never be kown
as there had not been any fire
in the building for several days.
The building and contents
were well insured, we under
stand. and the loss will not
fall so heavily on the family
As was at first feared. We un-
ierstand that a new building
will be erected at once on the
DID site. Mrs. Penney and the
occupants Of the building, have
he sympathy OF the entire COM
nunity. for there are always sr-
icles lost in the burning of a
'esidence building that money
will not replace.
