REV. H. G. HAITHCOX MAKES
SOME RECENT OBSERVATIONS

In 1894, in September heat and
dust, first saw Abilene drouth-
smitten, boom-busted Abilene. Even
G. e. Rugh Esq. could not find a
watermelon to Quench sweltering
pilgrims thirst.
In 1914 came to Abilene again.
Though the long drouth of 1913
(alas for 1919 had tried her ardor
and disciplined her faith, she sits
like a beautiful queen on prairie
throne laughing at bygones and
brayely looking for the realization
of hopes that linger and lure on to
future achievements. With her
newly paved streets, her numerous
and beautiful stores and banks, her
increased number OF pretty modern
homes, with her public school
buildings, town hall and library she
Is hard to surpass anywhere. We
were glad to walk her streets once
more and see so many evidences OF
her industry and enterprise. Twen-
ty years ago she was psychological
and ethical, now she seems to be
ifidustriously, commercially, evan
gelistically religious. Her churches
have been enlarged with modern
adaptations and her schools seem
equal to the best, as she is waking
up to the fact that her girls and
boys are her most valuable asset.
But moral reform methods without
anchorage in God will be futile.
Gratefully,
H. G. HAITHC0X.

J. p. CAMPBELL WANTS A
TWO STORY SCHOOL HOUSE

Editor Reflector: Many people on
the south side have asked me to
write the following:
Now that the school bonds have
been carried $4,000 is ample TO
build a fine school building. 1t
should be two stories. No architect
can design one story structure,
with two rooms on the south, two
north of them, and ventilate the
north rooms in warm weather when

especially crowded school rooms.
Ask the gentleman building the
postoffice, he is an experienced
builder. He will tell you that that
kind OF building would be fail

and cities, two story school build
ings nave been the thing. "A one
story building would be modern"

High school Vote

The proposition to issue $4,000
bonds to be used in building 317.-
600 grade school building on the
south side on the site OF the Lin
coin building carried in yesterdays
election by majority Of 2O4. all
Of the wards returning a majority
for the proposition.
The proposition; Are you in favor
Of q new building for high school
purposes, lost by majority OF So
votes, the fourth ward being the
only ward giving a majority in ia
yor of the building.
II was thought that some opposi-
ton In the first ward to the plans
proposed for the new south side
building would result in a larger
vote against the bonds than the
final count showed. The first ward
returned the largest majority for
the building.
The high school proposition car
ried in the fourth ward by four
votes, the only majority ward vote
In the first and second wards the
vote was overwhelmingly against
the high school.
/. The vote was light in all wards.
In the grade school election 542
votes were cast; in the high school
election $50, a difference of 10
votes. Approximately 1000 persons
in Abilene were eligible to vote at
yesterdays election, exclusive OF
the attached territory, SO the
judges had an easy time, and count
ing the votes required little time.
The vote on both propositions was
uncertain for a time, although 1t
was believed that the vote against
the high school would be large
enough to defeat it. The first and
second wards. which gave the. larg-
est majorities for the bonds, were
the last to be heard from and until
the returns came in from those dis
tricts the bonds had only AZ votes
majority.
