The consolidated ticket office has
greater significance to the city than
the ordinary observer may imagine"
said H D. McGregOr. Business, as
every one knows, is what makes a
city, and business is conducted by
people Consequently it is necessary
that people with business motives
travel TO and fro. The ticket business
last month amounted to $500, 900. 1t

last Taking into consideration the
fact that this office speaks OF the
progress Of Fl Paso, the future Of the
city looks promising.
THE view obtained OF this matter,
from this office. is quite a psyche
logical one Reports are coming from
the American front that are filling
the American people with confidence
They are looking for speedy end to
