Three Signers Can Call
Special Election For y
Bond Issue at Liscomb

If only three voters, who voted at
the recent school election at Liscomb
sign a petition now being circulated
there. the three will call a special cleo
ton 10 vote on the proposal TO bond
the district TO furnish money to build
a school building. According TO infor-
nation from Liscomb the petition Is
being freely signed. altho only three
names are required TO force the school
board 20 call the election.
The law requires that the signatures
of % percent OF those who voted at
the Fast school election are sufficient
to call special election. As IL hap
pens, the last school election attracted
so little interest that only eleven votes
were cast The present school build
ing WAS erected in 1928 at a cost Of
$4,000 and in 1895 an addition OF one
class room was added to il. Some
voters think the district should have
a new building.

There APE ninety mine counties in the

by that number and the total for the

Bill for 1918 Average One.
That the County's bill against sheep
killing dogs is an average one is seen
in the total for 1917. which was $l.3o5.
In the county bill for 1918 was not in

thought that your life is going to be
wholly what you make 1t: II 1t is a
failure you can blame no one but
yourself. The world today is crying
for men and women who can and
will do things, men and women who
are worth while, but remember that
you are going to have strong compe-
ton in this life struggle, and for you
to succeed you must excel. It has
been said that "he who writes bet

or builds a better mouse trap, though
he lives In an unbroken forest, the

So, you, il you steady and know
yourself and by diligence excel In any
avocation, nothing can keep you from
success; but let me caution you
against placing false value on sue

expect to reach your goal in one day,
one month or one year, success can
be attained only in the way the old
woman proposed to fire the gun--by
degrees; and it cannot be attained
without an effort. AS the old song

you are about to set sail with your
precious cargo upon the great high

just as many dangers; is liable to the

prudent thing for you to do to equip

some definite port and steer directly
for that goal. Do not drift with ever

about aimlessly upon the great high

self and knowing yourself begin the
voyage for the goal which you have
selected. Do not fear your ability to
reach the port for which you set said;
do not fear the seaworthiness of your
ship; do not doubt your compass or
fear the dangers Of the sea, for every
