How this n got news of the trout's

RED CROSS MEMBERSHIP
CAMPAIGN is NOW ON

During the war thousands Of Lub-
book citizens joined the Red Cross
and gladly paid their annual dues of
one dollar to assist this worthy insti-
tuition. A great number OF us are
now inclined to regard the war and
its attendant emergencies as being
over and that there is no longer any
need Of this work or of our contrib
uting to il. This is a mistake. The
problems Of peace and reconstruction
have developed an immense field for
the work and activities of The Amer
lean Red Cross. Not only is there a
CRYING need for their services in war
torn Europe. but there is also much
work to be done within the borders
Of our own country.
The Government has turned over
number Of tasks and activities to
this institution which it formerly at
tended TO. but which il is now be-
lieved the Red Cross can handle TO a
better advantage. A number of hos
pital units used in Europe have been
brought back and distributed over
this country TO be used in times of
disaster and emergency. First Aid
instruction is being continued. the
Junior Red Gross is still carrying
on" and many other plans are being
perfected and carried out which make
the American Red Cross an institu-
tion Of incalculable value to Ameri-
ca and one which merits the hearty
support of every man. woman and
child in the land.
Lubbock will launch its member
ship campaign on Saturday January

the local chapter will be placed at
the Citizens National Bank corner
and at the Lubbock State Bank cor

service crosses. window flags, wind

on hand. The dues are one dollar
per year and the booths mentioned
above will be provided with nsces-
sary blanks for the enrolment Of all

SEVERAL THINGS LUBBOCK NEEDS
WE ARE SURE TO HAVE PAVED STREETS SOON ACCORD
ING TO INFORMATION FROM ENGINEERS
OTHER IMPROVEMENTS WOULD MOOERNIzE OUR CITY
Should Underground Modern Apartment House
Is Needed Number Of Modern Rent Houses Needed,
Streets Should be Named and Houses Numbered.

There are many things that Lub-
book should have TO make here a big
ger and better city OF course we
will have paving.
Last week we published letter
from the engineers who have charge
Of the paving propositions in Lub-
book, stating that the program for
paving would be rushed along as rap
idly as possible. and that they did
not anticipate any serious delays in
getting the work started, which was
good news 20 the citizenship of Lub-
book.
Now, while this is being done, we
believe that Lubbock should be ad-
Among those things that should be
done would be the placing Of the
electric light and telephone wires
underground, thereby eliminating all
the unsightly cables. posts, etc
Lubbock should also have her
Streets named and houses properly
numbered. We believe this is i'm
portant, while others seem to look
upon it as a very small matter. and
actually make light Of the suggestion,
but we believe that this is more
through ignorance or lack of infor-
nation upon their part than anything
else
Lubbock needs many more houses
to take care Of the continual flow Of
people to this section of the country.
Many Of them want TO locate in Lub-
book, but are unable to find places
to house their families. A large
apartment house has been suggested
as a means of overcoming this con-
dition, and in all probability this
would be a paying investment for
someone who has surplus money and
is in position to look after it.
A large humber of nice. eonven-
iently arranged. well built rent hous-

es are needed badly Not the cheap
ly constructed, poorly equipped
buildings that are often panned off
as tenant houses, but nice ones
buildings that people could live in
with a degree Of satisfaction. BY
having this kind. good reliable ten
ants could at all times be procured,
and the investment would be a pay
ing one We do not believe that
rent houses like many we have in this
city and are found in every other
city really pay the owners a decent
rate Of interest on the money invest
ed, but the kind we suggest we be-
lieve would be all right
There is also a shortage of business
buildings Of the kind that is needed
for good business concerns to occupy.
We are quite sure that "A number OF
good substantial concerns have gone
elsewhere because they could not get
a building in which to conduct their
business.
Lubbock really needs free delivery
of mail, and with only a few improve
ments and changes we could get IL,
which would greatly relieve the pres
ent congested conditions at the post
office, which is caused simply be-
cause Lubbock has outgrown the
present facilities and allowance Of
postal clerks.
This is a year in which great pro-
gress will be made in all cities, and
Lubbock must get in the forefront,
and exact from the proper authorities

Let everyone do their part in max
ing Lubbock what she shoule be.

gent invitation 70 come TO Lubbock.
