E. L. NoEY WRITES FROM
GAINESVILLE. TEXAS

GAINESVILLE. Tex. Mar. Ia. 1920.
Mr.. James l.. Dow,
Lubbock, Texas,
Nv Dear Sir and Friend:
J am Just in receipt Of your state
men Of my subscription to the Ava
lanche, and I take pleasure in remit
ting for another years subscription
20 your excellent paper. ! am always
glad to get The Avalanche as II IS
like a letter from home TO me and ]
hope to be back in good old Lubbock
soon. II is my honest opinion that
Lubbock is destined to be the best
city on the Plains and that the South
Plains Il the coming part Of Tex
as I think that the best people on
earth live in Lubbock. And 1t is with
much pleasure for me TO know that
Lubbock is to have paved streets and
to notice how few was against the
bonds.
II there is anything that adds to
a city, il is civic Righteousness and
believe that this needed improve
ment was brought about largely
through the persistent efforts of the
Avalanche. and believe that the next
thing for the hub Is free mail deliv-
cry The good people Of Lubbock are
entitled 20 the best, and ] hope that
before this year Is closed that Lub-
book will be enjoying free mail de-
livery and another thing that we
need is a public park. Trees do well
and we have plenty Of water, and !
a. -. ~...or x.,Iv NOE emit have a
beautiful park. And too, u has been
the mistake Of nearly all cities to
wait 10 buy grounds for parks until
Il got so high that they had 10 20
so far out In order 10 be able 10
buy. So Il looks like that We might
profit by this mistake. and buy while
land Il cheap. ! believe that the pro-
cxcssive spirit il beginning 10 d0mi-
nate in our beautiful city. and that
now Il the opportune time 10 get
busy and procure these things, and
I know that Miss Avalanche Il with
me on these things.
With best wishes to the Avalanche
and Lubbock. J am very truly,

more industries according TO W. l.
Soontag, railroad promoter who Is
making temporary headquarters In

table undertaking. He thinks the
sweet potatoes raised In the South
Plains section Is much superior TO
those raised in the North. being Of
a more uniform size and favor.
In speaking Of the railroad project
proposed between Lubbock and Sill
verton, he says that ''it viii take ac-
tive work for Lubbock men and sug-
gests that no time be lost as the Sill
vsrton people are anxious for a road
and will cooperate probably with the
first proposal Mr.. Soontag has been

Furniture Sale
Our four floors~of furniture and rugs now being
offered at price reduction Of from
1920 to 1919

Good furniture-that is, furri-
ture of authentic design and sound
workmanshib-is a real investment
at any time, no matter where it is
bought. 1t gives lasting pleasure
and so is really less expensive than
the so called Cheap" furniture.
That is the only kind of furniture
you will ever find here--during a.
sale or at any other time. The
1919 to 400 saving is on furniture
that any one wanting good furni-
ture would gladly buy at any time.

we give the advantage Of reduced

additional charge.
You owe it to yourself to plan to
