COOPERATE WITH THE FIRE BOYS

p,obabIv no organization receives less attcn-
ton than the volunteer fire department OF the
city. vet their value is inestimable. Little do we
think of the fire boys who jump out OF bed at all
hours of the night or break away from their work
at any hour OF the day when the fire alarm is
sounded. and jump the fire truck with their very
best clothes on and endanger their lives to save
the property of some fellow who possibly has
never shown enough appreciation to even thank
the department for their service There is great
deal of genuine sacrifice the part OF the volun-
teer fircmen. and absolutely remuneration. ex-
cept for the safety of the town. and the benefits
derived in matter of insurance rates to the proper
ty owners in the city. and who do not belong
to the company receive these benefits. We repeat
that the fire boys do not get the proper encourage
ment or cooperation in their work We are OF
the opinion that every property owner OF the city
should belong to the fire department-we do not
mean active members. who operate the hose and
the machinery of the fire department. but each
and every one should be member to the extent OF
paying a small amount into the treasury OF the
fire department as a maintenance fund, and re-
munerative fund to be used in buying many things
that the boys need from time to time and to pay
for damaged clothing that often results from right
ing fire. This should be taken up in definite
form. and before the close of this year prop
erty owner should have opportunity OF paying
something into this fund and placed the honor
roll as permanent contributor to the fire de
partment We are sure the business men OF the
town will not stand back a proposition OF this
kind but they bear the brunt OF everything and
should have the cooperation OF other property
owners in this matter In the future. ii you can
not contribute money. you al least extend en-
couraeing words to them rather than hinder them
and discourage them by slight remarks like they
saved the lot or they asved the water in the
we'll or they are a lot of bone-heads and
lot of other remarks common to the occasion

FAIR BOOSTERS WELL RECEIVED


From the comment given the Fair Boosters on
their trips through the South Plains. they must
have made lasting impression on the people Of
all towns visited except SIaton. Rousing notice Of
their visit was given in every paper except the
one at SIaton. Whether this oversight or
whether il was done in an effort to minimize the
Importance of the Great South Plains Fair we are
not able to say. but do not believe that Slaton
folks feel that way toward Lubbock. We do
not believe that this apparent "snub' indicates
that the Slaton people not interested in the
South Plains Fair. which is as important to Slaton
as any other South Plains town. The fair is fl
nanced by Lubbock. and OF course Lubbock will
reap probably more direct returns from their in
vestment than any other town. but this is only
right in return for the amount of money she is put
ting up but the entire South Plains will receive
more or less benefits from the Fair. and Lubbock
county. in its entrity will be benefited We can
not believe that the Slaton paper did this intention
ally. at least the Avalanche hopes not. We are
glad to see every town in Lubbock county grow
and prosper We delight in the spirit OF rivalry
That is good for any town. and is found in every
town where the undertaken is not backed up to
the front door, but let's eliminate every semblance
Of prejudice and jealousy and all unite in a strong
pull for the development of the South Plains coun-
try.

TAKE CARE OF THE TRADE

Lubbock is favorably located. People natur-
ally want to come here to trade, but the business
men must see to it that the roads kept in good
condition. if they expect the people to continue
to come here to do their trading Most OF the
roads running into Lubbock are good. generally
speaking. Some are better than others but we
have heard some complaint of a piece of road in
the extreme northwest part of the county that is
needing attention badly People of Littlefield are
rather partial to Lubbock and prefer to trade here
but you know a mile or Of real bad road will
cause a fellow in an automobile to go a long way
over a good road rather than to pull mile or so
of rough driving. II is the countys business to
to il that these roads are kept in good shape but
if they go to sleep at the switch, little proddng
might help to wake EN- up bit Keep the roads
in good shape leading into Lubbock and you need
not be uneasy about the trade coming this way

There is no justice in raising the valuation OF
my property to meet the deficit caused by some
fellow who has ten times as much money as
have. to go delinquent That is the way it works.
however, and those who pay their taxes every
year have just howl against the practices. Col
lect the delinquent taxes for the Lubbock In
dependent School District and get the school
treasury in better shape. This is the only fair
way. AS one of those who pays taxes every year.
the Avalanche insists that these taxes be collected
at once or at least an effort be made to do so.
The same is true of the city and Of the county.
Taxes are high enough. and to continue to raise
the taxes on the fellow who pays faithfully and
without kick is unjust

Many people have criticised the school man
aeement the past year and big fight was raised
on the tax rate on the grounds of the school man
agement In the face Of all this, the report OF the
high schools of Texas sent out by the State Super
intendent of Public Instruction shows that the Lub-
book schools have more credits than any other
school in the west half of the State of equal Popu-
lation This would indicate that the mismanage-
ment argument is merely a bubble and there is
nothing to it. We invite you to read in another
part of this paper few Of the comparative credits
and you will find that Lubbock Schools among
the foremost in the State
