COMMUNITY COOPERATION

Tia on a rampant again in Lubbock For a few
weeks after few people went to the polls and
voted what was purported to be vox populi vox
del (the voice of the people,, some OF the peo-
pie were inclined to take back seat, but the
stunning blow did not daze them long and they
are coming again. Community cooperation will
not down The majority of the people OF Lub-
book want good school in Lubbock and they
are going to have it, The school funds are short
and the rate of fifty cents on the $lOO valuation
of property will not raise a sufficient fund to carry
on the expenses of operating the school, especial
" If the board purchases two hundred desks that
are necessary for the children during the coming
school term so the idea hatched in the Ro-
tary Club last Wednesday evening that in order
to assure the people who live here and who want
to come, that Lubbock school term will not be cut
nor hampered in a manner that would prove dis
astrous. that the Rotary Club give the school
board their hearty cooperation and stand behind
them and aid them in every way possible to IN
sure the full nine months term OF school and
accordingly the first to launch buy
a desk campaign and the last time we heard OF
the bunch that carrying the list they were
sweeping things before them in great style. They
are going to take the expense OF buying this
equipment off the hands OF the board and give
them that much money to apply on the
running expenses of the school These seats cost
So As each, delivered and installed, and two
hundred necessary to supply the demands oil
the school This committee is after two hundred
people who will buy these two hundred desks. and
they feel like Lubbock people are in on the deal
to the extent that this will be accomplished which
will give the board about two thousand dollars to
use in some other way. The campaign started
Immediately after the Rotary luncheon Wednesday,
and only one man out of the twenty-five people
approached on the subject refused to buy one;
some buying more than one desk and it is expected
that the full number will be bought and paid for
in this manner before the term of school starts
this fall. The people are imbibng in the good old
fashioned Lubbock spirit and it's a pretty safe
bet that the movement will succeed.

A HOWL FROM THE EAST

The people of West Texas proposing
that state park be established in the Davis
mountains in their section of the country AZ hrst
thought the idea seemed to us to be splendid one
hut upon reading several lengthy articles it seems
that the West Texans have tied a string onto the
the proposition and asking the people OF the
State TO establish the park and expend millions
Dvobablv in doing So which will also mean mil
lions in their own pockets il we are not mistaken
Il is the idea of these folks to build numerous
dams and lakes in the mountains, to beaunfy
the proposed park but which will in reality irrgate
thousands of acres of their barren land and make
II nyo6table The scheme to be to get the
people Of the entire state to pay Tor watering heif
lands by causing them to believe they are beauh
fving the State Park. The originators state that
these lakes and dams will be fine for boating and
fishing and will make beautiful scenery. No doubt
il would enhance the beauty OF the surroundings
but why should state park be established IN To-
cation where the scenery must be handmade and
artificial when there many natural beauty spots
available for such an institution. We are heartily
in favor of establishing state park, but do not
believe il should be established in location so
as TO become a commercial asset for any certain
section of the state.--Hamilton Herald
We are not in position to say whether this is
right or wrong just at this time, but we are IN
position to know that every time the West wants
= few dollars spent for public improvements the
fellows in the eastern portion OF the State begin
to yelp. and raise racket about it. West Texas
dumps millions of dollars in the tax bin every
year to help keep up lot of state institutions IN
the east and north and south that we get no bene-
fits from whatever. which seems to be perfectly all
right with the brethren in that part OF the coun-
try. The blooming capitol building was erected
bv giving away great chunks OF our land and the
railroads first built in the state were built in the
eastern part with land that the state gave which
was all located in the west, and when the roads
got ready to come this way we had to go the
bonus route in order to get them. This still salts
fed the people of the east but now that the west
is being settled up and there is demand tor
some institutions of various kinds and the state
is asked to contribute something to their support,
there comes a howl from the forks OF the creek
that can be heard throughout the state. West
Texas wants nothing than fair playa
square deal-but she does want that and we are
not going to be bounded around any longer than
possible The west is going to be recognized, and
you fellows who have been receiving a lot OF cold
cash from US every year for nothing will have to
be satisfied with what you entitled to and that
is d little

A NINE MONTHS SCHOOL ASSURED

You can tell it to the world that Lubbock is
going to have a full nine months term OF school
this year The Rotary Club sent that message to
the school board last "Wednesday from the mid
week luncheon, after hearing report by one OF
the members of the board, OF the financial condi-
ton of the school, a motion made and sec
londed and unanimously adopted by the Club that
the Rotary Club proposed to assist the board in
raising the amount necessary il the funds are
short to carry on the school for the usual nine
months This is guaranteed and there is no longer
any question about the length of the school term.
The Avalanche believes that this is matter that
the people in general will heartily endorse and
with the Rotary Club in the lead will march right
on to a successful end. Our schools must
We must hold our present high standing in edu-
lcatonal lines. and we must be in position to say
Ito people when they come here that schools
are equal to any and second to none in the state.
The Rotary Club is composed of men that are pro-
gressive and can readily that the schools can
not be eopardized at any cost. hence their unani-
nous action. which has cleared away any doubt
of our schools being kept up to their present high
standard. Come to Lubbock
