LUBBOCK AGAIN WINS HONORS

One reason why Lubbock continues to be so
well known at all times and in every corner OF the
State is because she not only wins few honors now
and then in two things but just keeps coping
honors in everything that comes up.
The Stock Judging team brought back lot OF
publicity from the Fort Worth Stock Show. The
high school tied onto lot of honor in the recent in
terscholastic meet here. The ball team wins more

Now tina, the bonds have gone over in good
shape the matter Of location for the building will
naturally come up for consideration In the rural
communities it will probably not be such job. bu,
II will be an exceedingly difficult proposition in the
matter Of locating the high school. there are very
few locations suitable or available for this purpose.
In matter of school, we believe that the people
should have voice. and it would probably be
better OF more satisfactory il the location be left
to a vote of the people. Before this is done. how
ever it will be necessary to get options on the To-
cations as il would be impossible to buy that much
ground in body il people learn that it is for school
purposes The new high school building should be
as centrally located as possible to the school going
population of the town. as it will serve the people OF
this city for years to come. Ward buildings will
likely have to be built but the high school building
will many years yet.
