No doubt It would be cheaper and better for
all of us If we paid them a living wage In the first

they accepted fees of any kind that might Influence

that many of our county

I want to take this opportunity
to thank each one of the boys and
to thank your fine coach Ray San

and sporlmanship which
was shown by them when they com1

Many of the boys stayed in the i

tainly the people of Tulia can be
proud of the way the boys conducted
themselves as gentlemen while they
were here
We are looking forward to having
your many fine boys and won

Dear Editor
It seems that when any of us
have n complaint that wo want
everyone to know wo write them
down and throw them in your lap
so to speak
My complaint or gripe is this
We live out on the farm about 12
miles from town and everyone
knows that you can follow any
mall route from Tulia and see that
every mall box unless Its near a
house is simply riddled with bullet
holes
Our box is about a half a mile
away at an intersection with other
boxes along side During the recent
storm we couldnt get our mall for
several days and when we did It
was so waterlogged we had to
dry it out before we could read it
Now If those who must learn to
be expert marksmen while driving
down our roads cans and whisky
bottles and leave our mail boxes
alone wo would greatly appreciate
it
Is there no law against this evil
Thanks for listening

The new year is a good time to look back
and to look ahead so I thought you d be interested
in some recent statements by R A Good
son general manager of the telephone company
in Texas
Mr Goodson says that we plan to invest 106
million for new construction in Texas in 1956
the largest telephone construction program
in the state s history This is in addition to 229
million for operating expenses and taxes
What the Record Shows
The decision to go ahead with an unprecedented
construction and improvement program
is based on these factors
The industrial production of Texas is several
times greater than 10 years ago Population has
increased 1225 per cent in five years The construction
industry in Texas remains strong retail
sales continue upward and business is
generally healthy
Number of Telephones Doubled
Since 1945 the number of telephones in Texas
has doubled There are now more than 2 million
telephones serving Texas and 93 per cent of
them are dial telephones
The telephone company has spent 760 million
gross for construction in Texas since 1915
This expenditure has contributed much to Texas
growth The annual payroll for 26000 telephone
people in Texas is 103 million
Despite this growth Mr Goodson points
out some families arc waiting for telephones
or higher grades of service We re keenly aware
of those people and we re doing everything
possible to bring them service as quickly as
possible
Our New Frontier
Texas was born of revolution grew up with
cattle and oil industries matured and broadened
in our generation Yet the now frontier ahead
has greater promise than had the frontier of
the past
Texas is facing its most interesting and challenging
years Mr Goodson says Tho prospects
arc bright Thnt s why tho telephone
company in 1956 will undertake tho largest telephone
construction program in tho history of
Texas
