—Prof. Joe P|- Payne, who is
one .of the instructors in the
Yoakum colored normal writes
the Herald as follows about the
normal: “The Yoakum Colored
Summer Normal is truly enthus-
iastic as it was predicted it
would be. Effective work is be-
ing done and the relations that
exist' between the faculty and
student teacheiis is all that
could be desired.! They are com-

proposed routes, as he is hot al-
lowed to make publichisopinion,
but from various sources has se-.
cured information sufficient to
warrant the opinion that the
routes will be recommended for
approval to the IK 8. Govern-
ment. Concerning the Ezzell
route as a protest was filed
against it by citizens of that
section it is doubtful whether it
will be approved.
Rural routes are getting to be
a stupendous affair in Texas.
At the present time there are
over 1300 routes established in
Texas and the monthly pay roll
amounts to nearly .875,000 per
month which puts it close to the
million mark each year that our
government.expends on carriers’ !
salaries in Texas.."
Mr. Stringer who is well posted
on all matters pertaining to ru-
ral routes says that it will be on-
ly a few months when the million
dollar mark will be passed. And
if routes continue to be estab-
lished with the same rapidity . in j
the future as they have in the
past it will be but a few years
when our great state will be a
network of rural delivery routes.
