That Might School
Last week we made the sug-
gestion that the young men
boys in Crosbyton get
and begin a night schdol/in
" which will be taught Bookkeep-
ing and Arithmetic as well as
Penmanship, To the suggestion
we have had several of the most
promising young men call and
state that they are ready to get
in the class and do all they can
for themselves as well as for the
community. Now the Review
suggests that we have a meet-
ing at some convenient place and
organize the class and get the
same on its feet. Prof. Smith
heartily indorsee the plan, and
it has been mentioned to Mr. C.
C. Cherbonnier, and he has ex
'ftroiuuHi himself as favorable' t<

himself as favorable'to
it, and we understand that Prof.
Smith and Mr. Cherbonnier have
stated that they would take the
matter of instructing the class.
Now, boys, it's up to you. If you
want to spend your evenings in
a way that you wjll be benefited
the rest of your life, you cannot
afford to pass this up. Note,
boys, who are getting, the big
salaries in Crosbyton?. Is it the
lllgnorant day laborer, or is it the

It looks like Crosbyton is t&|

ple of Crosby county be satisfied
to sit still, andr let a'- couple o.
non-residents come arid tell us
what "we need and what we
should do. The . large majority
in the election Is evidence of
what and how the people feel.

purchases to leave Crosbyton
and they were for some excuse
or other, but it is time that
every man interested in Crosby
County would look into the mat-
ter of trading at home - . Buy
everything you can in Crosby
county and thereby keep the,
profits in Crosby county; If you
have something to sell you can-
not sell it to a man in Kansas
City or Chicago, but you can sell
them in Crosbyton and for that

at all times looking for greater
things, and its good that its so,
for in hope and confidence the
greatest nations today are at
peace and man kind is benefited
hereby. Looking ahead for
our own welfare at this time
ooks the best ever, and we hope
to see our fondest hopes reidizeck-
and we believe we will. Crosby-
;on at thi8 time looks better than
it did yesterday, and it looked
letter yesterday than.it ever did
before, so the saying ,is coming
true in Crosbyton — ''Beat Yes-
erday." The railroad will be
lere in two months, so we are in-,
formed, and with it will come'
the developments that we have
so long hoped for, and with town
developments will come the de-
velopments in the farming dis-
tricts, and all in all Crosbyton
country is in the swim. With
the crop just harvested, our
farmers are as a rule in mighty
good shape, considering other
parts of the State, and why
ghould we not feel proud?

remains to be done is to organffe
the school and get down to work.
Prof. H. E. Smith, Jr., of the
Crosbyton Public School, has of-
fered to teach the night school
fo* a nominal consideration. The
cost to each pupil will be trifling.
Cj. C. Cherbohnier and others
have interested themselves in
the movement and. there is no
reason to doubt that the night
school will be organized and in
opbratibn by next week.
The course will consist of math-
ematics and other studies to
equip the youftgipen better for
business life. ^ ■' ''

first injunction case was heard
Monday.
The attorneys for Emma
sought to have the injunction
dissolved wherein Crosbyton had
asked that the courity officers be

not to dissolve the injunction.

of population and harvests, which arelhe index of

prosperous well being of our communities throughout this

year great progress has been achieved in the cause jof
arbitration and the peaceful settlement of international
disputes. •- " '
"Now, therefore, I, William Howard Taft, President
of the United States of America, in accordance with the
wise custom of the civil magistrates since the first settle-

enjoining the people upon that day to meet in their
churches for the praise of Almighty God and to return
heartfelt thanks to Him for all his goodness and loving

out gratitude, and too all-fire^
lazy to come when called—unless
there is something in it. He
does not appear to realize thathe
is lucky to be alive and safe here

of having to jump every time a
wolf takes a notion to lunch off
his cartas or a cowboy forgets
the game law.
