OUIt ATTITUDE
Tho Reporter has tried to mako
It clear that whllo Ablleho ns well
as other "West Texas cdmmunitlas
wore sOrely disappointed becauso
tho Tech collope was placed on the.
Plains thoro is no object to; bo
gained in seoklng to set aside tho
board's decision.
At least quo newspaper man on
whoso shoulders' tho mantle of
Horace Greeley must have descend
cd accuses tho Reporter of trying
to "soft soaP" and sidestep 'on tho
Issue. Nothing of tho kind. Tho
Reporter does not believe anything
Is to bo gained by continually agi-
tating this question although tho
Reporter vfaa as keenly .disappoint-
ed when tho college Wont to tho
Plains as any other newspaper was
That we bollevo U tho nttitudo
of a majority pf the newspapers In
tho territory Included in the .bill
as Woll as the attitude of a ma-
jority of the tiomPetlnif towns.
Tho Balrd Star 1a willing- to let
well enough nlonc. It concludes an
editorial on tho Tech as follows:
The Legislature should
charigo the natno tit the CQllcgo
and call It tile fanllnndlo or
Plains College which it Is. N0
wo do not want the Legislature
to repeal the law as it did elx
years ago when Ablleno won
the location but Wo do' think
tho wprds "West Toxas" should
bo ollmlnated from the name
of the college as the Locating .
Board hag located tho .college "
bo far north of the center of
tho population of West Texas.
Just why the Locating Board
should" not consider a great
school towh liko Abilene or nv
lamou9r hustling typical West
Texas town like San Ar.golo
eeoms strango to us. Wo have
spent fifty yeara in West Toxas
and vy-et know that no two
towns in West Texas are r.toro
typical of West Texas senti-
ment and the .get up and hustlo
than tho two towns named.
Then there aro other -towns
Cisco Brownwood Coleman
Clyde Swoetwator that are
more centrally located as to.
population inten&ed to be perv-
cd by tho co)lego than Lub-
lock. ' TIUITKltS
Towns cri route will warmly Wel-
omo the Ablleno trade trippers
now on their swing around West
Texas.
Entertainments of varloub .kinds
havo been arranged In honor of
tho Abllenlans and every towrf vis
Ited will extend a cordial West
Texas welcome. '
The trade trippers aro tho repre-
sentatives of their city doing mis-
sionary work nmong West Texas
Jn behalf of tho West Toxas Fair.
Tho homo folks should etrtiid be-
hind them to a man and do every-
thing possible to mako their jour-
ney both -pleasant and Profitable.
A. lot of the stuff wo get through
the mail marked ''first clasw mall"
is first class bunk.
It eeems that a gopd mauv men
play golf to exorclso their vooabu
lary. .
Senator Albert B. Cummins says
consolidation is the only hope of
the railways. Mr. Cummins' view is
shared by one-half of ona -percent
of tho best minds in the .country.
Short akirti nro coming back
ehorter than ever a fashion expert
declares. This time slip writes tho
Joiee will be tho Tiomlnal limit.
There are always two aides to thin
question front and back.
It Is now a felony In Toxas to
drive an automobile nnywhoro nny
tlmo while the driver is intoxicated.
The Inhibition ought also to ex-
tend to persona of unsound mental-
ity. A good many half-wits are
driving automohtloH.. '
If and when wlntor comes tho
coal wage controvorey'wlll Interest
a lot of People but happily iho res-
idents of this particular metropolis
won't havo to worry. Natural gas
Is one civic asset that we have In
abundance.
The editorial desk Is decoratod

Colorado's much-vaunted sconery
