aud needs of the institution The
party was conducted through all
departments and carefully looked
into all requirements of the

The legislature party arrived in

ENTHUSIASM AT HIGH

PITCH FOR NEW R R
The follow up trip made over
the eastern end of the proposed
Texas Panhandle and Gulf railroad
from Tulia to Seymour by
Secretary of the Chamber of Commerce
13 G Barks and J S Engle
man the first of the week proved
that the work done by President
of the Chamber of Commerce Foster
Klous and C L Cooper on
their trip over this end of the proposed
railroad a week before was
accomplishing great good The
people along the entire route welcome
all efforts and will encourage
any move looking to the
building of a road through this
vast country which at the present
time is very inadequately
supplied with railroads
A most enthusiastic bunch is
that at Seymour They have a
road into their town from Fort
Worth but what they want is the
extension into New Mexico which

W C Smitheo of Silvert < on is
visiting his daughters Mrs Bruce
Gerdes and Mrs Ed McMurtry of
this city
will give them a trunk line
through that thriving little city
Enthusiasm for the road is high
there and their promise of going
the limit in getting the line will
be greatly appreciated by the
many towns along the proposed
route who have no ranroad outletWhat can be said of Seymour
can truthfully be said of all the
towns along the proposed railroad
A dissenting voice was
not found in any town They are
wide awake and doing all within
their power to show to the world
the necessity for the building of
this line
Many words of appreciation
were spoken of Tulia people and
the Chamber of Commerce for the
push she is putting into this
move
Fort Worth and her people are
waking up to the proposition and
arc beginning to realize the value
in
such a road to them People
fo r the
Tech
that they want the road and
want to trade in Fort Worth
When Fort Worth realizes the
needs of such a road and the benefit
to be derived from its building
as do all the other towns and
cities on the route it will not belong
until the road is in actual
construction
