was of little consequence as the
hand extinguisher was effective
in extinguishing the blaze before
the fire truck reached the scene
The sound of the siren causes much
concern to our people ns everyone
knows that we are badly in need of
good fire hose The report from
the fire boys is to the effect that
we only have about 100 feet of
good dependable hose and a fire
of much magnitude would be
hard to handle with that amount
wns brought ij0ts jil get behind the city com
mission and help to see that Tulia

FRAM BUREAU MANAGER
TO SPEAK HERE
Mr Trplett of Hale Centerfield
manager for this district of
the Farm Bureau will address tho
farmers of this county at Tulia
Saturday afternoon at 230
oclock
He will explain the workings
of the shipping of your cotton and
any other problems that you may
not understand
ordor for 100 if a building of
reasonable permanency is to be
eroded
Other subscriptions from other
orders will likely be received as
well as from a largo number of individuals
and it is thought that
these contributions with the aid
of the school board and tho moral
backing of Tulia and surrounding
country will insure the building
of a structure in which we may
all tako pride
