WE MEED NEW BUILDINGS
One outat&nding need for Denison, now that We are facing
the Centennial year with at last two million visitors due to
pass through our gates, may be put down as suitable buildings
to house our city offices. The fact that we have so many
other splendid features as a city which place us at the top
as compared with most any other city, makes our city muni-
cipal building an imperative matter, 'it Would seem.
None of us but will wish to see our dity enjoying a mod-
ern and adequate home for all city business, and now is the
proper time, it would seem, to*
take steps to that end.
Such a structure is available
in the old Y building and could
be purchased at a very low
figure and with a relatively
small sum transformed into a
home such as tho city needs.
Denison has reached the point
where it can’t afford to remain
longer housed in the quarters
it how' occupies. It does not
comport with the dignity of the
city nor measure up to the
standard of administration the
city is getting through its chos,-
en representatives.
A new city building will add
enthusiasm to its citizens just
as a new home does to the fam-
ily. With the Y building shap-
ed into just such a home, it
will be on Main street along
which the hundreds of thou-
sands of visitors will pass in
their trek to the Centennial
headquarters at Dallas.
Denison is on the eve of a
forward movement and the city
buildings should set a pace for
the march to a better day.

CO-OPERATION BUILDS
The mere plea for co-opera-
tion will n,ot get us anywhere.
There are many who would
give cooperation should they
knpw what is wanted and need-
ful to be done. We can’t keep
the people in darkness and ex-
pect them to give such support
as may be needed on the mer.;
request that they give themsel-
ves to such and such a propo-
sition.
For us to run 'along doing
things in our way as long as we
do not need the support of the
people as a whole, and then
finding ,ourselves out on a limb
and begin to cry for coopera-
tion and help, it simply won’t
get the work done.
Steudy going, intelligent sup-
port born of faith in those ht
the head of things because they
have shown all the way through
their appreciation of all sup-
port, is the very foundation of
securing the only kind pf sup
port that builds things.
None of us lives to ourselves.
We all need the hearty support
and cooperation of our fellow
ntan. All of us are human and
all of us have our following,
our likes and dislikes. One
tiling is certain, and that is for
the good of our common inter-
est and Denison, all should lend
intelligent and hearty coopera-
tion to any move that is for the
betterment of Denison and the
general wvlfare of all.
This calls fior our leader!
taking the people into their
confidence at all times as well
as the rest of us t,o lay aside
prejudices and party lines when
ft is for Denison.
