longs to the Amarillo club. “When
the first issue of the Sun-up mag-
azine came out In Pebruary, I
noticed there were no Bower ar- ,
rungements,'’ Mrs. Thomas said,
"so I made a trip to San Antonio
t" contact the publishers and show ;
them mv book material. They ,
wanted to use the material, but,
since a publisher. tThc Naylor
Company hud already accepted it I
tot- consideration to be published >
in book form, I could lot them
have only lour of the pictures i
from the set." Other , of Mrs. |
Thomas' flower arrangements will j
appear in the magazine in season, j
and an arrangement has boon j
made with the publishers to do
a series of flower arrangements
for publication later.
When Mr*. Thomas moved to
Atuanllo ih the fall of 1944 a
flower show was scheduled, hav-
ing no flowers of her own, but
wishing to compote, she gathered
heads of grain along the highway
anil arranged them to be used as
a winter bouquet in the home, and
won n blue ribbon with the ar-
rangement- A picture of this ar-
rangement will appear in the Sep-
tember issue of the Sun-lip. Mrs.
Thomas has also won blue rib-
bons with her arrangements at
Borger, Amarillo and Lubbock.

i Message of Vital Im-
portance to Parents of
Phillips and Borger
The vocational training pro-
ram provided by our high .school
probably the most important
ngle factor before our commun-
y at the present time; v.e have
i-ry few farms in Hutchinson
vunty. Our boys who do not go
» college, and very few of them
o, must go to work in local m-
ustries when they have finished
■hool. These boys are entitled to
ic vary best training we can give
>cm to fit them for thi-n future
ves in our plants and industries.
,t the present time, boys from
Iher communities, who have had
rtter oppoitunilu-.- in school, ai«

dustries operating here ior
funds with which to construct a
vocational shop to be operated
in connection with our high
school. Through the generosity
of Phillips Petroleum Com-
pany, United Carbon Company,
J. M. Huber Incorporated, Co-
lumbian Carbon Company and
others, a total of S43.400.00 was
subscribed for this purpose. The
fact that these corporations
have contributed so generously,
attests to the understanding of
the problem on the part of the
officials of these corporation!
and their desire to assist our boys
to enter industry at least on an
equal basis with the boy* from
other communities.

ating in this field are as much in-
terested in the training of veterans
and other adults as they are in the
training of high school students.
As has been pointed out, a
consolidated high school, with
the backing of the resources of
both Phillips and Borger. could
provide a much better and finer
vocational training setup than
either school district could pro-
vide standing alone. A voca-
tional shop for Borger High
School is under construction,
and. baring unforeseen delays,
will be ready to accept students
when school opens nr at Sep-
tember. regardless of how the
consolidation election comes out
A much larger and belter voca-

offered tor ih* future. If •*># two

For WATER and SEWER RONDS
VOTE FOR PROPOSITION NO. 1-
This will authorize the City of Borger to buy and improve the
water system with earnings from the sale of water. Your property
cannot be taxed to pay the bonds. Bonds will not be issued or sold
for water wells or pipe line to them if a supply can be contracted
at reasonable price.
VOTE FOR PROPOSITION NO. 2-
This will authorize the City of Borger to build two sewage
disposal plant units and run the outfall lines from the city to them.
The City now has no sewage treatment system as required by law
and reasonable health standards. Money from bonds proposed
by Proposition No. 2 will also be used to extend sewer mains
throughout the city. Not more than one-third of the city now has
sewer mains. Tax money cannot be used to pay these bonds. They
will be paid by water and sewer revenues.
«
Your vote in favor of the two propositions on Wednesday,
May 15th, 1946, will mean a forward step in the improvement of
Borger. Those who have real or personal property rendered for
taxation in Borger are eligible to vote.

And Help to Clean Up and Build A Better Borger!
