Littlefield, Tex.—Pep is the name of the newest town to spring up in west Texas.
It is 16 miles southwest of here, near the northwest corner of Hockley county. A few weeks ago a pasture, today a buzzing, growing community—that's Pep. The enterprise of its citizens occasions the belief that the town is appropriately named.
The new town covers a part of the famous Littlefield ranch now being subdivided with numerous other west Texas ranches into small farm plots.
So suddenly did the town come into being that when County Judge Evans was asked for free text books to supply the school, already under construction, he did not know there was such a town, and drove over to see it.
