This teacher of teachers is also rather proud of his home at 715 West Nettie which was planned and built entirely by the Davis family. Constructed of caliche and cement five years ago, this old-world type hacienda home was built for this culture. climate, and vegetation, as well as for the activities of the dwellers.
