fessor as applied to themselves. This is
a sensible move on their part and should
be initiated by every teachers's associa-

this honored title unless he holds a
chair in collegiate institution, and to
apply it to any and every pedagogue
with or without a position, is degrading
to the profession, and shows the posses

j. l.. Driskill and son about ten days
ago passed this place with 1900 head of
yearling steer cattle which they took
from their old Cimarron range and
which they are taking to their extensive
range on the Little Missouri, Montana.
These are all haf-breed stock of their

as any through Texas two-year-olds we
ever saw. 1t is nice lot and willmake
valuable acquisition to their northern
