tn see what arrangements could be
made toward establishing college

would like TO secure the city hall
building if possible, but until they
make known their wants we cannot
tell much about the enterprise. IL,
however. they should secure that
building they would remodel il and
fix il up in first class shape. The
basement would be fitted up for a
gymnasium and chemical labora-
tory, and in fact the whole building
would be made to shine like new.
Prof. Browning is AT present in
charge of the Webb City college.
but il anxious To leave there and he
says he will contract to remain here
for term of years.
Prof. Bowman, as our people well
know, ii man perfectly capable of
running almost any branch of a
college, and with the assistance OF
p; Of. Browning would establish AN
institution of learning here second
to none in the West. Our people
should leave TO stone uNturned to
a college in Baxter. for
good schools are good advertise
inents for a city.
