than the University of Texas should
consult the principal as early in their
course as possible, as it may be neces-
sayy to make special arrangements to
meet special requirements. The High
school will not encourage short cuts"
TO college. A thorough preparation for
college work is much more important
than the mere gaining of a half year
or year in time. Experience proves
that graduates Of the school who are
recommended to college usually main
tain a good rank in college, while schol-
ars who succeed in entering college be-
fore completing their High school
course often fail. Nevertheless, every
reasonable facility will be offered to
students Of ability and sufficient matu-
rity who may wish to gain time in
their college preparatory work.

ing. tbs good thing to believe in dreams,
but to believe in them in the right way. A
bad dream is warning. 1t is sign that

has its effect on the nerves and the nerves,
on the brain. Imperfect digestion means
imperfect nutrition. 1t means that the
strength and food that ought to go into
the blood from the digestive organs-that
should go to build the tissues that waste
every day-is being perverted and is doing
no good. 1t means that there will be loss
of solid, strengthful flesh that the nerves
will be uncovered just that much that de-
bility will ensue and that the mans body
is ready for the reception of disease-germs.
