HEROES OF TEXAS
REVOLUTION.

Having been requested to prepare
an essay for the closing of school, [
choose as my subject '9The Heroes
of Texas"
All of you that have any knowl-
edge of Texas history must surely
remember some of the heroes that
freed this grand Lone Star state
from the Mexican rule. Ever since
the discovery of Texas, Mexico
claimed and tried to get Texas
under the Mexican rule.
The first of heroes was S. F.
Austin, who went to the city of
Mexico to get q separate govern
ment for Texas, but it was refused
him.
The first battle was a victory for
the brave Texans. In this battle
1856 Texans defeated $40 Mexicans.
Austin was conspicuous in this
battle.
Another hero who must be re-
membered is old Ben, Milan, who
was killed at San Antonio.
On March 9th, you all know that
Texas greatest heroes died; among
whom were Crockett, BonhS m,
Bowie and Travis. Bowie was on
a cot, sick, when the Mexicans
found him. suppose you all
know what answer he gave Santa
Anna when Santa Anna told him
to keep still.
Crockett came from Tennessee
and was the greatest bear hunter
ever known. He also died' like a
hero.
Travis was Young man when he
passed away; Vexas lost one Of her
greatest heroes.
After the sacrifice, the bodies of
these brave Texans were burned.
The next one of Texas heroes to
pass away was Col. Fannin. 1t
was at Goliad that he surrendered.
You also know his three requests,
which were all broken.
After these events happened,
Houston, who was captain then,
was raisingan army to free Texas.
In this he succeeded. On the DIST

PRIZE ESSAYS.
The following prize compositions
were written by boys 10 and II
years old, pupils of the Sinner pub
lie school.
GINNING.

Ginning is the process of separat-
ing the lint from the seed.
In olden times it was much more
tedious as it was done by hand;
but now it is done by machinery.
The first gin was invented by
Eli Whitney in the year 1893.
Whitney's gin has been improved
a good deal since it was invented,
and now ii nearly perfect.
There are many different kinds
of gins; as the Winship, Lunnis,
Brown, Smith and many others.
Before the gin was invented it
took a family about a week to pick
the seed out OF Il hundred pounds,
but now q bale of five hundred can
be ginned in twenty-five minutes
with one gin.
Ginning is not very profitable
now, but in early times it was a
very good business, for the ginners
would get from one dollar to one
dollar and fifty cents hundred.
We could not, however, do with
out gins now as it not only lightens
labor but gives employment to
many persons.
After the cotton has been ginned,
it is put up in large bales and then
sent away to foreign countries.
The cotton gins are in motion about
the last of August.
When the cotton is all open the
cotton comes to the gins every day.
The gins are crowded with bales
from morning till night. The cot
ton first goes through q suction
which draws it to the feeders and
they throw it into the gins. Then
they separate the seed and the lint,
and then it goes through the con-
denser which bungs it into the
press. A good days ginning with
four gins is about thirty to forty
bales.
There is very much trouble after
|
the gin season is over. Such as
shaping the saws, new brushes, new
belts and many other things.
The gin runs about three hun
I'dred revolutions in minute and
the brush about four hundred and
fifty revolutions. Anybody must
be very careful when the cotton is
wet, for the gins will choke them
selves and often a fire will break
out and will cause great damage.
Whenever the cotton is very wet
the most of it stays on the seed and
goes into the seed house. Some
people think when they make their
cotton wet they will gain, but they
will lose and he oil mill will have
the profit.
A gin can berun about ten years,
then it isn't any account any more.
It will take as much to repair the
old one as to get new one.
There are many men. required to
do the work around gin. One is
needed to ran the gins, four at the
press, one to fire. one to watch the
engine, and several to haul the seed.
The seed is taken to the oil mill
where it is ginned once more and
then pressed for the oil which is in
the seed. The oil is very valuable.
The ginners gin for different
prices-40, so and 60 cents hun
dred, In 1896 the ginners ginned
for so cents and gave the bagging and
ties with it. The people are hard
to please now; they always think
that some ofthoir cotton gets lost.

James Knight in his Food and Its
Functions" says in substance. in speak
ing Of the alimentatiou Of old age, that
the disappearance of teeth in advanced
years indicates change in the food
taken, since the stomach can no longer
endure the strong food Of former days
The period of decline Is characterized
by several organic changes. The muscles
lose their tone, and this occurs not only
in the voluntary muscles, but also in
the coats of the intestines, giving rise to
special disturbances This want of tone
affects also the blood vessels and the
circulation generally, while the digest
i've system becomes weaker, and the
mental powers share in the decreasing
vitality. For healthy old age the body
should be lean and spare, like that of
schoolboy, the fat and rich foods being
reduced in quantity, animal foods re-
stricted, one-fourth less or more, and
the meals small and often. If the decline
in energy is not met by q corresponding
diminution Of the demands upon it in
the form of digestive activity, the result
is sure to be accumulation of fat and re-
tarded and even retrograde metabolisn,
producing gout and rheumatism. In ad-
yancing age the food consumed should
approach that Of youth, and in second
childhood return be made 10 bread
and milk at the short intervals Of early
DAYS.
