HIGH CLASS WOMEN NEEDED.

An English woman, who has gone to
India to practice medicine. states in a
letter to friend that it has been proven
that only through the enlightenment of
the high-class women of India can help
come to the Indian woman of lesser
rank, and the medical work of English
women is evidently to be the greatest
and most powerful lever for raising the
iron door that shuts the eastern women
from western freedom and culture. Fur
there that it is an unfortunate fact that
there are no more strenuous opponents
of any change in the position of India
women than most of the women them
selves. 1t is known to be no uncommon
thing for the mother of the family to
refuse to eat and make herself and
everybody else wretched if one of her
daughters is merely allowed to go to
school.

To the Board Of Aldermen Of the
City Of Bryan:
Att regular meeting Of the Board
Of Aldermen held on Friday night,
May 10, l9Oi, by a majority vote the
board repealed the stock law which

Your action dacs not meet my ap-

and horses were allowed 10 run al
