important Meeting.

The attention of our readers is di-
rected to the change in date of the
meeting called in these columns re
Gently for Jan. 6 at the courthouse in
Bryan. The date has been changed
to Tuesday, Jan. ., at p. m. instead
of Wednesday the 9Th, and the reason
for making the change is that the
quarterly meeting of the Farmers
Union will be held at Cottonwood
Jan. and I, and it is desired to have
all the progressive farmers of the coun-
ty present at the courthouse meet
ing. The meeting will be addressed
by Prof c. II. Alvord, a member of
the faculty of the A. and NJ. College,
who will speak on the subject Of
creameries and Mr.. r. c. Campbell of
Brennan, who will discuss the grow
ing of Irish potatoes in commercial
quantities and for the money that can
be realized from same. The meeting
will be one of interest and value, and
will doubtless be attended largely by
the progressive element of our farm
ers.

AID FOR ITALY.
Efforts to Help the Stricken People
Will Be Made Today.


Relief lists will be circulated here
today by a committee of Italian-Amer-
leans in an effort to raise funds for
procuring necessities for the home
less thousands who still survive the
disaster which has overwhelmed
large part of Italy, and who have had
everything they possessed swept
from them and destroyed in the great
est cataclysm the world has ever
known.
Cables yesterday estimated the dead
at from 100000 to 100000 as a result
of the upheavel and the tidal wave
which followed.
The need for help is urgent, and it
is proper that the citizens of Italian
descent should take the initiative in
the laudable work.
So far as the Eagle could ascer-
tain yesterday no relatives of any OF
the Italian citizens of this section are
believed to have been injured or suf
fered loss by the horror. 1t seems
that nearly all of our people came
from the west side of the peninsular
while the havoc by the recent up
heaval was wrought on the east side

San Francisco, Cal, Dec. 3O-The
opposition of California merchants and
shippers to the increased freight
rates announced by the Southern Pa
cific and Santa Fe roads to become ef-
rective with the beginning of the new
year is to be voiced at simultaneous
mass meetings arranged to take place
tonight in many parts of the State.
The purpose of the meetings, as stat

ito demonstrate to the transcontinen-

that the people of California have no
intention of paying the increases OF
freight rates which it is proposed to

THE OLD AND THE NEW.
Joe M'Gee.)

Joe M'Gee.)
The good old year is passing out,
Soon it will be no more.
The new one comes in with a shout,
With all its life before.
It's time again to make our VOWS,
And promises anew,
To tell our neighbors and kinfolk
What we are going to do.
We're going to live better life
And try to do more good,
And never leave our patient wife
To cut her own stovewood.
Going to spend our evenings home
Instead of at the club,
And when she some times has to wash
Wen always fill the tub.
Then she will meet us with a kiss,
Just as she used to do,
And home again will taste of bliss
The sky will seem more blue.
We're going to cut expenses down,
And live within our means,
And have no masters in our town
BY giving them no liens.
And when the Lords day comes
why then,
Wen always fill our pew,
And when the preacher says amen,
Well say that amen, too.
Remember. friend, you made this VOW
Just one short year ago,
How does your promise stand just
now?
We'd like so much to know.
It's best TO make no promises,
Unless you make them good
Lest you behold a fallen wreck
Where once your castle stood.
