NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC.

We wish to state that the attend,
ance at the School of Business has
been beyond our most sanguine expec,
tations. We have enrolled thirty
seven students to date with several
new ones due to enter next Monday,
Nov. l. We stated at the beginning
that if we received forty students by
January /, 1910, we would consider it
a pronounced success. Some of the
more cautious and wary are holding
back to see whether the school will
remain or succeed; to all such we
wish to state: That prudence is neces-
sary to success; it is true it never
catches the early worm, but at the
same time is not so liable to get
caught. We are here permanently Jun
til the good people of Palestine show
by lack of sufficient patronage to JUS
tify us to remain. We have leased
our rooms for one year, from Sept. 1,
1909, and we will remain here till
then with or without support. If at
expiration of that time we see that
the school is not wanted, we will be
justified in going elsewhere. We
have been in session just eight weeks
and have averaged over four students
per week With the cooperation we
have been assured of we predict that
we shall soon build up a school that
will be credit to ourselves and
help to Palestine.
Respectfully
H. C. Jameson, Principal.

Pity it is that so many men are not
satisfied to let well enough alone
East Texas comprises large scope
of country where the thrifty farmer
can make a living every year with
something over to lay aside for the
future. 1t is the same way in every
section of the state, and the man is
acting unwisely to leave his old neigh
bors and move out among strangers on
account of short crop or for any
other reason. And those boys who
are hiking back to East Texas will
do justice to themselves and families
by staying back when they get back.

And they will stay here when once

now will be among our best satisfied

A Tiuer In Wales.

Some years ago II was reported that
tiger had escaped from travelling
menagerie at Brecon. in Wales. Man
gled sheep were said TO mark its
course across country to Llandrindod
Wells. some farmers lost their dogs
and on market days at Builth, Brecon,
Penybont and Llanmarrach the wild
beast was the center of rumor Coun-
try schools were closed because par
ents feared to let heir children go
along the roads. and bands of armed
men sought to hunt the tiger down.
This state of terror lasted week,
though no person was found who had
actually seen the tiger, but only people
who had heard that some one else"
and so forth Then the truth was
hunted down and the origin of the
whole affair discovered at the remote
hamlet of Eberedw. One night the
schoolmaster there. in dismissing the
children. playfully had warned them
not to loiter in going home lest a tiger
should get them.
The scared children accepted the
warning as real and FASTENED home
with stories Of n savage beast lurking
behind hedges or growing in ravines
And so the story grew as stories do
under the culture of imagination.

on the occasion of his recent marriage.
Gotch said he intended to put every
