the North side will send large crowds
to the state fair for the same reason.

BAPTIST ACADEMY MAKES
TEMPORARY ARRANGEMENTS
School Work Continues Without Much
Inconvenience on Account
Of Recent Fire.

The fact that the boys dormitory of
the Bryan Baptist Academy was de-
stroyed by fire Monday has not in
any way retarded the school work at
that institution. The regular routine
of classes. study and general school
work has been maintained and there
has been very little inconvenience.
When the dormitory was burned
there were many citizens who opened
their homes to the male students and
were willing and ready to provide
rooms for them. but the faculty of the
institution decided to arrange the
main building in such way that all
of the students could be cared for.
The south part of the building was
arranged for the boys and the north
wing for the girls and teachers. Stu
dents and teachers now have their
home together and the school work
is progressing even better than before.
1t is of course a great blow to the
institution, which is in its infancy, but
there will be better building to re-
place the one destroyed by fire. The
academy has a bright future and its
advancement since it was made CO.
! educational can be plainly seen.

Texas to Pay Expense Of Provid-
ing Water for Cities.
Especial to The Bryan Eagle.l

Fort Worth, Texas, Nov. 30.-Fire
Chief Bideker, of this city. announced
today he viii urge the coming legis-
lature to eEact a measure providing
for the appointment by the governor
Of a state water commission. whose
duty will be to investigate sites for
large lake or reservoirs over The state
and thus supply many towns that con-
tinually face water famine in time OF
drouth. 1t is reasoned that If many
such lakes were established free the
state would be benefited not only by
the supply but increased rainfall
evaporation.
Fifty to one hundred million dollars
would be necessary to carry out such
large project, but it is pointed cut
that the state will get IL back from
benefits to crops and business.
