A BRINKLEYITE IN vIR-
 GINA.
A Former Brinkley Man Writes Interesting Letter
 From Virginia.

Lexington, Va, May 2S, TO. Dear ARGUS:
 Twenty-Five years ago 1t was no unusual thing to see the boys and girls of Arkansas and Texas passing through Brinkley on their way to the schools of their fathers and mothers in old Vir- ginia. They usually travelled in special cars, and at times a single train would have two CT three of these cars. It was al- ways with a swelling heart and suppressed emotions that 1 lcok- ed upon the good fortune and S s)lendid opportunities accorded tlese young people; because within the bosom of the writer, then only a boy just emerging from his teens, there lived an ambition for collegiate educa- tion. I do not know when this desire first came into existence, for as far back as 1 can remem- Der longed for college train ing. That is why l bought books and kept one or two usually hide away wherever I worked. Dur ing all the years of my oil mill cxDdrience 1 kept a book near at hand, yet don't think l ever neglected my duties because of this.
 1 didn't start out to talk to you about myself. but to tell you that spent today at Stanton. Va, the home of Mary Baldwin Semi nary, where so many of our gills, in former days were sent for their college training. This school is situated in the mcuE- tains of northern Virginia, and for years has ranked as one of the best female colleges in the South, catering to the more cul- tured and moneyed classes for patronage. 1 was told today that students still come from the West, but this is no longer a ne- cessity, for Texas and Arkansas have as good schools as will be found elsewhere. Indeed, 1 think in some particulars that possibly they are better. 1 refer especially to the more progress i've spirit of our Western insti- tutions of learning as manifested both in their curriculums and descipline, or rules. Of course 1 do not speak with authority on this subject, but have visited so many of the schools from Vir- ginia to Texas that 1 am at least acquainted with the spirit of the varit Us institutions.
 Ism writing this from Lexing- ton, where stands the historic institution of Washington and Lee University. Because of Gen. Lees service here, to many this is sacred ground, and well it may be so when we understand and know the unsurpasSing character of the man the idol, not only of the soldiers who
