PLANS FOR A. & N. COLLEGE
!. N. c. A. BU|LD|hG
viii Be Located Opposite Proposed
Administration Building-Funds
Already Coming In.

The tentative plans for the alumni
memorial Y. NJ. c. A. building to be
erected on the campus OF A. & M.
college, which have been prepared by
F. E. Giesecke, an alumnus of the col
lege, who is college architect as well
as professor of architectural engineer
ing and drawing, contemplate mod
efn classic style of architecture, APP
proximately in the shape of cross,
which will be very appropriate for a
YIN. C. A.
These plans have not yet been ac-
Jcepted They were submitted to a
meeting of the executive committee
at the college Monday. COL e. B.
Cushing, of Houston, presided at the
meeting, being chairman of the com.
mittee. The committee went over the
plans and the proposed structure was
discussed from every detail, but no
action has been taken pending the
general canvass for contributions that
will be made. More than $4,000 has
already been subscribed for the build
ing and much of this is already COM
ing in.
According to the plan Of the campus
which has been drawn by Architect
Giesecke and approved by the board
of directors of the college, this build
ing is to be located to the left of the
main driveway to the campus proper,
and future administration building
is to be on the other side of the main
driveway, so that visitors arriving at
the college will be greeted by the adj
ministrative officers of the college on
the right and welcomed by the Y. VI.
c. A. and the alumni association on
the left.
When building first commenced
upon the campus of A. & NJ. college
there was no future considered Any
class of architecture was accepted and
buildings were located without regard
to others to be later constructed. The
idea appears to have been that the
college property consisted Of 2416
acres of land, and there was room to
spread. Now 1t is problem to prop

erly group the buildings, and 1t is this
task that Mr.. Giesecke as college arch
itect has had for the past two or three
years. He has finally mapped the
plan as>ft is thought best, in order to
grodp new buildings around the old
ones. and this plan has been approved
The general idea that Mr. Giesecke
has in planning buildings for the
campus is to adopt style of archi-
lecture adapted to modern methods
of construction. This is an age of
steel and reinforced concrete, which
materials are adapted especially for
the construction of columns and
beams. that is the type of construc-
ton which was employed by the
Greeks as distinguished from the type
of construction employed during the
medieval period when buildings were
constructed as rule OF small stones
cemented together to form arches and
vaults. As Mr.. Giesecke expressed II,
the business man of today Is not
going to break up rock and cement the
pieces together in order to get an imi-
tation of work done four hundred or
six hundred years ago.
The building proposed for the
alumni memorial Y. VI. c. A. will face

Seed Corn for Corn Club BOYS.

Help from new source is offered
to the boys corn contest clubs. B. c.
Rhome, Jr., secretary and manager of
the National Feeders and Breeders
show at Fort Worth, went to the
Texas corn growers convention at
Corsicana and bought fifty ears of the
prize-winning corn, which will be
given to the boys of these clubs. Good
seed corn is as necessary as good
culture in making big yield, and
many OF the boys are not able to pan
the high prices asked for premium
corn. The Feeders and Breeders show
is primarily for the encouragement of
livestock raising in the Southwest, but
the management recognizes that the
foundation of stock raising is corn
growing. and that more corn means
more cattle and hogs of better quail
ity. The show, March 1918, will be
attended by many of the boys of the
corn clubs.

FRIDAY, JANUARY 27, 1911.
ANNUAL MEETING AND BANoUET.

The first annual meeting and ban
quet of the Commercial Club was a
success from every point of view.
Being the first event of the kind in
the history of Bryan, it will be remem-
bered as a landmark between the old
and the new. 1t was educational and
inspirational. Every seat at the tables
was filled and there was not man
present who did not learn much that
he had never thought of before. The
only criticism possible is that in the
attempt to cover all the ground the
program was too long. The menu also
was more elaborate than the occasion
demanded-three or four courses
would have been enough Yet there
was not dull moment. Everybody
was wide awake and full of enthusi-
asm. 1t used to be thought that at a
banquet, wit and wine were insep-
arabic, but on this occasion the SUI
perabundance of wit made up for the
lack of wine.
The secretary's report succinctly
reviewed the work of the year and the
magnitude Of what has been accom-
plished and started was revelation.
The bylaws were amended so that
five, instead of seven, including the
presiding officer and secretary, shall
constitute quorum of the board of
directors. This and the reelection by
standing vote of all the officers of the
club were the only important matters
Of business.
Tyler Haswell is eminently right in
the opinion that street paving should
follow the installation of water plant
and sewer system. 1t would be bad
policy to lay pavements and then tear
them up to construct sewers and lay
water mains.
j. Allen Myers didn't scatter over
railroads in general, but concentrated
all attention on the imperative need
of building the Bryan G. Brazos River
line. His emphatic declaration that
the road must and shall be built
evoked much enthusiasm.
Dean Puryear concisely and clearly
showed that the best way for Bryan
to help A. & NJ college is to make
Bryan the best town in Texas.
Judge Boards talk on good roads
was fine example of multum in

"I'vE HAD MY DAY."

An old, decrepit, time-worn hound,
am /,
On three legs limping-I, who ran
so fleet.
My muzzle grey, and dim and bleared
the eye
Which saw so keen and led my
flying feet.
My jaws with broken teeth now harm
less, quite

pack;
Those polished fangs terrific in the
fight,
Tearing the grey VOLTS throat-he
on his back.
My springing limbs which swept me
on before,
Like swift wind, across the bound
less plain,
Smashing the quarry, shall do so no
more,
And now all shrunken are and rent
with pain.
I'll taste no more the hot and furious
fray.
Eyes dim, legs stiff, teeth gone
I've had my day.

A. NJ. Waldrop surprised his friends
by demonstrating that he Is a natural

which he discoursed upon Bryan's
trade territory and how to hold it,
showed that all he needs is practice

he does not hereafter bury his talent
A. w. Buchanan insisted on the i'm

Prof. ]. H. Allen, in telling How

chiefly the Importance of improving

this end he strongly advocated a

declaration.

In chaste, well-rounded periods, with

CONTRIBUTED BY
COMMERCIAL SECRETARIES.

A bill has been introduced in the
legislature providing for the reclama-
ton of vast number of acres of land
now covered by heavy growth OF
cactus in Southwest Texas which, If
cleared of this undesirable plant,
could be converted into excellent
farming and grazing land. Expert
ments recently made with this cactus
have proved that the juice therefrom
can be converted into denatured al
cohol at an expense of only Is cents
per gallon, while the market price Of
this article is from S5 cents to 81 per
gallon. The pulp from the cactus is
valuable for making paper and is
more desirable for this purpose than
wood pulp, which is ordinarily used.
The reclamation of this land would
mean mucn 10 ludt seVtioh vi tho
state, as the heavy growth renders
the land of little value for any other
and the counties in which the
cactus is to be found in the largest
quantities are the ones in which fuel
is scarce and from this point of view
would be much benefited by convert.
ing the cactus into fuel.
