THE IDLE RICH.

Referring to the efforts of The
Eagle to secure strict enforcement
Of the laws against yagrancy, Bryan
woman, who is herself in Independent
circumstances, remarked to the ed
itor: 1T is all right, of course, to in
sist on Kidding the town of vagabonds,
but why have you nothing to say
about the idle rich? There are young
men, and some not so young, who do
nothing but loaf on the streets and
in the billiard halls and club rooms,
or, worse still, in the saloons. They
are neither useful nor ornamental
This is true not only in Bryan but
in all towns, large and small. 1t is
also true that it is an evil for which
a remedy should be sought, and the
quest should be continued until the
remedy is found, for there is a rem
edy for every evil
Every right thinking person admits
that no one who is able to work has
a right to live in idleness. This truth
is plainly taught in both the Jewish
and Christian scriptures, and in the
writings of the great philosophers of
all ages and nations. The divine law
is tersely stated by st. Paul in II
Thessalonians, $40: III any would
not work neither should he eat.
Making the application of this general
law to the case in point, the apostle
goes on to say: For we hear that
there are some who walk among you
disorderly, working not at all, but are
busybodies. Now them that are such,
we command and exhort by our Lord
Jesus Christ that with quietness they
work and eat their own bread
In the same connection the great
apostle admonishes Christians to
withdraw Fellowship from the idle-to
ostracise them socially-in order that
they may be ashamed of their worth
lessness. This suggests the remedy.
Idleness should be made disreputable.
The loafer. no matter what his finan-
cial standing, has no more right to
pretend to responsibility than any
other lawbrealer. This is one among
many things in regard to which public

IN SOCIAL CIRCLES
MIR. and Mrs. Moran Compliment Visit
ing Young Ladies' with Dance
Thursday Evening at EIks' Hall.


Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Moran, of A. &
M. campus, proved themselves admir-
able as host and hostess on Thursday
evening, when they entertained with
an enjoyable dance given at the Elks'
club rooms in Bryan, complimentary
to Misses Frances Davis of College,
Bessie Foscue of Waco, Ida Harrison
of Waco and Annie Stuart of Terrell.
One hundred or more young people
thronged the brilliantly Illuminated
hall and danced to teh inspiring strains
of the waltz and two-step.
The dance programs were in booklet
form, beautifully lettered in gold, bear
ing the names of the honorees, and
the handsome hall never held mer-
rier or gayer assemblage. Sixteen
numbers and four extras were danced
to the sweet accompiment of Harris
orchestra, which rendered the most
popular dance music of the day.
This pleasant affair opened with the
grand march, which was delightful
feature of the evening. Mr.. and Mrs.
Moran were the leaders. All present
felt themselves indebted to these hos
pitable people who made possible the
pleasant evening.

opinion needs to be corrected, and
this can only be done by education.
The loafer is barnacle on society,
a species of human vermin, living of
the labor of others and rendering no
compensation for what he receives,
Why should any honest man or WON
an respect such a thing?
And the loafers are not all of the
masculine gender. 1t Is all right to
enjoy diversions of society as a recrea'
ton, but the woman who makes a
business of 1t and does nothing but
seek to amuse and entertain herself
is as culpable as her loafer brother
who haunts the billiard halls and sa-
looms.
Idleness is disreputable and II
should be made punishable by the
statute law, and when the world be-
comes truly civilized 1t will be SO.

OF the Methodist church was filled to
overfowing with sweet, dainty girls
and boys. This class. under the able
leadership of Miss Lille Hall, with
Mrs. E. W. Crenshaw as assistant, has
increased remarkably this past year.

A sure remedy to use when you
take hand in another's business Is
broth, hot water drinks and mush
poultice, eaten off the mantelpiece.
When the calf gets in the garden, and
the COW eats up the corn;
When you stay in the field till one
o'clock, not nearing the dinner
horn,
Don't fuss and cuss and worry, but
be happy all. the while;
Wipe the sweat from off your fore
head and smile six-inch smile.
When Beck kicks out of the traces and
rakes YOU on the shin.
And it's just about the time of year
when the boil weevils begin,
Don't fuss and fume and worry in
pessimistic style;
Just sit right down and rest awhile,
and smile that six-inch smile.
It's easy to be happy and smile in
stead of frown;
You can be the jolliest guy of all
within this jolly town.
So doff the cloak of sorrow, don the
robe of joy awhile;
Shake hands with everyone you meet,
and smile that six-inch smilel
