also the new chiffons, taffetas and silk
foulards, crepe meteors and ribbon
striped voils. Within the various show
cases were the novel conceits for the
finishing of milady's toilet; the fringes,
rich landings, drop laces, pipings,

clares good" for this season, and
these were given close and admiring
attention.
No less charming was the array of
this seasons footwear, in every shape
and color, also a full line of tempting
silk and Isle hosiery in corresponding
tints and quality.
Once within the millinery and
ready-to-wear departments, the crowds
seemed to remain indefinitely, and
when the Eagle reporter called it was
impossible to really examine the elab-
crate display of hats, but it was inter
esting to hear the unstinted praise be-
slowed upon them by those who were
close enough to see, and to witness
the proud satisfaction on many pretty
faces as a perfectly darling" spring
bonnet was donned before the mirror.
A general survey gave to us the fol-
lowing: All the shapes have style and
nearly all are beautiful in one way or
another. Never in hat history have
flowers been so superb and so neces-
sary; the colors are lovely and the
qualities are marvels. Masses of tiny
flowers and wreaths of big fiat roses,
heaps of foliage and groups of in
buds are all artistic and
becoming when pressed into trimmings

SPRING OPENING DAY
tore of Sam 3. Wilson Thronged with
Ladies' Eager to See Seasons
Offerings in Millinery.

Bright spring weather came this
horning, adding real charm to Sam
B. Wilson's millinery opening and al
pwing the ladies of Bryan and vicinity
b visit this beautifully decorated store
ghich had been prepared for their re-
|eption on this date.
The continued bad weather of the
last several weeks has necessitated
he wearing of winter wraps, hats and
Iurs In spite of the fact that it is
pringtime on the calendar. After such
forced companionship with "old
pohtes," the fresh, dainty spring fan
les and bright, rosy hues of the sea-
pms "buds and blossoms" that greet

Wilson's store today were. positively
khilerating and satisfying. Eagerly

several seasons past delighted her Gus
toners in this city, and who this
spring seems unusually competent, be,
cause of the recent preparation term
of study in New York City. She is
ably assisted again this year by Miss
Lena Wetter, Miss Johnson, Miss God,

1t is quite impossible to tell of all
the beautiful things in the various de-
partments of the store, but every line
is attractive and decidedly up-to-date.
The opening will continue through to-
morrow and the management extends
a cordial invitations to everybody to
attend.

MILLINERY OPENING
EDGE DRY GOODS CO.

! The Edge Dry Goods Company has
; this season added a complete and at
tractive millinery department to their
large dry goods stock, and today and
tomorrow mark the formal opeing of
this new enterprise. At the appointed
hour this morning the doors were
opened to an immense crowd COM
posed of the ladies of Bryan, College
and surrounding country, who had
come in response to the invitation is
sued through The Eagle by this pop
ular firm. The second floor Of the
building has been transformed into the
ladies department, and here the fash
ionable millinery and also the up-to.
date ready-to-wear goods were artistic
ally displayed.
The Edge Dry Goods Company had
the good fortune to secure for their
initial season in millinery Miss Marie
Rettig of st. Louis, who is a trimmer
of extraordinary ability, as well as a
lady of charming personality. She is
ably assisted by Miss Kate Eaves and
Mrs. Edna Knox. All that Dame Fash
ion has planned for miladys headgear
in the spring of 1912 is extensively
displayed, and the appreicative GUS
toners who came today to enjoy the
feast of fashion" were enthusiastic in
their praise of the offerings shown.
Beautiful real carnations were gener-
ously given as souvenirs of the occa-
sion.
The recent transforms having dam
aged much of the new spring dress
goods, the management advertised that
on this day also these goods would be
sold at sacrifice, and thus it was
that a double attraction drew the
crowds to this store. And in neither
department was there cause for dis
appointment, but instead much to
please and to praise The bargains Of
fered are rare and inviting, and were
taken advantage of most substantially.
And thus another millinery parlor
for Bryan was launched most auspi-
ciously and given a cordial and appre-
ciative welcome by an the ladies'.

N. o. SCHOOL OF TROPICAL
MEDICINE AND HYGIENE

Beginning with the September term,
1911, the medical department of Tu-
lane University, New Orleans, inau-
gurated laboratory and systematic
ard preventive medicine. 1t is the
intention of the university to develop
this feature of the medical school and
obtain a sufficient endowment to
broaden 1t in to a full school of tropi-
cal medicine and hygiene, embracing
all the divisions Of such an institu-
ton. New Orleans Is peculiarly we'll
located for the establishment of such
school, being a semitropical city in
which numerous cases of the semi
tropical and tropical diseases appear
and being in close proximity to and in
the line of travel from the Central
and South American countries. The
opening Of the Panama Canal with its
traffic from the south and the east
Will also doubtless furnish much ma
terial and opportunity for the study
of tropical diseases. Already the uni
versity has developed some efficient
men in the study of these diseases,
notably in leprosy, hookworm, pella-
gra and malaria, Bass, in his recent
study and cultivation Of malaria, hay
ing opened up a new avenue In the
| study Of tropical diseases. The en-.
terprise and scientific foresight of Tu-
lane University in establishing the
| first school of tropical medicine in
America should be encouraged by a
sufficient endowment to enable 1t to
carry on the work with the greatest
effectiveness. The Journal of the
American Medical Association says
that the nearness of the opening of
the Panama Canal and the consequent
stimulation of travel to and from
countries makes the present time par
! ticularly opportune for the establish
ment of such a school.
