The CITY SCHOOLS

The city teachers very much appre-
ciate the banquet rendered to all the
public school teachers of Bryan and
Brazos county by the Commercial
Club. This was an institute banquet,
as those who worked in the two insti-
tutes, city and county, were the hon.
orees of the occasion. 1t was grace
full compliment paid the teachers of
our children, and was well merited by
them. They are doing faithful work

Besides the system mentioned
above, the state of Texas provides a
splendid system of professional and
technical training. The departments
of law and medicine of the University
of Texas, the A. & M. College for boys,
the College of Industrial Arts for
girls, and the four state normal
schools-these furnish training in all
needed lines except in theology.

Sam Houston's Retort.

General Sam Houston was master
OF stump speaking and bitter lnvective.
Once while addressing large audi
ence he was interrupted and asked
what he thought of a certain politi-
clan. Without hesitation he replied.
HE has every characteristic OF dog
except fidelity"

Adxantanss Of kits

The London Tailor and Cutter OBJ
serves with its usual keen insight into
human nature: mo one has yet sug.
gested the utility of kits. They never
bag at the knees. nor do they ever
require patching at that part, and their
hygienic properties are proverbial."

| Just how to direct public sentiment
SO as to get the things schools need
most is a problem with ali superin-
tendents. A few years ago certain
city built fine buildings costing APP
proximately 100000, and then put a
graduate of a three years normal
course to teach a four years high
school course. Misdirected public
sentiment prided itself in fine build
ings and then let the inside work of
the schools suffer in consequence.
They should have had teachers with
degrees at the head of all depart
ments. as Bryan has, and then made
the other improvements.

A CHANGE OF PLANS.


| didn't think it possible, an Molly
didn't; she,
Whilst we was talkin' of it seemed to
feel about like me;
That is that twas our duty for to
take a child to raise,
An so on Monday mornin' | went
out an hitched the grays,
An drive up to the side door, an
stood there an helped her climb
To the front seat an settle down
there ulster be time
She didn't need no helpin' in no
wagon to my word,
She would flutter to that front seat
light an sassy as bird;
Then Hiram let the bars down an
we went a-rattlin through,
And we headed towardst the city to
do what we had to do.
1t seems like that orphant 'sylum-
as the boys says got my goat;
There's choky sort O. feelin' seems
to get me by the throat
Even yet a thinkin' of tall the
kids in two long rows,
Not a one that had a mother for to
wipe its little nose
Or to hear it's Now | lay me- when
it Struggled down to bed
Or to stoop to leave her kisses on it's
little tousled head;
We had fingered when we went to
take little orphant out
We would take boy, an choose one
that looked full O. vim, an stout.
So that when the years did grip us,
an our eys got sorter dim
We could finish up the journey sort
o'leanin' some on him.
seen the one we picked
out, though she's lookin different
now;
She looked weak an scared an trem-
lin, till couldn't tell you how
Our hearts seemed to reach an'reach
out, till our arms just reached
out, too;
There was chunky boys a-plenty, but
no other child would do!
Why her little eyes seemed brimmin'
with growed up persons woes,
An she looked so plum forsaken in
them orphant 'sylum clo'es
We just itched to sign the papers
that would make her ourn, an
she
Seemed to want to be our baby,
that's the way it looked to me;
IN whilst they fixed up the papers
Molly held her to her breast,
OWN of her 'gainst her bosom,
leavin' me to do the rest.
IS we clattered out an homeward
the red sun was sinkin' down,
m the lights was comm blinkin' in
the windows of the town;
Jolly held her most the way home,
but when we drive through the
grove
was snugglin' OF the baby against
my heart whilst Molly drove;
IN she calls my Molly Mamma"
an her name for me is Dad"
m she loves us, an she's made us
twice as young an twice as glad!
n night times we hear her LAY
me-" kneelin' by her little bed, !,
n we stoop an leave our kisses on
her little tousled head;
hen we each leave other kisses on
her cheeks an eyes an hair;
or the other mother watchin for
her baby "over there"

In keeping with the American idea,
Texas provides complete system of
education so that every child in the
state can have a finished education,
passing through elementary school,
high school and university, including
the graduate work, without money
and without price, as the scriptures
say of salvation.

Reports from Prof. Oxley, who was
with us last year, are of very inter-
esting character. He is having a
great school of near three hundred
pupils, all being high school pupils
and an able corps of teachers. Prof.
Oxley teaches chemistry and physics,
and has the remainder of his time
for high school supervision under the
direction of the city superintendent.

Sociology is a great study these
days and is now one of the leading
courses offered in the great univer-
stiles. DR.. George E. Vincent. late of
the University of Chicago but recent
ly called to the presidency of the
University of Minnesota, won fame
for himself in this branch of study
All students of sociology are interest
ed in the study of public opinion, its
growth, it's power and its direction.
1t is a great study and the new course
in social psychology gives evidence
of increasing interest in the subject.

Five years ago, when the present
superintendent took charge, there
we're only three teachers with life
certificates in the city schools, but
now there are ten. What a change
that represents in the ability of those
called to instruct the children! The
three holding life certificates at that
time were Mr.. A. w. Kinnard, Miss
Wesa Wellington and Miss May Bur-
tbs. The ten now holding such GER
tificates are the same three and in
addition the following: Miss Ray
Montgomery, Miss Lucy Christian,
Miss Annie bearing, Mr. George
Simpson, Mr.. Roscoe Bates, and at
the colored school Felix Goosby and
Elijah Alonzo Kemp.

AS was said at the meeting, the
public schools of Bryan have part
in this great work, and in the brief
space of five years they have risen
from a low place in the second-class
Bryan daily eagle and pilot. [volume] (Bryan, Tex.) 1909-1918, 1912-10-04

to the first-class as rated by the Uni
versity of Texas. This fact tells its
own story as to the progress made in
that time. Still, there are other ad-
vanced steps needed.
