B. B. A. NOTES

1t is not too late to mention the de-
licious Christmas dinner which wa
served to the students just before the,
went home. No doubt Mrs. Mcdonald
has not forgotten how she used to en-
Joy such treats when she was in board
ing schools. We consider ourselves
fortunate in having such splendid
matron. She not only plans plenty Of
various well-prepared edibles. but she
comes as near taking mothers place
TO every boy and girl here as Is posi-
BILE for matron. Since she has been
at B. B. A. We have never known her
to get angry. She is never too busy
or tired to talk with and encourage
some homesick student. These are the
sentiments OF all the members of our
young mems and ladies' societies.
Wednesday before Christmas. as the
students marched into supper their at
tention was attracted to handsome
sideboard which Mr.. E. F. Parks had
quietly placed in the dining room for
a Christmas gife to B. B. A. Ut Is extra
large and OF superior grade, conse-
quently an expensive piece of furni-
ture. 1t adds very much to the looks
OF our pretty dining hall. We appre-
ciate II because OF its utility, its value,
its beauty, and most Of all because II
has been voluntarily given by one OF
our valued friends
The vacancy caused by the resigna-
ton OF Mr.. Voris has been amply Sled
hy the election OF Miss Crouch, whn
Is graduate of Baylor and comes
highly recommended. 1t has already
been whispered among the student:
that she Is not here for play.
We extend to all the pastors in town
special invitation to come out to our
chapel exercises and give us some
more OF those fine talks. This invita-
ton Is extenied not to the pastors
alone hut to airy friend who would
kindly encourage us to that extent.

A Thrifty Negro.

An Illinois negro who was born a
slave has just died. possessed Of an
estate valued at $4,000. He made his
money by farming and through the
rise in the values of lands which he
had bought That avenue to independ.
ence, the requirement OF land, was
open to most any industrious negro,
and some few took advantage Of their
greatest opportunity, as did this ILL
nois man. But as rule. the negro
has gotten as far away as possible
from the farm, where he might have
become prosperous.-Temple Tele

A BEAUTIFUL NEW
YEAR GREETING
To the People Of Bryan Who Bought
Red Cross Seals:

To the People Of Bryan Who Bought
Red Cross Seals:
The holidays of 1911, with all OF
their festivities, pyrotechnics, merry
making, balls, parties and generous
dispensing of presents and aims, have
passed into history and the dial plate
of time has ushered ia the glad New
Year of 1912. A few weeks prior to
the Christmas holidays Mrs. Erwin As
tin, chairman for the sale of the Red
Cross seals, made an appeal to tie
Bryan people, requesting them to pur-
chase these seals, thereby advancing
good cause. Nobly did the public
respond, thus enabling Mrs. Astin to
forward to Mrs. Colquitt at Austin
$S7 as Bryan's contribution for the
building of a sanitarium for afflicted
children.
Mrs. Astin is deeply grateful to al
who so generously assisted her in this
work of sweet charity, and in spirit
of love and gratitude she expressed
the hope that
The New Year be happy one to
you, happy to many more whose hap

INTERSTATE CON-
MERGE WEEK
Supreme Court Will Hear Railroad
Rate Cases and Conflicts Between
Commerce Commission and
Commerce Court.
[By Associated Press.I

Washington, Jan. 6.-"Interstate
commerce week" will be observed In
the supreme court of the United States
beginning Monday. Practically all Of
the questions to be argued that week
are connected with railroad or steam
ship traffic.
The first case to be considered In
wolves whether shippers may be in
dicted for accepting rebates unless 1t
is shown that the railroad concerned
had posted the regular rates at the
railroad station at point Of origin. 1t
was held by Judge Speer Of Georgia
that the posting of the regular rates
In the community in which the shipper
lived was such an important means OF
information that the shipper could not
be indicted, unless 1t was allebed the
rates had been posted. This ruling oc-
Cured in the indictments OF Harvey
C. Miller and Morris F. Miller of Phil
adelphia on charges of accepting con-
cessions for shipments over the Mer-
chants G Miners Transportation Com
pany, jointly with the Seaboard Air
Line and with the Atlantic Coast Line.
Another case is the quarter-century
fight of Cincinnati shippers for lower
rates to Chattanooga and the South.
In 1894 shippers induced the interstate
commerce commission to order a
sharp reduction of rates over the Gin
cinnati, New Orleans & Texas Pacific
road from Cincinnati to Chattanooga.
Courts held that the commission could
not fix a future rate Later when this
power was conferred upon 1t the COM
mission reduced first class rates to 70
cents and held that while demand
for 60-cent rate might be reasonable
on road direct to Chattanooga, 1t
would not be so on the Louisville &
Nashville and connecting lines. Fur
thermore, the commission held that to
reduce the rate to 60 cents might make
inequitable certain rates from Mem
phis to Chattanooga, and to Atlanta
Birmingham, Montgomery and other
Southern cities. The Cincinnati ship
pers made an unsuccessful attempt In
the commerce court to have the 70
cent rate declared unjust and unrea
sonable.
Whether a loophole really exists IT
the immigration laws, such as would
allow steamship companies to shift
the responsibility for bringing In i'm
migrants OF the excluded classes, will
be argued before the court. A New
York court held that while the purpose
of congress seemingly was to make
the steamship companies pay the cos
of returning such immigrants as are
denied entrance, there was nothing IL
the law to prevent the companies from
crcumventing the law by requirin.
these immigrants to put up securit.
in foreign ports to cover the cost o
returning them If rejected.
