UNION WILL NEWS NOTES
Egg Man Writes EntertainingIy Of
the Hill, the A. e. M. College and
Brazos County in General.


AS / have noticed nothing from the
Hill for some time past, will pen a
few thoughts. The Hill is still on the
boom. Notice two residences going
up, MIR. Tom Carson's and Mr.. Harri.
sons. They will be quite an addition.
There are only few lots left and 1t
is very desirable location near the
interurban.
Crops are about all gathered and
made fair, but it is very dry Stock
water is getting scarce with many
tanks already dry. Notice Royals
pool has plenty of water, being now
fifteen feet in the deepest part, and
every body is welcome to water, and
to all the stock water they want too.
| wish we could plant fall gardens,
but it is too dry.
Ramsey, the groceryman, reports a
good trade. | notice Union Hill
girl Miss Sara Mills, clerking for
him. | reckon this is the cause of in
creased trade.
The Methodist protracted meeting
was grand success All of us were
much benefited and church organ
lied with membership of twenty
two, with Rev. CASTOR of Bryan as
pastor. Services every first Saturday
i.,ia In, oh nj ,nlz
day school every Sunday at 10 a. m;
Nathan Carson, superintendent. Ep-
worth League every Sunday night at
s o'clock; Brother Smith president,
and Miss Myrtle Andrews secretary
Oh, we Hill folk feel proud of our
citizenship and some Of our boys and
girls occupy many positions of trust
in different portions of these United
States. We try to keep the run OF
them the best We can. Do our other
neighborhoods of Brazos county do
the same? l notice one of our Hill
boys, John N. Royal, is now the head
of big coffee business in Waco, cap
italized at $4,000. 1t will be one of
the leading wholesale houses of Texas
about December, and in it's line will
undoubtedly be ranked without peer
Newell Royal was raised here at the
Hill and We are proud Of him.
Mr.. Editor, / would be glad now
and then to give history of our boys
and girls If you would care to publish
same. 1t might be an incentive for
some Others to try. We are thinking
that we may yet see Union Hill
boy governor of Texas, or some girl
matron of the statehouse, or of the
United States capitol. Who can tell?
We have the material and it only
needs cultivation. Buck" you and |
missed our high calling, but bless
your old soul we can help some of
our Brazos county boys and girls to
forge to the front.
notice College is improving much.
The saw, hammer, and other tools
are much in evidence. see many of
the instructors returning and getting
ready for the opening, which will be
soon. Colonel Miner, see, is as
| busy as a bee. He informed this
farmer that there would be a short
course for farmers this fall. and now
why can't at least one hundred OF the
farmers of Old Brazos take advantage
of this course? They can not realize
the benefit to be derived from these
courses unless they come over and
see Old boys, just come and get ac-
quainted One visit means a dozen.
Every instructor and every employe
will take pleasure in showing you
around and in entertaining you. |
speak from personal knowledge Just
ask for Col Bob Miner. He will show
or have you entertained, and | assure
you that you will leave with pleasant
impressions concerning the old A. & |
NJ. College.
Hurrah for Union Hill, College and
Bryan, and Brazos county in general!
Egg Man.
