Hon. T. S. Henderson of Cameron,
in letter to a citizen at Cause rela-
tive to the proposed road bond issue,
states a few hard facts that ought to
bear weight with those who would
vote against good road bonds. He
says: I'm order to have good roads
the people who own the taxable prop
erty will have to put up the money.
We have waited long time in Milan
County for good roads, and the reason
We haven't had them is that we have
never been willing to put up the money
necessary to secure them. Nobody
else is going to put up the money for
us, and we need not put it off any
longer, but had just as well deal with
it as business proposition, and there
by enjoy the benefits of good roads.
If / lived in the district / should GER
tainly vote for the bonds, and as a
taxpayer in the district | shall cheer
fully pay it if those who live in the
district vote for it." Mr.. Henderson,
let it be known, is one of the heaviest
taxpayers in the Cause district

Millinery of the sort that it is hard
to dispense with in church may be a
bit vain under the circumstances. But
physical comfort is necessary to men,
tai placidity; and the woman whose
hat is such that she wants it on her
head ought to be in a mental condi-
ton to appreciate the logic of the dis
course and in spiritual attitude to
lend attractions to the lesson that is
in the sermon and the prayer and
the choir. Besides, the hours of the
early Sabbath morning ought not to
be devoted to coiffure-for that
takes lot of time.-Galveston News.

AGRICULTURE SHORT
COURSE At A. AND NJ.
Has Been Changed from Winter tc
Summer and VIII Be Held Week
Before Farmers Congress.

An enrolment of 300 farmers is an.
ticipated for the annual farmers short
course which will be conducted at the
A. and M. College the week preceding
the Farmers Congress. The short
course, which heretofore has been held
during the Christmas holidays, will be
conducted each summer just prior to
the Farmers Congress.
This change was made in order that
the instructors would be able to de.
vote all Of their time to the short
course work, not being burdened with
regular class work. There will be
more room in the dormitories for the
visitors, weather conditions will be
more favorable, and farmers will be
able to leave home more conveniently.
The date of the short course will be
determined this week. Friday the ex-
ecutive committee of the Farmers
Congress will meet in San Antonio to
