DEMONSTRATION AGENTS
MEET At A. AND NJ.

That fruit in East Texas was no
hurt bit by the recent cold spells
while in West Texas the fruit croI
was practically ruined, seems to be
the consensus of opinion Of the dis
trict agents engaged in demonstration
work in Texas who gathered at A. and
NJ College last week for their monthly
conference. NJ. T. Payne of Temple
whose district includes the whole OF
West Texas, says that the cold
weather has practically killed all fruit
in that section. "Of course, some OF
the later. fruit may survive. Practic-
ally all of the early crop persisted,
however" said Mr.. Paynes report.
Good rains and excellent cop pros.
poets were reported from all sections
of the State.
The demonstration agents are work
ing Jointly for the Federal Department
OF Agriculture, under the direction o.
w. F. Proctor, in charge of the work
in Texas, and for the A, and VI. Col
lege under the direction of the extern
sion department, which has for its
superintendent c. NJ. Evans, an A. and
NJ. graduate. The district agents will
meet at the college monthly to discuss
the work and plan new features.
Those who were here last week;
]. L. Quicksall, Waco; 7. o. Walton,
Livingston; NJ 7. Payne, Temple;
William Gamer Denton; and c. W.
Orms, Mineola. These agents are in
charge of the county agents, who are
also in the employ of the A. and NJ.
College.
The agents reported that the farm
ers of the State are taking great in
terest in demonstration work and are
cooperating thoroughly with the
agents.

THE CITY SCHOOLS

To the Public:
A short time ago we had a debt of
more than one hundred dollars hang
ing over us on pictures bought to
beautify the rooms in the public
schools. The Princess Theatre very
kindly proposed to us to give few
benefit openings in order to help us
pay it off The children sold the tick.
cts and in the two times we resorted
to this course we only lacked a little
more than one dollar of paying out in
full. The little lacking was promptly
donated by friend of the children
and now the entire amount is paid
To the friends who contributed by
purchasing tickets from the children,
and to children and teachers who
worked so faithfully to bring the cause
out of debt, we are very thankful, and
desire to give to them this public
recognition.
To the Princess Theatre, Manager
Walker and his excellent wife, who, as
Miss Ruby Davis, was graduated from
the Bryan High School not long ago,
we desire to give public recognition
for the generous course pursued, and
for the public spirit displayed in pay
ing off this debt for the sake of the
public schools and the children Of
Bryan.

Superintendent.

TWILIGHT GAMES ARE
NEARING THE FINISH

The victory Of the Methodists over
the Baptists, by a score Of to l, on
high school field last Friday evening,
brought the Wesleyans mp to tie
with their bitter baseball enemies,
the Presbyterians, for second place.
In Fridays game after the first
inning Cornell pitched wonderful
ball, and received faultless support
when he needed it, which was not
often, as he struck out 10 and was
finely handled by the grizzled yeter-
an, Creager.
Warren, in deep right, made a
sensational left-handed catch of a
line drive, robbing Blanchard of a
hit. Both the Douglas boys, Shad-
burne, McCracken and Hackett field
ed excellently.
The first and last Baptist run came
in the initial inning, on McCracken's
resounding whack for three bases
and Honey's single. In the third

tist 20 reach second after the first
inning. In the fourth the crafty
Webb, (may the Lord forgive him ,
worked the ancient hidden ball trick
on H. Douglas of first.
The Methodists secured only two
scattered hits and base on balls,
but three dropped flies by Summers,
Drake and Warren looked as good to
the Shadburne cohorts as homers.
The Methodists scored four in the
third on a single by Creager, walk
to Hansen, Bixby's sacrifice, Sum
mer's nun ol Webbs skyscraper,
Coburn's sacrifice, brakes muff of
Blanchard's fly, Cornell's walk, and
a wild pitch; another in the fourth
on Martins single and steal, and

Fred Honey, the capable and pop

olouted second to Hamilton, this
morning leads the Twilight league in
batting, with an average of 400;
