WORK OUT THE -
DETAILS FIRST"

Mr. T. A. Hensarling of the Steep
Hollow community was in the city to-
day and talked freely with the editor
of The Eagle on the question of good
roads," He is deeply interested and II
his health will permit will attend the
good roads meeting called by Judge
Maloney and the Commissioners
Court.
He opposed the bond issue last year
for the reason that he did not believe
suitable plans had been made, nor
sufficient method OF procedure studied
out, to begin the expenditure of sum
so large as that named in the bond
issue. Mr.. Hensarling believes that all
plans should be made in advance. the
kind of roads to be built thoroughly
understood, just where the roads are
to be built, how much will be devoted
to each precinct, and who will direct
the expenditures. etc. He thinks these
matters should all be worked out and
explained to the people before they
are asked to vote for bond issue.
Mr.. Hensarling favors good roads"
and believes II the preliminary meas
ures were worked out in advance. the
people would not mind being taxed to
build and maintain good roads. 81.

LOW TARIFF TO BE TESTED.

The Democratic dotcrine of low
tariff will be put to the test pretty
soon and the whole country will
watch the result with great interest.
The people have come to the place
where they want to see a test rather
than listen to the arguments of oppos-
ing politicians. Will low tariff re-
duce the price of necessities? And if
so, will It not correspondingly reduce
the price of the products of the farm,
and also reduce the price of labor?
In other words, is it possible to reduce
the price of manufactured articles by
opening our ports to the manufac-
turers of the world, and at the same
time maintain high prices for the raw
material and for labor? These are
some of the questions that a low tariff
will solve and the whole world is glad
of the opportunity to learn the truth.
If the last named proposition can be
done, Democracy will continue to be
the politics of the country, but il not,
there will be a speedy change. We
say this because there is no use to
deny the fact that large majority of
the people prefer to sell high and buy
high than sell low and buy low.

''ln the parcel post the live farmer
may see his opportunity. In the cities
thousands of people are wanting fresh
products OF the farm from first hands
Let the farmers get in touch with
these people and let them know that
they can be supplied through parcel
post direct from the farm. If they will
but take advantage of it, no class of
people of the country will be more
benefited than the farmers"
1t is gratifying to see such express
sions as the above appear in news
papers which are read largely by a
farming people. Farmers living on
rural routes are especially fortunate
as they can make deliveries of vari-
GUS products by parcel post and lose
no time from their work. 1t makes no
difference whether they live two miles
from town, or twelve. they can supply
their customers in town with fresh
vegetables, dressed poultry, butter,
eggs, ETC.. daily, every other day or
weekly, to suit the customers wishes
Most all the. Texas newspapers
reaching the News are urging the
home merchants to make use of the
parcel post in delivering various kinds
of merchandise to out-of.town Gus
toners. Many business men in these
towns are advertising to make deliv.
cries by parcel post, and are thereby
extending their trade territory.
The farmer should establish trade
of his own in neighboring towns, and
make deliveries by parcel post. If they
do not know personally enough people
to whom they can dispose Of what
they may have to sell, we can suggest
no, better way Of securing new GUS
toners than advertising In the news,
paper In the town in which you wish
To- SELL A few lines will be- sufficient
and the cost will be small The pub,
Usher Of your newspaper will be glad
10 help you In any. way he can.

Come out to the Bryan Baptist
Academy and be present at the prayer
meeting in the chapel Friday night.
These meetings are real revival meet
ings, the boys and girls confessing

! by Mrs. Mcdonald, gathered in the
dining room and the boys met in the
chapel We enjoyed the services very
much Sunday night Mr.. Bullock led
the prayer meeting, and II was one of
the best meetings we have ever had.
The Spirit was in the meeting, and a
number of boys who had never before
been moved made public confessions,
and in tears testified. The influence
of the prayer meetings that we boys
are holding in our own rooms at night
is having a wonderful effect on the
school, and these hours are most
precious to us.
believe the Holy Spirit is with us,
and that out of our school may go a
spirit OF revival which will move the
lentire city, and we want you to come
and be with us and pray for us.
We have not been sending out any
Invitations, but nevertheless the door
is always open, and IL you are inter
|ested in us and our school we want
you to come and be with us. The
school is not only ours, but yours. and
we want you to feel at home out here,
and come oftener. We appreciate
your talks and the good music, and
you help us to grow both spiritually
and intellectually.
