Neva Berner. Age 10.
This day 1 am telling about just
does come in summer for it was
the first day of June.
June, along the banks of the Mis-
souri, River, is a lovely time, for the
ravines, as we called them there, are
such dear places then. The sides of
the ravines are covered with trees,
mostly oaks, the grass is green and
so thick and soft, and best of all are
the wild flowers hiding all about in
all sorts of hooks.
So, one evening, about five o'clock,
friend of mine-a girl my own age =
and 1, started for a walk to gather
some wild flowers. Never did enjoy
a walk more! Never did nature seem
so beautiful! and never did two girls
say less to each other than we did.
1t seems that my friend, Lura by
name, had an elder sister who was a
school teacher. This sister had re-

as Lura walked along and saw a

or course you are all waiting to
know who won the prize for Zone
Day This Summer. The lucky one
was Neva Berner, age Is, OF Tacoma.
Perhaps [ should not have said
lucky for 1t is in no sense "luck"
which wins these prizes, it is merit.
1t means that you must think what
you have to write, think it out clear
ly, then write it. After that read
what you have written to see il you
have said what you had in your mind.
1t not, make your changes and re-
write it, making it your very neatest,
best work. Sometimes compositions
come to me, showing haste and ex-
treme carelessness. These are few
though, for the most part the writing
and spelling show extreme care.
Our October composition should be
very interesting and easy to write
upon, for l dare say, nearly every one
of you went to fair somewhere, this
fall. l think the children's exhibit
was grand. To think of girls taking
first or second premium for canning
fruit making bread, cake, jelly, for
different kinds Of Sc wing 1t is not
so much the premium as it is the fact
that so many of our girls throughout
the country can do these things and
to do them so we'll. That is one bene-
fit to be had from domestic science.
Even though many of you attend dis
trict schools, you may have some
domestic science topics taught you.
Watch for the November 1st issue
of The Ranch, there are to be two
prizes offered. one for the boys and
one for the girls. Both prizes are
just fine.
Remember you have till November
1st to send in your composition on
'The Fair to tell all of us what you
saw and enjoyed there. The prize for
the best one is dainty book.

- 49,
The lungs are likened to red granite.
n The third stage is the last. The
lung is still hard, but it's color is like
gray granite. This is due to change
which results in the organ getting rid
of the packing or pus-like substance.
One can easily see why there should
be fresh air in the room. Just lmag-
inc one trying to get air enough into
those solid lungs to sustain life in a
room where fire has burned out the
oxygen or been breathed over and
over again by other people. Just re-
member the closed window and hot
room may as surely kill as dose of
slow poison.
A cough medicine should be given.
If no doctor is near to prescribe be
very careful what you give. Any old
cough syrup will not do. 1t must be
the kind that will loosen so the pa
tient can raise the substance, and
not kind that will dry up the cough.
When the lungs begin to get rid OF
this foreign matter, box should be
prepared-a small pasteboard one with
the end cut out. There should be
plenty of small rags, squares OF pa
per- or still better, roll of toilet
paper. What is raised, and there will
be pints, can be disposed Of by using
a piece and Immediately stutfing it
into the box. When filed it should
be burned. Never make the mistake
of washing rag or letting one stay
in the room very long.
At the end of six or eight days the
crisis comes. In favorable results
breathing is easier and sleep returns.
II all is not we'll, death may result
from inflammation if both lungs are
affected; from fever; from weak
heart, or, there may be too little
strength. In persons worn out in
strength, the aged, or incorporate,
there may be delirlum, or scanty
expectoration of greenish appearance.
Death may also take place later from
an abscess or gangrene in the lung.
tits now generally conceded that in
ordinary cases very little active inter
ference is called for, letting the dis
ease run it's course with the simple
treatment which is here described.
The food should be light; milk,
soups, raw eggs fixed like custard.
Later. as the patient improves,
stronger food may be given.
During the progress OF the disease
the patient should be sponged off
every day with clear water, followed
by an alcohol rub. just pour the lia-
uid into the palm of the hand and rub
directly into the flesh. Do the spong-
ing under the bed clothes With
care. there can be no danger.
This treatment can be given by any
one who uses little common sense.
What is required to reduce fever or
promote sleep should be prescribed
by some one in the profession.
Tt should be borne in mind that the
heart is very weak in the convalescent
period. A patient should not over
tax himself, by so doing he may do
"A great injury. Complications may
set in which may cause death or later

Statement from Hon. |. 3. Reeves.
Hon. I. B. Reeves, a member of the
House from Sherman, Grayson County,
stated that he had never before visited
the college, and that he came here in
favor of changing the location of the
school.
He said that facts, as they had been
presented to him in Austin, were mis-
leading and had been misrepresented,
and that since investigating personally
he considered the present location an
ideal one, and that his view OF chang
ing the location of the school was most
wonderfully changed.
He stated that he wished to express
Il as strong as he could that he will
give the college all the support in his
power. Providing for the college was
now the most important piece of legis-
lation before that body.
At the present site the school has
sufficient land, of the necessary fertil-
ity. With the present buildings, and
those in process of construction COM
pleted, the Agricultural and Mechan.
ical College of Texas will be equal to
that of any State in the Union.
Mr.. Reeves stated that he wished
to express his heartfelt thanks to the
faculty for the education they had
given him in bringing him over to see
the school, for the courtesies that he
had been shown, and the hospitality
that he and his colleagues had re-
ceived.
