was only two weeks. Now, however,
the sessions are held for two months
of each year-July and August. The

blossomed out into a fiourishing town,
with many handsome public buildings,

charge of four teachers at the Indus
trial Institute and College.
San Antonio, Tex, July 9, 1914.
His Excellency,
Gov. Earl Brewer,
Jackson, Miss.
Honored Sir:
| deeply appreciate the courtesy of
your prompt reply to my letter. The
entire matter is now before the bar
of public which is generally
just in its decision. There is one
point in your letter to which l should
like to call your attention. You say:
ITO say that charges should be pre-
ferred before one can be dropped
from the faculty would be tantamoLnt
to saying that unless there are some
charges brought one could remain on
the faculty for life;" and l would re
spectfully ask WHY NOT? If any col
lege is so fortunate as to have pro-
! fessors of whom 70 just complaint
can be made-who are by nature and
| education fitted for their important
positions, why not keep them in such
positions as long as they are able and
willing to fill them satisfactorily?
You also say: There are no in
vestigations to be made" l believe
that few probes skillfully used
would disclose an astonishing amount
of corruption which must be gotter
rid of before there can be firm, sount
health. The course now being pursued
at the l. l. & c., is calculated to pre-
vent any elf-respecting, well-quaI
fed woman from accepting the position
as teacher, from which she may b

April tooi Day.

There are all sorts of theories as
to the origin Of the merry anniversary,
but the most plausible is the one
which gives the custom its use in
France, about 1864. France was the
first European country to adopt the
reformed calendar, and as a result the
New Year day was carried back to
January 1, and mock calls were made
on April 1, as a joke on such as had
foggotten the change in the calendar.
