FRANKNESS

Pres. Wilson, who has been be-
moaning his fate at being what he
called a national exhibit" is a very
frank, unconventional man. On one
occasion, in a burst of mOdesty, he
recited his limerick to a gathering:
"As a beauty am not star;
There are others more handsome by
far.
But my face-I don't mind it,
For l am behind it
The people in front get the jar"
To avoid danger in timed fruits,
after opening the tin, pour all the
liquid into a saucepan and add
tablespoon of castor sugar. Bring to
a boil; then put in. the fruit, and let
it get cold in the syrup. 1t is then
ready for use. By this process the
danger of any tin flavor, etc, is de-
stroyed, and it does not spoil the
taste of the fruit,

grinding toll OF these written exami.
nations, everyone was in the mood for
an evening of relaxation and social
pleasures.
The fellows were all willing to lend
a helping hand, and after days faith
full work the school rooms had been
converted into a fit and attractive
scene for social pastime. In the
chapel evergreens hung in festoons
along the wall. With the use of ferns,
Southern smilax and potted cedars,
the color motif of green was well car.
ried out. Punch was served through
out the evening from a table banked
in greenery. In the entrance hall
steamers of the blue and gold" the
schools colors, fell gracefully from
the four corners OF the room. Where
these met, pennants were dropped and
the effect was very pleasing
Tables for "forty-two," dominoes
and hearts were arranged in the
library. Here the college idea was
dominant. The walls were lined with
varicolored banners and pennants
mingled with blue and gold crepe pa.
per hangings.
Miss Sara Allen received the guests
in the chapel, assisted by Prof. and
Mrs. R. o. Allen, Mr.. Tanner and

Special mention should be made of
the work of our young artists, Messrs.
Hill, Morehead and Ines Gonzales, who
filled the blackboards in the school
room with well executed cartoons
which furnished no little amusement
and pleasure to the assembled guests.
Few schools can boast of such trio
of budding geniuses of the pencil as
the academy has in these three boys.
The younger society girls of Bryan
were the invited guests, and each
young lady voted the social a decided
success. We hope to give them the
pleasure OF attending other pleasant
social evenings before school is out.

STATEMENT FROM
JORDAN T. lAWLER
States His Position Relative to Fur.
nishing Current for the Bryan
College Interurban.


Bryan, Texas, Feb. 6, 1914.
To the Public:
On the 2Sth ult. there appeared in
the Eagle as news item a report pur-
porting to be the transactions o. a
meeting of the Commercial Club on
the night proceeding. This report
stated that the meeting had been
largely attended CD and by innuendo
charged the Bryan Power Company
with being unwilling to assist in the
electrification of the College Interur-
ban. The claim apparently being put
forth that the Power Company refuseu
to agree to furnish power for the pro
posed identification.
In direct refutation therto herew:,ll
follows a copy of contract for power
offered the Interurban by the city OF
Bryan and the power company, and
refused by former. This refusai was
based on the claim advanced by Mr..
o. Z. Gammill vice president and gen,
eral manager of the Interurban, that
it would be necessary that he be fur.

The terms of this contract were
drawn up in conformity with the adj
vice of electrical engineers of un'
questionable competency, and were
liberal to the lnterurban. giving them
sufficient power for all practical pur
poses, and at the same time protect
ing the light and power consumers on
the city's circuit.
The council under which this con
tract was rendered the Interurban
were of the opinion, and were joined
in this by the power company, tina;
the citizens and tax payers having
burdened themselves with thirty
year tax, that they might be given
municipal electric light service, were
first to be considered. Good service
to the public must not be jeopardizeG
in any contract entered into with the
Interurban.
Since its refusal of the contract n
question the lnterurban management
has never substituted or proposed any
contract wherein the interest of the
public was to be protected.
AS to what the Interurban has pro
posed the writer will take this phase
OF the matter up at a later date. In
the meantime he suggests that Mr.
Gammill inform the public as to Low
he would finance the purchase (Dy
