had time to get off the train started
up. He thought the train was going
to switch so did not jump off until
the train was going nearly full speed.
He sustained several small cuts,
scratches and bruises and was un-

BRENNAN AND BRYAN
EVENED ON SCORE
Baptists Won Football Game, But the
Brennan Girls Took the Ionors
In Basketball.

The Brennan high school girls
basketball team outplayed and defeat.
ed the Bryan Baptist Academy girls
yesterday afternoon on the Bryan
Baptist Academy court by the score
Of 20 TO G. The team work OF the
Brennan girls was much better than
the academy's and the fast work OF
the entire team combined with the
goal throwing Of Miss Bradley was
the feature Of the game.
The football game between Bren.
ham high school and Bryan Baptist
Academy was played Immediately az.
ter the basketball game. the academy
evening up the score for the day by
easily outplaying and defeating the
Brennan boys by the crushing score
OF 26 TO 0.
The academy made a touchdown In
each quarter OF the game by fast work
and some Of the best interference ever
seen in Bryan. Only two goals were
kicked after the iouchdowns. The
Brennan boys were outweighed a
little in the line. but the backhelds
were about the same size. The team
work OF both was good, bu, the Bren.
ham boys we're stopped almost before
they could get started with the ball.
Only one or two forward passes we're
worked by each team during the
game, as both teams showed good
knowledge Of how TO break up the
play.
The entire academy team played
fine ball from start 10 finish. but the
work Of Knowles and Suber in the
line and Num- and Houston in the
backfeld contributed largely to the
victory Of the team. A brilliant run
by Houston from kickoff just at the
end Of the game almost netted an
other touchdown for the academy. but
the Brennan boys held and time was
called with the bali on Brenham's
2Oyard line.
The touchdowns for the academy
were made by Num-. A. Leverton.
Houston and Jackson.
The weather was fine for both foot
ball and basketball and the games
were attended by a good crowd.

been putting in hard practice to make
the team one of the best in this sec.

every possible Encouragement by the

Gov. Major has in mind the APP

mission to suggest amendatory or cor
receive legislation to the next general
assembly.
This commission will consist of law.
gers and it will be named with an
idea Of clearing the overburdened
statutes of dead" matter which has
been accommodating for years.
There are many statutes in the law
books of the state that have been null.
lifted wholly or in part by court de-
cisions, but which never were elimi-
mated by revision. Some of them date
back 20 years.
There is no use in carrying these
dead and obsolete laws and sections
of the statutes any longer" said Gov.
Major, "and the commission ] am
thinking of naming would do a great
work in simply indicating to the gen
eral assembly those which should be
taken out.
"There are innumerable instances in
the statutes where dead laws remain
for years after the supreme court has
declared them invalid"
The governor said the commission
will be named within the next two OF
three weeks.

President portirio Diaz, who ruled
over Mexico for more than a quarter
OF a century as an absolute dictator,
believed that only such iron rule could
bring peace and progress to the half
civilized millions of that country.
Several years ago, when his power
was still unbroken, an American, who
was on intimate terms with him, ven
tured to suggest that the Mexicans
were now prepared for a more liberal
form of government, and limited that
his rule was too severe.
The stern old man stiffened his
gaunt figure, and ran his fingers

to commercial clubs. road overseers
and good-roads organizations. a num-
Der of suggestions are made for the
eff ective observance of Good Roads"
days, Aug. Is and 10.
Good roads days last year proved
to be such a success that Gov. Major
hai again by proclamation designated
Al !. 10 and 10 as Good Roads" days

department to get as efficient work
as possible over the entire state on
these two days.
The commissioner lays down a few
rules, as follows:
First-Handbills should be prepared
and posted Immediately, showing calls
for the meetings at certain places
villages, schoolhouses, churches, coun-
try stores or different places in your
couaty-some afternoon or evening.
These meetings should be held before
Aug. 16.
Second-To have at every church in
the county on Sunday, Aug. Is, a SER
mon preached in whole or in part on
the subject Of good roads.
Third-That at the meetings that
are held that they specify the exact
points and sections that are selected
for the road work to be done.
F~curth-That ice water be supplied
the road workers by the townspeople,
Fifth-That it be understood exact
ly where MONDAY meals are to be
served.
Sixth-To have it understood thai
every owner of an automobile in each
county give a reasonable use of his
machine on these two days.
Sayenth-That where culverts are tt
be put in to have plenty of materia
for the construction of the same or
hand.
Eighth-Figure out the number o
teams that will be needed and have
them come all ready for service.

that can be done to advantage:
A-Widen roads to 40 feet.
B-Cutting all hedges to 5 feet o
less in height, and if possible pullini
hedges, especially at
Ground all road corners by hay
ing rebuilt the fence at a square col
ner by having new fence set back l
feet from squar corner and make
neatly round,
D-Put in ~culverts where needed.
E-Cut down the hills wherever pos
sible.
F-Have every road as far as po'
sible cleared of brush, ~undergrowt
and undesirable trees.
G-Have all bitches opened up S
that water will not u down the Gel
ter of the road.
H-fIave brush, trees or other o
: struction that prevent a full view
railroad crossings removed.
Newspaper publicity is especially r
quested in making these suggestion
: to the public.
Remember that every days wol

Marked improvement in the condi-
ton of the public schools Of Missouri
Is indicated by the fact that in the
year ended June 80 the total number
of days. attendance by all pupils in
creased from 79,066,564 to S3,811,S19.
The increase is 4,745,255 days, which
means not only longer school terms,
but a higher average of daily attend
ance.
The heavy increase became known
when William P. Evans, state super
lntendent, made the apportionment OF
