was championed by Governor Haines
under whose administration collection
upon the bonds only was placed in
the treasurer's Office. At the first of
the year the present land board voted
by vote of 3 to / to have the collec-
tons made in the treasurer's Office
upon state mortgages. In the mean
while this arrangement resulted in
general examination of the loans of
the land department which examina-
ton was made under the direction of
the state treasurer. The examination
showed that so far as the work of the
was concerned, there was
nothing to indicate any glazing fault
but it did show that there were loans
upon which interest had been running
for several years and that in some
cases the state had not seen to it
that lands upon which it had made
loans had paid their taxes. In one or
two cases tax title had passed to in
dividuals. The arrangement by which
the collection department was in a
large measure transferred to the
treasurer's Office never met with Mr..
Jenness' sanction. He opposed it
strenuously and instead of complying
with the spirit Of the order as made
by the state land board, in a meas
ure defied the land board in it's ord
ers in this respect.
Taking the ground that the divis-
ion of work between the registers
and treasurers Office could not result
otherwise than in additional help in
the land department, Secretary of
State Barker and Miss Mccoy, sup
erintendent of public instruction, have
been urging the land board to send
back to the registers Office the col
lection department They felt that
the work accomplished had resulted
in check-up of the land department
and that information of value had
been secured but that to continue the
collection department in the treasur-
er's Office could not be done with suf-
ficient economy to the state. About
two months ago Mr.. Barker made
motion in a land board meeting that
the collection department be returned
to the registers Office. Governor AL
exander spoke in opposition to the
motion and after the motion was put
a n carried, Governor Alexander
made such strenuous opposition to it
that the board decided to hold the
motion in allegiance for the time being
At the meeting of the land board at
which Mr.. Jenness was dismissed, Mr.
Barker renewed his motion and he
and Miss Mccoy voted for it. 1t
stood to 2 and in breaking the tie
Acting Governor Taylor said that in
.asmuch as the change might only re-
suit in temporary embarrassment and
that Governor Alexander might bring
up the proposition at a future meet
ing of the land board and have the
collections returned to the treasurer's
office he would vote against the mo-
ton at the time.
It is said to be the inclination of
the board to get along without a reg
lister for the land department if the
work of the department can be done
with saving to the state of the reg
ister's salary.

The dismissal this week of Ned
Jenness as register of the state land
department has created a great deal
of state interest. The exciting cause
which resulted in Mr.. Jenness' dis
missal grew from a situation which
resulted from the effort made to place
the collection department of the land
department in the state treasurer's
Office. This change in a modified form

HOW Will YOU
WEAR YOUR HAIR

Fashions in the Tonsorial Art change
the same as 10 any other art. This is
especially true with the styles 10 hair
cutting. The accepted styles in which
children should wear their hair, probab-
ly change oftener than with the grown
people, and to be up.to-date a barber
must keep pace with the style. Frank
Sherrod, proprietor of the Dyckman
House Barber, shop has just received.a
Tonsoris Fashion plate, showing the
very latest styles for wearing the hair,
both for adults and children. Take the
children in and ask to see the fashion
plate. You can then tell the barber just
how you want the hair cut. adv.

WILD AND WOOLLY" RIDE

Several Paw Paw people autoed to
Kalamazoo last Sunday afternoon and
remained for the performance Of The
Sinners" at the Fuller. The return
trip took them into the worst blizzard
OF the year. West Of Oshtemo the
heavy wind had blown down several tel
ephone poles, some of which reached
across the road, completely blocking it.
With the aid OF an ak from a nearby
farm house the road was fiually cleared
enough to permit the cars to pass. Those
who made the trip, however, say that it
was one "Wild and Woolly" ride.

der the direction OF LeComte &
Flesher.
Coming to the Garrick Theatre. Chi
cago, an importation from Berlin, a
stranger In a strange land, ii stirred
its first audience to mighty enthusi
asm, and from that night in early
April its success was assured. IL con
tinued on throughout the summer
months to absolute capacity houses
an unheard-of thing in summer in
door amusements in that city. For
twenty weeks it continued its record
run, and when it could no longer re-
main at this theatre owing to previous
house contracts, which had been SET
back many times, forced 1t to find an
other home. 1t was taken to the
Princess Theatre. Its success here
was as great as at the Garrick.
The Chicago press was a unit in
pronouncing "A Modern Eve" the best
musical comedy of this generation.

BRYAN AND Y. N. c. A.
STATE CONVENTION
cenvenes - College on February 10
and Men Ct National Reputation
Will Attend.

The State y. ". C. a. convention
is to be held az the A. & NJ. College
the latter half Of this week. It will
daubtless be a meeting Of great cor
sequence. Some two or three hundred
delegates are expected representing
the various colleges OF Texas and also
the city and railroad Y. N. C. AS Of
the State. The convention will bring
to the A. & ". College a great OPP
portunity. There will be a rich pro
gram: men OF National repute win
address the conference. and such a
body OF Christian workers could hard.
ly fail to impress itself for great good
upon any community. In another
way, too the convention should re-
suit benefcially. It will AFFORD occa.
sion for the A. & VI. College TO be-
come better known through these
hundreds OF visitors. Nearly every
important college in the State will
have a delegation Of its leading stu.
dents and teachers there. They will
have an opportunity to see and to
learn at first hand what the college
Is, TO mingle with the thousand cadets
and to enjoy the hospitality Of the
whole college community. That this
will result in a strengthening Of the
feeling OF good fellowship between
A. & NJ and the various schools rep
resented and in a better understand.
ing and consequently greater appre-
citation Of the work Of the school, will
not be questioned.
But what part will Bryan have In
this great convention? A year ago,
at Waxahachie, when College Station
was put in nomination as the next
meeting place Of the association,
Bryan was pledged to cooperate with
the college community to make the
meeting a great success. II was then
thought that II would be necessary
for Bryan to do something in a sub
stantial way toward entertaining the
visitors, But the college authorities
have signiHed their intention of enter
tanning every delegate right on the
campus. This is splendid for the col
lege. But there is still something for
Bryan to do. BY the attendance Of
Bryan people we can manifest at>once
our loyalty TO the college and our IN,
terest in the great Y. NJ. c. A. work
All Bryan should share with the col
lege the benedcent results flowing
from such a meeting as this. And It
IS Just this right to share in the re-
suits of the conference which Is OF.
'ered to BRYAN. State Secretary l.. A.
Coulter has outlined the following

the only condition being that local
committees make proper arrange.
ments for advertising the meetings
and carrying the program through
with success.
II is to be hoped that Bryan will do
handsomely in this matter. In the
interest Of the college as well as in
our own behalf Bryan should show at
her best. We have a rare opportunity
TO share in a great educational and
religious uplift; let us make the most
