Observations


We are indeed glad to note the
fact that after the Improvement was
started on North Main street be-
tween 23rd and Gath streets by our
most estimable postmaster, Mr., John
e. Astin, other property owners right
In this immediate section caught the
fever and started right in after him.
The C. G. Parsons building on the cor
ner of Main and 23rd streets Is now
undergoing some changes. The old
dilapidated board and dirt walk which
has been in front OF this structure
since Columbus discovered America,
ia being torn up to give way to a
brand new concrete walk, and while
II is a regTettable fact that same Is
not being built on a sidewalk grade,
still 1t is a much needed improve
ment. There will now be left two old
structures in this block which de-
tract much from the appearance OF
same, but inasmuch as the owners are
wide.a wake, progressive Bryan citi
zens, we venture to say that but a
few days will elapse before some i'm
provement, at least on the walks, Is
started.
The big asphalt paving plant was
started again this morning by the
Kaw Paving Company and, accordinf
to Mr.. Vance, the superintendent, i

ly. Cheers and deafening applause
rent the air as the various officers
and their battalions came into view,
and when Company A appeared on
the screen pandemonium broke loose.
Every officer and man ancamped at
Ft. Lincoln, with the exception OF
those kept on guard to maintain reg

town for the purpose of seeing this
feature film and everyone present as
a unit, proclaimed it huge success.

Scenes of the troops on dress pa
rade and being reviewed by Gov. Han

wildly portrayed. AS the Stars and
Stripes came into view the theatre
resounded with applause and feel
ing of true American patriotism was
in the air. Views Of the boys going
through their daily maneuvers and
tossing raw recruits in blanket were
also, enjoyed. The smiling counter
ance Of Capt. McLachlan, perform

The Cole Eight lowered the pas
