HIS MOTHER CAME FIRST.

While the mobilization OF a certain
Illinois regiment was under way wo-
men in the persons OF relatives and
friends Of the guardsmen flocked to
the camp in such numbers that neces-
sary work was hampered. Thereupon,
Il is reported, the colonel issued or
rders that only one woman should be
allowed to visit each member Of the
regiment.
One of the guardsmen, not yet
knowing of the order, approached the
camp in company with his mother
a sister and his fiancee. The guard
stopped the party and sternly asked
who the women were. When told he
answered..
"You can take in only one. It's up
to you to choose"
The young man looked for a mo.
ment at the three, and then said,
Mother"
When war is in the air humanity
gets down to fundamentals and when
this is done mother will never get
the worst OF It. We do not believe
that the young guardsman will make
a worse husband than n he had chos-
en- his sweetheart. A man who can
appreciate his mother may be expect
ed to take good care OF his wife,

RAISED THE PRICE.

The Texarkana Four States Press
announces that henceforth, because
OF the increased price Of paper. the
subscription price would be 65 cents
a month. instead Of 80 cents. They
find that they cannot print and de.
liver paper at 80 cents and make n
profit on II, because the cost OF paper
and the delivery service costs them
more than the substitution price.
The Herald's subscription price has
been 60 cents month the past sew.
eral years. and even at that price. In
the face OF increased cost OF produc.
tion. there is no profit in the sub.
scription end Of the proposition. II
costs all OF GO cents n month TO buy
the blank paper and serve the sub.
scriber with carrier service. etc.
The average newspaper is not SEQ.

and especially Is II true OF those pa.

Notwithstanding the more thar
doubling OF the price Of print paper
The Eagle has not increased It's sub
scription price. either daily or week
ly. which fact has been greatly ap
preciated by our subscribers. Print
paper is becoming scarcer every da,
and the worst may come TO the worst
but every possible effort is beinl
made TO secure supply sufficient tC

stored. In the meantime all subscrib

10 settle their accounts at once. Pre-
vailing oonditions-scarcity OF papei

York, in the city before the strike is
effective. Our merchants are looking
after the interests Of their customers
and are determined to not let them
suffer.
In keeping up with the progressive
pace that has been set In the city Of
Bryan, johnson & Rohde have just In
stalled a new gasoline pump that is a
dandy. The name Of the new machine
is the "Chief Entry" and is the very
finest that is put out by the s. F.
Bowser people at Fort Wayne. Ind.
The pump is the only one OF Its kind
IN this part Of the state. The mech
anism OF the machine is arranged so
|as to be closed by steel jacket which
raises directly over the pump. An
electric light equipment is just under
the hood that covers the pump proper
and large electric sign is attached
to the top of same. The machine
pumps five gallons of gasoline at one
stroke and a register is kept OF the
business done during the day and also
during the life OF the machine. II re
iquired an outlay Of $3.50 to get the
machine installed, but II is regular
city style machine.

Subscribers will confer a favor on
the management by telephoning the
office promptly when carriers fail to
deliver the paper, or when change Of
residence occurs.
MAKING GOOD ROADS PAY.

II is no longer question as to
whether or not good roads will pay.
It is an established fact that they pay
and pay big, too. They pay In a
thousand ways, but the following from
the Palestine Herald shows one par
ticular way in which they pay and is
applicable to every person who lives
adjacent to an improved highway:
THE good roads question has real
and tangible business side as well as
affording q means Of comfort and
pleasure. We have just recently read
. statement from section that Is
now enjoying real highways. One Of
the men in the county under discus.
sion was relating the value that the
roads had been to him. He said that
before the roads were improved he
paid little attention to anything ex.
cept staple crops and marketed them
when the roads were favorable, and
when they were bad he stayed at
home. But, he said. after the roads
were improved he noticed buyers got
to coming through the country offer
ing to buy all kinds Of produce, deliv.
cred at his door and for cash. He de-
cided that looked like business, and
he got in the game. And now he says
buyers call regularly at his home for
all Of his eggs, chickens. for his
cream and produce. and he has no
trouble In selling all he can grow, de.
spite the fact that he is a good dis.
lance from a big town.
This same man also relates that
since the roads are good and riding a
pleasure. the town people drive many
miles into the country TO buy their
produce. chickens and eggs. and that
any farmer only has to hang out q
sign saying what he has to sell Ia
find quick buyer.
THE natural conclusion OF this man
is that good roads have paid him O
big profit. And II Is just as reason
able to believe that the same thinl
will result in any section that has
really good roads.
There are any number OF farmer,
in Anderson county who can dupli
cate the above mans success II the,
can induce the building of good road,
their way"

AS a forerunner Of the impending

ing all passengers to /be at home by
Monday, the 4th. sHippehts Of per-

It will be gratifying news to the
citizenship of Bryan to know that the
sidewalk in front OF the new Federal
building is now being built and will
be rushed to completion. After hav.
ing the first curb removed Mr.. J. r.
Sanford was employed to supervise
the work. This gentleman has re-
placed the curb that was taken out. It
has been accepted by the government
inspector and work on the walk was
started this morning In real earnest.
The base for the pavement, which con.
sists OF eight inches Of gravel. has
been put In place and Mr.. Sanford
announced this morning that by or be-
fore Sunday the walk would be com.
pleted and be In use. That sounds
good to everybody.

School AffiIiates With cornelI-New
Uniforms Ordered.
When II became known that j. Al !
len Myers, Jr., one Of the members OF
the recent graduating class at Allen
Academy. was contemplating entering
Cornell University, the principals OF
the academy took up with that institu-
ton the matter OF his entrance on
credits, and upon the data submitted
not only was full entrance accorded
the applicant. but the school was
granted the privilege OF entering stu
dents without examination, upon the
certificate Of the principals. Allen
was one OF the strong members OF the
1916 graduating class; he was able to
show more than the required number
OF units for full admission to Cornell.
and we feel sure he will make good
there or anywhere he may 30, and
that he will reflect credit upon his
prep school and his class.
Among those who successfully COM
plted their courses and were honored
with diplomas by the University OF
the State Of Ohio at the recent com
mencement In June. were two old
academy boys. l.. l.. Menke and q. u.

meant good deal of sacrifice on their
part to do the work which has been
done. The dentists are planning
to examine the teeth of the children
this week or next.
The defamation contest to select
reprsenttive for the state contest
seems to be rousing considerable in
terest. The English teachers report
that already II pupils have made
their selections and are working on
them. Others who have signified
their intentions Of entering the con-
test may bring the number up to Is.
AS in the case Of the debates
the English teachers are assured
that all who take part in these con-
tests will receive material benefit
from this work.
In most Of the grade rooms on Fri
day OF last week essays were read or
stories told on the life of Lincoln.
No formal programs were prepared
but the teachers in the opening ex-

when we have especially before us
the names of Lincoln and Washing
ton. On account of the high wind
the flag was not run up on the build
ing on February 18th but it is hop
ed that it may be used on the twen-
ty-second.
