fore the meeting Of the Presbyterian
Synod on October 10th. Thursday

ENGAGED MEN FEAR THEY'VE

MONTHLY TRADES DAY AND THE
FUTURE.

The Eagle editor had several per-
sons to ask him yesterday, who had
come In for Trades Day. where to
take their stock they had brought in
to trade or sell. We could not tell
them. as no published announcement
Of the place had ever been made.
The Eagle would suggest that some
convenient lot be secured for selling
and trading purposes before the next
Trades Day and the fact thoroughly
advertised so the people will know
where to 60 when they get to town
and thereby avoid any confusion in
the future. fss9V
The Eagle made close observation
yesterday as to the number Of people
in town, the distances and localities
from which they came, and the result
was most encouraging indeed.
There was a good crowd In town.
not only Of Brazos county people, but
all adjoining counties were well rep
resented.
II was big Improvement over the
first Trades Day held In September
and furnished convincing proof that
the day can be made a success In
Bryan. That It can be made like 1t is
in Bolton. Waxahachie, Greenville and
other North Texas towns where
trades day has been regular monthly
feature for twenty-five years or
longer. -
At these places the first Monday
trades days have become so popular
they are almost equal 70 circus day
and bring to the towns great throngs
OF people from all the surrounding
country. We can make II so In Bryan

interested will give 1t the widest pub
lIcity possible.
The exhibits made Monday by the
boys corn clubs and the girls can
ming clubs were a success In the full
est sense. as they always are. and
brought great encouragement to all
thoughtful minds that are looking to
the future.
The specimens OF corn shown were
equal TO the corn OF the black belt OF
North Texas. Of Oklahoma and Kan.

The canned goods. preserves, jellies,

CONFESSIONS
. OF A WIFE
JIM EDIE TRIES TO PATCH 1T UP

Margie, that after all l think
woman is more materialistic than
man? She puts a greater price
on mans material caresses than
on the faithfulness of his soul.
"You will cling to man whose
soul is no longer yours, but who
remains conventionally faithful
and you will cast off a man whose
soul is utterly and Loyalty in your
Keeping, because he has erred
physically.
Don't you know, Margie, that
from years of tradition and privi-
lege we are weaker than you. We
fall easy victims to temptations
which centuries of traditions have
schooled you to resist. We have
learned one thing, which perahps
you will never know. We can
give our caresses without damn
ing our souls. We can sin so
lightly that 1t does not touch our
better selves. You must not Judge
us by your standard, Margie."
Gall very lovely, Jim, sounds
just wonderful, but let me tell
you that the theory is what has
made all the trouble between the
sexes since it was first worked out
by man. / am so tired of hearing
that l cannot sin without damning
my soul. simply because man has
decided some man wants me indi-
vidually to be his possession.
"Jim, there must be a single
standard IL women have the hap
piness that man insists shall be
his and that standard must be the
faithfulness and loyalty that man
expects from women, not the lax
ity and license that man takes to
himself"
"Then you cannot forgive, Mar
gie?"
Would he forgive me?"
Are you going to leave him?'
asked Jim, in an astonished voice
mo. Jim, I'm not going to leave
him, but neither am I going to
try to love him."
"You can't build your life uT
again on compromise.
you mean, Jim, that he can,
not build his life up again on
compromise. l can do it, for q
woman's life is all compromise. y
ITS all mixed up" said Jim
with sigh, "but / still think you
