Cold weather has retarded progress on
the work OF repairing the break at the
Bolster reservoir, although operations at
the spillway, where the trouble began,
have not been suspended, even under the
most adverse conditions. A gang OF 10
laborers is at work unearthing the re-
mains of the old dam and the more they
dig the more evidence of unskilled build
ing is uncovered Supt. Lee of the wa
ter department has prepared set OF
plans in detail for the restoration of the
spillway and dam along approved lines
and while some time must elapse before
the work is completed, the masonry at
the finish will be of a character much
more permanent. A night Waterman is
employed at the reservoir.

the roads will complete the entrain- ment of 100000 men, or about thirty percent of the total to be moved to the camps.
 Tt is expected that a second move ment of another 100000 will begin on September 18th. continuing for four days thereafter; and a third move ment of the same size will start on October 2nd.
 An idea of the task in making out schedules that will guarantee the safe and prompt transportation of these armies may be gleaned from the fact that, to move merely one l field army of S0,000 takes 6,299 cars, made up into 3666 trains, with as
 many locomotives and crews And there are over twelve times as many men concerned in the plans we are now working out:
 We have also been asked for trans portation to carry the 350,000 mem bers of the national guard to their
 training camps. The national guard
 movement has already started and
 will continue in increasing volume uEtil all have been moved. Shippers and receivers of freight have been appealed to by the car ser. vice commission, and can greatly help if they will cooperate with re. : srect to commercial freight, keeping
 in mind the herculean task the roads
 are performing in handling it.

Teachers College in the southwest authorized to give collegiate de- gree of l.. 1.
 Graduates from high schools enter the Teachers College in the junior year and by making some work up in pedagogy, graduate from the Teach CTS College with the degree of l.. l. in two years. Those holding teachers certificates receive special advanced standing in the school. Arrange ments have been made to allow those who have finished the 10th grade in high school to enter the Teachers College in it's beginning classes.
 The College of the City of Fl Paso has been standardized and is co-or- dipated with the State University of Texas and it's work is the same. One may take their grades from the Col to the State University or any other standard college and continue their work without break The 1nStruc ton is given by professors of the State University in State University buildings and under State University regulations with the State University courses of study. So a student is really attending the State University except he is doing it at Fl Paso i'll stead of at Austin. Military tram ing is given young men ant Red Cross training given young wo men.

 CTS College.
 i The College offers junior college
 VI ork in the College of Arts and Scien-

 or scientific career. The work is the same as that given at the State Uni jversity of Austin and is CO., ordinate
 with it.
 The College offers junior college work in the School of Commerce pre-

Red Cross Meeting

There was a meeting of the Red
Cross at the Elks club room on Tues
day evening. The attendance was very
small. Several of the young business
men of the town have entered very
enthusiastically into this great work
and large number of the ladies are
equally as enthusiastic in the Red
Cross work, but the mass of the peo-
pie seem perfectly willing to let these
few do it while they go about their
usual amusements. There will be a
large amount of money to raise and
much work to be done if Lamar and
Prowers county does its share of this
noble work, and every citizen should
get in the harness and help. The
committee had prepared a set of by
laws for the government Of the Chap
ter and these were passed Secretary
r. l.. Christy read a report showing
how the work was progressing, and
Chairman Ray Strain announced that
4 second shipment consisting of near
ly 2500 pieces of work had been ship
ped to the national headquarters. A
soliciting committee to call on the
business men and secure funds to
carry on the work was appointed and
every business man will be asked to
donate regular monthly sum.
