 This is a serious charge to bring against a bottling company for if it is possible to bottle mice in a beverage offered for public sale the chances for the intro- duction of cockroaches. flies and other filth is assured.
 This is a case at point which would suggest to the board of health and the Little Rock Coca Cola Company that a thorough inspection of it's sanitary condi- tion be made. If it's methods are bad it should get in line with cleanliness or quit business. = The State.

FREE SCHOLARSHIP IN THE
 SCHOOL OF YOUR CHOICE.

The Tyler Commercial College of Tyler. Texas. is positively the only business college in the state which teaches a thorough course of practical. modern bookkeep- ing and business training. Other schools teach theoretical book keeping; some of them call 1t actual business. but It Is not.
 The commercial room of the Ty- Ter Commercial College is com munity of business houses of va rlous kinds, Banks, Wholesale, Commission, Real Estate, Retail,
 Insurance. etc. Each student is engaged in real, active business,
 learning to do by doing. Every entry made by the student dur ing his entire course is originated by an actual sale or purchase; it may be grain. it may be grocer. les, dry goods. real estate or stock in \ corporation, but the transaction is really performed

In a former issue attention was called to an effort being put forth to compel the vaccination of dairymen in preventing ty. phoid fever and it was suggested that it was an imposition to de- 'mand this in the face of the many other insanitary conditions existing in other food and drink establishments and centers.
 The press chronicles the filing of a suit against the Little Rock coco-cola company for several thousand dollars on the ground that the plaintiff was poisoned

and every paper required in the transaction, whether check. note,
 draft, receipt, mortgage. deed or what not. is filled out by the stu.
 dent. Partnership contracts are drawn up and agreed upon be- tween the parties forming the company. Articles of incorpora- tioE are drawn up. Through these practical methods the stu. dent learns business as well as bookkeeping; they learn how to meet one another face to face and transact business in a busi. ness way, instead of copying the oretical transactions from text book as IS done in every other commercial school in the state.
 It takes more teaching force and better teachers to teach our sys- tems and they must be we'll in- formed on business customs.
 When a student learns to do . thing by actually doing it. he learns it thoroughly, and with our practical, face to face busi- ness methods we are able to give

BoNEneAD BUSINESS METHODS.

Hundreds of dollars are being sent out of Abilene every week for printing that could be done 1t home. Those people who send their printing away should not complain at others for patron izing the mail order houses. = Taylor County Texas Times.
 And Abilene is not the only city and Taylor is not the only county where this practice is carried on to an extent that is a gross injustice to the county pa- pers which yearly donate free of charge and in gIadsome spirit many dollars worth of space and many hours of time that is taken from their own business to boost and build the section of country which they represent. It looks as if the business men and the county officers would recognize a community interest that would prompt them to throw every pos sible bit of patronage that lay in their power to the home paper.
