Withdraw His Proposition.

Commenting on the action of Mayor George A. Quigley, who last night at the common council meet. ing, refused to entertain a resolu> ton presented by Alderman J. Gus tave Johnson and others relative to alleged intoxication of board of pub> lie works foremen, Alderman Johns son said misconduct by employees rec fleets on the government in power and the common council of which he is a member.
 Alderman Johnson said the city is judged by the conduct of its em- ployes and the republican party which is now in power, suffers in the estimation of the voters if drunkenness is allowed among em- ployes. He believes it is the duty of the public works board to inves- tigate reports and if there is need of correction, take proper steps.
 The resolution which he presented to the council follows:
 That the board of public works are hereby requested to investigate the personnel which is on the city payroll. It has been heard around town that some people employed by the city, acting in the capacity of foremen, have been intoxicated dur ing working hours, and in order for some of the laborers to hold their jobs, they have been forced to bring liquor to their foremen.
 We the undersigned believe that the city should employ only those who will stay sober and need work for the support of their families as the tax paying public do not wish to support men who use their money to buy liquor."
 Council Action Without Effect <. Because Alderman Johnson dtd not Introduce a resolution to >tefee live petitions for changeA in 4Afess to the board of adjustment for hear- ings, at the common council meet ing last night, they will be acted on again at the special meeting next Monday night, Mayor Quigley said today.
 When the petitions were received they were referred to the board ot adjustment, but no mention was made of hearings. Later in the meet ing Alderman Johnson proposed that it be specified that hearings were to be given, and Mayor Quigley told him to prepare a resolution to that effect. Instead of preparing the res olution, Alderman Johnson conferred with Corporation Counsel J. H. Kirk ham and the latter made notation on each of the petitions that they were referred for hearings.
 Mayor Quigley said today that the procedure was not proper and in the call for the special meeting he in- cluded the petitions among the mat ters to be acted on. The zoning laws are complicated enough as they are, without adding this improper

THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS
COMES INTO THE LOWER VALLEY

The University of Texas has authorized the CIV
ing Of an entire unit of modern advanced courses in
Education, in Brownsville, during the second term Of
the summer session of the JUNIOR COLLEGE, July
z to August 8.
These courses are especially adapted to the needs
of teachers who still lack Senior college credit in Edu-
cation required for their degrees; to those who are
graduates of colleges in which insufficient profess
sional work was offered to entitle graduates to the
state permanent certificate; and to teachers who are
entering upon the work for the masters degree with
the University Of Texas. To the latter the work is
accredited as RESIDENCE. The credit earned in these
courses is transferable to all colleges and universities
i'm the class of University Of Texas.
Wherever given, the work of these courses is
deservedly peculiar. Teachers desiring to enroll should
notify Dean 5. A. Caldwell of the Brownsville Junior
College, or should write for more detailed information
to Dr.. Samuel QuigIey at the Edinburg Junior College.
