What we had been calling a wood
proved to be a group of about a
dozen trees only, and, what was
strange, the roots sustained the
massive trunks exalted in the air,
forming strong arches, and props
and stays all around each individ-
ual stem, which was firmly root

scrambling up one of the curious
open-air roots, he succeeded in
measuring round the trunk itself,
and made it out to be about eigh-
teen yards. I saw no sort of fruit,
but the foliage is thick and abund-
ant, throwing delicious shade on
the ground beneath, which is car
peted with soft green heritage,
and entirely free from thorns, bri-
airs, or bushes Of any kind. 1t is

the wreck had been cast up by
the waves, which we could carry
away with US.
Before starting, Jack persuad-

and finish making his belt and
the spike-collars for the dogs, for
you must know that the child had
actually been carrying the board

some casks, however, beyond high

LOCAL SCHOOL
AT PAR With
West POINT
Junior College Is
Recognized BY
War Chiefs

Following an investigation by the
Wal Department at Washington, II
was revealed that the Brownsville
Junior College is on q par with all
other colleges in the United States
offering similar work, and that a
student graduating here with a
two-year standing, rates al high as
does one with two-year credits from
any university Of college in the
country.
This was revealed IN a letter re-
ceived by G.. w. Gotke, s~uperintend-
ent OF local schools, from Major
General G. U. Bridges.
Mr.. Gotke had written requesting
this information because several
local students planned to 60 from
here TO West Point, and wanted to
enter without having to take the
entrance examinations that are re-
uuired or prospective cadets who
enter the war academy from col
leges and schools not accepted by
the war department. According 10
the letter from Washington. this
will not be required Of Brownsville
Junior College students.
High Compliment
The letter reads as follows:
with reference to your letter Of
July 7, in which you seek ihforma-
ton relative to the standing of the
Brownsville Junior College. you are
advised that the matter was taken
I'D with the u. S. Bureau Of Edu-
cation. which advises as follows:
Brownsville Junior College. Browns
Vile. Texas. Is an institution OF
collegiate grade offering two years
Of work equivalent TO two years Of
a standard college. II may be pro-
visionally accredited by the United
States Military Academy under the
regulation requiring candidates 70
submit credits on certificate Form
/"
In referring 10 the letter. Super
intendent Cotke expressed his
qualification and stated that this
was a distinct honor.
This Is very complimentary in
deed, and means that w have at
tanned a ranking equal 10 any in the
nation. Our students have the same
privileges on entering the institution
as those from any other college in
the United States" he continued.
1T means that the United States
Government is willing to recognize
the Brownsville Junior CoAege.
