To Those Interested in a Busines.?
Education:
I deem It a pleasure to be able to

College.

lego and at once took charge of the
books of ono of the leading houses in
its line in Bryan.
Prof. Perry is a recognized expert
In every line of Lusiness training and
there Is no reason why we should not
have one of the very
business
colleges in Texas if the people of
Bryan want it.
From personal experience I can en-
dorse the school and the courses of
study in the highest possible terms.
The course in bookkepin? is certainly
one of the most practical fascinating
and easiest to learn because it is prac-
tical that can possibly be put Into the
lianas of a student. If you expect to
engage in business of any kind you
will need just such a course of the
Bryan Business College now offers
you and it senms to me that no young
person can afford to pass it up.

I'M SORRY FOR THE FELLOW
THAT HASN'T GOT A MOTHER.
(To Our Little Boy at Home.)
A fellow lives just 'cross the street
His mother died today
And when I saw him crying so
I had to run away;
And there were folks and carriages
And loads of flowers too
But he cried and called his mother so
It made me awful blue.
A great big lump rose In my throat.
Which turned into a tear
When I thought how I would feel
If 'twas "little mother" dear
That laid there awful white and still
And could not smile or see
The loveligbt gone from her sweet
eyes -
That just look love at me.
(Oil gee! I felt so sorry for
That boy whose mother died
I don't care what you think of me
I just sat down and cried.)
'For when night come.3 and you get
scared
At things all in the air
A creepin' at your back and heels
And straight up goes your hair;
You sneak as fast as you can sneak
And crawl in mother's bed
And when you nestle close to her
Yr.u find the spooks have fled.
And when her warm lips touch your
face
And 'round you's her soft arm
Why then you fall so sound asleep
For of course you're safe from
harm.
There never was a spook would dare
To hurt my mother sure
For she's all right I'll tell you that.
So good so sweet-and pure.
(Oh gee! But I am so sorry
For the boy across the way
Who ain't got any mother dear
For they buried her today.)
My mother is a jolly chum
And when I'm lonesome plays
Just any kind of boys' game
For she's used to boys' ways;
She don't scold much when I come in
With clothes not very neat
But says boys will get rips and snags
And forget to clean their feet.
Then she keeps all the stuff you
need '
Corks hooks and bags of string;
And when you go a fishing
Why she's got just everything.
Sometimes you get an itching back.
Way up where you can't reach
Then mother's soft hand finds the
mother she's a peach!
(Oh gee! I feel so sorry
For that boy just 'cross the way
Who hasn't any mother
For they buried her today.)

Chickens and Flowers. y
Quoting an editorial on the proposed
Chicken ordinance the San Antonio
Express says:
"Beaumont has an ordinance pre
venting the running at large of hogs
cattle and horses and Is considering
the propriety of adopting an ordinance
to require owners of chickens t3 keep
them penned up or at least to restrain
them from' destroying their neighbors'
gardens. Flowers add to the beauty
of the home and a pretty garden en-
hances the value of a lot which would
otherwise be unsightly. The raising
ofchickens should be encouraged and
so should the cultivation of attractive
yards and gardens."
That is the proper vitw. There is
no reason why we may not have both
chickens and flowers. A proper re-
gard by each for the rights and pleas-
ures of others will make drastic laws
unnecessary. Beaumont Enterprise.

Railroad Traffic Blocked and Houses

f By Associated Press.

Life as We Live It.
It's waking and sleeping and heav-
ing a sigh and watching and weeping
and saying good-bye. It's long hours
of labor and short hours of rest it's
helping our neighbor and doing our
best; it's fasting and dining and
striving in vain and joy and repining
and sunshine and rain. It's laughing
snd crying it's darkness and light
and wishing the dying a loving good-
night. It's dancing and wailing and
battling with men succeeding and
failing and trying again. It's wooing
and mating It's foolish and wise It's
loving and hating and dealing In lies.
Man says it la dreary as graveyard
he goes; he says he is weary and
longs for repose; he says It Is hollow
deluding and vain; and others who
fpllow repeat the refrain. But I shall
not hurry thU old world to leave;
what though It may worry and gall us
to grieve? It gives us good measure
of joy s we go there's always a
pleasure to pay for a woe. I'm fond of
the mixture of laughter and tears; I'd
fain be a fixture ' for ten thousand
years. Walt Mason.
The Japanese War Scare.
The bacillus Martis seems to be in
the air causing Nipponphobia with
paroxysms of terror. The secretaries
of war and of the navy unite in show-
ing how helpless is the Pacific coast
to an invasion by the Japanese; so
that it s.eems to me the Nipponese
will be the stupidiest little gentlemen
in the -world If they do not hurry over
here and take us while we are squalling
for mercy. One warrior who I under-
stand has seen service as a newspaper
correspondent and gives his martial
Comp
picture with all his decorations as a
frontispiece ha 3 written a book called
"The Valor of Ignorance at the con-
clusion of which I concluded it should
be re-entltled "The Ignorance of
Valor." He kindly points out not only
the general strategy but the landing
points and bases of supplies; not only
these but the particular camps and
routes of assault and positions of de-
fense. The supine American is aided
to grasp his fate by maps accurate In
every detail. If I remember correctly
Pullman Wash. Is the Japanese cen-
ter of operations. God help them. (The
Japanese.) Not that I have anything
against Pullman but I am quite sure
the Japanese general staff would seek
to retreat after three days at Ah
Fong's restaurant. Then would be our
opportunity. If the Invading Japanese
army could be lured to Pullman and
then "all railroad fares suddenly raised
we would have them at our mercy
and my Idea would be that airships
could swoop down from Mt. Adams nnd
drop plum puddings and other Christ-
mas deadly weapons upon them. I
don't offer this as the only possible
plan. If once we got the hostile army
at Pullman the American genius would
rise to the occasion and devise In-
genious means to keep them there.
This whole coast Is filled with Jap-
anese spies. Some are making ob-
servations others pies. Some with in-
finite pains and stupidity are drawing
headlands which they might buy on
postal cards at two for live cents but
lerhaps they are grafters and want to
get a heavy expense allowance.
But I forget; meanwhile we are leav-
ing Pullman Wash. the easy prey to
the invading horde of barbarians. But
will Pullman let them off so cheaply?
Not I take It if Pullman Is true to its
historic name and remembers it is the
upper berth of Liberty. C. E. S. Wood
in Pacific Monthly. .
