Present at the meetipg were Pres
idem Owsley and Directors Rayzor.
Evans. Blewett. Deavenport, Schweer,
Christal and Edwards. The election
of the secretary was discussed at
length. A number of very desirable
applicants were considered for the
place, following the announcement
last week that the club would con-
sider applications and elect at this
meeting.
A number of minor matters were
discussed at some lengj, one being
in reference to the meeting of the
Boys’ Corn clubs her,e Saturday.
May 14th. when the members of the
different clubs will be guests of the

owners affected the right of contest-
ing the order before the city coun-
cil, but to the courts as wen. The
city’s funds for its part of me work
is limited. If stands to reason, it Is
urged, therefore, that the countU
would order the street improve-
ments made and the town’s money
for that purpose expended, not on-
ly where it was most wanted by the
citizens affected, but where it would
do the greatest good to the great-
est number. In effect, it is claimed,
this would make an addition to the
local opton principle in thaat the
council would confine its work to
those streets whose property owners
petitioned for it. Tbe main purpose
of those favoring the law, it is said,
is to give property owners a remedy
for a condition that lets a few men
on a street block and set at naught
the wishes of the great majority of
ot ter citizens on that thoroughfare
and not, as some have stated, t>
oorder improvements where t..ey are
not wanted or where thhe citizens
are unable to pay for them. There
is every reason to believe, if the
election results favorably, that to
secure the council’s order for the
improvements. If will require a pe-

Although little interest has been [
taken heretofore in the special elec-
tion to be held tomorrow tue citizens
are waking up to its importance and
the discuss on of its features has
been general today with most of
the discussers lacking knowledge of
the provisions of the new law under
which Hie election is to be held.
. Many have wanted to know the
principal features qf the law, which
was passed at one of the called ses -
sions of the Thlrty-f’rst Legislature
and for that purpose the main para-
graphstn the law are published be-
low. / One objection tnat was urg-
ed is that the law delegates -o the
council the right to name the streets
on which the improvements are to b
made. The reply made to this was
that the law properly safeguards
the rights of the clVzeng by provid-
ing that no assessment shall be
made without giving the property
Hon. Cone Johnson left Denton on j
the Dallas local Thursday morning
for Lewisville. He was accompan-
ied by W. B. McCiurkan and G. C
Masters from here.
Mr. Johnson reached Lewisville
at about 9 o'clock and was met at
t_e depot by a large committee ot
citizens and a brass band. From the
depot he was driven to the Russell
Academy where he delivered a non-
poltical address to the students of
tnat institution- He was given n
cordial reception by the young peo-
ple.
Dr. Salmon entertained Mr. John-
son at his home until the time ar-
rived for his address at the opera
house.
The house was filled when Mr.
Johnson arrived, all tbe seats being
taken and but little standing room
being left when he began his speech.
Mr. McCiurkan, who was with M
Johnson, said:
•’Wh..e the crowd at first did not
applaud tbe speaker in some of his
statements it was only a short-time
until he bad them with him and
when he was handling -he prohibi-
tion question he was liberally ap
plauded. Many favorable comments
were heard at the conclusion of his
speech and I think that he made
many votes there. He was well re-
ceived and was given close attention
all through his speech.'’
The speaker was introduced b<
Re*. Mr. Lampton, pastor of the
<rst Presbyterian church. He spok •
for an hour and a half along the
same lines of h's addresses else-
where. He referred to his oppon-
ents good humoredly and said that

Parents cannot start too

There is no habit that will
add more to the good .charac-

and thorough contentment of a
life than the habit of saving. A
good way to encourage this
habit is by opening an ac-
