A SUPPLEMENTARY OBSERVATORY
Acting with meritorious conservatism, regents of
the University of Texas are not going to spend the
$800,000 astronomical observatory fund given by the
late wiam J. McDonald on equipment which du-
plicates existing equipment. President H. Y Benedict
of the university has announced that the McDonald
observatory will be supplementary to other great in-
stitutions maintained by the leading universities.
By limiting the sphere of activity of the Texas ob-
servatory. the university hopes to make a really
worth while addition to the scientific equipment of
that type, rather than to spend money for expensive
telescopes of high magnifying power which might be
surpassed within a few years by newer equipment.

BUFFALO TO BE SAVED
The famous herd of Texas buffalo on the Good- :
night ranch up in the Panhandle will be preserved
for posterity as a unit and will not be sold piece-
meal to become steaks or isolated specimens in zoos.
A group of Dallas men has purchased the herd from
the foreclosed ranch property and the animals will
be left there util some permanent preserve can be
obtaind.
When Texas takes over the Palo Duro Canyon as
a state park. It is hoped that it will se fit to buy the
herd and give it eternal refugasafe from financial dir-
fioulties such as has just endangered its existence. The
number of buffalo allve today is almost insignificant
in comparison with the herds upon herds of these
animals which roamed the prairies before the white
man came with riflea and almost caused the sRecies
to become extinct. Fortunately, however? aFew -far-
sighted individuals like the wife of Col Goodnight
provided sanctuaries for these shaggy beasts and
today their number is increasing.

BEGINS HIS TWENTY-FIRST TERM
When the directors of the Denton Retail Mer-
chants Association met the other day to elect new
officers, they re-elected as a matter of course W. E
Mann, secretary of the association for the last 20
years, and he started work on his twenty-first year
in the office without much ado. Heading, the retail
merchants association almost since its inception. Sec-
retary Mann has been largely responsible for the
smooth sailing of the organization and the maxi-
mum benefits which have been derived by the as-
sociation members. It is a record of which to be
proud. ,

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16-Notes from our na-

J. J. Stubbs of Robstown, Texas, that his prize-

as the official party wax cry this year. A magazine
ofered a kloO prize and Senators Copeland of New

on.
At the store where mother usu-
ally bought her groceries he ap-
parently considered his trip ended
and parked his new toy between
two baskets cf apples and wander-
ed into the shop
Here his mother caught up with
him. He greeted her with a smile
and after she had made a few pur-
chases contentedly rolled himself
home at her aide.
That was a fine adventure. To
be sure. It could only hare been
permitted in a safe little town but
it is a sample of the kind of ex-
perience which all young children
stould be permitted to have
it is fine for a two-year-old to

There are many more such op-

modern environment.

It is likely that the vague charges made by the

as a rule, reflect the attitude of the majority of their
readers, and it is expected by the minority that the
subject in which the majority are interested will be
given prominence in the newspapers, regardless of
which side is represented in the majority. That some of
the largest papers in the country art. from a dry

that the sentiment in the larger cities is wet.
