(a) That each teacher make him-
self acquainted with the educational
survey report and pass the informa-
tion on to his community.
(b) That the Matagorda County
Institute continue to be a local In-

than others. For this reason it would
seem to be a mistake to rest the ap-
peal for observance of prohibition
laws merely upon the general duty
to 'obey the law.” Rather an attitude
of intelligent sympathy toward the
law itself must be built up if it is
to be generally observed.

“Observations made by some vet-

that some of his cattle again showed
