HYMENEAL
Ex-Texan and Templeite Succeeds in
West.
(Dallas News Monday)
J. M. Davis, general superinten-
dent of the Oregon Short Line rail-
road and the lines of ihe Southern
Pacific east of Sparks, Nev., was a
Tliitor in Dallas Saturday, accom-
panied by his wife. Mr. and Mrs.
Davis were guests of Mr and Mrs.
E. B. Do ran.
Mr. Davis is a Texas product, hav-
ing been born aud reared in Pales-
tine, and like most successfur rail-
road men, he was "raised" in the bus-
iness. He started in a humble capa-
city with the Santa Fe railroad about
twenty years ago. when a youth, and
gradually but surtly worked his way
np the ladder. For the last thirteen
years he has been in the West, atid
was recently given an important pro-
motion with the Southern Pacific
System—the position he now holds.
I find that Dallas has grown won-
derfully in tin last four years," said
Mr. Davis. "I can see signs of im-
provement on every hand. But you
have not the only section of America
that shows unusual advancement.
Utah and Idaho are in the list of the
States where progress and prosperity
tre paramount. One reason for this
1» that the corporations are being
treated fairly, they encounter no ad-
verse laws and in repayment they art
dumping money into those two states
that goes for the development of the
country. All that is needed to make
Utah and Idaho garden spots is water
and that is bting found. Irrigation
Is becoming a high art with us. Tou
Texans eat our potatoes every year
and a short time ago I saw a ship-
ment of Idaho peaches on sale at a
local fruit stand. Fair exchange is
no robbery, however, and early in the
year we have Texas vegetables serv-
ed on our tables. The fruit ship-
ments from Idaho and rtah about
this time of year are a considerable
part of a railroad's tonnage, and ev-
erything is being done to further de-
velop this traffic."
Mr. and Mrs. Davis left Saturday
Wght for Denver over the Texas and
PMlflc as rar as Fort Worth and the
Fbrt Worth and Denver to destina-
tion^ Before leaving Texas they visit
•d Mr Davis1 old home and relatives
»t Palestine.

The Week in Football
New York. Oct. 26 —This week's
gridiron contests include only one
Wednesday, that between the N'avy
important game to be decided on
and George Washington. On Satur-
day several contests of considerable
interest are scheduled, perhaps the
most notable being that between
Princeton and West Point on the
field of the latter institution. Brown
will go to Cambridge for the annua)
contest with Harvard and the Provi-
dence team is exultant at the possi-
bility of scoring a victory over the
Crimson eleven. Yale will have as
its opponents at New Haven the
strong team of the Massachusetts
Agricultural College, and the "farm-
ers will do their best to humble the
haughty pride of the sons of old Eli
Pennsylvania will play Swarthmore
at Franklin Field. The Carlisle In-
dians will play the Navy at Annapo-
lis. The strong aggregation from
Pennsylvania State College will go to
Ithaca and attempt to repeat their
victory over Cornell.
In the West, the big game next
Saturday will be that between Minne-
sota and Chicago, which promises to
develop one of the most exciting con-
tests ever seen on Marshall Field.
Nebraska and Iowa will clash at Io
wa City. Indiana and Illinois will
meet on the gridiron of the latter
and Wisconsin will p]ay Marquette
College at Madison.
One of the most important inter-
sectional contests of the season will
be decided next Saturday at Ann Har
bor, Mich., when Vanderbilt Univer-
sity, which has the strongest football
squad in the South, will plav the
University of Michigan eleven.'

The tents of the Gentry Bros,
show were pitched on the vacant lots
within less than a stone's throw of
the Lanier school building. Realizing
the attraction a show of this sort
has for the young, Supt. Kimball cal
led Sunday afternoon on Manager
Finney and between the two, a "com
promise agreement" was arrived at
w ereby the matinee performance
was delayed at an hour later than
usual so as not to detract from the
studies of the children, and Supt.
Kimball authorized studies to close
In this school at an earlier afternoon
hour than usual. As a further cour-
tesy from the (show's management
the children and teachera were ten-
dered reserved seats without extra
charge and were complimented with
free admission to the concert per-
formance terminating the matinee
performance.
Still further courtesy from Mana
ser Finney extended to the local
schools was to agree with Supt Kim-
ball's suggestion that the parade in
the forenoon be timed to occur dur-
ing one of the regular recess periods.
It is the willingness to co-operate
