ONE GIRL TO ANOTHER
How to Treat a Fracture.
Be very careful with .a single frac-
ture to prevent It from becoming com-
pound. The proper treatment Is to
pad and bandage the limb with splints
and anything else which can l>e Im-
provised, so as to hold It steadily In
position until your Injured man can be
carried comfortably to the camp or
nearest doctor. Don't get jolting him
or handling him with anything but
the greatest teudemess. If there are
no chances of getting a doctor, cut
all the clothing away from the Injured
limb, and when you have it bare get
some one else to help you. If you can.
Full straight on the end of the Injured
limb farthest away from the body, ami
as gently and firmly as possible ma-
nipulate the broken bone Into position.
You will know when this Is done by
the shuj>e of the limb.—Outing.
Business Advertising In 1748.
Judging from many advertisements
In the early New York newspapers, the
numbers of buildings were very little
used. Business houses were utgially
designated by a characteristic sign or
by the locality to other well known
residents. An example of the latter Is
seen In the following from the New
York Gazette of December, 174H.
Smith's Fly was at the foot of Malden
Lane.
“Henry Hansen, who lately kept bis
store next Door to Mr. John Groes-
beeck's, Is now removed to C’apL Rich-
ard Langdon's, In Smith's Fly oppo-
site to Col. De Peyster’s, Treasurer,
where he now keeps his Store. He has
likewise Imported In the lust Ships
from Loudon, a fresh Assortment of
European Goods.”
Lfo. Aong Distance J sit phoning isn't ex-
travagant.
\/ou cannot measure the joy oj hearing a
friends voice by the cost of telephoning,
‘‘J> guess you have never been away from
home and had a talk with your mother,
have you? Well, try it sometime and you
won) think much about the expense.”
A voice to-voice meeting is next best to a
face-to-face talk.

Mother’s Constancy.
There la an enduring teudemess in
the love of a mother for a son that
transcends all other affections of the
heart. It Is neither to be chilled by
selfishness nor daunted by danger nor
weakened by worthlessness nor stifled
by Ingratitude. She will sacrifice ev-
ery comfort to his convenience; she
will surrender every pleasure to his
enjoyment; she will glory In his fame
and exult iu his prosperity, and If mis-
fortune overtakes him he will be the
dearer to her through his misfortunes,
and If disgrace settles upon his name
she will still love and cherish him In
spite of his disgrace, and If all the
rest of the world casts him off she
will be all the world to him.—New
York Weekly.
Hitt and Missaa.
A brilliant after dinner speaker said
In one of his speeches at a banquet In
New York;
"I have learned two things in my
tiine—I have learned to run an auto-
mobile and I have learned to golf.
While learning to run an automo-
bile I hit everything, whereas while
learning to golf I hit nothing.”—Ex-
change.

DR. AXSON TALKS
TO A. G. GRADUATES
SHERMAN HALL CROWDED TO
HEAR ADDRESS BY EMINENT
EDFCATOIt.
■»
“There 1b room and opportunity
for every kind of college that has a
real purpose. I look to see a feder-
ation of American colleges In which
certain colleges will iay stress on
certain things. It will mean the ces-
sation of Intensity of rivalry In
which every college Is trying to du-
plicate the other.
‘The chief aim of the college is
that students may come to get then
minds thrilled, trained, devel</jed.
In the great things, rational anu
international, that lie ahead of us,
the evidence of the worth of Austin
College is In training men for social
service—the training of the worlu s
youth of today or the world’s good
of tomorrow."
That was the message la.-.t night
at Sherman Hall of Dr. Stockton Ax-*
son, representative of nice Institute,
the newest Institution rtf higher j
learning in Texas, to Austin College
at Its sixty-sixth commencement; |
the message'of the renowned scholar
and educator to the graduating class
of 1915.
Dr. Axson’s address brought forth
frequent applause from the audi-
ence which crowded Sherman Hall.
A strain of humor ran through much
of It, as the speaker told of his own
college days when a freshman at
Davidson College—at the mention of
which there was a burst of applause,
no, from among tne members of
the faculty seated on the stage,
The commencement activities have
beqn highly successful. If one thing
more than another has contributed
to the happiness of the season, it is
undoubtedly Sherman Hall. The pos-
session of the magnificent auditor-
ium has united every student par-
ticipating to the best efforts and as
a meeting place for visitors and stu-
dents Sherman Hall has been inval-
uable.
The program last night was open-
ed by organ selections by Prof. Case.
After the Invocation Mr. Gentry of
tho college glee club sang a well
received solo. Miss Gladys Davis
again won, by her solo, the enthus-
iastic favor of the audience. The
audience was thrilled by the rendi-
tion of the Humoresque by an in-
strumental quartet, Mrs. Cherry at
the piano; Mr. Case, the organ; Mr.
Littley, violin and Mr. Rigby, cello.
The speaker of 0. P. Owen, saltt-
talorlfiin: L. S. Winston, third honor
trnan, and H. F. Wager, chosen by
the faculty for the evening's prq-
gram, were excellent and received
from Dr. A-xson a graceful compli-
ment for the "spirit of purposeful-
ness'’ that permeated them.
L. J. Rherrlll of Haskell, a mem-
ber of the class of 191ti, won the

I looked "hexameter" up In the dictionary
and find It is a poetic verse of six feet.
Now. that makes MO feet, or 100 yards of

SUCCESSORS TO MURPHY D. G CO.
To the skeptical individual that
wants to be “shown," the following
signed statement from Mr, R. E.
Anderson, who lives at'No. 209 Sil-
ver street, Akron, Ohio, will prove
of interest. Mr. Anderson is a
traveling salesman for a prominent
Akron firm and is well known and
highly esteemed here. He said:
’’Having suffered from chronic
indigestion and tried so many prep-
arations which did me no good, I
became skeptical of anything really
helping roe. Finally I was per-
suaded to try riant-Juice by a
friend who had been benefltted by
it. I find that It has done all that
was claimed for it. Being on the
road continually and being compell-
ed to eat all kinds of food, I lost
weight, felt miserable and finally
become a chronic dyspeptic, abso-
lutely worn out and cornu not work
with any spirit or amlbition, I
noticed almost Instant improvement
after beginning the use of Plant
Juice. I continued to improve until
today 1 am practically physically
back Into my old form and have no
one to thank for this recovery to
health but Plant Juice, for I an^
now cured of my ills.”
Plant Juice Is sold In Sherman

vertisement.

A meeting of the alumni associa-
tion yesterday niorfting was produc-
tive of action that is a great en-
couragement tfO the student-body
and forecasts a larger and more
helpful participation by the alumni
in the activities of the college. The
association pledged itself to pay
$2000 to the student athletic asso-
ciation by June t, 191G, the money
to be raised by popular subscription
among the members. President rv.
L. Rundell outlined plans for * an
alumni publication- to ccnVey to for-
mer students current college news
and serve as the organ of the alum-
ni association. Subscriptions were
at once forthcoming, sufficient, it is
stated, to assure the first two issues
of the publication.
Dr. Clyce took occasion at the
conclusion of the program to extend
to the citizens of Sherman the deep
appreciation on the part of the col-
lege authorities of their manifesta-
tions of interest In tne commence-

In his book “At the End of the
Trail" E. A. Powell, F. U- G. S„ pays
the following tribute to California road
building:
"I am convinced that If the several
thousand Americans who go on annual
motor trips through Europe, either tak-
ing their cars with them or hiring
them on the other side, could only be
made tp^realize that on the edge of
the western ocean they can find roads
as smooth and well built as the Eng-
lish highways or, the routes natlonales
of France, and mountains as' high and
sublimely beautiful as the Alps or the
Pyreuees, and scenery more varied
and lovely than Is to be found between
Christiania and Capri, and vegetation
as luxuriant and hotels more luxurious
than on the Cote d’Azur, and a milder,
sunnier, more equable climate than
anywhere else on the globe, they
would come pouring out In such num-
bers that there wouldn't be garages
•nougb to hold their cars.”
