I ns( i t n( ions Of
Our Stute
Learning
The Beacon has before stated that
there are more than five thousand Texa
students who go outside the state every
year to finish their- education. If our
University, A. & M. College and state-
normals were udmitedly inferior in any
way to the higher institutions of learn
ing in other states, then there would
appear a plausible reason for our young
men and women going away from home
to finish their educations. But we do
not admit nor can it be demonstrated
that the University and collegiate cur-
riculums of our state institutions are in
the least deficient or not the equal in
any way of any colleges in the whole
union. There is and must be a reason
or reasons for this large number of our
young people going elsewhere for their
higher schooling. We do not pretend
to know the reasons why this is the case
but there are at least two that occur to
us as being very strong causes for this
condition of affairs.
The first of these we believe is the
failure of our district and high schools
to give to their pupils a comprehensive
idea and appreciation of the high grade
of our state finishing schools. We have
set a standard for our high schools
which if attained entitles the pupils to
admission to the state University with-
out further preparation, but the pupil
has and gains but small conception of
the advantage he thus cecsures. As a
remedy for this we suggest that some-
thing pertaining to the University and
A. & M. College and other state insti-
stutions should be made a part of the
common school curriculum. Relatively
speaking these state schools are new in
the educational field, and publicity and
familiarity are just as essential to an
educational institution to bring pupils
to it as is to anything else depending
«*■
College? Our point we believe needs
no further elucidation. Tell Texas
people, and let them know and see
what they have, and we are sure they
will not fail to be duly appreciative.
What Texas needs today is to dis-
courage the calamity howler, not in the
usual political sense, but as pertaining
to the real things of our own state.
Seemingly the State press delights to
print views and narrate with minutia
anything and everything in the way of
calamity or disparagement, We think
Galveston did the right thing when
she declared kodaks countraband after
the recent storm. Why go to Galves-
ton especially for the evidences of storm
damage? If such pictures were desire-
able, then the snapshotters should have
followed in the wake of that storm all
the way through the State, and then
on into Arkansas, Missouri, Illinois,
Indiaua and Ohio and on till it passed
the Atlantic seaboard. Just as much
destruction, and sometimes more would
have been found all along the line as i
at Galveston. Finally what’s the use of
continually telling of the things that
may appear to our disadvantage and det-
riment and saying so little of the good
things, and still urging people to come
among us and help in the upbuilding
of a great comonwealth?
We ought to cut out the "jingoism" i n
our state and local affairs, and especially
where our state institutions of learning
are concerned. What is needed is the!
NUMBER 36
The Mexican Muddle.
The following editorial from a recent
issue of the Galveston News to our
mind explains the Mexican situation-
and the underlying causes of the cry
for tinned intervention that comes
from certain newspapers and other
source.-:, If we have war with Mexico
it will be our own “jingoes"and money
and land grabbers who will bring it
about. We are pursuaded that in his
policy of watchful waiting President
Wii .) has known all along just who
he was watching and has had his eye on
the right parties all the time.
The El Paso Times asserts that the
recent invasion near Brownsville was
the result of causes set in motion by in-
terests in this country that are bent on
forceing the United States to intervene
in the affairs of Mexico. Those inter-
ests, according to the Times, have been
made desperate by the fear that the
efforts now on foot to bring about a
peaceful settlement in Mexico will suc-
ceed. A peaceful settlement which
would result in putting the revolution-
ary party in power. A settlement which
should restore Huerta or some other
representative of his faction in power
would not be intolerable. It would be
far preferable to a settlement which put
any one of the factions now fighting in
peaceful possession of the country.
But intervention by the United States
is their desideratum, for they believe
that, once the flag of the United States
should be set up in Mexico, they would
manipulate political forces in a way to
prevent its ever being hauled down.
And of course their investments would

pictures or views of the principal build
ings of the State University and A. &
M. College, to be framed and hung on
the walls of these school rooms, that
their appearance might become familiar
to the eye of the advancing pupil,
hese would be a constant and pleasing
inder of the fact that Texas offers
jV .fiviting facilities for completing the
A//education of her sons and daughters.
But the thing that has thus far mili-
tated against our State institutions more
than anything else is that we seemingly
cannot get them divorced from politics;
and that too of the cheapest sort. Every
proposition for the betterment of the
educational facilities of the state is made
political capital of by aspirants for office.
And while growing eloquent over some
- thing they may think will be best for
the schools they deride and belittle any
other measures favored by their oppo-
nents. Such campaign discussions
bring our higher schools into disrepute
more or less with our own peoplr.
Then with our schools as with other
public matters the press and platform
orators appear to delight in dwelling
upon anthing that may be said to our
discredit -whether merited or not.
As pertaioing to our higher institu-
tions of learning, it is quickly recalled
that it has not been a great while since
the University sought to make needed
improvements from its own resources,
and to win public sanction and favor
pictures of the temporary shacks that
were having to be used on account of
the crowded conditions of the buildings
already provided, were printed and
scattered broadcast over the state, and
everybody was made familiar with them.
The same was true of A. & M. College
when on account of the large atten-
dance pupils had to be tempotarily
housed in tents. These views certainly
did not appear inviting to the young
man or woman graduating from a high
school, the building itself being attrac-
tive and modern and up to date, as
places in yvhich to finish their education.
We are quite sure that every school
boy and girl in the state would at once
recognise the picture of the state capital
at Austin, How many of them or of
the older ones of the stete, tor that
matter, would know and recognise the
picture of the main building of the
University at Auatin, or of A. & M.
preventing disease and death is well
shown also by the decrease in the death
rates in the same cities as modern sani-
tation has advanced. From 1871 to
1885, the death rate in Berlin was 26.5
per thousand of population. This had
fallen to 14.7 in 1910. The death rate
in London during the same period fell
from 20.9 to 12.7; in Paris from 24.4
to 16.7; in Vienna from 28.2 to 15.8: in
New York from 27.5 to 16; in Chicago
from 21.5 to 15.1. This would mean
that in a city like New York each year
machinations and money which have
kept the aimless warfare going from
then to now. Undoubtedly, if there
should ever be a full history of the
Mexican revolution, it will disclose
much that is discreditable to men in
this country. And then, if such a his
tory shall be,written, the facts will ex
plain much that is now inexplicable to
us. Perhaps we shall then see that
the president has had to deal not mere-
ly w ith the factions of Mexico, but
with a capitalistic cabal in this country

Truly this is an age of conservation;
conservation both through economy and
utilization of heretofore wasted or only
partially used products.
The University of Texas has issued
bulletin enumerating the multiple
uses which may be made of the Texas
peanut. No longer may this popular
adjunct be arbitrarily confined to pea-
nut stands and to red soda water coun-
ters.
The peanut, through scientific inves-
tigations, has been raised to the stand-
ard of the pea and the bean in its re-
lation to modern diet. Many appetiz-
ing dishes may easily be made from the
peanut, all of which are contained in
this little bulletin.
In addition to its prolific yield
in Texas, and ita consequently
cheap price, the peanut is one of the
most nutritious foods known to man.
Peanut butter, which may easily be
made by any housewife, it said to have
three times the food value of a soggy
egg sandwich for the school child.
Recipes are included in the bulletin
for the making of soups, breads, dress-
ings and deserts.

the peanut as an article of family diet

letin by addreseing the Extension De-

Hoy Scouts Organized
It is a great pleasure for the Beacon
to say that through the good efforts of
Mr. Eldon Travis, who is a trained and
competent scout master, a troop of the
j Boy Scouts of America has been or-
ganized at Palacios, and that the boys
thu9 far enlisted are enthusiastic in the
work.
Our readers are sufficiently acquaint-
ed with the purposes and scope of the
work of the scouts to know that it merits
the commendation and co-operation of
everyone and especially the parents of
young boys. Scout work gives the boys
something definite to do, and appeals
all the time to the best that is in them,
inspiring an ambition to do things that
are worth while, and giving them prac-
tical training in useful and helpful ac-
complishments, without in any way
cultivating or developing the military
spirit.
A committee of three citizens to be
appointed by the Board of Trade will
act as an advisory council, passing upon
applications for membership and acting
as a court for the trial of any guilty of
violating any of the scout laws or usages.
We recall that effort was made some
years ago to organize the Boy Scouts at
Palacios, but the movement could not
be perfected for want of a competent
scout master to lead, drill and instruct
the boys. This need is now supplied
by Mr. Travis, and we are sure that the
organization will be a success and prove
of untold benefit to the boys of the city,
and we bespeak for the organization
the hearty approval and encouragement
of all our citizens.
