Part of Short Course Crowd See
South Texas on Return Home.
A trip to Galveston from A. &
M. short course was a side trip
event. Mrs. W. R. Cannon of Bur-
ton Springs Club, Mrs. Will King
and Miss Eva Hunt of Antelope
Club, and Miss Lynn made the
trip, returning by way of Hous-
ton, Austin, and Waco. Besides
enjoying the bay and gathering
sea shells, and the historic points
of interest, the cross-country
drive gave much opportunity to
observe rural home development
in the sections covered. Yard
improvement, convenience and at-
tractiveness of outside premises,
diversification in field crops, gar-
edning, orcharding and poultry,
all were subjects of interest and
conversation in the group. All
the group brought back souvenirs
in the form of the popular
tan” of the season.

Excavation for the new school
building began Monday. The
contractor, Mr. Naylor, is doing
this and local men almost wholly
have been employed for this work.
Mr. Naylor states that he will use
local labor as much as possible
throughout construction.
Mr. Herrin, who has the con-
tract for the repair of the old
building is pushing his job and
will have it finished about Sep-
tember 1st. This will make this
building equal in comfort to the
new one.
Five busses for the transporta-
tion of pupils have been purchas-
ed and will be delivered in a few
days and drivers will have some
time before the opening of school
to become familiar with and
break in their equipment.
According to present plans
school will open the second Mon-
day in September and arrange-
ments are being made for such
additional room as will be needed
before the completion of the? new
building.

The new state aid law provides
a bonus of $300.00 for each dis-
trict consolidated under the coun-
ty grouping plan to be paid as
soon as the consolidation is effect-
ed. The law also provides foe"
half of the transportations cost
not to exceed $300; for such con-
solidated districts. This applies
in the partial completion of hight
school units. Upon the comple-
tion of the high school unit such
consolidated districts will receive
the remaining $200.00 per dis-
trict. Under the old law a district1
could not receive the bonus or
transportation aid until the unit
was completed. This will eneour-- ;
age the partial completion of s
high school units.

Garlic Stew Beat Napoleon
A COOK who spoiled the broth eon-
tribnted to the wrecking of Na-
poleon’s brilliant prospects after his
victory In the battle of Dresden In
the campaign of 1813-1814.
At grips with nearly all of Europe
and closely pressed by the armies af
Russia. Prussia and Austria,.Napoleon
turned defeat into victory at Dresden
by a swift movement that brought him
and his guard overland from Silesia to
succor St. Cyr and twenty thousand
troops, beleaguered in Dresden. The
magic of the great warrior’^ presence I
infused new enthusiasm in the worn-
out troops. “There he is! There he 1
is f* was shouted on all sides as the
emperor crept through a murderous |
Austrian lire to enter the city.
The following day Napoleon laid a j
concentrated artillery fire on the al- i
lied center, and sent Ney against the 1
right and Murat against the left. The
allies broke and retreated leaving !
twenty thousand prisoners. Through-
out this day Napoleon rode about his
lines, bis clothing soaked and that
night be suffered a slight chill. His
spirits had risen, however, and he be- j
lieved that the tide at last had turned
in his favor. General Vandamme, In !
the enemy’s rear, was expected to j
complete the annihilation of the re- j
treating Russians and Prussians, lie
failed, partly through iiis own weak
tactics and partly through Napoleon’s
failure to pursue his advantage. The
latter was laid low by an attack of
illness, which some attributed to ex-
posure and exhaustion, but which the
emperor, himself, said was “nothing
but an attack of indigestion caused
by a wretched stew seasoned with j
gallic, which I cannot endure.”
The Napoleonic army was cut to
pieces In its subsequent retreat and ;
from that time, August, 1818, misfor-
tune dogged the steps of the emperor
