Twentieth Century Club.
The meeting of the Twentieth
Century club Friday afternoon
was indeed a literary feast. Roll
call, “Favorite modern novel and
why,” showed the club members
to be familiar with many of the
best modern writers of fiction.
Mrs. H. N. Key led the lesson
and made it bright and interest-
ing, notwithstanding it was one
of Poe’s weird, fanciful tales,
“The Fall of the House of Ush-
er.” This is conceded by critics
to be Poe’s masterpiece in prose.
It shows his unequaled power of
awe and mystery, and his art of
fusing the mind and body in a
wonderful harmony here reaches
perfection.
A paper, “The American Nov-
el in England,” by Miss Lallage
Hughs, was well written. She
treated of the authors who live,
or have lived abroad. Bret Harte,
Amelie Rives, James Lane Allen,
Mary Wilkins. Mrs. Hale’s pa-
per, contrasting the short stories
of Bret Harte with Poe’s tales to
bring out the romantic and the
realistic methods, showed careful
study and much thinking. The
club enjoyed these papers, also a
reading, Poe’s “Helen,” by Miss
Labbaitte.
On account of the club failing
to receive the books called for in
the year book, some changes
were made in the course of study.
A full report from the library
was given. The club voted to
donate a heating stove to the
rest room, which is badly needed,
and will soon be put in place.
Miss Eads, a former member,
was gladly received. Mrs. Frank
Wilkes was unanimously voted,
in as an active member.
After a searching report from
our capable critic, Mrs. Skinner,
the club adjourned. The mem-
bers present were: Mesdames
Key, Smith, Skinner, Browning,
Abney, Denson, Hale, Paine,
Misses Hughs, Labbaitte and
Eads. X
Notaries Public.
I shall recommend all the no-
taries now in office in my district
for re-appointment. Others who
desire appointment will please
notify me at once.

Rev. Rex Willies conducted
the morning servicAat the Meth-

mon being a strong argument
in favor of Christian education,

which he represents|, and there-
fore support and material assist-
ance to the training/school.which
the Methodist church is estab-
lishing at Cheroket£v having con-
tracted for the b\ildings and
grounds formerly ufied as the
“West Texas Normal! and Busi-
ness College.” Mr.l Wilkes is
the general agent of tiiis new in-
stitution and statecf that the
training school would! commence
under the auspices of the church
on the first Monday in September
of the present year. ; In his ca-
pacity as financial agejit he is
collecting money and securing
pledges to complete the purchase
price of the buildings and
grounds, and every prospect ap-
pears favorable to success.

U. are asked not to forget the

er business'interests. He has a
ranch some eight miles east of
Lampasas, which Mrs. Bean
looks after while he works in the
oil fields.
Mark Bean, who has made his
home at Rdck Springs for many
years, is here on a visit to his
mother, Mrs. Julia Bean, his sis-
ters, Mesdames Barnett and

friends. Mr. Bean was raised a
few miles west of Lampasas, and
has many friends who are pleased
to meet him again.
Rev. Jerome Haralson spent
several days at the workers’ con-
ference at Kempner, and had the
privilege of conducting the Sun-
day services in his own way. He
has long been an active minister,
and does not know how to be
idle, although his name has not
been on the active list for some
years.
New pumping machinery for
the city water works has arrived

time. It is claimed that the new
pumps will show more than
twice the capacity of the ma-
chinery now in use and that the
facilities for fighting lire will
thus be greatly improved, as well
as the water supply of every
part of the city.
