DA MEL BAKED COLLEGE.
Brownuood. Texas.
The twenty-fourth annual session of
Daniel Baker College opens Thursday,
September 12th. If present prospects
uiaiciiunze anu present plans mature,
this will be the greatest opening in the
hiBtory of the institution. It will be
the greatest opening in that more new
students are expected than at any one
opening in the past. The held agents
have been very busy throughout the
entire summer, covering territory where
the claims of this institution have
never before been presented. These
three agents report encouraging prospects
from all the terirtory covered.
In addition to the men employed by the
college to visit different parts of the
state, President Junkin has spent the
most of his time presenting the claims
of Daniel Baker to the PresbyterianB
of the state. Another item of encour
agement is the fact that a greater per
cent, .of last year's students will return
to continue their courses.
Improvements in and about the
buildings have been in progress all
summer. The boys' Club Home has
been remodeled, refitted and refurnished
so that the young men of the
institution may have comfortable quarters
and elegant surroundings. The
girls' dormitory has been put In perfect
sanitary condition for the opening of
school. A new music studio has been
secured for the departments of fine
arts. The library and reading room
has been replenished so that a more
select collection of fiction, reference
works and periodicals cannot be found

Many improvements have been made in
the administration budding, adding to
the convenience of the literary depart.lenta.
The room reservations in both the
boys' and girlB* dormitories have
doubled those of last year at this time
It is very probable that many will have
to be turned away from these dormitories
during the com.ng session.
Another encouraging feature of the
summer campaign is the number of .
families moving to Brownwood for the
advantages to be had in this institution.
Many families moved here last
session and as many more are expected
this year.
The faculty for the session of 191213
has been increased from the best
teaching talent in America. This year
the music conservatory will receive especial
attention. Mr. H. J. Jenny, of
the (New England Conservatory of

Alany improvements of a substantial
nature are being made this summer
at Virginia lntermont College, Bristol.
Va. Much painting has been done; all
tne windows on the western exposure
are being rnaae double glass with - a
cushion of air between the glass, thus
affording protection against the cold
blasts of winter; new baths are being
constructed, and many of the rooms
will be furnished with new mattresses
and stationary washstands with running
water, both hot and cold. All
tnese and many other improvements of
a minor nature will add much to the
comfort of the students and efficiency
of the school.

CATTLE-KAJJWLNU UN THE SOUTHEAST.
With the view of encouraging the
Soutneastern. farmer to put the whole
larm to work by introducing beef cattle
Hi tne system of farming and to give
practical aid in tills work, the Southern
Railway Company has just issued an
attractive booklet giving valuable instruction
on the feeding and management
of beef cattle. The booklet calls
attention to. the fact that only about
forty percent, of arable land of the
Southeastern States Is being used, and
declares that by the introduction of
stock raising the remaining sixty per
cent, could be made to return handsome
profit and the land greatly enriched.
Prof. R. S. Curtis, of the North
Carolina Experiment Station, and Prof.
Dan T. Gray, of the Alabama Experiment
Station, both eminent authoritias
on animal industry, contribute articles
to the booklet which set out in detail
the methods to. be pursued in feeding
and nananng cattle to secure the most
profitable ersults. The Southern Railway
desires to give this booklet wide
distribution throughout the South, and
copies will be gladly mailed to -those
interested on application to F. L. Word,
Live Stock Agent, Atlanta, Qa.

are wrong, surrender them; consistency

ALCOHOL AND THE COMMUNITY. j
Dr. Henry Smith Willlama, in Mc- J
Clares Magazine, deals with the effects 1
of alcohol upon the community, and Is a
discussion of the most available Btatls- '
tics concerning the deleterious effects or
intoxlcadng liquors upon society, producing
insanity, pauperism, and crime.
These statistics, contends IDr. Williams,
understate rather than overstate the
facts. The statistics are gathered from
many sourceB, both in this country and
in Europe. -Dr. Williams' summary is
instructive. He says:
"It will be observed that these estimates,
ascribing from one-third to onehalf
of the recognized poverty of the I
Fatherland to the effects of alcohol, are
singularly in harmony with the estimates
made for England by British in
vestlgators and with the careful statistics
compiled for America by the Com- '
m 1 tton r\t J ?
M.vvw W* *4*^. v^uvu vuncoyuuucuut
can not well be accidental. They give
secure Warrant for the belief that; at
least one-third of all the recognized
pauperism In the most highly civilized
communities of Christendom results
from bodily and mental overthrow of
fully one-fourth of all the unfortunates
who are sent to asylums for the Insane;
for the misfortunes of two-fifths of neglected
or abandoned children; and for
the moral delinquency of at least half of
the convicts in our jails and workhouses.
We have previously seen how
alcohol addB to the death roll through
allegiance with all manner of physical
maladies. Did space permit, it might be
shown how largely the same common
enemy is responsible for suicides and
sudden deaths by accident in many
lands, for the universal prevalence of
veneral diseases with all that they imply,
and for a large proportion of such
cases of marital infelicity a? find record
in the divorce court."
WHAT THE LIQUOR TBAFEIC
THIS KS OF THE ANTI-SALOOfi
LEAGUE.
The liquor trade has to acknowledge
the power of the Anti-Saloon League.
It engages the brainiest preachers,
brainiest lawyers and the brainiest
politicians in the country. As a prohibition
measure, it is doing more than
all other temperance forces combined.
The Wholesalers' and Retailers' Review.
The ramifications of the Anti-Saloon
League are now general. Its missionaries
are iu every State and its work
Is thoroughly organized. Organization
and system have made the Anti-Saloon
League a success.?Beverages.
The Anti-Saloon League is prohibition
under another name, but the prohibition
of the past was never directed as this
movement is directed or an
this movement 1b financed. We have a
foe to reckon With now that la worth)'
of our steel, and we are to be vie*
torioue in the battle surely coming, we
must march to the front united, and
must have but one flag and one battle
cry.
We have had many so-called temperance
and prohibition waves In this
country in the past, but never before
such a well-organized movement as the
one being directed by the Anti-Saloon
League. It would be foolish not to
credit the men .who are directing this
movement with great ability, directness
of purpose and generalship.?Bonfort'e
wine and Spirit Circular.
The Anti-Saloon League has been,
and now Is, the real potential organization
which furthers prohibition In this
country.?J. F. Walters, State Chairman
Texas Liquor Interests.
The organization (the Anti-Saloon
League), is drilled for prompt service
In State and Nation and the effectiveness
of Its training and discipline Is
shown in every mo.ve it makes. We
