Sunday was a banner day for at-
tendant upon tin- Baptist ri-vlval,
and at some of the services "funding
room was at a premium.
Good sermons ruled, und un open
air meeting wus held In the after-
noon.
The large auditorium and the Sun-
day schooi rooms were all tilled to
evertlowlng with worshipers at the
First Baptist church Sunday morn-
ing and again Sunday night. The
largest crowd was at the evening
service, many ehulrs were put in the
aisle and at every uvaiulde space to
accommodate the many who desired
to hear the evangelist.
In the afternoon the evangelist
held services at the South McKinney
Mission The house was crowded.
Mr. and Mrs. Reynolds sang and Mr.
Copnss preached. Four were received
Into the fellowship of the church,
making nineteen received during the
week.
The music nt the services Sunday
was great. The Ringing of the two
large choirs, and of the great congre-
gation was inspiring. The *olos and
duets of Mr. and Mrs. Reynolds were
most sweetly rendered and were
spiritually uplifting.
The sermons of Evangelist Copass
. re strong and vigorous, and ln di-
rectness end force reminded one of
John the Baptist, Sam Jones and
Billy Sunday. It was a great day of
seed sowing, and the promises are,
"My word shall not return unto me
void, but shall prosper In the things
whereto 1 sent it. They that go forth
weeping bearing precious seed shall
doubtless come again with rejoicing
bringing his sheaves with him. In
due season ye shall reap If ye faint
not."
Three services were announced
for today, at the church at 10 n. m.
:,nil 7:1" r> m. and on the east side
of th, court house at 3 p. m. The
plan is fur the services to continue
throughout the week every day at 10
a in and at 7:45 p. m. nnd ns Mr.
Reynolds says to begin on schedule
tin,. The indications are that the
meltings will be more Interesting this
w«'k. The pastor of the church and

it.'nations to the people of McKinney

al services.

Austin, Texas, May 3. Much Inter-
est has been shown in the proposi-
tion presented to the Legislature in
a message from Governor Ferguson
Saturday submitting the question of
appropriating $1,000.000 for State aid
to rural schools. Hills to that end, in
the preparation of which the Gover-
nor took active part, were Immedi-
ately introduced In the House by Mr
Wagstaff, chairman of the appropri-
ations poinmlttee, and Spcifker
Woods.
This is Hie first bill the Speaker of
the House has signed as author, cith-
er In regular or special session. The
bill was introduced In the Senate by
Senators Cowell, Bee, Hudspeth,
Heresford, Darwin, Conner, Hender-
son King. McGregor, Paige, Johnson,
West brook and McColliim.
Text of Message
"To the Thirty-Fourth Legisla-
ture In Called Session: Tn deliberat-
ing upon the question of how best to
expend the public money, I desire to
submit for your special consideration
the necessity of setting aside a liber-
al amount for the cause of popular
education, and the maintenance of
the rural schools. You are quite well
aware, no doubt, that this policy is
strongly recommended by the Demo-
cratic part of Texas, especially set
forth In the F,1 Paso platform.
"While you are being called upon
to appropriate something in the
neighborhood of $1,000,000 for the
support of the normal schools, the A.
A* M. College and the State Univer-
sity, 1 am sure you will be equally as
willing to lie as liberal with those
outlying school districts, where the
people in their collective capacity are
not able to maintain their country
community schools.
Only to Itural Schools.
"I believe the people of Texns
would be gratified to see your body
appropriate a full million dollars, to
be expended In the next two fiscal
years In the support of the country
schools. In order that the money
would be sure to reach the rural
communities, care should be taken
that State aid thus extended should
not he made to schools In towne of
more thnn 1,000 Inhabitants, and
should be restricted to schools hav-
ing not over 200 scholastics. The
State Hoard of Kducatlon could ad-
minster and equitably distribute thia
fund in a way that most every coun-
try school In Texas would receive
some of the appropriation. I think
the amount should be restricted so(
that no one school should receive
over 11,000.
"I beg to advise that In accordance
with these general Ideas your special
committee, composed of Hon. J. M.
Wagstaff nnd Senator Cowell and the
State Superintendent Hon. w. F.
Doughty, to which gentlemen I am
much indebted, have zealously co-
operated with my department in the
preparation of a bill specially contnln
lug the Idens here expressed. T do
not hesitate tn say that T think the
1,111 I;- an evellent one, and I trust
that same will receive your favorable
consideration and official approval.
"While giving much attention to
the higher education of the few, let
us not neglect the proper education
of the rnanv. Hespectfullv submitted,
"JAMKS E. FF.nOITSOTtf,

INe FOR THE GIRLS
Special i 'oiTcspondciRe.
Denton, Texas, April 30.—In nor-
mal circles, much interest has been
felt In recent exhibitions of the work
of the Home Economics department.
In the display of spring millinery,
each gn( ruber of the Junior class of
this department hud on exhibition
two hats which were the result of her
own taste and skill. The co^t of
these artistic creations varied from
two to live dollars, most of them ap-
proaching In price the lower, rather
than the higher limit set by the
teacher of the class. These evi-
dences of how f:.r trained fingers can
make a small sum go not only have
been admired, but have been worn,
these girls having found it unneces-
sary tills season to call upon "dad"
for the usual allowance for spring
millinery. At this same exhibit, this
class also had a display of dainty
lingerie made by their own busy fing-
ers.
This work was followed In a few
weeks by an exhibition of neatly-
made nnd stylish house-dresses and
school dresses, most of which were of
washable materials, the cost of these
garments varying from 75
cents to $2.75. Before purchasing
and making up her materials, each
girl was given lessons on textiles, ln
which she learned how the different
mntrlnls are made, what are the
wearing-qualities of each, and how
they should be laundered. Tn her
study of the hygene of clothing, sho
learned the values of different mater-
ials as clothing during the various
seasons of the year.
The garments now in process of
manufacture by this class are the af-
ternoon and evening dresses which
will be worn during the approaching
Commencement. None of these is to
cost more than seven dollars.
The sophomore class, who are tho
beginners in this line of work, nnd
most of whom were at first totally
without the scientific principles un-
previous Instruction In the dress-
maker's art, have, In a few months,
learned to draught patterns and to
cut garments made by their own pat-
erns. They have also been taught to
cut by bought patterns, and have
learned to make under-ware, first by
hand, nnd then by use of the sewing
machine.
Of Interest alio was the work of
the girls of the seventh and eighth
grades of the Normal Training
school, most of whom are under
fourteen years of age. This exhibit
consisted chiefly of towels for use of
the Home Economics Department,
marked In outline stitch in large let.
ters, N. T. S. N., and also of linen and
canvas hook-covers, decorated in
cross-stitch, and nently marked with
the mnker's Initial.
In the conking laboratory, both the
scientific and the practical sides of
food preparation have been learned.
Not only have these future teachers
and house.keepers st lulled the
and all scientific principles tin-
derlylny all processes of cooking, but.
they have given much nttentlon to
tlie problem of how to buy food-mn-
terlals fhe eternal problem of get-
ting the greatest food value possible
for each dollar expended. That
these girls can put Into practice this
knowledge, hns been evidenced, in
the serving at a moderate cost, of a
number of elaborate luncheons nnd
'nners, at which the faculty or var-
ious distinguished visitors weru In-
vlted guests.
Girl* of this department will have
next year, an opportunity afforded
by only one other school in Twxas—
that of doing practlee tenching In
Home Economics—In the clnsse* of
the Normal Trnlnlng School.
Tho Normal summer course in
Home Economics given special ntten-
tlnn to the principles of cookery ns
thev can he taught In rural schools
with such equipment ns anv Ingent.
otis teacher enn supply, Tn these
classes the girl* are nlso given prac-
tice In the art of canning fruit and
vegetables, and trained to nhl the
country girl with her work in the
canning tlub*..
