Official announcement came today
from Mabry Seay of Dallas, president
of the Texas Association of Local Fire
Insurance ogents, to J. Singer, a lo-
cal member of that organization, stat-
ing that the dates finally selected by
the executive committee for the asso-
ciation’s annual convention in Gal-
veston are Thursday and Friday, June
17 and 18. A previous tentative an-
nouncement of dates was to the effect
that the fire insurance men would
gather here probably on earlier dates
in June, but the advice received today
is final and official.
Mr. Singer immediately took the
matter up with the Galveston Commer-
cial association, with Grafton T. Aus-
tin, acting head of the local organi-
zation of fire insurance agents, and
with C. H. Dorsey, another local agent
who will be active in making plans for
entertaining this convention.
Mr. Seay wrote that the program, to
be prepared by the executive commit-
tee of which C. T. Smith, also of Dal-
las, is chairman, would if possible in-
clude a paper or address by a Galves-

Said to Be Wanted in Canada on Em-
bezzlement Charge.
On the allegation that he embezzled
several thousand dollars from the Bank
of Ontario, Canada, a white man, said
to have been a clerk in the Ontario
bank, was picked up in this city Satur-
day at 24th and Market streets, ac-
cording to City Detectives Henderson
and Williams, who made the arrest.
According to information furnished by
the local detectives, the man had been
during the past several weeks in Mo-
bile, Ala., Pensacola, Fla., New Or-
leans, La., and Port Arthur, Tex., and
had left behind him a trail of bad
checks involving perhaps a thousand
dollars.
Detective Henderson said this morn-
ing that the man was arrested on in-
foitmation from Houston. After the ap-
prehension he was turned over 1 Fred
Rexer, a detective from the Rice hotel
at Houston, who departed with the
prisoner. The man was to be retrun-
ed to Ontario.
PO THOSE who are not familiar with a modern Dry Cleaning Equipment, this cut will
prove interesting. The six storage tanks hold 1,440 gallons of naphtha. The naphtha is all
distilled and deodorized before using, which makes benzine of naphtha. The clothes are
then washed in benzine, which takes out all grease and dirt. This is as fine as any Dry Cleaning
Equipment in the entire United States, and is one of the few in Texas, and the only one in Gal-
veston. You can now realize why our work is so much superior to that of "would-be cleaners.”

According to an announcement made
this morning by W. A. James, principal
of the Ball high school, the Texas Uni-
versity entrance examination will be
given here today, tomorrow, Wednes-
day and Thursday, to those who wish
to take it. The Ball high school is af-
filiated with the Texas State Uni-
versity at Austin, and for this reason,
the examinations are held there. Mr.
James, who is in charge of the work,
stated this morning, that as yet, only
one person had signified their inten-
tion of taking the work, but others
who cared to do so, could arrange for
the examinations by notifying him to-
day.
The Agricultural and Mechanical col-
lege of Texas has placed in the hands
of Mr. James, to be awarded at his
discretion, a directors’ scholarship,
which is worth $20 to the pupil receiv-
ing it, and absolves the student to
whom it is awarded from payment of
the year’s fees at A. and M. school.
The student who is to receive the
scholarship will probably be named
within the next few weeks.
The Southwestern University of
Georgetown, Tex., is offering twa
scholarships this year, to which Ball
high school graduates are eligible,
upon meeting the scholastic require-
ments, and the approval of the au-
thorities. The Texas Christian college
at Fort Worth, is offering two scholar-
ships under exactly the same condi-
tions as the Southwestern University.
The University of Texas also will
give a Regents’ scholarship to the boy
and another to the girl, who make the
highest averages in their studies
throughout the senior year. This
scholarship is offered by the state uni-
versity each year and is a reward of
merit.

has been prepared by the executive
committee of the association, which
held a meeting recently with President
Crouch and Vice President Priddy pres-
ent, and copies of the official program

Secretary Dorsey advises that “in ar-
ranging this program the executive
committee was o.f the opinion that our
business session should be short, there-
by giving the members more time for
sight-seeing and pleasure, which is al-
ways at hand in Galveston.’’ Hotel
Galvez will be the convention head-
quarters. J. S. Fordtran of Galveston
is chairman of the entertainment com-
mittee.
Activity during the coming conven-
tion in a movement for the passage of
a new bill by the state' legislature for
the regulation of telphone companies is
forecast by advance information.
Secretary Dorsey advised that the
arbitration committee was to hold a
“clean-up” meeting at Fort Worth some
time before the convention here. Cop-
ies of arbitration decisions were for-
warded to Galveston members.
The Texas retail coal dealers, who
meet somewhat in conjunction with the
grain men, are to convene
also on Wednesday, May 26, for their
annual con vention.
