The first name that comes to my
mind of the boys who have made
physicians, is Dr. Frankie Long, Dr.
Worsham, Dr. Thomason of Dallas,
Dr. Joe Becton, Dr. Addy, Dr. Ju-
nell, and quite a number of others,
all of whom are splendid men, and
distinguished for their professional
skill and success in the science of

man and lawyer that holds on with
the tenacity of a British hull dog—-
a good man, a good lawyer, who has
and merits tile respect of the entire
bar of his own home city. Then
there's Judge Ashley Dial; his ju-
dicial mind, and forensic eloquence
make him a focman worthy of the
steel of his antagonist, whoever he
may be, or wrom whencesoever he
may come. He lias state wide prac-
tice. There is T. J. Ramey, a mem-
ber of the law firm of Ramey and
Davidson. These men are lawyers
by instinct, education, and profession
who neither ask or gives quarter in
management of a case. They are
fine men personally, cafe and con-
servative in all their professional re-
lations, Judge Homer L. Pharr, now
of the windy west, ,was also a pupil.
He is district Judge now out at Lub-
bock. He is able and impartial in his
rulings ,discriminating in judgement,
clean, clear cut and correct in his de-
cisions.

one of my preacher boys. He is a fine
gospel preacher, and deservedly pop-

and wears well wherever he goes.

gy. He is a successful preacher, do-

loved and respected by all who know
him.
He is a strong preacher with a
great message, and delivers it with
the ease and grace of a finished ora

| affairs of men, and his Bible is the
jlamp that illuminates his pathway and
is the power of God in the salvation
of men. W. L. Aikini already noted
for his burning eloquence, his fearless
denunciation of sin, his unswerving
devotion to duty. He is very popular
with his people. He weilds a blade
of true Damascus steel, tempered of
love and justice and mercy, showing
himself approved unto God, a work-
man that needeth not to be ashamed,
rightly dividing the word of truth.
Teachers -Too many to mention by
name—span forbids. But I can say
truthfully that they are among the
best wherever they may be. They
are earnest, dilligent and capable,
fully abreast with the times, reading
educational literature, school maga-
zines and journals, attending sum-
mer schools and institutes, preparing
themselves that they may be more
efficient and thut their efficiency
may, in some measure, be commen-
surate with the duties and responsi-
bilities of their great office. 'I'hat is

of their reward. The free school

Electricity Inis certainly been a
boon to the industry of lamp mak-
ing. The problem of constructing a
delicate and filmy shade that would
not catch fire from the lighy was a
very real one ill the days ot gas
lighting, and earlier still, in the
days of kerosene lamps.
We have not gotten entirely away
from kerosene lamps. They still
serve their useful purpose, where
electricity is not available, and per-
versely enough, are being revived
and electrified for use in the most
modern of homes.
Old gin- bases and flower paint- f
ed bowls on their bronze standards
are being hunted out and shades to j
fit them are being studied, so that [
a Victorian interior may be correct
in every detail.
Old Bottles for Lamps.
The vogue for collecting old bot-
tles of all sizes and shapes has eaus
ed another phase of our lamp-mak-
ing. A jolly, fat bottle of clear col- i
ored glass, is filled with water, a I
proper top to fit it is added and
then it is crowned with a pleated j
shade tied with cord or ribbon.
Made in this fashion was a per- '
feet beauty of a lamp. The bottle j
was a blue the color one sees on a ;
flesh plum. The pleated shade wa.-
of it paler blue with a darker band
of the same color, On examination
it wa- discovered that the shade wits

tected the electric hull).
Other old types of lighting that
are being revived are sconces and
lanterns. The sconces are made of
copper and pewter, anil reflectors of
shiny tin or mirrors, are sometimes
a feature of these.
Lanterns of every kind are being
called forth from attics and carriage
houses. Carriage lanterns are elec-
trified for porches, hanging lan-
terns of old type- are suspended in-
doors and out, arid ships’ lanterns
are particular trea-urers. In a hoy’s

Polished steel is used for the
standards of bridge lamps. Parch-
ment shades usually complete these,
the shade selgcLed for its design
with a view to the period of the
room. Prints art* very good on parch-
ment shades. But an 1.H20 print
should not go in a Victorian room,
nor one from Godey's Ladies' Book
in a Colonial room.
Pottery bases with gay colorful
designs from Italy, Fiance and
Czecho-Slovakia wear parchment

artists copy the designs of the hasp

•In pa/icfr? papers are pleated for
some shades. Old papers, with (ini’
