ARE THEY WAITING?
Enterprise has been asked a
or two why the various inter-
parties are waiting for the
convening of Congress before
begin work on the appropria-
that is, so badly needed for the
iths of the Ñeches and Sabine
rs and for which comparative
is so small when the end at-
ts so large. Beaumont today
furnishing more than half
export products passing
#L Port Arthur and Sabine
This, of course, includes the
going from Spindle Top, which
" find a natural outlet from the
river should that stream be
ced in position to receive sea-
g vessels. Then comes the
going out. This is furnish-
principally from Beaumont and
mge and there would be no need
any rail haul at all with the add-
water depth. But while We in
Beaumont and Orange know all
.jj^towe things it seems that they do
not know them in Washington, and
when the effort is really made to in-
form them someone bobs up and
calls us a liar or words to that ef-
fect. We áre then lacking the proof
and the Enterprise niust admit that
it knows not why those who are so
vitally interested in the-matter are
apparently so idle. The only way
to account for it is that what is ev-
« erybody's business is nobody's bus-
iness and each business man is wait-
ing for tftfe other to act. What we '
^ really need here is men like those mi
composing the Gulf Refining "com-
pany arid : Guffey . Petroleum
company. The Gulf company re-
cently wrote the Beaumont and
Sour Lake electric railway people
that the moment the electric- line is
completed to their city (Port Ar-
thur) they will remit a bonus check
for $2,500. They know a good
thing when they see it. If the Enter-
prise be not mistaken it is this same
company also that agreed to pay
$5000 toward defraying the lob-
, bying expense for the deep water
canal to the mouths of the Neches
and Sabine rivers,, provided others
equally as highly interested would
do the same thing. The others nev-
er did it. Thi& last sentence
¡part of the answér to the caption of
ifhis article. They never did it.—
ont Enterprise.
Volumes could be written upon
this vexing problem. "Why Are
They Waiting?" but the fact is that
the ground has been so frequently
and thoroughly gone over that noth-
else remains to be said. To us it is
tiresome and fruitless threshing over
old ground—a ceaseless reiteration
to no apparent purpose.
It behooves us of Orange
Beaumont to take heart of hope,
ing in mind that what to us
s stale, flat and unprofitable,
goes to the Congress as a story ever
fresh; and we must not take it for
granted that the ancient and time'
of convincing

school will opsn
September 14th. The patento are re-
quested to have every child In the dis-
trict present on the first day. This la
of great necessity In cyder that each
pupil may be properly enrolled end
classified. Parents are invited in order
that they may more fully understand
the rules and regulations of the school.
For the benefit of parents, as well as
pupils, a few statements at tüe rutes
and regulatlonsraay be needful.
1. Pupils are required to be at the
school not earlier than fifteen minutes
after eight and not later than ten min-
utes to nine.
. 2. Each pupil will be required to
furnish his own bookB and stationery,
pupils who faill to do this-may be sent
home until they obtain same.
3. Pupils, when absent from ahy
cause; are requested, upon their re-
turn to school, to bring a written ex-
cuse '•from one of their parents stating
cause of their absence. This is need-,
ful to prevent trüancy. Pupils who fail
to comply with this request will be
sent home for the excuse upon Becond
failure to bring same.
4. There will be a tuition fee of One
dollar per month for all pupilB under
scholastic age, and one dollar and fifty
cents per month for all pupils over
scholastic age. Said tuition is payable
tñ ad vanee each month to the Principal
of the school, who wiir'givé á receipt
for same entitling: the pupil to one
month's schooling, absent days not ex-
cluded, There will be no distinction of
persons in this respect.
G. Parents are urged to keep their
children In school regularly, as no
child can do any good in school unless
it attend regularly. The. lessons be-
come too difficult, and, as a conse-
quence, children become discouraged
In their studies.
We aspecially ask the co-operation
of parents with the teachers in their
work; because It is very needful for
both pupils and teachers. Parents can
be of great aid to their children by en-
couraging them, in their studies and
school duties, and speaking well of the
teachers in the presence of the child-
ren. While, in other respects, a child
ay simply be rutned in ltB school
work by Its own parents. We are

Texas Tobacco in South Africa.
The wonderful tobacco fields of
Eeast Texas have attracted Natlrinal
attention, but, due to the far reaching
advertising methods employed by the
Southern Paalflc, the fame of the new
tobacco fields.of the great Lone Star
State has reached around the globe.
As a striking example of effective ad-
vertising. General Passenger Agent
T. J. Anderson of the Southern Pacific
has Just received a letter from Mr.
George M. Odium, special agent of the
Rhodesia Department of Agriculture,
Salisbury, South Africa, who requested
Mr. Anderson to furnish him with
full Information and photos of the
East Texas tobacco fields, all of which
will be published in the Agricultural
Journal of Rhodesia. South Africa. It
is needless ta say that the information
and photos were promptly dispatched
across the waters to the Dark Con-
tinent.
