MARTIN ['ublicity Secretary The attention of the student body is called to the destructive practice of fence climbing engaged in by many students of the college. The! fences on the college farms and col- lege properties are put there at great expense and it: is desired to | keep them serviceable and in as good an appearance as possible. A num- | ber of new and valuable fences have | been destroyed during the past year | by students climbing them instead of using gates. Whenever it is neces- | sary to enter fields or farms gates, are provided at proper places. Fence climbing is a very undesir- able practice and should be discour-| aged at all times. The college. au-! thorities ask the cooperation of the stvaent body in this matter.

The advantages of this plan are: (a) Speediness of construction. (b) Saving of money in cost of land {¢) Ready availability of colleze | utilities. (d) No question as to the authority | of the board. The disadvantages of this plan are: (a) Difficulty of raising: the neces- | sary funds owing to uncertainty of | continuous title to location of the houses.

(3) By loans to the corporation from those who do not care to enter the building project, vet who desire to help it along either for patriotic reasons or for purposes of investment. These loans would be secured by corporation notes based on individual notes turned over to the corporation by those who were having houses built who had not paid out. The amount of these loans could not under the Texas laws, ex- teed the amount of the capital stock of the corporation. Needless to say, aracunts lent to the corporation ! could at any proper time, if they equaled the initia] payments, be sur- rendered those payments on houses.

(2) Request the board of directors | of the college to set aside a certain | section of land for demonstration in landscape and architectural art and business principles. On this plot it would seem that there could be de- velored a home building project as one of several demonstra- tions. The advantages of this plan are: (2) Speediness of development of the project. (b) Unquestionable ownership possible of | the property as provided for in the projects. (¢) Inducement to exercise the oreatest care in making the project a success. (d) Cheapness with which the pro- ject could be financed. (e) Such a project would boost the college. The disadvantages of this plan are: (a) The distrust which some peo- | ple may have in the project and re- saliing unwillingness to invest. (b) Possible interference -by the board with the policies of those in charge of the developraent of the projects. | ) Wait for the action of the leg- | ire in granting the board of di- | re to= of the college specific power to cell or lease the college lands.
