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.

It is suggested that a |
rayment of ten per cent be allowed |
on stock, a payment of eight per cent |
be allowed on contracts to build, and
a payment of seven per cent be al- |
lowed on corporation notes.
(2) Greater facilitation of building
in that the purchase of contracts to |
build would encourage expectation to
build. Added to this fact should be
noted the fact that a contract to build

The only disadvantage of this plan
seems to be greater danger of bank-
ruptcy proceedings. :
2. Plans for location of the project.
I. On the campus.
(1) Under the sufferance of the
heard of directors of the college, po-
cession and property rights in the
houses to be protected oy imsurance.
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. (This may be offset by in-
surance.) |
(b) The working cut of the project |

build but who wish to have a fund
accumulating for building purposes
These contracts could be paid for by
the persons desiring to build, on the
installment plan, and when the pay-
mants plus interest accumulations |
rose to the amounts of the initial
Fayments on the houses the company
would proceed to construct the hous-
es for them, taking their notes for!
the remaining expenditures neces-
sary as in (1). (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.
The advantages of this plan are:
(1) Ready accumulation of funds
—at more ready accumulation
cwing to the inducement offered to |
those who wish to build, to start a|
savings account in any amount.
(2) The possibility of lower inter-
as
least
\
| the board of directors of the college.
(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.
The advantages of this plan are:
(2) No question as to ownership of
the land.
