MEMBER OF BOARD
OF REGENTS DEAD
Governor Dan Moody was notified
Saturday of the death of Steve A.
Lillard, member of the board of re
gents of this institution. Lillard’s
death was due to internal injuries re
ceived in an automobile accident some
six weeks ago. Lillard’s companion
was instantly killed, but after the ac
cident Mr. Lillard was able to return
to work. Last week the injuries began
to have serious effect and he was
taken from his home at Rangei* to
a Dallas hospital for an operation.
His death occurred in the hospital.
Mr. Lillard was a graduate of A.
and M. College, and was a member of
the football squad during his enroll
ment here. He also attended Texas
University for a while. He served in '
the World War, holding the rank of
captain.
At the time of his death he was a
prominent financier and leading ban
ker of Ranger and a member of our
board of directors.

LISHES LOAN FUND
At a recent meeting of the Daugh
ters of the American Revolution, it
was decided to provide a student loan
fund to aid some worthy boy to at
tend A. and M. College. About sixty
dollars was subscribed at the meeting,
which has been turned over to Presi
dent Walton. The chapter plans to
raise this total to several hundred
dollars in the next few years.

Saving Lives and Sparing Lives
in Modern Hospitals
rumCAL SCIENCE not only aims
l\/i to save lives, but to institute
JL V JaL economies in hospital operation
whereby lives are spared for more vital
work than running an elevator.
Nothing could be more ghastly than to
have a patient, on his way to the operating
room, stuck in an elevator between floors.
Modern hospital authorities are particular
in selecting elevator equipment of the
safest and most trustworthy manufacture.
The latest development of Otis
Collective Automatic Control permits
of the use of automatic push button ele
vators in the highest class and size of
hospitals, where heretofore the auto
matic type was limited to low buildings
Collective Control is so arranged that
the elevator automatically answers all the
calls in the direction in which it is travel
ing, and does not require any operator.
It also stops on any trip at all floors for
which a button in the car has been pressed,
the older system of control necessitating
the elevator answering only one call at
a time.
It is significant that the Medical Build
ings of the University of Chicago, pic
tured above, as well as the St. Luke’s
Hospitals in Chicago and Cleveland are
installing Otis Collective Control Push
Button Elevators, representing the last
word in hospital elevator operation.

COMPANY
Offices in all Principal Cities of the World
There are several hundred of the
finest boys of the state working their
way through A. and M. Most of these
beys have borrowed the money neces
sary for registration from the college,
some individual, or one of the loan
funds established by some organiza
tion, and are paying these notes by
working during their spare time.
Many are not successful in obtaining
loans, and are forced to delay their
entrance to college, having to work a
year to save enough to attend the
next session.
It has always been the purpose of
the D. A. R. organization to aid the
education of the Unfortunate, con
tributing to many scholarships and
student loan funds, beside maintain
ing their own institutions. The Bryan
chapter has recognized the need at
A. and M. and has given this need
precedence over their other consider
ations. The students appreciate this
help offered by the Bryan people,
and hope to prove worthy of this, as
well as all the other courtesies they
have offered.
SPAIN
How like a dream Dolores idly sits
Upon her door step, smoking her
cigar.
Her dilatory husband prates—and
spits
Emphatically. Her naked children are
A bit too old for sunburn, and a bit
Too brown. Her friends are all as
fat again
As - she. Her husband’s friends are
little men.
Dolores smokes, and muses over it.
