STATE SCHOOL
BOARD MAI )
Meeting Next Monday Will
Decide Date of Dissolv
ing Present Body
By RAYMOND BROOKS
AUSTIN, Aug. 7—The state board
of education will meet next Mon
day, uncertain whether this will be
its last session in the history of
Texas.
Members are uncertain whether
the new law creating a nine-mem
ber board of education goes itno
eifect Aug. 25, as provided by its
terms, or Oct. 2, 90 days after ad
journment of tin session. Appar
ently there is a difference of opin
ion among the state officials wnc
compose the present ex-officio
board, and Gov. Moody, it was ex
pected, will Monday announce his
own conclusions whether the old
ex-officio board will then bow it
self out of existence.
The old board is composed of the
governor, secretary of .-tate, comp
troller, and state superintendent of
public instruction.
Meantime, the new board is in
complete, with the announcement
of Mrs. Minnie Fisher Cunningham
of New Waverly, to Gov. I xidy
that she will be unable to serve
upon it.
Efforts are being made to have
Gov. Moody select another wom
an for her place. He appointed
two women on the board. Mrs.
Cur '.ingham and Mrs. Noyes D
Smith of Austin. In its original
make-up. Women are urging that
he name another of their sex to
Mrs. Cunningham s place, and have
reminded him that the University
of Texas board of regents is now
without a tfoman member for the
first time in eight years.
The uncertain.y about when the
new board takes charge of educa
tional affairs is over the question of
Its being an • emergency" or a 90
day bill. Emergency bills reqnre
not only the inclusion of an emerg
ency clause, but the passage of the
measure in both houses by roll-ccil
votes of two thirds, and inclusion in
the record accompanying the 1.11s
a showing of such vote.

GODDESS OP GAB
By Beatrice Burton, /^y

(Continued From Page Six)
they drove up beside him. "Couldn’t
be a better place for a picnic."
They left the two cars beside the
road, and walked through the tall
timothy, carrying their steamer rug
and their lunch boxes and their
batning suits with them.
“Let's make a fire for the coffee
1 —and we can have our swim while
we re waiting lor it to boil," said
Billie, when they had settled their
things under the water oak trees
beside the clear little pool that was
as round as a mirror. "You boys
go and find a place to put on your
suits, and Chat and I will make a
dressing room out of the steamer
blanket."
They hung it over the lowest
branches of one of the trees and.
using it for a tent, they got into
their suits.
Before the two men had come
back, ready for their swim, Billie
was in the pool—darting about, her
legs and arms shining silver white
under the film of clear, sunny
water.
“Oh, but it’s love-lee-ee—" she
called breathlessly to the other
three, when ♦hey came to the edge
to watch her. “Come along. Don't
you wish we had a ball? We could
play water polo—"
She dived and swam under the
water to the opposite bank, where
she clung to the tail grass, looking
over lur bare shoulder at the oth
ers. She was as lovely as a water
nymph, with her lashes fringing
her eyes with wet black points, and
the color brilliant in her cheeks and
Up?..
"One of the girls down at the of
fice told me she uses make-up,"
Dave Jordan said to Chatty. "Now
why do girls talk about each other
that way? Anybody can see that
all her color is her own.”
Chatty interrupted him by laying
one of her hands on his arm. "I
told you that.” she answered, and
her face was fiery red. "Don't you
remember? The day you told me
I was made up because I had pink
powder on my face? But she docs
make up—but not very much. And
I'm just as sorry and ashamed as
I can be because I told you that—'
She was, too . . . When she was
happy, as she was now, she had
no desire to say cruel and catty
things. There was no bitterness in
her now. no jealousy of other girls
because they managed to have more
good times than she had.
And she WAS happy now, with
her hand in Dave Jordan's hand,
slipping down the long grass and
the moss that covered the slope of
the bank around the pool—letting
herself down into his arms when
he stood below her in the water.
She caught her breath as he held
her. pressing her close to him.
Before he let her go he kissed her
—just once—and so quickly that
neither Billie nor George Mayhew
saw him do it. Then they swam
out into the water together.
"I'm happy — happy — happy.”
thought Chatty. "I'm alive at last!"
She felt as if she had been in
a cocoon all her twenty years, and
that suddenly she had grown wings
and flown out of it into the sun
shine and the fields of flowers.
“I never would have known Dave
well like this,” she figured, "if U
hadn’t been for Billie and that
party of hers last Sunday." And
right then and there she solemnly
promised herself that she would
never say a horrid thing about Bil
lie again— never do an unkind
thing to her. She would forget
that she knew that Billie was mar
ried and ‘running around" with
George Mayhew. She would never
speak of it to a living soul. Never,
never, never!
• • •
It was dusk by thv time they had
had their lunch, cleared things
aw ry, and had another swim In tne
warm green-blue water of the little
pool.
A star came out in the sky like
a five-petaled flower when they
were crossing the timothy field to
me road.
"Star bright—star light,
First star out tonight—
I wish I may, I wish I might
Have the wish I wish tonight—”
sang Chatty, swinging the lunch
basket she was carrying in time to
the rhythm of the nurserj song.
"What's your wish"” Dave Jor
dan asked her, and instead of an
swering, she just laughed at him
through the Hue haze of the twi
light.
She wasn’t sure, herself, what he;
wish was . . . She only prayed that
somehow or other she would always
be neer him. That there would be
days like this for two of them—
and that sometimes he would hold
her close to him, as he had that
day, while he kissed her and his
hands, pressing down upon ncr
shoulders, trembled a little.
As they came out upon the broad
white ribbon of highroad a great
open car swept past them. Chatty
caught just a flying glimpse of it
and of a man and girl who were
sitting in it. Then it was gone
around a turn in the road leaving
a cloud of dust behind it like a
small sandstorm.
"They certainly were making
time, weren't they?” she asked Dave
Jordan, who was just behind her,
sail holding the field gate open.
He did not answer, and she
swung around to look at him. He
had not heard her. and he was star
ing down the turnpike in the di
rection that the great, roaring car
had taken.
Some woman instinct told Chatty
that he had known those two peo
ple in the car. And womanlike,
she began to "put two and two to
gether.”
"Dave,” she said, when the Pririj
of America was on its w-ay back
to town, "that girl in the car that
was going so last—you knew her,
didn't you?”
He nodded without a word. He
had been very quiet since the car
had spun past them.
"Was she—was she the girl who
said she wouldn’t marry a man un
less he was making ten thousand
a year? The girl you told me aboui
this morning?”
Once more he nodded.
"She was the girl I saw you buy
ing flowers for on Easter Saturday,
I'll bet, too!” said Chatty.
But this time he did not answer
And when he said good night to
her at her door a half hour later
he did not kiss her, although she
had been hoping that he would all
the way home. He shook hands
with her almost as if she had been
a pretty girl to whom he had been
making love all day long.
"Good night. See you tomorrow,”
he said shortly, and went.
• • »
The next noon, when Chatty
started out to lunch she met Agnts
Herford, who was waiting In the
hall beside the elevators.
"If you're going to lunch, why
don't you come along with me?”
she asked Chatty. "I don't like to
eat alone. I had an engagement
to lunch with a man I know, but
at the last-minute he telephoned
that he couldn't make it.”
"I’ll bet her ‘date’ was with
Dave!” thought Chatty instantly.
Like all girls in love, she was sure
that every- other girl in the world
was out after her man.”
“You have lunch pretty often
with David Jordan, don’t you?” sho
asked when they were out In the
sunny, crowded street.
' Sometimes,” Agnes answered,
and Chatty was sure that she saw
her flush.
Chatty prodded her again. "He's
just wild about some girl outside
the oLice.” she went on. "Some
girl with a lot of money—and she's
told him she'll marry him when
he's making ten thousand dollars
a year. Now. what do you think
of a gold-digger like that?”
This was not strictly the truth,

thing she often "dressed It up” a

TEXAS
That there has been a great
amount of “gay confusion" regard
ing the subject of companionate
marriage since his book of that title
was published is the contention of
Denver's noted Juvenile court Judge.
Ben B. Lindsey, and it was for that
reason that he consented to a fea
ture some of the more dramatic in
cidents detailed in the book as hav
ing come under his notice.
To help overcome this “gay con
fusion.” Judge Lindsey helped pre
pare the scenario and was on the
set during the filming of “Compan
ionate Marriage." the First National
picture coming to the Texas theater
Thursday. The story is said to be
highly dramatic, and dealing, as it
does, with a topic that is on the
tongues of the entire American na
tion, assures the film of ar large
and ready-made public. And it pre
sents Judge Lindsey's theory in its
true light.
Betty Bronson is featured as the
young gill, disillusioned about the
state of matrimony, who enters up
on a companionate marriage re
newed by the experience. Aleo B.
Francis is also featured as the kind
ly judge who advises her and her
lover to undertake the experiment.
Richard Walling is the lover.

KING SPONSORS
HUGE PRESERVE
Belgian Ruler Orders Congo
Sanctuary For Fauna
And Flora
WASHINGTON. Aug. 7.—
King Albert of the Belgians. In the
interest of scientific research, has
decreed that a large area be set
aside In Eelgian Congo for the pres
ervation of the fauna and flora of
Africa and for the scientific study
of rare species in their natural en
vironments.
Announcement of the establish
ment of the scientific preserve was
made through the Associated Press
today by Prince De Ligne. the Bel
gian ambassador at Washington, on
receipt of cable dispatches from
Brussels.
The sanctuary will be known as
the Albert National Park. It is sit
uated in the eastern part of the
Belgian Congo between Lake Kivu
and Lake Edward and comprises
approximately 800.000 acres. Ad
ministration will be in the hands of
a commission on which King Albert
has already appointed two Ameri
can scientists. Dr. John D. Merriam.
president of the Carnegie Institu
tion. and Di^ Henry Fairfield Os
born. president of the American
Museum of Natural History.
A decree by King Albert prohibits
under severe penalties the killing,
raptuie or molestation of any wild
animal within the area, including
those which are considered danger
ous. It is also prohibited to de
stroy or remove any tree or wild
plant or to change in any way the
aspect of the landscape. The sanc
tuary will be policed by Belgian co
lonial officers and no one will be
allowed to enter without a special
permit.
The site was selected by the late
Carl Akeley eminent naturalist and
explorer, who recommended that a
sanctuary for gorillas be establish
ed there for the preservation of
that rapidly disappearing species
King Albert, in adopting the idea,
enlarged upon It. and several Amer
ican scientific institutions are con
templating the sending of expedi
tions to lake advantage of the op
portunities thus afforded.

this matter was one entirely in the
hands of the president. The chier
executive has absolute control of
