The composed, Rudolf Friml is so well know that it does not take any words to introduce him. May Valentine’s chorus is com posed of the highest class of talent ed girls from our American colleges and universities. She has about three graduates from the Kidd-Key College at Sherman, and one from the South ern Methodist University. There are eighteen girls in this chorus. May Valentine visited A. and M. College two years ago. In a recent letter she writes: “I know the A. and M. boys, and I know what they want. I have the attraction which will certainly please each student.” Viola Kaufman is the charming Geraldine in this gem of the music world. She has an entrancing beauty that has become no less than a sen sation—she is nineteen and not in love. lone Wilbur, the prima dona of the Valentine presentation of The Firefly is the same demure and fas cinating little person that was heard in the roll of MITZI in BLOSSOM TIME. HELP THE'IGNORANT. A poor, ignorant “Liberal Arts Student,” having little mathematics, less Physics, and no Thermo Dyna mics, would like for some one of his more intellectual brother Aggies to solve the following problem for him; given, one hundred pound body with a blood temperature of 98 de grees Farenheit, a room twenty by twenty by twelve, a divan, and a houndred-pound block of ice with a six foot space between it and the body: What will be the melting ef fect of said body over a two-hour period ? Any solution of this problem that is anywhere near correct will be. mailed forthwith to the American Home Preservatism Society where it will be used as propaganda against Frigid Airs. Toper: Pardon me, Sarge, but where you from ? Gendarme: Marseilles, monsieur. - Topper: Mai'seilles! Well, well, ’sa shmall worl’ affter all, ishn’t it ? Gendarme: Ah, monsieur is from Marseilles ? Toper: No, I’m just from Kal’ma- zoo, but ’sa shmall worl’ jus’ za shame. —Ex. % "^Tornado has blown down our Mill I want to borrow <J£ j When me terrible tor nado swept across the midwest back in 1896, it left Purina Mills a heap of ruins. Young Will Danforth had just been down to his boyhood home getting some more or ders from his farmer friends for his new mixed feed for live stock and poultry. And now the little pi oneer mill was wiped out—no tornado insur ance, no money to rebuild, no security to offer the banker. But there was one banker in St. Louis who had great faith in the idea of properly balanced feeds. He t’ad seenhowthe feed ers who tried Purina were coming back for more. So — without security—he loaned Mr. Danforth the money to re build Purina Mills. Purina is proud of the fact the banker had the confidence which built back that little mill. Purina is proud of the fact that each year more and more farmers had confidence —a coniidence that has made possible the stretching of the one little mill into the 18 big mills of today. For thirty-four years Purina has kept faith with the farmer. And Purina is still building confidence — by building more profitable live stock and noiihirv PURINA MILLS 959 Gratiot Street, St. Louis, Mo.
