As ‘the tree exists for its fruit, so a man for his work.— ~ Emerson. through the plant by W. M. Cab- aniss, superintendent, and M. A. Swazy, chief chemist. Mr. Cabaniss _ was a graduate of the E. E. course of A. and M. in 1912. ~The next stop was at the refinery of the Crown Oil and Refinery Co. ~ E. Fagan, chief engineer, showed the ‘party through and explained the var- ious processes in the refining of crude petroleum. On account of this plant having been established only a year ago, and much of their construction work still being in pro- gress, we were able to get a good idea of the construction. The last place visited on the sec- ond day was the San Jacinto battle- ground, a beautiful spot and one sacred to every Texan. From there the party returned to Houston. Ey Friday The party caught the 8:00 a. m. interurban for Galveston Friday morning and were met at Virginia Point by H. F. Jonas, an “old-time” (1888) C. E. graduate of A. and M. who is supervising engineer on the ~ Galveston Causeway. They walked along the causeway while Mr. Jonas explanied the various steps in the construction from the making of the concrete piles to the carborundum finishing of the balustrade. The thrill of the morning consisted of a ride on the end of the vertical swing bridge. From this point they were taken in cars over the City of Galveston. Several peints of inter- est were visited in the forenoon, in- cluding the wharves, the plant of the Texas Carnegie Steel Association, and the construction of a new sul- phur loading plant. At one o’clock the party were the guests at a fish and oyster dinner given under the direction of an en- tertainment committee composed of z Mayor H. O. Sappington; R. M. ps Sias, county engineer; H. F. Jonas, engineer in charge of the work on the causeway; C. A. Holt, city engi-| neer; J. K. Chesboro, representing | the Galveston Commercial Associa- tion, and M. C. St. John, Arthur Giggs, Dr. J. A. Herschel and James A. Boddecker representing the Young Men’s Progressive League. In the afternoon they were taken for a ride along the new section of the sea wall being built by the city of Galveston in connection with the Government. The inspection cover- ed the construction in all stages of completion. The next visit was paid to the .plants of the Tex-Mex Oil Co., and of the Gulf Refining Co. At the ~~ Tex-Mex Co.’s plant piles were being RTT ENROLLMENT AT A. AND M. COLLEGE UP TO NOON YESTERDAY 1804 driven for tank foundation and the engineer, Mr. Willetts explained many details of construction. The party was then driven to the Hotel Galvez where the formal part of the trip ended. Albert L. Randall in speaking of the trip said, “We cannot speak toc highly of the courteous and gener- ous treatment received at the hands of the engineers and others of both Houston and Galveston. Such treat- ment as commends the individuals as gentlemen of the highest type and citizens of progressive munici- palities. BAYLOR BELTON GIRLS WILL BE HERE TONIGHT Thirty Five Young Girls Representing | Belton’s ,Prettiest and Most Tal- ented are Coming. Sete etoetostoetectestostecty. The Baylor-Belton Choral Club] composed of thirty-five attractive and talented young girls will appear in| Guion Hall tonight under the aus- pices of the Battalion. In the past this has proven one of | the most popular entertainments of the college vear and reports froin all who have seen and heard the club this season state that this appearance will surpass all others. They will have the music and songs | that appeal to tha A. and M. audience, | and in addition T. E. Sanderford of Belton has written that the Choral Club for this season has Lhe prettiest girls ever (which is saving a great deal) and that they will offer more of the popular songs than ever be- fore. It has also been learred that the young ladies have been looking forward with the greatest expecta- tion to a memorable evening here, singing to a vast audience of A. and M. cadets and intend to provoke an appreciation of their charm and tal- | ent. The Club is making ‘an extended tour of East and South Texas. Com-| ing from Corsicana, the Club spends one evening with us and proceeds to Houston for the next entertainment. They appeared in Waco, April 8,| the following comment was clipped | from the Waco News Tribune: | “A crowded audience composed | | principally of university students and friends of the Belton institution were present to greet the girls who from | their renditions displayed skilled | | training and tutorship. The club in | |its performance here lived up to its| reputation established in former years | | and even surpassed in excellence the | | high standard it has before estab-| lished. It was by far the best pro- | | gram ever rendered by the Belton girls in this city. “The program was varied ranging from light to heavy music and the clever encores were greeted with much applause. The old time southern clothes, at melodies sung by twelve of the girls dressed in old southern costumes de- serves special mention. “Miss Askin, the director deser- ves much credit for the excellent club she has developed and only such per- sons who are eminent musicians could turn out such high class artists. “In all the renditions the club had as its accompanist Miss Ruth Burr of Houston, who is also an able mu- | sician. The Club consists of twenty-eight | girls and four soloists. The soloists are Misses Marion Barton, mezzo-so- prano; Doris Goodrich Jones, violin- ist; Mabel McCall, pianist; and Miss La Verna E. Askin, contralto. Miss Askin is from Chicago and has studied under George Holt, who 1s the director of the voice department of the Columbia School of Music, and is president of the Chicago Art Association. She was a pupil of Herman De’ Vries, grand opera coach, of that city. Miss Burr of Houston is the able accompanist for the club.
