C. A. Workers of National Fame Visited A. & M. The local organization of the Y. M. C. A. has been most fortunate in hav ing with them during the past week two of the most noted workers in the field, namely, Dr. Weatherford and “Ted” Mercer. Bath men are deeply interested in the college man and his problems, and they leave no stone un turned to help him meet and face the tasks that daily confront him. They* j devote their lives to the study of con- | ditions in colleges and know how to i attack and fight against any obstacle that may be confronted. Each of these men is full of enthusi- | asm and they bring a message to the | men of the A. & M. College that if | heeded will mean much toward the civic righteousness of the institution. Coming here Tuesday evening from the State Y. M. C. A. Convention at Austin, Dr. Weatherford gave an in teresting talk before a large gathering of cadets in the chapel at 7:15 Tuesday evening. His subject, was “The. Col lege Problem,” and he gave some very wholesome advice against profanity, vulgarity and personal impurities as exist in almost all colleges. Mr. Mercer made a powerful appeal to the men Wednesday afternoon, en treating them to lire the life of true nobility of character and pointing out the weaknesses and th® strongholds of the present day college life in a very vivid manner. Classes were suspended in order that the cadets might have the opportunity of hearing such a fa mous worker as Mr. Mercer. Quite a number availed themselves of the opportunity.
