The delegates who returned from A. & M. College are one in their state ments that they were handsomely trated by the cadets.

The meeting of the State Y. M. C. A. delegates at College Station was a good thing for the University. It was a good thing for A. & M. The fact is, we believe that the oftener the two institutions have a chance to get together as guest and host the sooner they will come to a solid un derstanding. If we treat A. & M. always in the same spirit that they treated our Y. M. C. A. boys, A. & M. will never have any reason to complain of the Uni versity. Let’s get together. — Daily Texan.
