We handle nothing but the BEST PHONE US YOUR ORDERS W. C. BOYETT THE CAMpos grocer j FISH MASON. The financial side of this “Bat” was no small item. Fish Mason started to work immediately after his election as business manager. He wrote about 175 letters to business men all over the United States, ask ing them for ads. He went to Bryan repeatedly and begged and pleaded with the Bryan merchants for ads. Each member of the class was as sessed 50c. But this was hard to col lect; but Mason was tireless in his efforts. He kept after the Bryan mer chants and he kept his collectors busy in the dormitories. His letters brought very poor results. The big business J. M.

JARVIS Room 7, Foster—Campus Agents houses would not advertise. “Times too hard.” Mason picked two able assistants, and after days of hard and arduous work, they have successfully steered this “Bat” through the straits of finance. They are to be highly com mended for their tireless efforts and their success in such a year as this. Advertisers are curtailing their ad vertisements throughout the State. And what ads were given were work ed hard for. Mason has succeeded, which is saying a great deal for a manager this year. FOR SALE—A baseball glove in good condition.

It’s a long way to Tip perary, but you don’t have to go far for crispettes. Herseys! Cigars! Chewing gum! Who’s hungry? Cris pettes like your mother used to make! They will neither tear, tarnish nor wear, and only two more left, boys. Whot wants the last ones? The ball game is bum, but these crispettes are mighty fine. Only seven more left! The more you eat the more you want. Get your crispettes right now! Strict ly an educational affair, boys—rec ommended by the Governor. Who’s hungry?” This is the “lingo” we hear every day from “Sky” Boettcher, the living wonder, the best salesman in Texas. “Sky” was very successful with Ma son in getting ads for the “Bat.” “Sky” is assistant business manager of the “Bat,” and he has certainly done his part. He should receive some credit for the financial success of the Battalion. Though Fish “Sky” is one of the busiest cadets on the campus he has time to help the “Fish Bat” immensely. For that, we thank him. FOUND — Sergeant Kenny has in his possession an intercollegiate track medal which was found on the campus. The owner will apply to him. Town Fish (in A.
