High quality stands out doubly eon spicious when put along side of 66 elieap tailoring—and the price doesn’t play such an important part either. If You’ve Worn a once you can easily pick them out in the street. By the same old method of deduction you can pick the real style, fit and quality by the surrounding quality. Twenty dollars is, most assuredly, a reasonable price for such dependable merchandise. Our tailored-to-your measure Suits at $20 - $25 - $30 are top-notchers in the clothing world. Under these prices real value cannot exist.

Horses—1st, Ray; Myers and Me- Knight (tied). The first four men in the Dairy Husbandry contest were Regen- brecht, Derrick, Carnahan, and Smith. The 28 men who made the trip with Coach F. # W. Bell were: McKnight, Myers, Phillips, Warren, Smith, Ray, Weir, Derrick, Wilson, Carnahan, Smilie, Regenbrecht, Chappelle, Abi- cht, Givens, Lawrence, Rees, Robert son, Glenn, Livingston, Dietert, Grie- senbeck, Miley Bloodworth, Worm- ser, Flack, Davis. The personnel of the Chicago In ternational Stock Judging Team will probably be announced the latter part of this week. To make this team is one of the greatest attain ments an animal husbandry student can make while in college, and the announcement of the five principals and the alternate is being awaited with great interest. The Dallas trip is always preliminary to the selection of the Chicago team, and the out come of the contests at the Fair has a great deal to do with the selec tion. The six who are selected will leave for Chicago about November 20. The inner side of every cloud Is bright and shining. Turn therefore, your clouds about, And always wear them inside out, To show the silver lining. COLONEL CRANE TO SELECT QUOTA FOR CAMP (Continued from page 1) Christmas without their diplomas, will be enabled to graduate in April. In the event of the failure of this move, practically every Senior in this college who is of age will leave in January. Three fourths of the class is subject to draft, and most of this number will be called for examina tion when the next increment is call ed for. This will mean that either they will enter the training camp at Waco or be conscripted. In either event they would fail to graduate. As a result, there is much anxiety over the outcome of the attempt by the college presidents to get the men exempted until April. MAY NOT MAKE WACO AND HOUSTON TRIPS. Persistent rumors, which cannot either be confirmed or denied, are floating round the campus to the ef fect that the railroads will not un dertake to carry the cadet corps to Waco and Houston. Just what the reason is seems to be indefinite as the rumor itself, but it seems that the war department has issued some re stricting order about excursions which would knock these trips out. The college authorities are still per fectly willing, in fact more than wil ling, that the corps make the two trips, and it seems that all the diffi culties come from outside. LATER: Assurances have been given by the I. & G. N. that they will be able to furnish the trains for the Waco trip. GLEE CLUB DIRECTOR OBTAINED. Dr. Bizzell has secured Mr. Dar den Ford, teacher of piano, voice and violin, to direct the College Glee Club. Mr. Ford comes to A. & M. high ly recommended, having graduated from the New England Conservatory at Boston in three years. In late years Mr. Ford has served as Director of Music at Louisiana State University and the Louisiana State Normal, situated at Natchit oches. We are very glad to welcome Mr. Ford to our institution and we feel certain that the Glee Club will be a credit to the college for there is a wealth of material and with such a director as Mr. Ford, the prospects are most promising indeed. Mr. Ford resigned his present po sition and is expected to arrive on or near November 1. S. N. Powell: “I’m going to meet her in Waco. How do you like her looks?” A. H. Jack (looking at a picture of Powell’s girl:) “I can’t say that I’d care much about meeting such an ugly girl as this one.” Powell: “Pshaw, that’s nothing. I’d enjoy being with a girl that has features like a gas mask, right now!” I BAND ACCOMPANIED TEAM TO SAN ANTONIO. The cadet band, 35 strong, under the command of Captain Cooper, at tended the Louisiana football game in San Antonio Saturday. The hund reds of old A. and M. men at the game were delighted at the appear ance of the band, and to the inspir ing tunes they learned at College, kept up a vociferous support for the team. Between halves the old stu dents, led by the band, paraded the field, and formed the famous A. and M. “T”. About half the band’s expenses were paid by the corps in a free will offering Thursday night. THE GREATEST CRIME. When you’re on leave of absence, And you’ve had a rare good time. When you wake up in the morning, Why, you don’t feel very fine. Your head feels dull and “achy,” Your mouth is parched and dry; And you feel as if you’d like to Go away somewhere and die. Then it seems it’s almost criminal, When you feel so sick and sore, For your friends to come and tell you What you did the night before. They will laugh as they relate them—- All the freakish things you did— And they’ll tell you how you acted And the foolish things you said. O, it makes you sick and angry And you say you know their game. That they’re only trying to josh you But you believe them all the same. You keep on getting madder. And you sit straight up in bed. And when they have departed, You think over what they said. O, you think of all the creatures In the world, you hate none more Than the bunch who come and tell you What you did the night before.
