    MISS NEALE AND STAFF
SERVE MEALS TO
Have Worked Faithfully Throughout
Epidemic At A. & M. College.
The “flu” epidemic at College has
brought about one innovation here
tofore unheard of in the annals of
A. & M. administration. The pass-
ersby on the Campus in the past
week were very much surprised one
day to see overseas canteen work
apparently going on in our very
midst. On inquiring, the interest
ed were enlightened as to the where
fore of the unusual sight.
On Tuesday of last week, the num
ber of ill in the dorimtories became
so increased that Dr. Bizzell asked
Miss Neale of the Extension depart
ment to take charge of the situa
tion as regards serving the sick men
with meals. Miss Neale called to
gether her staff and plans were im-

! mediately formulated and com-
SICK. mittees appointed. For ten days,
meals have been thus served by and
under the direction of these com
mittees. Even the severe rains of
last Monday morning did not dis
courage these workers, and dinner
was served at the usual hour.
With the cooperation of Mr. Sbisa
and his staff, much depleted by ill
ness, the committees have been able
to furnish more or less of the regu
lation sick diet for all men confined
to barracks.
Those cadets and soldiers well
enough have cooperated splendidly
in serving their less fortunate broth
ers. The company lieutenants have
attended faithfully to do their part
in seeing that their men were well
taken care of.
To the women, especially who
have spent many hours each day at
kitchen drudgery to do their “bit”
to help the situation, too much cred
it can not be given.
Those in charge of the work are
Miss Neale, chairman, Miss Man
ning, Miss Alderson and Miss Wip-
nrecht in Mess hall, Miss Spence and
Miss Roquemore at Station No. 1,'
Miss Berry, Miss Wipprecht, and Miss
Merwin at Station No. 2, and Miss
Higgins and Miss Henley at Station
No. 3, where the soldiers have been
served. In addition, many catnpus
women and other young women
working for the college have helped
most willingly, and most heartily.
<- Personally we hope that out of
IC the wreck of empires and the crush'
£ j of worlds will come some new force
*> | capable of making the fashions more
, favorable to fat folks.
