RABBI’S RAVINGS.
THERE was a time back in

ANCIENT history when
* * *
TAPERS furnished light for
:{: Jj: :|i
MANKIND after the setting of
OLD SOL and candle makers
Hs *
WAXED fat and prospered
* * *
WHILE the wise men of
* * *
THE land read and studied
* * *
SCHOOLS and woodcuts and

ACQUIRED much knowledge

UNDER difficulties. And then
i{:
OIL spouted up from the
* :|j
EARTH and an ingenious old

BIRD produced the first

LAMP and soon after gas

BECAME the rage with all

UNTIL the popularity of

AND then along came the

WIZARD of Menlo Park with
'I' d-

thanking the ushers who handled the
Texas game so efficiently Thursday.
Practically every one was seated by
the time of the kick-off except a few
late comers who were held up before
arriving at the field. So far as I
can learn from the inspectors on
duty, not a single kick was regis
tered by parties who failed to obtain
the seats sold to them. Quickly
seating a large football crowd is no
small matter and these boys who
served without compensation the
College is indebted to.
To the Cadets who helped in other
capacities the A. and M. Council is
indebted, and thanks are hereby ex
tended and the work complimented.

Director.

The Idea: Lincoln studied by fire
light and became president. But—
we’re Democrats, so what’s the use.
CO. I, 23—BATTERV A, 14
In the first inter-company basket
ball game of the season, Battery A
went down in defeat before the on-
slought of Co. I’s team. The game
was a fast and snappy one, both
teams showing good form. At the
end of the first half the score stood
11 to 10 in favor of Company I,
but when the whistle blew for the
second half, Company I came back
strong and it was easily evident that
the Battery was no match for them.
Co. I seemed to have no difficulty
all in piling up twelve points while
the Battery strove hard in their ef
fort to add but four points to their
score.
This was the first time that any of
Company I’s men had played to-
V rDog ry_. hv <ru..
the beauty and delicacy of the mod
ish fabrics they wear, and the pret
ty stage settings have caused “Leave
It To Jane” to be the big smashing
musical comedy success of today.

THE
War mariages cause crowding at
Cambridge University, states a news
dispatch from England. It reports
about 5,000 students, 1,000 more
than in 1913, and many more of them
than usual are married and have
children. This crowds the town.
The college man who crossed the
Atlantic to fight militarism is not
the one to be a quitter when the
fight against alcoholism is carried
across the ocean.
