THE BIG NOISE MINSTREL
GIVEN MONDAY NIGHT
(Continued from Page 1)
and George Young will call in all
the ‘chickens” and birds with his
melodious whistling. Of course the
minstrel is to be featured by the end
men, consisting of “Red” Thompson,
Mayo, Riley, and Goodman, who, by
the way, is some little singer “his-
self”. He will feature the evening
with the song which has brought
memories of by-gone days to everv-
one and despondency as to the fu
ture, “ Oh, Corkscrew, You ha^'e
Lost Your Pull. If sufficiently
urged we are asked to announce that
will consider to sing the latest song
of his own composition which has not
been published as yet and for which
he has not obtained a copyright,
“You Can’t Drive a Nail With a
\ Sponge, No Matter How Hard You
'Soak it.”
So you see what we have for the
future — can you beat it. College
Station is lucky to get the opportun
ity of such because it is seldom that
such a show makes a place of this
size. Show your appreciation by at
tending and we will see that you
never regret it. Don’t forget: Mon
day evening, 8: 30.
The Fish of “Foster Apartments”
suddenly became aware of the fact
on a certain night last week that
they were in need of a little fresh
air. It seemed that the atmosphere
in the vicinity of the campus was a
bit stuffy so they took to the more
thinly populated parts of Brazos
county for their airing. Several of
the worst affected, spent a part of
the night in Wellborn but felt suffi
ciently relieved to come back in time
for breakfast the next morning. Tt
seems as if these little outings are
coming into popularity of late with
the fish. We wonder why?

Too much wishbone and not
enough backbone is a bad condition.
It takes backbone to save; wishing
won’t get you anywhere, but Thrift
Stamps and War Savings Stamps will
if systematically purchased.
Speaking about opportunities, the
Government is offering quite a few
to its people in making it possible
for them to purchase savings se
curities in denominations ranging
from 25c to $1,000.
