“Rabbi”
Mere mention of the name of ‘Rdb-
bi’. ‘is enoairh to bring a pleasant
smile to nine-tenths of the boys here—
for ’Rabbi’ is a real mixer and a
good-fellow also.
His specialty is entertainment, but
he ia tarrying his Hort coftrse with
credit. However, without Farm Man
agement he would not know what to
do through the many hours thus
freed.
A man who is equally at home in
the swamps of Mississippi, on the L
of Chicago, in a bull-pen at A. and
M., or in Bryan Society. Energuftic/
wise, ambitious, and an optimist.
‘Rabbi’ we are glad to have such a
man with us.
Your strength has aided many when
unfortunate, your wisdom has often
helped others into s proper course,
and your unfailing cheerfulness has
time after time made the days seem
brighter to some friend.
May all your deeds of kindness re
turn you a full measure of life's soc-

and pleasures.
With the disadvantage of hailing
from Bryan to battle against, he
came, he saw, he conquered. “Chick--,
en” is a human dynamo. He contains
more bottled up energy than any three
men who ever lived. He never stops.
Efficiency is hit middle name.
Square and an the level with all
men. he never- demands more of his
company than ht is willing to do him-
self. His interest in all matters is of
vital nature and when he begins an
undertaking, su<cess is the ultimate
gHhaoina. j | ' -ji : ; 1
He is thorough and conscientious in
all his activities, whether it be on the
gridiron, in the classroom, or on the
ballroom floor.
A ladies’ man unrivalled by Ches
terfield or Lochinvar! He "wamps”
’em right and left with his frank and
•pen manner, i
,■* He commands the respect of all
who know him and with pride we list
him with our friends.
T. A. CHEKVES.
-fin- • ■ \
Of a college-full of good men this
smiling fellow from Marlin has been
the recipient of more honors than any
other one at A. and M. With a won-
derful personality and a quiet man
ner he has won the heartiest friend
ship of the student body.
Having the courage of his convic
tions, his motto is “D« or Die.** We
have learned this about him and when
we need a man to get results we go
to Cheeves. And he neve* fails us.
He is Old Reliable personified.
With the greatest aversion for all
things military, he ie affiliated with
the Royal and Benevolent Order of the
Sons of Rest.
He has given the students the best
Battalion of recent years and haa
instituted many i>olicies that will re
main through the coming years.
His strong character has made
many lasting impressions here at A.
and M. and we are proud of< Tom and
are glad that we have had him here.

It being the usual custom of the
\ ar.ous clubs of the College to give
a banquet sometime during the year,
FRONT BASEMENT; 1
the Northwest Texas Club got away
with a start by giving a dinner! and
theatre party last Friday night. The
idea of a stag affair was entirely dis
pensed with in this initial banquet
and as a result thirteen of the most
popular, charming amiable witty and
ladies of
'll ' • i
Bryan
were the sharers of this epoch of
unrestrained joy.
The banquet was held in the dining
room of the Bryan Hotel and thru-
out same (which lasted from 7:30 to
9:00) there are re peals of laughter
and indications of uncontined joy.
