Sam Pinson and Tiney Keene were
among those who sojourned to Aus
tin for the week-end.

W. L. Pfluger was on pass to take
in the Franklin Fair. It was prob
ably the “fair” that attracted him.

Rev. H. W. Knickerbocker of
Houston was on the campus Satur
day and Sunday to deliver an ad
dress, and also to visit his son Her
man. He was accompanied by Mr.
and Mrs. Arthur Knickerbocker. Old
students will remember Arthur as an
old Aggie quarterback.
PRODUCERS SURPLUS.
Some of you mirror-gazing discip
les of Stacomb may not believe this
yarn, and will doubtless rise up on
your hind feet and shout the prover
bial watchword of Aggieland: “B.S.”
(baked sausage).
Nevertheless there was an old-
time darkey ambling peacefully down
the big road beside his wagon, which
was filled with corn, (the wagon I
mean) when he was hailed by a pass
ing planter.
“Where did you get that corn,
Uncle?”
“Morning Sah, ’bout eight miles
down the road Sah, in de city ob
Hearne.”
“Where are you hauling it?”
“Four miles fudder on to Franklin,
Sah.”
“How much dit it cost you?”
One dollah thirty-five de bushel,
Sah, and I’se got a contrak wid a
white gemman who is goin to gimme
$1.35 fah it delibered in Franklin,
Sah.”
“Great guns Uncle! What do you
get out of this deal?”
“Nothin but de business, Sah,
nothin but de business.”
No, Priscilla! Prexy didn’t put on
his white gloves last night because
he thought Col. Todd’s furniture was
dusty!
No Mable! A draftsman is not a man
who drives draft horses.

Dere Rummitt:
Well. I’m on my last lap now—only
I’m talking about the college years,
for I hope this won’t be my last lap.
Will you tell we where a man’s laps
goes to when he stands up ?
“Red” Thompson was here last
week for the Southwestern game.
“Red’s” grin reminds me of one of
Sbisa’s tables—six times as long as
it is wide.
I have a black eye this week. I
had a date in Bryan and I told the
girl a parlor joke—but I was in the
wrong parlor.
I know how you are about that
five you filched from me when we
were Fish. You’ve meant to send it
to me but always seal the envelope and
can’t get the five in it. I don’t see
why mother didn’t name you Owen.
“Pat” Olsen got married last week.
He used to pitch on the baseball team
but now he’s “catching the home
plate.” His wife is the daughter of
the head of the Subsistence Depart
ment. Sounds like in the good old
days—Free lunch counter.
“Uncle Dan” and Dean Puryear had
an Old Setler’s Reunion the other
night. Regular bull pen! “Uncle
Dan” swept him out good; and this
in the only time that the Dean has
not said, “Put it in writing.”
I received quite a shock yesterday.
My roommate threw a piece of fruit
cake at me and a current ran up my
sleeve.
As I must clothe for a date I must
close.
Yours,
TOM.
Said the moth, as he sniffed at the
Camphor,
“I’m sorry I’m here where I am-
phor
Some things that I eat
Taste pleasant and sweet,
But camphor I don’t give a dam-
phor.” —Ex.
Fish—This hat’s too small for me.
Every time I laugh it slides off my
head.
Cheatem—Here’s one two sizes lar
ger. Try to laugh that off.
