“Y” Workers at Navasota.
About fifteen members of the Y
Cabinet and others journeyed to Nav
asota Sunday night and rendered a
religious program at a union service
there. Mr. N. H. Abrams, President
of the Cabinet made the introductory
address telling something of the work
of the Association at A. and M.
Musical numbers were rendered by
Fish Duncan and a male quartette
consisting of Preston, McCluney,
Winchester and Braselton. Mr. L.
G. Jones followed with a splendid
talk on the “Four Square Man.” D.
D. Steele and C. B. Potts told of the
religious work at college, and the
program was concluded by an inter
esting talk from Hsu on the customs,
habits and needs of China.
Following the program the visitors
were royally entertained by the Nav
asota girls and served delicious re
freshments of coffee and sandwiches.
The “Y” hopes to make a number
of these trips and help to extend its
religious influence to much of the
surrounding territory.

Look Ahead to Houston.
An Aggie dance under Aggie aus
pices in a foreign town—that is the
theme of our town crier now.
On the night of November 17, at
8:30 the Rice ballroom will be open to
ye all. Mr. M. E. Dart, officiating,
announces that the Aggieland Eight
will play. The members of both
teams will be the guests of the oc
casion.
Write for that old date now. Don’t
procrastinate, ’cause we want to syn
copate. Tell your best friend to tell
his best friend. That’s best! Let’s
show Houston that the Aggie spirit
don’t stop at the gate to the football
field—coming out. Be there! So are
you, ain’t I?
❖ * *
A Reminder.
Don’t forget that “day after the
battle” corps dance at Sbisa’s Hall
next Saturday night. And please
bring a date. The more, the merrier.
Give an S. M. U. girl a chance to
hear Sol Bartlett and his Aggieland
orchestra play in their native habi
tat.
The dance will start promptly at
8:30; so be on hand then. We don’t
want to hear any griping when mid
night comes and the music, perforce,
must stop. Introduce your girl to an
Aggieland dance, and we’ll appreciate
it. Don’t leave this dance out of your
life. Remember that the sin of om
ission is the greatest sin of all.
