’92 also are coming back in full force
and will contribute to the history
making reunion.
The mere boys of 1904 and of 1909,
’10, ’ll, and ’12, also will be back. Of
course there too will be many Aggies
who will return whose classes will
not be holding reunions. Some of
these faithful ones make it back every
year and without their return com
mencement would not be commence
ment.
The Y. M. C. A. building is being
set aside exclusively for alumni and
former students and other accommo
dations will be provided as needed. In
order that we may know something of
about how many to provide for those
who contemplate returning are re
quested to advise Association head
quarters. An effort will be made to
provide comfortable quarters for
everyone. 4
The full program for the com
mencement exercises is given
in The Aggie The annual
business meeting of thfe ^^s^ciatio.
of Former Students will be held Mon
day afternoon at 2 o’clock in the Y. M.
C. A. Chapel. That night the Brazos
county exes will entertain the visit
ing delegation with a party the de
tailed plans for which will be an
nounced later.
This year’s graduating class will be
the second largest in the history of
the College. There will be 211 to re
ceive the Bachelor’s degree in either
engineering or agriculture in some of
their phases.
The program is an elaborate one
and those who have not attended a
commencement exercise in recent
years will have a rare opportunity
thead of them for a great week.—The
Aggie.

ANIMAL HUSBANDRY PICNIC
On the afternoon and evening of
May 1 the annual picnic of the Animal
Husbandry students was held at Royal
Pond.
Immediately after dinner of that
day the A. H. students started a mi
gratory movement for the picnic
grounds and by 4 o’clock 200 guests
had arrived. The program for the
afternoon was started at once.
The first event was a baseball game
between the A. H. professors and
the seniors of that department. The
game was a thriller. Up until the
third stanza the Profs were leading
by the narrow margin of one run. In
the fourth Dick Shelton turned a de
feat into a victory when he tripled
with two on. These scores proved
enough to give victory to the sen
iors. The final count was 2 to 1.
A second game was started but it
was brought to an abrupt end when
Jake Parr and Bunny Flint announc
ed “soupy”. It is to their efforts and
knowledge of the culinary arts that an
excellent spread consisting of barbe
cued meats, hot buns, potato salad
boiled eggs and hot coffee was serv
ed. This delectable repast was top
ped off with ice cream, cake, fruit
and lemonade.
After the feed Dean Kyle made a
short talk in which he said that he
was heartily in favor of the proposed
A. H. library. Following the Dean the
editor of the Farm and Ranch made
an educational talk on problems of
the A. H. men in Texas. >
These talks were followed by
mounted wrestling matches, foot
races, and finally the urge to return
to College Station. Everyone is cen
tering attentions for next year’s af
fair.

CARD OF THANKS.
Caldwell, Texas, April 30, 1924.
Our family assembled at home. It
is through the will of God that we
have one vacant chair and the absence
of the sweet charming voice of our
dearly beloved son and brother.
We take this method of extending
our heartfelt thanks and appreciation
for the consoling words, the many
beautiful floral offerings, and the as
sistance offered us during the recent
sudden death of our beloved son and
brother. We shall never forget the
campus friends and the students of
A. and M. College who were so he
roic in their efforts to save the life of
our loved one. We also wish to thank
the friends of Bryan for their noble
assistance rendered. We assure each
of you that words are inadequate to
express our gratitude. May God bless
each of you is our prayer.
MR. AND MRS. JOHN STRUWE.

lost!
Don’t give a cap
“too much rope
Just when you’re hurrying the most
— zip! and away goes that shaving
cream cap. The new cap on Williams
ends the nuisance forever. It’s hinged
on and can’t get lost.
In shaving, too, Williams has just as noticeable im
provements: Williams lather is heavier and more closely
woven. It holds the water in against the beard. Result:
quicker softening. Williams lather lubricates — no irri
tating friction. Last, Williams is decidedly helpful to the
skin. It keeps your face comfortable no matter how
heavy your beard and how tender your skin. There’s
no coloring matter in Williams—it is a natural white,
absolutely pure. Say “ Williams Hinge-Cap” toyour dealer.
