ber 4, 1876.

The first students’ publication at
A. and M. was issued in December
1878 and was known as The Texas
Collegian. That this name was
changed in 1889 and that the first
issue of The Battalion appeared in
1893, edited by F. M. Law who is
now president of the Board of Di
rectors.
The self-made man stalked into the
office of a great financier with whom
he had an appointment.
“I don’t suppose you remember me,”
he began, “but twenty years ago,
when I was a poor messenger-boy,
you gave me a message to carry—”
“Yes, yes!” cried the financier,
“where’s the answer?”—Punch

THE SONG OF THE ENGINEER
I sing a song of hardship, of light-
in’ battles rough.
Of glorious accomplishment—not
glorious enough.
Of pleasures, too hilarious,- at which
the righteous smirk;
But, I say, we’re the Engineers, that’s
in our line of work.
I sing a song of hardship beyond
“white collared” ken
Of battling with the wildernes, pit
ting the strength of men
Against grim Nature’s armaments
And yet, we cannot shirk,
For, I say, we’re the Engineers, that s
in our line of work.
I say that we accomplish, but never
quite enough.
We gash great scars o’er mountain
sides, we crash on thru the bluff.
We penetrate your ghastly swamps
where deadly fevers lurk,
For we’re the Engineers, you know,
that’s in our line of work.
I’ve sung a song of hardships of
work and joy and strife.
I’ll tell you, now, the thing to which
we dedicate our life.
Not for ourselves we do the job and
bear the loads that irk;
Not for ourselves do we Engineers
strive in our line of work.
Service is the sacred trust for which
we give our lives.
For generations yet unborn we
sweat, and curse, and strive.
We build for all posterity. . Our tru-t
we will not shirk.
For we’re the Engineers—Service
our line of work. W. S.
The fellow who puts everything
off ’til the last moment will have an
awful time on his death bed.
A. and M. gives you its name;
don’t disgrace it.
Angry Prof.:, “How dare you swear
before me?”
Stude: “How did I know you want
ed to swear first ? ”

Judge: “Now, Rufus, I don’t ex
pect to see you here again.”
Rufus: “Not see me here again?
Why, you ain’t goin’ to resign your
job is you judge?”
—Exchange.

Why worry over the theory of evo
lution as advanced by some ? After
all it is the flea, not the ape that
makes the closest approach to man.
Friendship is the only cement that
will hold the world together.
