JOHN TARLETON TRANS FERS MADE SERGEANTS (Continued from Page 1) school here and have been treated as if they were only high school gradu ates—then in the next year they re ceived their cadet commissions and were considered to be members of the Senior class. This is a very unde sirable condition since it did not allow these men to more than get acquaint ed with the Freshman class before they became Seniors. The granting of these sergeantships should be a great help to the “junior- fish” in obtaining recognition from the Juniors as classmates during their first year here rather than postpon ing it to the last year. These men have all had as much military train ing as our Juniors and some have had even more, so there is no doubt as to their ability or right to hold the po sition that their promotion entitles them to. As far as is known, Texas A. and M. and the two government schools at West Point and Annapolis are the only institutions that require men entering them from another col lege to serve an entire year as a “fish.” We are glad to see these men enter A. and M. and we hope that some plan will be devised whereby their so cial status will be determined on a more desirable scale, even if they are not placed exactly on the same plane with the Juniors. The Seminole Indians in Florida lost very little in the storm, and for a very good reason.

Real economy has been another factor. When the student buys this unfailing writing instrument, made of enduring Radite of lus trous g,rec-n, his expense ends with its first cost. There are no charges for repairs, no matter what happens. It is unreservedly guaranteed. Spot it by the dot—at better dealers everywhere. Price, in green or black, $8.75. Student’s special, $7.50.

YELLING STAFF ORGANIZED The yelling staff is now completely organized with Jake Langford, elect ed yell leader near the close of school last year, as its capable general. He has picked as his assistants Bob Oaks of Dallas, a veteran of two years’ ex perience as yell leader. Allan Peo ples of Dallas, and “Bugs” Warren of Houston, are new at the business of directing the fighting spirit of the Farmers, but they both showed that they were there with the old power when they made their initial appear ance on College Night. Couldn’t Be Capper’s Weekly: “Darling, what in the world is the matter with this lettuce?” asked the young husband of uhree days. “Didn’t you wash it?” “Of course I did, dear. I even used that good perfumed soap on it.” The only kind of man we envy is the one who can be popular without having to lend money.
