PRINCE ALBERT stepped out into the world
nearly twenty years ago. Success was immediate
♦ . . and outstanding. Because P. A. measures
up to the first and greatest rule for success: It has
the goods! The school of experience has pro
duced no finer tobacco than this.
Just buy yourself a tidy red tin of P. A. and
tamp a load flush with the muzzle of your old
jimmy-pipe. Connect with a match, and let
that first wonderful drag tell you that no other
tobacco can come within a mile of this for sheer
pipe-quality.
Cool as a dormitory radiator. Sweet as an
extra cut. Fragrant as a peach-orchard. P. A.
can’t bite your tongue or parch your throat
—another important detail. Get yourself some
Prince Albert today. No other tobacco can
bring you so much downright smoke-pleasure.
Fringe Albert
—no other tobacco is like it!

RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES
AT THE COLLEGE
Religious activities of the various
denominational groups at the A. and
M. College of Texas are well under
way for the present school year. It
is expected that several churches at
the College will erect buildings of
their own just north of the Campus
during the next 9 months, on ground
purchased in past years. Most group
services are now conducted in College
lecture rooms.
According to. reports compiled to
date, the denominations are represent-
I ed as follows in the student body:
Methodist 641, Baptist 560, Presby
terian 282, Christian 162, Episcopal
116, Catholic 110, Lutheran 50, Church
of Christ 26, Jewish Reformed Church
15. These figures will be increased
when registration records are com
pleted, and as additions are made to
groups.
Religious convocation is held each
Sunday morning at 10:50 o’clock in
G'uion Hall, the College auditorium.
This service is compulsory for all stu
dents, and is also attended by Cam
pus residents and Bryan people. Lead
ing religious workers of the state
are invited to conduct these services.
Station WTAW, the College radio
broadcasting station, features these
weekly services.
A union Sunday School is conduct
ed in Guion Hall each Sunday for all
students and Campus residents who
are not affiliated with some group un
der the direction of M. L. Cushion,
secretary of the Y. M. C. A.
Rev. J. C. Thomson, Methodist pas
tor, has been at work on the campus
for the past two years. Services for
his group are conducted in the Meth
odist Tabernacle. A parsonage is
planned for erection in the near fu
ture, to replace the temporary struc
ture now in use.
The Baptist group is in charge of
Rev. R. L. Brown, who has been at the
College for the past six years. The
group services are filling the tempo
rary quarters in use and plans are un
der way for the erection of a church
building on ground adjoining the pas
tor’s home off the campus.
At present the Presbyterian work is
under the direction of Dean F. C. Bol
ton of the College, but a pastor has
been called and plans are being com
pleted for the erection of a pastor’s
home before Christmas. Services for
the group are held in the Y. M. C.
A. building.
The Episcopal group has started
out this year with a new pastor. In
former years services were led by the
Bryan pastor and men from other
cities. Rev. W. W. Daup, formerly
of Rochester, Minn., has arrived on
the campus and taken over the work.
