THE BATTALION 5 Camel is the modern favorite MODERN smokers make known their preference. And they call for Camels* Nevet ixx any age was there a smoking favorite like Camel is today. Camels understand every mood of the modern smoker. Camel mildness and smoothness are supreme with the critical taste of present-day people. A purchase of Camels brings you the choicest Turkish and Do mestic tobaccos. Blended by skill into the world’s most popular smoke, and the best. Quality un approached, is the distinguishing mark of Camel. No matter what the price, there is no better cigarette than Camels. Smoke them as frequently as you please. You will never be left with a cigaretty after-taste. Camels aren’t made that way. That is why modern smokers everywhere de mand them. That is why this age has discovered the tobacco phrase, "Have a Camel!” R. J. REYNOLDS TOBACCO COMPANY, WINSTON-SALEM, N. C. © 1927 FREE $40 SUIT Give us your business and participate in this offer.

Campus was gathered here the last week-end to visit their sons. There were approximately one thousand visitors. They were well en tertained throughout the week-end by numerous receptions, banquets, and exhibitions of the College. The pro gram was formally opened with an open air reception at the home of Dr. and Mrs. T. O. Walton Saturday even ing. This was immediately followed by a Corps Dance in the New Mess Hall Annex which was one of the best Corps dances this spring because there were enough girls to make it lively. The “stags” had a good time and were glad to get on the line and meet the fair young ladies. Sunday morning was the occasion for pinning flowers on the Cadets by young ladies or Mothers after which time the Corps was marched to Guion Hall where the entire program was turned over to the Cadets. Sunday af ternoon was taken up by an exhibition drill by the Ross Volunteers and a concert by the Aggie Band. The Moth ers and Sons Banquet was a fitting climax and termination for the joy ous week-end. The Mess Hall Man agement seemed to try to outdo it self in putting on the banquet. Due o the illness of Dr. Walton, Dean Charles E. Friley made the address .f the evening. Many of the repres- mtatives of the A. and M. Mothers ' dubs gave short speeches. After a review of the Cadet Corps at 8:00 Monday morning the rest of he morning was spent in visiting he classes and inspecting the various lepartments of the College. Many of the Mothers and Dads ere unable to be here longer than ne day but even at that it was enough to give 4’reat happiness to the boy who was fortunate enough to have his parents here. This is an event that is becoming more important each year and more and more parents attend t with each annual celebration and it is with the greatest sincerity that, the invitation is extended for more than ever to come back next year and see what their sons are doing. APPROPRIATION BUDGET MADE (Continued from Page 1) " $251,326 each year. The salary budget and the appro priations for summer school are the items that are worrying the College Heads. The legislature committees plan to put all members of teaching staffs upon a nine months basis, and have only recommended $20,000 for the A. and M. Summer School, a sum that will not even pay half the ex penses of the summer school. The House Committee has yet to com plete its budget and it is hoped that that group will allow the College a more liberal amount for salaries. President Walton has appeared before the committees several times in or der that the solons may know just what is needed. The amounts recom mended by these two committees have yet to be approved by first the House and then the Governor.
