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!”

DAD COLE’S

Between Leggett and Bat-
Roost Halls
MOTHER’S-DAD’S
DAY PROGRAM
WELL ATTENDED
One of the largest crowds that has
celebrated Mothers and Dads Day on
the A. and M. 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.
