Storey of Lockhart, business manager; R. S. Buchanan of Bryan, social secretary; H. H. Weatherby of Hillsboro, publicity agent; and W. L. Crawford of Palestine, decorator. With such men at the head of the Big Show and with the cooperation of the rest of the junior members of j the Saddle and Sirloin Club there is no doubt that the two thousand stu dents and scores of outsiders that attend this affair annually will be highly pleased. There will be beautiful girls—'yes, right here on this campus—'they will come from, no one knows where, but they will constitute the pageant. And | who will be Queen?—Well that is a dark secret until the pageant opens.; She may be -your best girl; last year she was from Dallas, and Dallas is bidding heavy this year, but that will he decided later. The rodeo is a big feature that arouses the interest of all the wrang lers. This year we are to have real honest-to-goodness hard pitching ani mals; no matter of cost of obtaining these animals is to be considered. They will be brought from hundreds of miles if nothing that will pitch can be had at closer range, and stu dents are to try to ride them. We have some real bronc-busters and they will have to be real ones to ride these animals. In the past we have found that some of the best riders in the state are registered in this insti tution. The exact date fo rthe show has not been decided, but it will probably be held about the first week in No vember. Don’t fail to see this show for you will talk about it in the years to come. The orchestra made a very suc cessful tour of the State last Christ mas and another one is planned for this year. The Texas cities and towns which had A. and M. Clubs large enough to stage a dance had the Ag- gieland play for them at their an nual club hop. The Aggieland is also the official orchestra for the corps dances and wdll make its initial appearance this coming Saturday. All old men know what the Aggieland can put out, and will be glad to dance to its strains once more. CUPID UP-TO-DATE. AGGIELAND ORCHESTRA. (Continued from Page 1) .McCown the piano. The ; ordhestra started work at the opening of school and meets every afternoon for prac tice. Cupid up to Date, can you imag ine anything more farcial in the sense that they are propsing to show the A. and M. Cadet Corps, THE A. and M. CADET CORPS something about Cupid. And the odds are two to one that they will! So they say? Though one is not supposed to be able to teach an old dog new tricks; the forth coming musical comedy, Cupid Up To Date, will probably be very instruc tive to most of the campus shieks for the cast is entirely local. In other words, a chance to see how she will ! act when there is some one else watching her This little musical comedy is spon sored by the Brazos County Mothers’ Club, given under the direction of Miss Smith of Houston and points east, and is given for the benefit of the B. C. M. C.’s Student Loan Fund. It, the musical comedy, which by the way has lots of IT in it, is a delight ful little comedy based on what dis astrous results occur when Cupid’s place is taken by cold reason and log ic. The costuming is rather unique and the music good, the rest you may say for yourself after you have seen it. The Sunday School is the world’s greatest institution for popularizing the world’s greatest Bookj—William E. Gladstone. . -a* —— They went into the garden; They necked for quite a spell; Then they drank a little gin— The rest ain’t fit to tell.
