good taste—and give full measure!
From start to finish, that’s the Chesterfield

cross-blended, the standard Chesterfield method

Rules for Kissers
The State Board of Health of Kan
sas, has issued rules for kissers.
They follow:
Never kiss in crowded places or a
poorly ventilated room, but if you
must kiss, take a hot mustard foot
bath and avoid drafts in case you
feel “all in,” afterwards.
Guard against sudden changes in
temperature when kissing. Kissing
in a coonskin coat one minute and
a lighter apparel the next is ex
tremely dangerous.
Don’t kiss any person who has
chills or fever.
At a party where “postoffice”
and similar games are played, be
sure to gargle frequently.
Extended Extension
Service Activities
To the engineering students, thi*
department of the campus is seldom
noticed:—to the agricultural stu
dents, the Extension Service is usu
ally overlooked until they have left
the campus as professional men. It
is true that their business does not
affect the students as much as a
football game, but a slant at the
following paragraphs will give you
an insight to the popularity and
importance of the Extension Ser
vice:
Mr. Geo. W. Barnes, beef and cat
tle specialists with the Extension
Service is to judge beef cattle in
the breeding classes at the fourth
annual Christmas live stock show
in Florida November 30 to December
7. This is one of the biggest cattle
shows in the U. S. f entries coming
from all over the West.
A meeting of more than usual
importance is that of the Agricul
tural Committee of the Texas Bank
er’s Association and the Extension
Service staff at College Station,
October 9th and 10th. Plans are to
be laid at this time for working
out closer cooperation between Ex
tension workers and the bankers
of the state. The scope of Exten
sion work is to be carefully studied
and definite ways of cooperation
outlined. District agents will arrange
with the chairmen of the bankers’
districts for district and county con
ferences of bankers and agents this
fall and winter as a means of en
listing the active support of bankers
in Extension work.
The registration figures of the
Farmers Short Course, which repre
sent roughly 60% of the total atten
dance, were about the same as those
of a year ago: 3,369 of whom 269
were in camp. Boys were more num
erous than ever with a registration
of 1043. There were 946 women, 845
girls and 515 men registered. To
these must be added those in ho
tels and residences, and the trans
ients who came by the day.
Milton Wakefield, Ellis county club
boy from Midlothian and now a
student of this college, was declared
winner during the Short Course of
the 1800.00 college siholarship offer
ed by Mistletoe-Morning Glory
Creameries to the outstanding dairy
club member in Texas.
The importance of journalism
courses in college is particularly
stressed for courses in agriculture.
Of the 2,500 extension service agents
in 33 states, only two question the
value of such courses.
