The Pipe
even helps you say
nothing at all • . •
XT'OU’VE noticed hov/ expressive
-I- the pipe can be, what meaning
it can put into the simplest gesture.
The pipe even helps you say nothing
at all—and that, O mortal, takes
a man among men !
Men to their pipes and women
to their lipsticks—but suppose you
had no pipe and faced repression?
Suppose you had no tobacco to put
in your pipe! Empty pipes make
empty gestures that have no mean
ing. Filled with good tobacco, your
pipe becomes eloquent. Filled with
Edgeworth, it is Olympian!
What, no Edgeworth? Lose not
a moment—haste to the mails with
the coupon. Let the machinery of
government rush to you a free
packet of good old Edgeworth,
delicious and friexidly Edgeworth,
full-flavored, slow-burning, cool.
Edgeworth is a careful
blend of good tobaccos
—selected especially for
pipe-smoking. Its quality
and flavor never change.
Buy Edgeworth any
where in two forms —
“Ready Rubbed”and
“Plug Slice” —15c pock
et package to pound hu
midor tin.

It takes a good town to appreciate
a good man. And it takes a good man
to fulfill the expectations of
such a burg. Every now and then we
find this type of an individual. Whe
ther he plays a bag-pipe or a French
harp; a pipe organ or a piano—if he
plays it well he has learned the first
lesson in that all important subject
—sex appeal. The Aggieland Orches
tra is proud to say that it has in
its midst with the necessary IT, a
man that has accomplished the art
of coaxing soothing, hautning melo
dies from his saxophone, a man that
never takes “No” for an answer but
always tries just a trifle harder. Let
us introduce him to you. He is none
other than Mr. Fritz Mueller from
that big city of Kenedy where, it
has been said, men are men and wo
men are glad of it. If all of this does
not seem to be true merely glance
at the following paragraph which is
copied verbatin from “The Kenedy
Advance.” It was sent to us by the
editor of that paper and we were
asked to print it at our first oppor
tunity.
“Fritz Mueller, student at A. and
M. College, has been spending the
Christmas holiday period as a mem
ber of the famous Aggieland Orches
tra playing for dances at various
points over the state. The orchestra
played in Kenedy Monday morning
for the annual German given by the
A. and M. Club of Wilson, Karnes
and Bee counties. A member of the
orchestra stated that the dance here
was one of the finest they had ever
played for and seemed to be more
generally enjoyed. Fritz started out
with the Kenedy school orchestra un
der the leadership of Leinhard and
during his high school days was the
star saxophone palyer for the local
orchestra. By virtue of his splendid
training he made the orchestra after
entering college for his second year,
and has since been playing regularly
with that organization. He also plays
in the band, and gets to make many
pleasant, interesting and exciting
trips during the school year.”

It is not often that one eats a meal
before going to a banquet. It is rare
ly done but we find it in the best
of families. When this does occur it
is usually by an absent minded pro
fessor or a very busy man who if
worried. In this case he is of the lat
ter type and we introduce to you our
own sports editor, Mr. Paul Jelly
Dresser.
Setting a new precedent in the ar^
of forgetting engagements, Paul de
layed the Battalion Staff banquet
the other night by making its mem
bers wait at least twenty minutes for
him to finish his supper. He really
enjoys Sbisa hash. It may he safely
said, however, that he ate everything
that was placed before him on the
banquet table. Even down to that las*
cup of coffee, he did not refuse any
thing.
May Allah give us all appetites
such as this, for then, and only then,
will our success in society be assur
ed.
In 1895 there were only 13 pieces
in the College band? Wonder how
long it would take them to play “90,-
000 blue notes?”
