THE KIK8T PART
It was iosh Billinas, I believe* who
office advised that it is better to grab
a bull by the tail than by the hom*,
because then it is easier to let go
when you come near a friendly tree
or. fenc*. Good advice, too, and some
to 1 which I expect to cloitely adhere
throughout this article; because, if
ever an Aggie needs an “easy out,”
it’a when he is discussing our sistev
school. T. S. Q. W.
Believe it or not, the number <>f
Aggies who have never been to S%
C. W. is nearly as great as the number
that have been there; and, I am sorry
to say, at the present time I am-on •
of the former group. But not for
long—because, if the tales and legends
that I have heard of Denton land are
even partly true, then we luckle*«
Aggies who have never been there
* have yet to live life in the fallestL
Frankly, I was not aware that there
Were three thousand beautiful girls in
the entire world, yet one Aggie would
have me believe that there are that
many oa the T. S. C. W. campus <tom*.
Vital statistics point out that our ah*
ter school is the largest state-supp tri
ed women’s college in the world, but
Aggie statistics indicate that the name
of the college should he changed from
T. S. C. W to W. S. C. W,—World’s
Sweetest Collection of Women!
After spending nearly two yean*
at Afgieland. I have become thorough
ly saturated with the idea that Der>
ton is a “wonnerful” place—and not
because of any Chamber of Commerce
improvements, either, but strictly be-
. cause the T. S. C. Wiles are so much
* in evidence. Like a few hundred other
Aggies who have never been to Den-
land, I’m darn curious! I have two
friends who are equally as curious.
- If the powers-that-be can’t bring T.
C. W\ to the Brasos bottoms, we thro-
are going to take our curiosity Den-
Wmward and pay the gals a visit. We
have heard, of course, the tale of the
cat and the bloody effects curiosity
had on it, but—if we haven’t* been
wholly misled—an Aggie at Denton
should fare considerably-better than
the proverbial cat. At the preoent
time there are nearly six thousand
' cadets enrolled at A. A M . and ut
least half of -this number have visited
Denton at one time or another. Thrvt
, thousand Aggies CANT be wrong—
T. S. C, W. must have something!

THE THIRD PAgf
I had v honrti of, I wenti So, and I
saw a'ytrtehble heaven-o4-earth. If
there is Such a place as an Aggie
utopia, that place is the T. S. C. W.
campus. It should be a prerequisite to
receiving any A. A M degree that the
candidate must have been to Denton-
land on at Inapt.ope oeqaaion during
his sojurn at our Sing-Sing>on-the-
