This little article i» probably m> imairinattvc that only
thoM who <fream will enjoy it to the fuUeet extent.
For the past three years the most consistent topic of
{conversation, or in plain words “bull sessions,*’ has been the
dreamers' idea of paradise, that is, the bodily moving of
T.S.C.W, to a spot ihomewhera within a distance of five
miles (or cleoer) to A* A M. I have to say three years because
that is the length of time yours truly has attended here, but
in all probability the idea has been circulating for many
years. Just to get an idea of some of the happening^, good
and bad, let's attempt to muster our dreams and see what
won Id happen.
One thing is certain,* that is the sprucing up of the
corps, there would no longer be the “devil may care** atti
tude about the uniform. There would be a run on the
cleaning aryd pressing business. No, I have nothing.to do with
that “racket”! But pants would be pressed and surely all Ot
us can see the advantage in that respect. The trim shirts and
.other such clothing would be thrown away. In general th**
clothing business would see prosperity.
There would be built a large dance hall, it would have to
be large to take care of the crowd. The fact that more people
would attend the dances would please the senior class. Per
haps they could make money on all of their dances.
The number of things that would be changed, materially,
can be readily seen, hut right now let’s get Into the more in
teresting changes that would take place.
* The moon,* ah! that beautiful sphere would not waste
its beams during IM week, only to be worked overtime on
the weekends. The dull and uninteresting campus at night,
would rise up to glorious heights and be forever* supreiqc *
in the sky. Love stories would be told, new ones and old,
the night would be filled with the sweetest of whispers,
the braese* would carry the perfume of a thousand flow
ers. and lovers would he brought together for ages, at
least it would seem like ages after some of the hurried •
trips that have beea accomplished by the ca4ats4
Gills at home would be forgotten, boys at home would
be no longer important; four years of friendship to look
forward to. Who, I ask, would neglect his or her duties to
be sent holm* from such s paradise? It would be the mark
of a moroa to leave such bliss for the dullness that other
schools wopld offer.
The oil saying that “an Aggie would leave two days (
early on a corps trip to Hell” wonld be buried and for
gotten. for who would leave on weekends? Where would he
go to find anything to match the pick of a thousand charms
not five miles away? This idea would probably please the
administrative officers of the college (the leaving on week-
cads, I mean.)
Instead of coming back from a weekend, one of those [
special weekends, ifful mooning around the.rocyn for hburs.
even days, thtokhic about the marvelous time, one cpald
look forward to th? next date without having «b think 1 of
the expense, the cutting of classes, to be with the O. A.'O.

There would be no more unnecessary explaining to
letfars. In fact, I doubt if letter writing would at

an Jeon, on the subj«rt of what type of letter writer ode is
t«> t* catalogued as, would be forgotten.

pidtare knyone doing jaueh an outlandish thing? Why thht is
jug about as much out of the question as this article itjMtf.
- The intramural games would be played with new ivim
vigor, for who would refuse a chance to “shine” Urfore
wd of lovely ladies? There would be no more beghiag
the bogy's to enter the sports, and the intramural depart-
t woidd reach the height of importance. Maybe they
get some decent equipment. How’s that for a plug.

It is too had that there are not mon* single men in the
her offices of the college, as they might listen to reason
their love hadn’t already visited them and it steadily’
ping them on the straight and narrow*.
