for Texas and with a huge surplus,
to sell to other states. He closed
with the emphatic statement, “We
cannot legislate ourselves into
prosperity; we must work for it.”
W. Lee showed he had lost none
of his wit by making several droll
remarks which greatly pleased the
audience. One was the comment,
following his praising of the
Singing Cadets, that “It’s just
wonderful what music can do for
you once in a while. . He told
of missing an important political
convention at Hillsboro to attend
the meeting here. “However,” he
stated, “here they shoot guns in
my honor; there they shoot at
me!” Speaking on the importance
of milk to the nation he said, “I
know, I started out on milk.”
After the governor’s speech the
representatives of the press were
introduced. Following this came
the introduction of many notables
from throughout the state and na
tion. Among these was Major S.
M. Decker, great-grandson of Gen
eral Sam Houston.

Next came the principal speak
er of the occasion, J. L. Kraft of
Chicago, president of the Kraft-
Phenix Cheese Corporation and one
of the foremost men of the dairy
industry in the entire United
States. He won the hearts of his
audience when he started off with
“When I work and work and can’t
work any more, then I’m moving
to Texas.” Mr. Kraft traced the
growth and development of the
cheese industry from 1913 to the
present time and stated that Texas
has everything to make it the
greatest dairy state there is. He
was cheered by the delegates when
he told them that he considered
Texas people the “most American
ized” people in the Union, He was
also applauded when he told of
turning down the offer of a fab
ulous amount from Russia when
the Soviet Government had tried
to employ him to develop the dairy
industry in Russia, “because they
didn’t have enough money in the
whole place to persuade him.”
Kraft ended his talk repeating the
Governor’s statement that “You
can’t legislate prosperity; you
must work for it.”
During the afternoon the dele
gates heard addresses by Prof. K.
M. Renner, head of the dairy man
ufacturers department of Texas
Technological College; F. W. Atke-
son of Manhattan, Kansas; and W.
L. Stangel, head of the department
of animal husbandry at Texas
Tech, The delegates then made
a tour of the A. & M. dairy farm
where they surveyed pasture pro
jects, inspected the college dairy
herds, and reviewed some of the
research projects which are under
way at the college.
Presbyterians Start
Drive for Funds To
Build New Church
The Presbyterian Church of Col
lege Station is conducting a cam
paign to raise funds to erect a
church building for the 600 Pres
byterian students of A. & M.
At present the church services
are held in the chapel of the Y. M.
C. A. building where they have
been held since the church was
first organized 12 years ago. The
aim of the church for several years
has been the erection of a building
of its own.
The fund for the new building
has already been started, and has
accumulated to more than $1,000.
This is just a beginning, however,
since the cost of the building to be
constructed is estimated at $75,-
000 and will include an auditorium
to accommodate 500 besides addi
tional rooms for an educational
department.
Rev. Norman Anderson, the pres
ent pastor of the church, has been
the pastor since 1928 when the
church was first started. In the
beginning there were only 22 mem
bers. Now there are over 100
members exclusive of students.
There are nearly six times as many
students as faculty members list
ed in the church rolls.

Sheep-Goat Day Is
Held Here Monday
A group of approximately 50
farmers attended the one-day
Sheep and Goat Day at Texas A.
& M. Monday to learn more about
the business of raising those ani
mals as a supplemental crop on
their farms.
Most of the discussions were in
formal and members of the college
staff answered questions asked by
the raisers.
D. W. Williams, head of the Ani
mal Husbandry Department, point
ed out that the session was not
intended to put the farmer into
the sheep or goat ranching busi
ness but rather to help them find
a crop to replace those which they
have had to curtail.
Speakers included Prof. Wil
liams and A. K. Mackey, both of
the Animal Husbandry Depart
ment; Dr. R. D. Turk, S. P.
Davis and J. M. Jones, all of the
