John N. Stout
Former Student
Now Missionary
The Board of World Missions of
the Presbyterian Church, U. S., has
announced the appointment of Mr.
and Mrs, John N. Stout as educa
tional missionaries to its East Bra
zil Mission.
Stout is a native of Fort Worth
and was graduated from A&M in
1947 with a B. S. degree. He served
six years as an officer in the U.
S. Army, taking a special course
of study at Austin Theological
Seminary last year.
Mrs. Stout graduated from a
girl’s preparatory school in Chat
tanooga, Tenn. and received a BA
degree in 1946 from Texas State
College for Women.
The Stouts attended the Mission
ary Institute at Montreat, N. C.,
where they were commissioned to
foreign service on August 9,1950.
They sailed from New York on
September 21, 1950 for Brazil, and
will be studying the language for
the next several months.
Cadet Draft Status Explained
(Continued from Page 1)
ious reasons are frequently subjected to misinterpretation
and misquotation.
Cadets are again urged to lie wary of rumors or
oral statements concerning the current Selective Service
law. They are especially cautioned against making de
cisions to terminate their college and cadet training at
this time in order to enter the military service.
Mobilization of personnel for a World War is a long pro
cess and requires many, many months. Cadets should not
delude themselves into the belief that they are doing more
for their country by entering the service now as a private
than would be done by remaining here in the Corps of Cadets
and continuing the military training for which the govern
ment has already provided facilities and personnel to train
them as officers in the Army or Air Force.
It is still my belief that any cadet whose academic pro
gress is satisfactory to his Dean and himself will best serve
the interests of his country by remaining in school so as to
become a commissioned officer and obtain, at the same time,
a college degree.
S. R. Gammon III Engagement Told

sylvania, and Capt. Samuel Rhea

Gammon heads the A&M History
Department.
Capt. Gammon was commissioned
a second lieutenant in 1943. He
served in World War II, and grad
uated from A&M in 1946. He holds
a master’s degree from Princeton
and did research in England on a
Rotary Foundation Fellowship. He
was teaching history at Princeton
and writing his doctoral disserta
tion when he was recalled to duty.

S'-
The brilliant evening star is a symbol of
many things to many folk. Mariners hail it as a
good omen, for it usually forecasts a clear, calm
night and smooth sailing. The shepherd tending
his flocks on a desolate hillside gratefully notes
its appearance in the heavens, for its friendly
light offers an intangible sort of companionship
during his lonely vigil. To many, the star is rep
resentative of God’s infinite power and wisdom.
Just as this.star touches hearts in countless
different ways, so may the Church bring to those
in all walks of life peace and comfort which
lead to a happier, more fruitful pattern of life.
Let us make the Church our guiding light.
We can brighten our lives if we accept the
teaching of the Scriptures as guideposts along
the pathway to future endeavors.
THE CHURCH FOR ALL ...
ALL FOR THE CHURCH
The Church Is the greatest fac
tor on earlh for ihe building of
character and good citizenship. It
is a storehouse of spiritual values.
Without a strong Church, neither
democracy nor civilization can
survive. There ore four sound
reasons why every person should
attend services regularly and sup
port the Church. They are: (1)
For his own sake. (2) For his
children's sake. (3) For the sake
of his community and nation. (4)
For the sake of the Church itself,
which needs his moral and ma
terial support. Plan to go to
church regularly and redd your
Bible daily.
