A qualified in formant said the “classified” list is almost as large, in terms of fac tories and larger in dollar expen diture.

Tubbs spoke of three important phases in the field of veterinary medicine—the State As sociation, poultry practice and general practice—as he addressed the AVMA at their meeting re cently. In speaking of the State Asso ciation, he urged all graduating seniors to become members and em phasized a few of the numerous benefits which are derived from its membership. He warned against the possibil ity of the graduating veterinarian overlooking the advantages pre sented by poultry practice. Al though poultry practice is consid ered to be of minor importance in many localities, it is nevertheless very important and essential to the poultry raiser and warrants more attention than it has received in the past, Dr. Tubbs said.

" Bobby is thoroughly absorbed in the antics of the kit tens. He will be pleased to discover that at the end of the story they find their mittens again. Like all chil dren, he wants his stories to have happy endings. But soon Bobby is going to find out that life's stories don't all have happy endings. Bobby is growing up, out of the land of fairies and elves, into the world of reality Bobby must learn to meet sorrow with understanding, pain with courage, prosperity with thankful ness, defeat with hope, success with humility—he must learn to face life. Gifts The Church School is waiting with open doors for Bobby, your Bobby. The Church School is pre pared to show your children the best ways to make life a success. The Church School is ready to teach your children—in the lan guage of children — the eternal truths of life. t THE CHURCH FOR ALL .... ALL FOR THE CHURCH The Church is the greatest factor on earth for the building of character and good citizenship. It is a store house of spiritual values. Without a strong Church, neither democracy nor civilization can survive. There are four sound reasons why every person should attend service regularly and support 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 material support. Plan to go to church on Sunday and read your Bible daily. COLLEGE STATION AFTER CHURCH J. €.
