This special school is the only one providing for the train ing of game wardens in the state and is a very important phase of their intense training. “These 16 men began their war den training last Sept. 1 with a week of indoctrination at Camp Bullis, near San Antonio,” said Ed Henry, practical law instructor for the school. “At Camp Bullis they were briefed on keeping rec ords and reports, general game laws and the departmental struct ure of the Texas Parks and Wild life Department, said Henry. “Upon leaving Camp Bullis, the warden trainees went directly into the field, working mainly with game census until last November,” said Henry. “Then they served as apprentice wardens, each work ing with a regular game warden doing law enforcement work until the last of December.” The 16 future wardens worked with the Coastal and Island Fish eries biologists through most of January, then came to A&M to at tend a Civil Defense course offered at the State Civil Defense School here from Jan. 27-31, according to Henry.

We may not like the weather we have now, but something different will come soon. We experience a great variety of weather in a dozen months. It’s a great consolation to have this mighty spectacle of spring and autumn, sun and rain, day and night continually unfold around us. It’s the dependable rhythm of nature, the ebb and flow of seasons, the beauty of earth and sky, which give our lives a firm ground tone. But Christianity is not a nature religion. It finds the revelation of God in nature alone but even more in human personality — our own, as the children of God, and supremely in Jesus as the Son of God. That is why it is necessary for us to become an important part of His Church. We can get in the mood to understand the presence of God when we experience the quietness of the woodlands or hear waves breaking against the cliffs, or look heavenward at the billowing clouds. But, it is not enough to get in a mood. We must join in the communion and fellowship of other believers in order to obtain our purpose and faith. Come, let us go into the House of the Lord. . . .
