MEMORIAL TO ROSS.
Ex-Cadetx VIII Erect One at A. and
NJ. College.

College. Texas, January 1.-THE l.. s..
Ross Chapter, No. 2, of the Alpha Phi
Fraternity of Elk Cadets of the Agricul-
tural and Mechanical college held a meet
ing at the college Monday. January 10, to
perfect plans for raising funds to erect a
memorial on the college campus to the
memory of President Ross.
The sense of the meeting was that the
memorial erected by ex-students should be
at the college, where General Ross came
in most intermediate contact with the
youth of this State. whore they came to
know him personally, and TO love him as
father.
The citizens of Texas will certainly erect
a monument at the resting place of her
illustrious citizen, but every ex-cadet OF
the Agricultural and Mechanical college
should devote his means and effort to the
erection of memorial building at College
where the alumni and Alpha Phi may
meet once each year to do honor to the
memory OF him they loved so we'll. and
where the students OF coming years may
learn the story of his illustrious life.
Committees and plans for cooperation
will be made public within few days.
