AT AGRICULTURAL AND ME-
CHANICAL COLLEGE OF TEXAS

Farmers to defeat their friendly riv.
ais. But the football squad of 1912 will
probably go down in history as the
greatest machine ever put on a field
by Charlie Moran, who has developed
more good athletes than any three
men In Texas.
The team ran up a score of 376
points as compared to rs points by
their competitors. They were bested
in only one contest that being with
Kansas A. & NJ, and that game was
played in mud knee deep. Five A. &c
M. warriors were given births on the
AllSouthern team, six on the official
AllTexas team, while eight OF the Tex
as Farmers were rated as second
best all!Texas men. In addition to
that the title of champions OF the
Southwest was pinned on the banner
of the Farmers.
But II man has TO deliver the goods
to make the team, he has to make
far bigger delivery of goods to stay on
the team. The faculty OF the A. & NJ.
College says that athletics are for the
students. There is no such thing as
professionalism at A. and NJ. College
and the man who represents the Texas
Aggies has to make passing grade In
two-thirds OF his work. And no fav-
oritism is shown the athletes. Coach
Moran lectures just as much about the
necessities of bringing up the class
work as he does on the fine points Of
the game. And the boys frown down
on the man who is kept out Of the
game by his failure to pass in his
work. A. & M. students are busy
boys. Their working hours number
fifteen per day and there is no place at
the College for an idler.
This years BASEBALL team is a dis
tinct disappointment to Coach Moran
and the fans and why? Ali because
five of the best men on the team
have "hunked" out, failed in their
class work, and are not eligible. But
no pressure is brought to bear to per-
NIT of their participating in the games.
IF they can't deliver the goods in the
class room, let them stay of the ath-
letic fields" say the boys and the boys
win.
Charlie Moran deserves a lot Of
credit for the work he has done at
the A. & NJ College. He has no funds
at his disposal. If the games don't pay
it's up to the athletic association to
meet the bills. Not one cent has ever
been set aside for his department and
yet he has the best college athletic
grounds in the State, good gymnasi-
um and grandstand. And it's being
paid for by carnivals, athletic tourna-
ments and popular subscriptions. He
/ had the nerve to start the work and
he has the enthusiasm to keep at it.
Six days of the week you can find
Charlie Moran driving a scraper, dig
ging a ditch or doing some other kind
of manual labor at the athletic grounds
work which he is not supposed to do,
and for which he receives not one
cent. But the records of each season
in baseball, track, basket ball and foot
ball are goods ones and Moran feels
that he is repaid for his work.

New Buildings At A. & N.

y With the completion OF the new
5000, 900 main building, the 100000
mess hall, and the $4,000 Y. NJ. c. A.
building, the A. and NJ. College will
have three of the most handsome pub
lie buildings in Texas. Work on the
main building Is being rushed more
rapidly than on the other structures.
The mess hall construction has been
delayed seriously by the failure to
receive shipments of steel. All the
steel has arrived, however, and this
building soon will be completed. In
fact it is expected that the roof Will
be on by commencement. The new
mess hall, which has been named the
Bernard Sbisa Hall, In honor OF b.
Sbisa, head of the subsistence depart
ment. will be fireproof Another dis
tinctive feature is that 1t will be fly
proof. Every step has been taken to
insure proper ventilation and santa
ton. Accommodation for 1900 cadets
will be provided.
The new main building will be by
far the most handsome structure on
the campus. Constructed of rein
forced concrete with gray brick, Its
brass dome will stand head and
l. shoulders" above all other A. and NJ
Y structures. The administrative officers
will be housed there and classrooms
win be provided for mathematics
English, and history departments.

The Y. M. c. A. building, which Is
being erected by the alumni Of the
college, will add materially to the
comfort and pleasure of the cadets.
The building will be equipped with
reading rooms, rooms for class meet
ings, etc., and every kind Of whole
some amusement will be provided.
Failure to secure brick is holding up
the work on this building for the time
being.

At no time in its history has the
"A. and M. College enjoyed such
rapid yet healthy growth as has been
its portion during the administration
OF Col. r. T. Miner as president.
Since September, 1908, when Colonel
Miner took over the reins OF the col
lege, the attendance has practically
doubled; new branches of study have
been Incorporated into the curricu-
lum; physical conditions at the col
lege have been bettered and greatly
improved and the entire tone of the
college raised by several degrees.
Those were troubulous times when
Colonel Miner retired as member Of
the board OF directors and entered the
Office of the presidency of the insti-
tuition. And it took Just such a man
,aA him, lovable, tender, solicitous
about the welfare Of each student and
each instructor, to dissipate the bad
feeling that existed, in word, to
soothe the troubled waters.
But Colonel Miner Is a builder and
a doer and the slogan Of his admins
tration has ever been More students,
better students; more buildings, better
buildings; more equipment, better
/ equipment; and (accent this please)
better work" With such slogan on
the masthead of the presidents boat
what could the old school do but grow
and prosper?
When President Miner began his
administration the College was not
caring for the farmers of the State
She was educating her sons, true
enough, but doing nothing to better
farming conditions. Establish an ex-
sion department" said the President,
"and convey the college to the farm
ers." Then he demanded demonstra-
ton trains. The establishment OF a
department Of highway engineering,
the establishment OF a school to In
struct along lines Of cotton CHASING
and farm terracing, followed. Last
year he signed a contract whereby
demonstration agents OF the Federal
department of agriculture were placed
in cooperation with the A. & NJ. ex-
tension department. All these things
and many more did he and he has
plans yet for the broadening OF the
work OF the institution. To make 1t
more OF a farmers school. To in
I crease its efficiency in all departmets.
1t has been an era of building, has
this administration, and an era of good
Now the main building and mess hall
are under construction. The electri-
cal engineering building, the steam
plant, Miner. Leggett and Mitchell
halls, all modern structures, have
been put up during his term.
In 1876. when the A. g. NJ. College
was established with Major Cartwright
as President, the College had an en-
rollment OF 100 students, In 1908,
when Colonel Miner became Presi-
dent, there were 645 students. He
began an active campaign to increase
the enrolment and the next year
there we're S54 students. The follow
ing year 1880 were enrolled; then ll29
this year there are 1913 names on the
roll.
Any student, any instructor or
other employ OF the College always
feels at liberty to take their prob
lens to Colonel Miner. They End In
him a kindly, sympathetic listener and
a counsellor OF much wisdom. The
door of his office is open to every stu

"And when have you assumed the pre-.

ply. "This young man Holton was in

full close of this war;
$50 this is your decision 2" inquired
another voice.
Those are my orders and they are
final"
Holton, trembling like q leaf, his
mouth hanging open, drank in the
words as a drowning man drinks in
his last breath of air. He could hard.
~ credit his senses.
Here. after night Of aimless
stumbling through the blackness and
through the rain, he had CHANGED upon
the very place Of all places where in
formation most valuable to his coun.
try's success was to be obtained.
The voices had fallen to hum and.
strain his ears as he would, he could
catch no more than fragmentary sen.
fences. Some one went out at the
door, and presently the sound Of
horses hoofs was heard on the shell
driveway. Three men departed, and
then Holton heard the scraping of
chairs and the rattle of glasses, as
though those that remained were pre-.
pairing to spend some further time in
their present quarters.
Holton having put on his shoes, was
on the point Of stealing into the hall
and out by the door when he decided
that this, exposing him as it would to
detection, was not the wise course. So
he turned back into the room, purpos-
Ing to open window.
AS his hand touched the catch he
was startled by sudden blaze Of light
and voice.
well. sir. what are you doing
here?
He turned to confront the young
woman he loved.

A Close Call.

A Close Call.
Holton's first instinct was to utter
the girls name; but flashing second
thought came to his rescue, and he
broke into a volley of Spanish ejacu.
lations. As he went on she stood 70.
garding him fixedly. and finally. seeing
peculiar expression settle upon her
wonderful face, he paused.
Mr.. Holton!" Her voice was low,
almost cultural.
Holton sprang toward her.
Miss La Tossa-Ranee!" His voice,
too, was low. quivering with emotion.
She stepped back, and. pointing her
finger at him. repeated with blazing
eyes her first question.
What are you doing here?" Then
she stopped and looked at him. DO
you realize what you have done?"
She reached up hastily and extin-
guished the lamp she had lighted.
"Mr. Holton." she continued, as the
young officer stood silently regarding
her. have you truly no desire to
live?"

He declares that in no case was there a failure
to cure. He also reports that the remedy is
harmless and that it causes but slight incon-
venience. The majority of patients show
symptoms of Improvement Immediately and
develop ravenous hunger.
Patients that are able to work at the time
they take treatment continue their employ

''After the success achieved | should no
longer think of treating a pulmonary con-
sumptive otherwise han with the friedman
remedy"
Dr.. Karfunkle also reports that cases of
s~crofula and eczema respond almost instant
aneously to the friedman remedy.
DR.. Karfunkle further says of the remedy:
"To be sure, success has attained here and
there with various methods of treatment in
tuberculosis therapy, but there is no method
which like this when properly applied practi-
cally never fails Qeaving out of consideration

asm, but the duly recognized, successfully

principle for human tuberculosis.

possible determination of the disease. He
said:
"But the second side of the Friedman ex-
pertinent seems even more magnificent to
me, viz, the incubation, for although it is a
magnificent accomplishment to cure tubercu-
losis c~onsumptives, it is still more magnificent
to be able to prevent contracting tuberculosis
and perhaps to Danish it from the world. 1t
is really a fact that small pox has practically
disappeared owing to vaccination. at least in
Germany, where it is practiced regularly.
No Reaction Observed
'The Friedman mmunization is more
significant than vaccination. By means of
the latter a species of smallpox, even though
weakened, is inoculated. The sickness was
formerly more serious when we vaccinated
from arm to arm, by which means sometimes
quite sick spells and Inflammation arose, which
is no longer the case. On the contrary, the
friedman injections do not, generally speak
ing, cause any reaction in children, only small,
hard spots under the skin. but no sickness.
This is certainly an advantage over vacci-
nation"
DR.. Heyman, who p~refsces his remarks
with the statement that he at first looked on
the friedman remedy with considerable
skepticism on account of his experiences with
many other so-called consumption remedies,
declares that after two years of experiment
ing with this cure. he is glad to add his testi-
monial to its curative possibilities. He r~ccites
some very remarkable cures under this treat
ment.

Exhibit to Visit Nevada in April for
Benefit of Nevada Wool Growers
Sheep travelling in a standard Pull
man car will be one Of the features of the
big itinerant exhibit to visit Nevada in
April under the auspices of the National
Woo! Warehouse & Storage Company
for the benefit of the woolgrowers of
the West.
The car will be a demonstration of
every angle Of the wool industry. In
1t will be shown products of every va
riety marketable and the uses to which
they are put. An especial effort will
be made to bring the lessons down to
the simplest terms. To show what
shrinkage means, samples of the shrunk
and unshrunk product will be shown
side by side. Oombed and carded woods
will be exhibited in many varieties. The
exhibit is for the purpose Of teaching
by the simplest methods the necessity
for breeding that class of animal which
gives the best product and for packing
wool in such a way that it can be mar
keted TO the best advantage.
The car it is announced will contain
many .'horrible examples" Some of
the sheep will be picked members Of the
genus scrub" so that the onlooker
can see at a glance the disadvantage of
breeding this species of animal. First
class animals. @. finest breed will be

trast even more noticeable. The demon
