F. F. A. NEWS
By Jimmy Carroll
The F. F. A. boys enjoyed a very
fine Christmas. It-'seems every-
one’s eyes were about the size of
thety- stomach with the exception
of 1‘Buck” Baker. At least he
was not in school Thesday after
the holidays. The cause may have
been too much eats. How ahout
that Buck ?
Roy Casey, who won a calf from
the scramble in Houston last year,
has a chance to win a $2,000
scholarship at A. & M., if he ,s
among the top 10 per cent of the
boys. This will he at the Hous-
ton Fat Stock Show, lie also has
a chance 'of $ 100 reward given
awn*'. Roy wilL take his calf,
which he won in tire scramble anil
which- he.is feeding qul, to Hous,
ton to be shown there at the sjiow
The V. A. hoys are planning on
going to one of the three fat stock
shows in the staae, ft probably
will he the show at San Antonio.
Would like for all ansoriiaW
members to let Robert kngw
whether they are going or not.
Mr. Humphrey has been .teach-
ing us about the housing of" live-
stock, so winter must have hit. By
the looks of the weather outside I
kinda think it has hit and knocked
a double home run.
. HOLIDAYS ARE OVER
Yes, (he holidays are over for
the students of^ Fairfield school
and now we are back in school ret-
ting ready for raid-term exams.
Everyone seems to have enjoyed
