TO THE MEN OF COMPANY A
Men of "A" Company, I wish to
express in this small way, my
thanks for the way you have work-
ed this term. There have been
long, dragging drill periods when
our hands were cold, and we could
hardly handle a rifle, but through
it all I have heard no grumbling.
Let's forget about the last sem-
ester and the defeat it brought lis
and look forward to spring when
there will be another chance to re-
move the "Excellent" banner from
"B" Company's guidon.
Fellows, work as a unit as you
have this semester and "B" Com-
pany will not have a chance next
spring. I appreciate the efforts of
every one in "A" Company and
will always be for the one,and only
company for me.
"On with "A" Company."
LEROY BKARD.
FINE ARTS CLUB
The Fine Arts Club held its reg-
ular meeting last Wednesday even-
ing at seven o'clock. Owing to the
fact that there has been so much
sickness, a representative audience
of students and music lovers was
not present. We are putting on a
campaign for members and hope to
arouse interest which will result
in the biggest and best Fine Arts
Club that Tarleton has ever had.
You folks who love music come out
to our Wednesday evening recit-
als, We will show you what real
"Hospitality is and will endeavor to
entertain you. The following pro-
gram was given last week:
Piano—Two Larks
Leseretzsky
Carl Brumbelow
Vocal—All For You Wood
Elsie Wilson
Piano—Waltz In A Flat Chopin
Elaine Towusend
Vocal—Out of the Dusk Lee
Estelle Terry
Piano—Impromptu in B Flat
Shubert
Carl Brumbelow
Each week programs will be
given and we will end our year's
work with two graduating recitals,
one by Miss Zeta Wall, and one by
Carl Brumbelow; both being piano
programs. Carl, by the way, will
be the first boy in the history of
this college to graduate in music.
t HERE and THERE t
4- +
Well, here we are starting an
other term; now is the best time to
get started right.
Many students have registered
their last time in Tarleton. How
about it?
There are several diplomas de-
pending on the next few days
work.
We are sorry that so many stu-
dents are leaving, and we wish
them well in their pursuit of liveli-
hood.
The Tarleton players presented
"Dawn" at the Majestic Monday
night.
The Colonel had a date Sunday
night.
Powell is still wondering if he
passed German.
Cage says he can appreciate his
J-Tac now.
We wonder what was the matter
with "Little Willie" Monday *at
at drill.
Several of the boys have talked
of going to South America; talked
is all, however.
Fish Stephen, another product of
Winters, is going through the
usual routine of a freshman.
Several students who have at
tended Tarleton before arc regis-
tering for this term.
Wonder why they call Harry
"Sergeant;" he doesn't wear chey-
rons.
The Plowboys showed the Coy-
otes up Saturday- night.
First Senior: "What does ossifi-
cation mean?"
Second Senior: "I suppose it
means that you have made an oss
of yourself."
The Annual staff is,well repre-
sented on the Senior editiqn J-Tac
staff.
The Fort is losing several mem-
bers, but their places are being
taken by others who wish to live
where it is quiet.
Miss Mahan knows how to get
material for the J-Tac.
\\. J. Miller, former professor of
Sociology here, paid us a visit last
■\\ L'CK.
Hamlet, a Shakespearean char-
acter, has been the most talked
about young man on the campus
'ately.
"We wonder how it feels to be a
dignified Senior."—Taken from the
"Here and There" column of the
Senior edition of last year. We
know now; we hope we graduate.
As a passing remark, we men-
tion the fact that there are several
who did not pass Senior English.
Track men, see "Fish "Mattox
or Spearman, who have broken all
records for the quarter. They can
give you some good tips 011 train-
ing.
The Senior Class Memorial com-
mittee reports that there are two
main suggestions. The gift will
likely be seats for the campus in
form of a T, or lights for the new
driveway and campus.
The D. D. D. Club was entertain-
ed by Miss Grace Wickline last
Friday evening at her home.
The Senior class is already plan-
ning to leave a class memorial.
We have exactly four and one-
half months in which to finish our
work and receive our diplamas;
then we must leave and let those
who are now little juniors take our
place.—Such is evolution.

'TIS NOT TARLETON, 'TIS YOU
When Tarleton seems full of trou-
ble and everything up side down,
When in your studies your smile
turns into a frown;
If you just stop and reason you'll
find in a'moment or two,
"fis not the school that needs ad-
justing
My dear Tarletonlte, 'tis you.
When the gang seems pepless and
the game seems weak;
Then you start fault finding-, trou-
ble with the team you seek;
Pause a moment, stop and think,
take of them a broader view,
For 'tis not the team that needs
changing,
My dear friend, 'tis you.
THE TARLETON OF TOMOR-
ROW
What does the future hold for
Tarleton ? When we try to imag-
ine what Tarleton will be in the
future, what conclusion do we
come to? Think of Tarleton's pro-
gress in the last few years. Will
she still move forward, or will she
decline ?
The progress of Tarleton de-
pends upon the administration and
upon the student body. We say
the student body, but the Senior
class bears more responsibility
than all other classes and orga-
nizations combined. The Senior
class has in its ower to say wheth-
er or not Tarleton continues to
grow, for the activities, conduct,
and record of each graduating
class either raises or lowers the
standards of the institution.
Let up raise the veil of the fu-
ture and gaze at the Tarleton of
tomorrow. We want to see a larg-
er compus improved1 to the highest
possible measure; we want to see
construction of new buildings and
a larger faculty and we want to
see two more. years'curricula add-
ed. Yes, we want Tarleton to be
Texas' greatest educational insti-
tution—a Senior college with the
same distinction that she how has
as a Junior college, the largest in
the South.
The graduating classes in past
years have contributed their ef-
forts to forward Tarleton. We,
too, ean do our part, and we will.
We know that there is no college
that is better than Tarleton, and
we should strive to keep Tarleton
the best.
THREE SORTS OF US
An inquiring soul saw three men,
each cutting blocks of stone for
the same edifice.
"What are thou about?" asked
the curious one of the first work-
man.
"I am cutting stone" he he re-
plied.
"What doest thou?" the strang-
er asked the second.
"I am making wages," he said.
"And thou ?" inquired the curi
ous of the third.
"I am making a Cathedral," he
announced.
Lo—there are three sorts of stu-
djents: the student studying just
to get his lesson, the student
studying merely for the grade re-
ceived, the student studying to im-
prove and broaden his mind.
Which sort of a pupil are you ?
TOP OFTHE WORLD
THE GIRLS' RIFLE TEAM
We received the targets from
the George Washington University
Girls' Team Friday, and their
score was 97. Now that is what
we have to work against, which
means that some of our first year
g'irls must work hard. We regret
that some of our past targets have
not been so good as they should
have been; but we must strive to
attain the possibility of bettering-
the score with G. W. U., next
Month.
However, we do not wish .to
make the impression that all we
do is work. We were very dis-
appointed last week when the reg-
istrar canceled our party date. We
had planned a theatre party at the
Worth Theatre for Saturday night,
but it was too cold for such a trip.
We hope to have this Fort Worth
party soon. We will be accom-
panied by the cadet officers.
The girls on this hall are sad be-
cause so many of our members are
leaving, Lemoine has already gone.
She decided to go to C, I. A. We
hope she has a successful school
term.
Carrie is leaving us for home.
Pauline is leaving for various
and sundry reasons. We hope she
intends coming' to see us some
time.
Oats just can't be persuaded to
stay any longer. There must be a
very strong attraction for. her in
Megargel. The P. I. C. will be
broken up, and we don't know who
will create excitement on our hall.
Mr. and Mrs. DuBose arrived to-
take her home.
Margaret was delightfully sur-
prised Friday when her mother
and friend, Dorothy, came to see
her.
We are very glad to have two
new members on our hall; Sadie
Scott and Willie Neale Warren
from Big Spring.
Leta was attracted to Cross
Plains this week-end for various
reasons.
We are glad the Plowboys de -
feated the Weatherford Coyotes
Saturday night. Come on Plow-
boys, and do it again, for we know
you can!
ADVICE FROM A DORMITORY
GIRL
The "dump" has been the scene
of many changes during the past
week. Miss Gough has been act-
ing as our matron while Mrs.
Moody is away; and although we
are glad to have Miss Gough with
us, we miiss Mrs. Moody very much.
Within the last few days several
new girls have come to live with
us, and we are very glad to wel-
come them into our home. Girls,
we know you will be terribly
homesick for the first few days,
because we were too. However,
don't give up, but just keep right
on, and you will get over it sooner
than one would think.
We regret to lose so many of the
old girls. Quite a number are
quitting tQ go to other schools, but
a large number of them are quit-
ting school entirely. Most of them
have some special reason, however.
One hates to hear of a girl's stop-
ping just because she wants to; for
she is making a grave mistake.
We only hope that those who are
doing this will decide to come back
and finish the year's work. It is
very easy at this time of the year
for one to become discouraged,
but the fellow who keeps on, ever
striving to obtain his goal, is the
one who really succeeds, after all,
AUNT PEARL'S PLACE
The second semester finds us
with two new members, Freshmen
Neiil and Hill from Santa Anna
Neili visited the Dump Sunday
night and now says that he knows
that he is going to like Tarleton.
John Corry and "Beans" Kitley
are now fullfledged members of
O.ur boarding house. We are glad
for them to move in, even if they
are upperclassmen and non-com-
missioned officers.
Frankie Fleming and Ignatz
Hughes have moved across the
street; but their smiling- counten-
ances always appear at chow time,
and why not? Who could resist
Aunt Pearl's deficious feeds ?
We sure hated to see Leonard
Fleming leave, for he was one of
our best upperclassmen.
We are expecting "Red" Pearce
to be with us again in a few days.
We Miss Leonard, and hope that
he will visit us often.
For the benefit of radio fans we
have installed a broadcasting sta-
tion on the roofgarden of our
boarding house, and we get a dis-
tance of three- or four blocks in
good weather conditions. We get
requests from every part of the
house to sign off.
As this is all the news except
that Kitley got a new pair of
shoes and Hughes a haircut, we
will sign off.
HOME ECONOMICS CLUB
We have not been as inactive as
we have been silent. The club
meets on the regular days and
there is always an interesting pro-
gram rendered.
At our last meeting Miss Trick-
ey made a very interesting talk.
She told us many thrilling things
(about New York, things that every
girl is interested in. We were also
delighted in having Alesa read for
us. We need to have more of the
members present to help us- enjoy
these programs.
Listen, girls, we are going to
have a banquet; come to the meet-
ing Thursday, January 31, and
help us set the date.
