Lower Prices
Even though prices are lower than for
several seasons, the economy of Kuppen-
heimer good clothes is based on quality rath-
er than on price. Worthy quality in all de-
tails—style, fit, fabric and tailoring, is as-
surance of real economy—the economy of
long service and lasting satisfaction.

Miss Juanita Harper. '24, is now a
Pi Beta Phi piedge at the University of
Nebraska.
Monday afternoon from 4 to 6 the
Cramner Ciub entertained with an in-
formai reception at Autry House. Mrs.
Biake and Mr. Masterson were there
welcoming new students and showing
them the toveiy new place that has
been erected for the use of the stu-
dents. Punch was served during the
afternoon and a large number of old
and new students and town people
were present.
Invitations have been issued to the
annual party given to the new girls
by the Elizabeth Baldwin and Pallas
Athene Literary societies. It Is to be
held Friday afternoon in tl^e commons.
This year it will be an Informal recep-
tion and both old and new girls are
requested to come at four and stay
until six.
SAY FOLKS.
The Rice Bible class of ..the Second
Presbyterian Church is going strong.
It Is not from a matter of habit that
these new members are coming—most
of us have lost the habtt—and as far
as principle is concerned, the Rice stu-
dents as a whole are not overburden-
ed with consciences, and we are Rice
students. But we are gathering on
Sunday mornings at 10 o'clock because
we come once, get interested and like
it. Presbyterians, rally around and
visit us once and if we don't interest
you, go elsewhere.
On the evening of October 2 at the
First Christian Church a fellowship
supper was given in honor of the Rice
students. Tom Moore presided and a
program of talks and songs was given.
There were several very clever songs
about Seniors, Juniors, Sophomores
and Freshmen which may be incor-
porated as Rice's own. Those taking
part on the program were Messrs. Joe
Allen, George Cunyus, John Douglass,
James West, R. P. Lolier, Misses Bes-
sie May Rogers, Irene Simpson, Pot
zein Harian and Elizabeth Buck.
The Tattiers' Club had the honor of
being the first to entertain in the new
Community House, when they gave in-
formal tea there Thursday afternoon in
honor of the new girls.
The Tattler "T" was suspended over
the beautiful fireplace at one end of
the room, while at the other was
placed the attractively decorated table
containing the mints, nuts and sand-
wiches. The colors of the club were
featured In the yellow flowers, which
were placed everywhere in the spac-
ious hall. Ices and cake were served
on plates decorated with the Autry
House shield. Besides the active mem-
bers of the club, which include Misses
Virginia Atwell, Anah Marie t.eland
Louise Moore, Bessie Smith, Catherine
Dutton, Ellen Farrar, Mary Mackenzie,
Dorothy Ratcliff, Marjorie North, Mil
dred Miller and Sidney Swett, the
guests, who numbered about thirty,
were received and entertained also by
the alumnae members—Misses Mary
Clarke Weir, Annie B. Frost, Annie
Beth Lockett, Marie Louise Hogg. Cad
Wortham, Sara McAshan, Estelle
Streetman, Mrs. Leroy Bell and their
new pledge, Katy Ruth Strieker.

HOWARD PAYNE SCORES
AGAINST TEXAS AGGiES
A. & M. defeated Howard Payne
Friday at College Station in the first
game of the season by the score of
14 to 7. The jinx which has operated
against Aggie opponents was broken,
and for the first time in two years a
foreign eleven made a touchdown on
Kyle Field.
Howard Payne was the only team
that was able to cross the Longhorn
goal line in 1920. The other six points
scored against them came from field
goals.
R
St. Paut'e Methodtot Church—St.
Paul's Rice Club had an attendance
of eighty last Sunday. If you have
not been attending Sunday Schooi
somewhere else, we should like for
you to help bring the attendance up
to one hundred this month.
Temple Beth )*r<e)—Day of Atone-
ment: Services on Tuesday, October
11, will be at 7:30 p. m.; subject, "The
Prayer for Life," and on Wednesday,
October 12, at 10 a. m., subject "The
Mystery of Suffering."
"THEY SHALL WOT PAM."
The following was clipped from
"Coionei Mayfield's Weekly" oi last
week, and as it shows the right spirit,
it is worth its space in The Thresher
coiumns:
Lissen, old Rice Institute boys, if
you beat A. & M. this year ! wiii give
you the biggest and grandest barbecue
ever given in Harris County.
We will have a genera! celebration.
We wiii barbecue a number of beeves
and A. AM.'s goat, and we wtU have
speeches by a number of notables, in-
cluding myself, which means you wiii
have a wonderfui time, and, further-
more, we wil! barbecue the football
that A. & M. brings along and I will
eat it. It won't hurt me—I eat at one
of these downtown restaurants.
I want to see you trim oid A. & M. to
a queen's taste this year. I am an ex
A. & M.-er. I left there early one
spring. The president called me into
his office one day and said several
trains left there each day and suggest-
ed I take one of them. I wouldn't ar-
gue with him. Just for that I want to
see you dadgum boys hang it all over
A. & M. this year.
Hang this sign upon your goal:
"They Shall Not Pass," and break up
every forward movement that Bibie
and his eleven disciples attempt.
Young gentiemen of the Rice Insti-
tute, Dr. Lovett and Mr. Arbuckle, with
the love of Rice Institute in my heart
and love of barbecue In my stummlck,
I pledge you the grandest feast ever
heid on the coastal plains of Texas if
you defeat old A. & M.
Provided—
I can induce J. J. Settegast, Jr., that
prince of good fellows, that noble cat-
tleman, to donate one cow to this
cause.
Mr. Settegast, please stand up; will
you supply the cow?
The answer is, "1 will."
Mr. Bassett Blakely, one of our most
distinguished countrymen, with accent
on the "country," will you donate a
cow?
The answer is, "More bull. "
I will steal a few shpats. It won't
hurt my conscience—1 have been a
newspaper man all of my life.
Now, boys, up and at 'em.

Her escort died from the shock.
