!a a recent communication from
Tarsus, Asia Minor, whoro Paul F.
Bobb, '20, it stationed, a report waa
given of the work done by St. Paul's
College daring the hot summer
months. The school waa left with
over 100 boys on their hands who
were unable to go home during the
summer, so they started a summer
school and the boys worked haM a
day and studied the other half. The
machine shop in the school waa made
possible by a gift from Bice students
who sent over money to help the
school at the request of Paul Bobb.
Following is a pasasge from the re-
port, being self-explanatory:
"The machine ship is probably now
the best in Cicilia. It is self-support-
ing although business is at its dullest.
We are very grateful to various
friends who have made the trade work
possible."

R. O. T. C. MAYBE
ESTABLISHED AT
THE INSTITUTE
—a—
News was received from San An-
tonio this week that Lieutenant-Col-
one) A. S. Williams has been ordered
to Houston to investigate the advisi-
bitity of establishing a reserve offi-
cers training corps at Rice. It is said
that Colonel Williams will interview
President Lovett concerning the mat-
ter. Colonel Williams is in charge of
the reserve officers training corps ac-
tivities in the eighth corps area.
Varied and vehemous have been the
sentiments expressed on the campus
about the prospect of the R. 0. T. C.
Suggestions have been made by many,
however, that Colonel Williams inter-
view the students about "the advisa-
bility of establishing the corps at
Rice"—at any rate the Colonel would
last only a short time under the storm
of protests that would ensue should
he mention the matter to the students.

fT^HE CO-OP has announced
± through the Thresher that
it is handling quite a com-
plete stock of goods that are
suitable for Christmas gifts ard
that a great deal of time may
be saved in Christmas shopping
by a five-minute visit to the
Co-Op. Among the articles car-
ried in stock at this time a.*e
pennants, pillows, fountain pens,
pencils with Rice seals, all sorts
of Rice rings, pins and other
jewelry, along with other things
that are very fitting for Christ-
mas presents.

ON MY FRECKLES.
—a—*
When I pick up a looking-glass so
clear;
And gaze upon the many freckles
there, ^
I always wish these specks were dol-
lars dear,
For then my pa would be a million-
aire.
But as it is, no comfort do they bring;
I know so well their value, all too
small,
In spite of Stillman's Freckle Cream—
they cling,
And never seem to fade or budge at
all.
In satins fine and silks! of colors
bright,
I filmy tulle across my shoulders
drape,
And still my freckles do display by
night,
For more than tulle it takes to hide
their shape.
If you of freckles would information
get-
Just come to me for I am .
(Guess who? She is the poetess.)

He: Would you care to go to the
Hop Saturday night?
She: Why, I'd be delighted!
He: Well, would you buy your tick-
ets from me? Our club is raising a
little money.

NOTICE.
A few days before the game with
A. & M., two Rice-A. & M. penants
were voluntarily loaned the school to
decorate the Mess Hall. They were
allowed to remain there for several
days after the game, when someone
thoughtlessly removed them for some
unknown reason. These* penants are
much prized by the students who
loaned them, and it seems only fair
that they should be returned. If any-
body has seen, or knows anything at
all as to the whereabouts of these
penants, they will confer a great favor
on the owners by giving any such in-
formation to E. R. Duggan, president
of the Students' Association. I
Y.M.C.A. HOLDS
MEETING SUNDAY
IN AUTRY HOUSE
At a mooting of the Y. M. C. A.
held in the Autry House Sunday af
temoon, the budget for the year waa
fixed and many other matters of im-
portance to the organization wore dis-
cussed and settled. The cabinet had
planned to have a week-end trip to
Galveston or Kama in order that more
time might be given for discussion
of vital issues. The trip was called
off due to weather conditions and the
meeting was held in Autry House.
The cabinet has been thoroughly
organized and every department is
ready to do more work than it has
ever done in Bice before. The most
important matter discussed in the
meeting was the campaign for mem-
bership and funds. The time for the
campaign is late this year, due to
several interruptions that have oc-
curred, but the active work of signing
up members and securing funds will
be begun immediately after the
Christmas holidays.
The budget was fixed by the cabinet
at $650 for the year, this sum being
divided among many different heads
including the social work, funds for
Paul Bobb's shop in Asia Minor, a
loan fund for a summer camp, and
several other important departments
of the Y. It is thought that this sum
will be subscribed by the students in
a short time provided that an active
campaign for the funds is carried on.
Each organization in Rice will be
asked to do its share in promoting
the campaign and seeing that each of
its members subscribe to the fund.
The exact dates for the campaign
will be announced after the holidays,
but it is thought that Friday, January
13. wilt be the initial day of the cam-
paign which will last for only two or
three days.
GLEE CLUB IS
SOON TO BE
LAUNCHED
R
Enthusiastic plans for a Rice Glee
Club or vocal organization will be
completed at a meeting which will
probably be held in the Commons to-
night. The club will really consist
of a double quartet or r<ctette. Its
sociations and traditions "which have
been generated in other schools by the
singing of college songs, and he be
lieves that the formation of the oc-
tette will result in the introduction
membership will be limited and places
will be secured through tiy-outs,
Frashmen being particularly invited
to come out in full numbers for this
activity.
The octette is planning an interest-
ing and fruitful year. Programs will
be put on in Houston early in the
spring, and later a trip will be made
if a satisfactory schedule can be ar-
ranged. The Joy Spreaders orchestra
will probably go along on the trip,
and an entertaining performance is
guaranteed. R. M. Winnsborough,
business manager, is making an at-
tractive proposition to organizations
wishing to stage the Rice singers.
Dean Caldwell has expressed his
satisfaction at the movement, and
is willing to lend full faculty support.
In his address at the College Nite af-
fair, Dr. Caldwell mentioned the as-
and singing of Rice songs by the stu-
dent body. A director will be secured
after Christmas.
The octette as now organized con-
sists of Randall and Humason at first
tenor; Robertson and probably Spring-
all at second tenor; McGee at bari-
tone; Hathom and Bushong at bass.
None of these positions are "cinched"
however, and try-outs will be wel-
comed. No name for the club has
yet been decided on, but the genera!
suggestion is to have some other name
than the "Rice Glee Club."
