They carried off the honors of the year because in the class editions of the ,luniorette the fish Won first place-then in 1925 when time came to organize the senior class for the year it seemed that all the fish of the year before had returned. We started out at the first of the year with fifty-one members but through various misfortunes we lost many and at the end of the year we had only twenty-eight. The seniors play a very important part in the activities of the school, both in the athletics and the literary part of the work. Besides having the majority in the football, basketball and baseball squads the Bosque and Juniorette staffs were made up largely of seniors. We have many memories that we cherish among which are: Sept. 29, 1924, when We entered school, the day when the rings were received and above all the day when we were granted the diplomas. The days we spent in Meridian College as seniors have been indeed happy ones and the day that we leave M. C. as students will be a sad one for it is then that we give up the thing that we love. Z.-.

DRAHN FOSTER DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS Drahn Foster is a graduate of South- western University and served three years as assistant coach at Meridian Col- lege. He is a former student of Meridian and has served on athletic teams here. Although he was deprived of a letter in college his natural ability and earnest- ness make him an excellent coach. CLAUDE HALLMARK FOOTBALL CAPTAIN In Hallmark the Cougars had a leader with all the stuff that goes to make a man a natural captain. Besides being one of the greatest football players Meridian ever had he had the natural leadership and the power to instill into his team mates the Cougar spirit. Hawlie has served three years in the Cougar uniform and has another to go. We look forward to a great year for this man next year. l I U X X - Xp u Me B05QUf9fQQE5a W J i Q. 4' 'J l' J AUX ,, I 1' gi v-'ffif Wh Football of 1924 Along about the l.5th of September, 1924, any one passing by the campus of M. C. could have seen a group of earnest faced men preparing ,for one of the hardest grinds that an athlete of old M. C. has been called upon to bear in a good many years. By the time that the Training Camp had come to a close there were about twenty boys that were prepared for the schedule. The first game of the year was with Dallas U. on the 27th of September. From the start it was apparent that there was a sure enough battle. The first half ended in a scorelesstie. With the opening of the second half Dallas U. d opene up an overhead attack that netted them two touchdowns. The game ended 12 to 0. OieB05QUEf925rf 1 X i ww ' , . . X.. X 41, ,,',, 'I 'I 'ffgfl , I Wk, On the 3rd of October M. C. was host to Hillsboro J. C. And b-efore the afternoon had worn off M. C. had showed her superiority. The final score being 21 to 0. I The Cougars journeyed up to North Texas and met that fast and heavy squad of Aggies. The score does not show the fight as it really was. Aggies 19, M. C. 6. ' The next game was with our old rival, Clifton College. The town, as well as the student body, moved to Clifton for the afternoon. As all foregoing games have been hard fought this one was no exception. As the sun sank behind the western horizon it saw the Maroon and White leave that field with the big end of the score. Cougars 37, Cats 0. The game with Thorp Springs was only a light workout for the Cougars. Using only straight football and giving every man on the squad a chance to show his wares M. C. came off victorious 85 to 0. On the 31st day of October saw one of the best looking groups of Junior College teams that had been on our field this year. But with a running, pass- ing, and plunging attack the Westminister Wildcats were not able to withstand the onslaught of the Cougars, they left the field with the small end of a 29 to 0 score. The 11th of November witnessed a .double celebration in M. C. One was a national holiday and the other was the celebration and getting revenge over the Weatherford College Coyotes with a 21 to O score. The Cougars journeyed out to Abilene on the 17th day of November to do battle with the McMurray Indians. Notwithstanding the high altitude and hard trip the Cougars nosed out a 7 to 3 victory. The 27th of November saw the two old foes get together once more. It was a hard fought game and although the Cougars were forced to accept the small end of the score it is an unwritten story of the fight displayed against the heavier and more experienced team. The final outcome was 21 to 6 in John Tarleton's favor. 1 Mc HUSQUQZQQSA '1' ,lf XY Furs CARLTON Guard Although playing for the first time on the Cougar squad, t'Fat1 proved himself a tower of strength in many a game. Sustaining a badly sprained ankle in an early season contest, he was considerably handicapped in ,some of the later games. For a Iran of his bulk he is exceptionally fast on his feet, and his opponents at the guard position found invariably that he was well nigh immovable on the defense. C,'.rT,x-IN-ELECT TQ C. HALLMARK Half Back HT. C. is popular not only for his athletic ability, but for his sterling personality. For sheer driving force in attacking an opponent's line with the ball, he has few peers and prob- ably not a superior in the Junior Col- lege Conference. His first year in col- lege football, he has proven that he is exceptionally Well grounded in the fundamentals of the game, uses his head, and bids fair to be an outstand- ing grid star in the state. During the season of 1924 no team in the confer- ence Was successful in completely stop- ping him. CLAYTON I'IANNA Tackle Though light for his position, every opponent during the year Will testify to H1nna's gameness and aggressive- ness. For all round sterling Worth in the line, for his ability to be in on every play, for his flying leaps through the line to stop a play, for his eternal grit and gameness, for his never say die spirit, Hanna will be remembered for many moons by those who knew him and saw him in action. f J ' lx 1 :Q f 9 ,' ' W hi If sr -, of .,. ar. 4 'k. time .1jf',5,,, 1...

CLAUDE MCCONNEl,L Center Mack, as he is affectionately called by those who appreciate his ever ready wit and banter, was un- questionably one of the outstanding centers in the Conference during the past season. Having played his first season last year, he came back this years resolved to master the game in every detail and make a record. This he did. In backing up the line on the defense, his equal would be hard to find. His passes were unusually ac- curate, and until he sustained a broken collar bone, toward the last of the season, was literally in every play. He was seldom down and never out. B'UDDYH BARRIER Half Back Buddy has two characteristics which endear him to all lovers of sport' in Meridian College. These are ag- gressiveness and versatility. There are many opposition players who will glady attest the power of his drives through the line. He was one of the hardest men to stop which Coach Foster had to offer. When a quarter back was needed, Buddy was always on hand and was called upon to run the team. He has unusual football sense and his work at quarter back was exceptionally 'theady and at times brilliant. RAY KING ' 4- Guard' A bulwark that was hard to move, was Ray. Dependable, in there all the time. When Goofy Mack was injured, some one had to take over the arduous duties at center. Ray was the one selected for the job, and he de- livered. Many the tough scrap our linesmen had during the fall of '24, and Ray had a most important part in most of them. L, f if -. .H Never a gamer man Wore a' football Doo LEACH Tackle The man with the fighting heart. To see Doon engage in battle royal with some of the 200 pounders that he faced all year was an inspiration. One of the smallest tackles in the Con- ference, there was no man Who fought more consistently and aggressively, who was in more plays, and who was harder ,to get out of the way than was Doc. . Doc's disposition and sterling qualities have endeared him to all those who are numbered as students in the old school. Ross LovE Half Back Having starred during the season 1923-4 for the Hillsboro High School, Ross came to us determined to do his bit. We expected much of him. He did not disappoint us. One of the fast- est big men in the state, it was noth- ing short of a revelation to see this 190 pounder skirting ends and side- stepping like a ten flat man. Many is the yard gained for the Cougars by this Hillsboro lad. No one Who saw it Will ever forget that seventy yard run for a touchdown in the Tarle- ton game. FRANKLIN GRIMES Guard uniform than Frank Grimes. There was no man on the team who played under as great a handicap as this boy. He was afflicted with a shoulder which would become completely dis- located at the slightest provocation. Playing With this handicap, sometimes with a great hard leather harness to help him, Frank was always to be de- pended upon, and many is the plung- ing back he has stopped with that game shoulder of his. , t , -- -as ---------------' 1' xv, , , I 3 ,f 1 E R 1 l 1 1 4 G L.

X, CAT EUBANKS Quarter Back One of the headiest little field gen- erals ever seen in a Cougar uniform. Despite his size, this little demon was usually in his prime when plunging the line or reeling off a sizable gain around end or- sidestepping a broken field. To see Cat with his 135 pounds of grit, backing up the line in the Tarleton game, when that quartet of 185 pound backs came hurtling through in a never ending procession, was a sight never to be forgotten. When they finally carried him off the field, too weak to stand, he had a ton of fight left. His heart never failed this little fellow. BURK TUCKER Full Back One hundred and sixty pounds of concentrated whirlwind. One of the hardest plunging backs ever to wear the Cougar uniform. He did not have a peer in the Conference in the role of backing up the line. When Tuck tackled they usually stayed tackled. Aggressive, clear headed, always fight- ing, he was one of the most valuable men on the team. Always ready for a frolic or a scrap. Who will forget the Dallas University game, when, with all the tackles either crippled or out of the game, Tuck was put in at left tackle. He not only held his own but carried the fight to his heavier opponents. JULIAN JOHNSON End Fast, unusually dependable in catch- ing passes, a hard and sure tackler, a veritable demon on the defense, valuable either at end or in the back- field. This is Judy, as the old gang knew him. Leaping high into the air, snagging the bad ones, Judy was responsible for many of the Cougars' touchdowns. When occasion demanded, he could be shifted to the backfield, and at a half back position, invariably showed that he could plunge and side- step with the best of them. Mighty few and far between were the gains around the end which this Cougar guarded. Here's a lad that has captivated the ' ! l I IJ 'la ' 4 P5 MMA Y 1 f. of V 1 , ,,,,, : av H lie' gf C iii? 31.55515 N y CAsoN SMITH End Playing his first year on the Cougars, Smitty proved himself worthy. He came to us as a running mate of Ross Love, from the Hillsboro High School. Not' a yellow spot in his whole system, game to the core, al- ways fighting, never afraid of the big- gest and fastest of them, Smitty cov- ered the ground he occupied. He has endeared himself to those who follow Cougar sports, and they will not soon forget' this lad from Hillsboro, who was constantly giving all he had every minute of the time he was in the game. W. B'. POWELL End Coryell County sent this boy to the Cougars, and well might she be proud of her son. Quiet, even tempered, al- ways trying, on the job every minute. His assignment' was a difficult one. The end position had more good-men trying for it than any other. As a consequence Dub did not play in as many quarters as some of his team- mates. When his time came he was always ready, and invariably gave his all. Dub will live long in the hearts of all who knew him. HARVEY BALLENV End , heart and admiration of the entire school and community. Stolid, quiet, sturdy, never ruffled, he won his spurs and the right to first rank. There was no uneasiness in Coach Foster's mind when Indian was on the job. Hubbard City sent him to the Cougars, and forever Meridian College owes Hubbard a debt of thanks. Her son came to Meridian and has blazed him- self a trail of glory. His popularity, his sterling personal qualities, his athletic ability, are unquestioned.

Possessed of the heart of a lion, this rangy boy didn't know the meaning of the word can't. Though light, they never came too big for him. Who will ever forget the memorable Tarfeton game of '24, when, playing at the tackle position, he threw himself in the pathway of that plunging aval- anche of beef and brawn, and smeared the works time after time? Rex is true blue and a real man from the tip of his toes to the top of his head. CHARL1:s fl.-XNDOLPH Tackle This sandy haired boy hails from Cherokee, in the rugged hills of West Texas. No less rugged and sturdy than the hills among which he roamed as a boy, Red put his whole soul into the game every time Coach Fost- er's finger beckoned him into the game. His first year of football, this lad gives promise of developing into a valuable man for anyb0dy's football club. RALPH H0sK1Ns A End No man who wore the Cougar colors during the year '24 made more prog- ress in his game than did Red Boots Hoskins. Being absolutely new at' the game, he kept plugging away, and invariably showed worlds of stuff, when called upon. Alert every minute, an adept at recovering fumbles, speedy, tough, this rangy lad is going to make his mark in the athletic world. Mighty few would be line busters ever continued on their way after Red laid his shoulder against them. His friends are numbered by those who knew him. f N Ofc EOSQUE' 925 as e K 44' K I7 fff ' f' ' 1' 2 ' ' , ,ff '. '::.f I ff.

He held,up his last year's reputation as being one of the Fighting Cougar type. We regret to lose him very much as he graduates in June. WILLIAM RINGER This man Bill was always known by the time the game was over. At forward he was a hard man to stop and few men out jumped him at center. We all believe that he has a great basketball future ahead of him and are expecting him to don a Merid- ian uniform next year. PAT C0sGRovE Irishman carried out his country's national tradition by showing his fight when he went' into a game. Although smaller than most of his opponents he played his position well. He will be back next year and should make a good showing. HARVEY BALLEXV Very few Conference forwards found a more difficult man to evade. At guard he held his ground to such an extent that they literally had to run over him for a goal. He is Captain- Elect' and every one is confident that he will be a great leader for a most promising season.

Rex made an opponent work for all that he made which is one phase of the Cougar spirit. CLAUD HALLMARK Duck demonstrated some real basketball by his cool headedness and sportsmanship. He kept the opponent on the alert by doing the unexpected. We want to see him hold down his position next year K 4 F i f I l I in 'fs QL -i - i' 'ff : 'Kr Eiiiff, . .ws , fr ' L.

Starting the season with four letter girls of last year added to the many high school stars gained from over the state, most of whom came from Waco, we expected great things of these girls and we were not disappointed for they proved themselves worthy of the praise that we now give them. l 4 s Cya H05QUElQ25 c I I I I I I I I, II II I, I I, II I If I II I II I I II it I I I II I I I I I I I I I I I I I I x I, I l K xg ' f L, R, I ,X ,f CONNIE HENDRICKS After a tryout during the first part of the season Connie developed into a valuable guard in demonstrating some unknown qualities. Although she was small, she did some excellent work in keeping her opponents from scoring and will be always remembered for playing a clean game. I ALLIE CATHEY Cathey did well wherever they placed her. Her work at guard is the most notable and while there it was an ex- ception for a forward to run anything over her. We are expecting her back next year and her fight, loyalty and love for the game should make her a valuable member. MILDRED THOMAS She came to us from Waco Hi after having established a great basketball record there. It seemed that it was her duty to holler when the ball should be passed. By her fight and ability to handle herself well her work at either jumping center or guard featured in every game. Cougarette basketball will be greatly strengthened by her return next year. MOZELLE LEACH Moses made a good captain by her co-operation with all. Her ability to play and knowledge of the game was equally as great: She did not meet a guard that successfully solved her ac- curate southpaw goal shooting and her shiftiness on foot. For two seasons she has served Cougarette athletics with heart and soul, we would rejoice in her return but she is a Senior.

Her quickness always put her in place to receive the tap-off from her jumping center, then came her accurate pass to the forward. She will be long re- membered by the opposing teams as the one who could make a game as rough as they liked it' but neverthe- less she was a sport. KATHERINE OSWALD She also came to us from Waco Hi with basketball experience. She al- ways will be remembered for her faithfulness and willing to put her best into every game. Her highest stride of play came in the second Waco Hi game in which her guard- ing featured. We want her back next year. L. C. MEHARG. B'efore the season was well under way every one began to realize that there was great improvement in this girls playing. She did this only through loyalty and hard Work which was also notable in her playing of scheduled games. Her graduation in June makes it impossible for her re- turn next year.

The first game was a runaway for the Cougars, piling up 14 runs to the opponents 2. The thrill of the game came when Ballew smaked out a home run. The second game was a slugfest, but not looking very good for the Cougars till they put over one of those much read of ninth inning rallies and took the game by a score of 14' to 13. On April 4 the C-ougars performed one of the greatest accomplishments of the season when they journeyed over to Marlin and took a game from that team of the Texas Association. This was not a conference game but it was one of the brightest lights of the season and one of which Meridian was proud. The feature of the game was the hitting of Whitlock who gleaned four hits out of five trips, one of which was a home run. I - On April 9 the Cougars continued their victorious march by tak'ng two more games from the North Texas Aggies. The pitching of Leach and Car- penter were the features of the games and at the close of the last game the Cougars had bagged two more of their conference games. Score the first day was I4 to 1 and the last day 114 to 0. On April 23, 241, Meridian went to Stephenville to engage in a battle with their old rival, John Tarleton. The first game proved very disastrous for the Cougars and the Plowboys got away with the big end ofa 9 to 3 score. The next day the Cougars came back and handed the Plowboys a defeat by com- pletely outplaying them in every phase of ihe game. Rex Love pitched con- sistent ball for the Meridian team and refeived excellent support throughout the contest. ' On May 1 and 2, Meridian was eliminated from the race for the champion- ship by the strong Decatur club. The first day saw one of the greatest pitchers' battles ever staged on the Decatur lot between Watson, Indian Ace, and Car- penter of the Cougars, but the Meridian team failed to hit when hits meant runs and they were forced to accept the small end of a 1 to 0 score. . The second day the Indians forged ahead by making 7 runs in the second inning and Meridian was never able to overcome this lead. With the excep- tion of this one bad inning the Cougars had a good day, but the Indians had a better one with a win to the tune of 10 to 4. ' o me BOSQUI? 1925 'il T. C. HALLMARK CLeft Fieldj In baseball as in football, T'. played his same consistent brand of baseball day after day. This was his first year at college baseball but he came through as we expected him to. He is a good fielder and hitter and prom- ises to be a great asset' to the team next year. JOHN SPITZER COutfielderJ When Dutch entered the game he gave the best that was in him for his team and always performed in a pleas- ing fashion. John is young in the game and with another year we expect him to make the Cougars a man to be proud of. L. LEACH fRight Fieldj Skeeter was one of the most valuable men the Cougars had, a good fielder, good hitter, and due to his speed he was the leading base thief of the team. Skeet has a love for the game and for his school and when he was called upon could always deliver the goods. W. LEACH fFirst Basel Captain No harder fighter ever donned the Cougar uniform than this mang he made the team one of the best captains that they ever had and was in there to the last. His natural position was first base, but when called on he could put up a good brand of pitching. He will be missed very much on the next year squad. - ' X 7 Ak ,... l..

He always has a mouth full of chatter and will be one of the leaders next year, SANDS fO11tfieldJ Billie Buck was a hard fighter and a Cougar in every sense of the word. He is valuable for his hitting and has caused many pitchers misery this year. When called upon he is always ready to do his bit. His loss will be felt on the next year's team. CARPENTER fPitcherJ In Carpenter we have the leading pitcher of the Conference. He is a hard worker' and has sufficient stuff to make him the terror of Junior Col- lege circles. No man on the team trained harder or did more toward building the team than did he. C. HALLMARK CShort Stopj Again we have an example of the fighting spirit of this man. Playing his third year in the Cougar uniform he demonstrated his true worth to the team. No better fielder has ever graced the Meridian diamond and with that he was a dangerous hitter. He has another year with the Cougars.

To watch this youngster work was an inspiration to his team mates. He was a hard worker and a loyal Cougar. With this year's ex- perience We are expecting great things of him next year. WHITLOCK CCatcherJ Although young in age this man is old in the baseball game. No smarter catcher ever nestled behind a Junior College platter than he is. Along with this he is an excellent fielder, a good hitter and is fight through and through. We regret that we lose him this year. Ross LOVE CSecond Basel It' can truly be said of Ross that he played his part in every game. He fielded some that looked good for hits and had a head full of baseball sense. He is a true Cougar and promises to be one of the leading men of next- year's squad. SMITH lRight Fieldj In Smitty we have a man- overilow- ing with fight and pep.

That same old spirit manifested by all true Meridian College students was not lacking that night for such was the gladness of every old student that soon the new students were overcome- by the same feeling, so they too joined in the fun and it was soon evident that each and every one of them were already full-fledged and whole-hearted supporters of old M. C. A Such games as the Broad Smilef' aFeminine Disc Throwf' and ul-landicap Race made the reds and yellows put forth the old fight and pep. The most enjoyable event of the evening was probably the program rendered by the old members of the Fine Arts Department. Every one departed with a lighter heart and feeling that they were glad to begin a year's work and fun in Meridian College. Philo-San J aes Entertain With a Social On February 13th, 1925, in the home of Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Creems, the Philo San ,lacs Literary Society entertained the Arcon Sethwards with a party. The girls had to make their dates and there was much fun gotten from this. At 7:30 o'clock the beaux met their dates in the reception hall of the Boys' Dormitory and from there the fun began. When they arrived the first thing to start the fun was a wild scramble in a peanut hunt, this was followed by different groups of the Philo San Jacs Society furnishing some form of enter- tainment such as uCircle Conflabf, alapanese Tagf' and many other interesting games, but between each game there were entertainers with special music by 4'Moses', Leach and the Greer Twins. After two hours of merriment delicious fruit punch, cocoanut macaroons and drop cakes were served the all eager guests. Each expressed their extreme enjoyment of the evening and took their departure carrying with them a lighter heart.

The Wonder of the Traveling Nickel, created great excitement. In the midst of all the noise of bursting balloons 9 whistles and other noses, there arose the cry 4'Come in the Lunch Room a d y n Eat, there many places were filled with very delicious lunches of sandwiches, cakes, pies and coffee. Evening waned and night drew nigh. The crowd was having a very big time from the noise. But from the lobby the crowd drifted to the aud't ' 1 orium. There at eight o'clock was staged two plays-gfloint Owners in Spainf' At the Movies. These two plays were enjoyed by the audience very much. After these plays the crowd of people departed expressing themselves as very much pleased with the 4'Carnival of 19257 Educational Association Entertains Student Bod H Among the most successful social events of the year was one given by the Educational Association on the evening of January 5, 1925, in the Auditorium of the main building.

A M Freshmen Class Enrerrains The seniors, members of the faculty, and academy students were delight- fully entertained by the Freshman Class on the evening of October 25, 19241 This social event was one of the most enjoyable of the new school year. The students first gathered at the Conservatory where a splendid program was given, included in this program was a reading taken from 4'Miss Minerva and William Greenhillf' given by Miss Gerald'ne Dunn, she responded to the applause with a snappy encore. Another number of the program was a read- lng given by Miss Ballew of Clifton. These and other nu mbers constituted the program rendered. Immediately after it was finished every one went to the Beanery to spend the remainder of the evening. In all parts of the room, the colors of M. C. and also those of the Freshman class were seen. On the pedestals, in the center of the room, were ferns and cut flowers. Around the walls, seats for those present had been arranged. D After all the crowd had gathered the fun began. The first game played lwas, Where you are, What you are doing, and whom you have with you. As each person gave his report a roar of laughter would be sent up. As soon as h t e game had been finished c'Progressive Conversation was begun. This game gave many students a chance to become acquainted with those whom they had not met. These games were followed by many others and much fun was de- rived from them. 1 After the games delicious sandwiches and iced tea were served. The early part of the evening had been a grand success but after the refreshments had been served it was pronounced by all to be even a greater success.

They are found in every important phase of the College life and are always ready to support their school and its movements. Taken as a whole there is no part of the College life with which we are not connected. We are deprived of the privi- lege of the Dormitory Rough Houses but get it hack in the home cooking that we always have. We will grow with the opening of each year and strive to make our school a success. The Tournament lub This club is the continuation of an organization established in 1923 and has grown by leaps and bounds since that time. The way the picture is made and the strange actions of some of the individuals are mysteries to some, but to the true and tried members it is-very easily understood. This club contains the real sports of Meridian College and they have stood every ordeal with unending faith. We will ever grow and uphold our patriotic principles. s c ,, K i 1 ,Y Y,...,...-tr .. ,--,,.,,--., f,,,,- ,- -,:,a-4- -Y -v -------: - ' - - ': , ,'n:,..--V-1'4afy1' ' ' .F ', ' 7 M.. ., 2 w 64 'eaaeqrhm fj 1ggm-VF J A v I , 1 , 1.

XL-felis-I f?-JOSQUE' 19251 I IT f JJ 'ls M4 Ml , VW JW A , The Hill County Club has been an organization of M. C. ever since established. We rank next to the greatest in number. This club is famous because its membership comes from a county full of black land. We gaze upon the golden fields of grain and the snow white fields of cotton. We are proud of our county, as well as being a representat've in M. C. Hill county is well represented in each activity of the school. f X me BQSQUEIQZS , 1 'V ll J, V , f This county, with its beautiful grain, the big-boll cotton, fertile land, huge mountains, and glittering streams, is well represented this year. We are few in numbers but many in spirit. We see the thoroughbred cattle and horses graze in the meadows and on the ranges-makes us proud we are from Bell county. Knowing that this county has so many different occupations, explains why we are alert and active in every way that is for the best interest of Meridian College. i...,.,,:, . ,.,...., 2 , 135 -,-.,,,-f, .. , i lt Fw fa I t A ij 1 J , ,ff ' Z 1 I , 5 eng.. ,. .

Teachers, certificates are given students who complete work in this department. Meridian College has a Teacher Placement Committee, and the best schools are open to teachers going out from this institution. ACADEMY DEPARTMENT This Department offers all the high school subjects and prepares students to enter College without entrance examination. This Department should specially appeal to students from the short term rural schools and to those from unaffiliated schools. Students lacking only a few subjects completing high school may come here and do some college work while completing the high school courses. COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT Courses are given in Shorthand, Bookkeeping and Office Training which pre- pares students for the business world. These courses are also valuable as college entrance units. FINE ARTS DEPARTMENT Courses are given in the study of Voice, Piano, Violin and Expression. Glee Club, Choral Club, and Dramatic Art Club work is of special value to the students. SUMMER SCHOOL A session of eight weeks is conducted each summer where students may work off college entrance conditions, or pursue some work toward college graduation. SUMMER NORMAL Under the approval of the State Department of Education an eight weeks' session of Summer Normal work is given. Prospective teachers may pursue the work for any Certificate offered by the Department of Education in classes that are small enough for them to get individual instruction. ,For further information write REGISTRAR, MERIDIAN, TEXAS I ui -III- 'I' 4' , M - 1 il I1IllIll1!ll gi, 1 1- 1 1 - 1 1 1 + 4 1 1 fun- nn-I aio X on Jmtonsi-fem stron As comforting as the shoes themselves is the thought that the rest of the world cannot help but admire your good judg- ment in deciding on Florsheims. 4 THE BRISTOL V S10 We cater to your wants' with the best Best Quality and Latest Styles F4 R.
