Millions of you, ih the past few
years, have learned the delight
of PALMOLIVE soap.
It comes from a scientific blend
of palm and olive oils. From the
same cleansing oils as ancient
queens used in their luxury baths.
All the ages have produced no
other oils comparable for soaps.
But palm oil comes from cen-
tral Africa. In the first stage
toward us, natives carry it over
mountains on their heads.
Our olive oil comes from Spain

Our Suggestion to You
If you prise PALMOLIVE, and would sadly miss
it, we recommend that you lay in a supply. At
today's price; it is by far the greatest value yoi
will find in soap.
The prospects are, if war continues, that this soap
will be hard to get

coLLEGE STATION, Texas, July
I-—The students of the Agricultural
and Mechanical College of Texaa,
who last year joined the reserve offi-
cer*’ training corpe at the college, are
receiving their checks from the war
department for commutation of ra-
tions duing their seryice here. The
corps is open to members of th* two
upper classes of the college, and was
joined this spring by twenty-one
seniors and nnety-five juniors, who
drew pay at the rate of <6 cents a
day from the time they joined. The
pay which will be drawn for this
spring by the members of the reserve
officers’ training corps at the Agricul-
tural and Mechanical College of Texas
probably will amount to about **666.
As the extra drill entailed by mem-
ber* of the corps does not Interfere in
the least with the regular college
work of the men, and as this train-
ing is exceedingly valuable to a man
who enters any branch of military
service, the military department of
the Agricultural and Mechanical Col-
lege of Texas expects a large number
of applicants for membership here
next year.
A great many letters have been're-
ceived by Prestdent W. B. Bizsell ask-
ing whether or not students of the
Agricultural and Mechanical College
of Texas should enlist, and inquiring
as to the chances of Agricultural and
Mechanical cadets being specifically
exempt
"in view of the fact," said Dr. Biz-
Zell, "that the draft has covered
i.666,666 men, of whom only 600,000
are needed for military service, it
would seem that there is very little
chance of conscription affecting In
