GENERAL ASSEMBLY NEWS
On Tuesday, October 21, General
Assembly was opened by the reading
of announcements, the singing of one
stanza of Alma Mater, and a prayer
by President Evans. Dr. Evans then
read the “parable of the talents
from the New Testament. He gave
an interesting discussion of this text,
which contained the following very
worthwhile facts: Any power is given
for service, and its value increases
with the service it gives. Talent now
worth five dollars may become worth
thousands if properly cared for. And
a workman whose services may be
valued at seven hundred dollars, by
technical training, may increase his
value to fifteen thousand, and by
higher training, to fifty thousand dol-
lars. Whatever talent you have de-
velops that. If you do not, society
friend and God wil condemn you.
On Friday, October 21 the General
Assembly was given over to Rev.
Powell, of the local Baptist church,
and Mr. Canzoneri, of the San Mar-
cos Baptist Academy. After the an-
nouncements by Dean Speck and Miss
Butler, and the singing of one stanza
of “Onward Christian Soldiers , Rev.
Powell led in the devotional services.
He then introduced Mr. Canzoneri to
the Assembly and turned a part oi
the service over to this^ gentleman.
Mr. Canzoneri, who is directing the
singing at the Baptist revival now
going on, took charge and taught
the gang to sing, “We Are Down-
hearted.”
He had lots of pep and made us
so interested in singing that we were
indeed not downhearted. After suc-
cessfully teaching us t'o sing and
whistle the song, he sang a solo tor
us He was heartily encored, but
had to leave to fill another engage-
ment. , .
Rev. Powell then read a shorn
scripture lesson and made a talk
on it.

We have found that the twenty-
four hour rule regarding the attend-
ance in assembly is inadequate. Here-
after students will be given forty-
eight hours in which to report to Mr.

ingly.

HOSPITAL NEWS
The College hospital has been a
heaven for many students, who have
been driven by dengue fever to a
place of rest and recuperation. The
students who have been confined to
the hospital the last week with den-
gue are: Roy and Tully LaBauve,
Howard Reeves, Arnold * Butts and
Justin Rea. Justin went to the hos-
pital to catch up with his studies,
had a “Breezy Story Magazine” and
before he left the hospital the ‘breeze’
gave him the dengue.
Those in the hospital now with the
dengue are: Oscar Dahlburg, Alfred
Johnson, Edith Jordan, Jane Kou-
bicka, Frances Johnson and Ila May
Wellburn.
Gladys Boyken, who has had a se-
vere attack of the dengue has re-
turned to her home in San Antonio
for a week.
Many of the students are looking
ahead, and are having Mrs. Lusk,
the college nurse, give them serums
for colds, typhoid, smallpox and
dengue. The student provides serum
and the college nurse administers it
free.
Information
Texas 43rd place. Texas spends $2.77
per capita, total population, out of
local funds, while Montana _ spends
$17.64 and Mississippi trails with
$1.72.
In the percentage of the total re-*
venues for providing for elementary
and high schools that comes from the
State, as contrasted with local
sources, Texas ranks first. There is
no State in which a larger proportion
of the revenues for these schools
comes from the State treasury.
Dr. Works concludes that the low
per capita expenditure is to be ex-
plained by small proportion of the
expense of providing for these
schools that is borne by the local
communities. He believes the State
to be relatively generous.

al assembly period on last Thursday

“And for why should I buy a

‘To put your clothes in”, was the

“And go naked”, exclaimed Pat.
