Agricultural Society Meeting,
The £irsl meeting of the Agri-
cultural Society for the present col
lege year was held Monday evening
in the auditorium of the Horticul
tural Building. The society was
called to order by President Longe
necker. Next in order was the
reading of the minutes of the last
meeting of the society last May.
After these minutes were approved,
the report of the treasurer was read,
and also accepted as read. After
a number of discussions the presi
dent was authorized to appoint a
committee to revise the constitu
tion. The revised edition will then
be presented to the society for ap
proval, after which it will be print
ed in booklet form. This will en
able the members to see at a glance
the various rules and regulations of
the society, which should help
make the work of the society more
efficient.
Owing to the absence from col
lege of Merchant, who had been
elected as assistant manager of the
Agricultural Fair on Pennsylvania
Day, nominations were made for a
a new man to be elected to fill the
position of assistant manager. The
following men were nominated, one
of which will be elected at the
next meeting of the society:
Gonder, Garber, and Lowry.
The editor of the Penn State
Farmer, Paul Baker, spoke to the
members of the society and urged
the need of their support, as well as
the support of all men in the agri
cultural school. The Penn State
Farmer is a credit to the students
in the Agricultural department of
the college and certainly should
have the support of every person
enrolled in a course of agriculture.
The president appointed a com
mittee with R. M. Decker as chair
man, to arrange for a reception to
all new men taking the course in
agriculture. Heretofore, these re
ceptions have meant much to the
society, in addition to the benefit
received by the new men, which is
really the primary object of the
reception.
A score or more of men were
proposed as members of the or
ganization. After the election of
these persons upon the payment of
the dues required the meeting was
adjourned.
Political Candidates Visit College
On Thursday evening the college
was honored by a visit from two of
the candidates on the state Repub
lican ticket, Dr. Martin G. Brum
baugh and Frank McClain. The
trip was taken as a part of the
campaign tour now in progress and
a large crowd was assembled in
front of the Co-op eager to greet
the distinguished visitors. Dr.
Brumbaugh has long been prom
inently identified with the public
schools of Pennsylvania and has
been a consistent worker for better
ment in our educational system.

GRAHAM ON THE CORNER
In a short address he gave some
very sound advice to the young
men assembled and he assured
them that he could appreciate their
labors and their problems. The
students were told that they were
the survivors of a long and honor
able competition. As the victors
in this long struggle and as the
recipients of the generosity of the
people in providing for their educa
tion, they owed a duty of service to
the commonwealth. Dr. Brum
baugh brought out the fact that the
present efficiency of the school
system in Pennsylvania had been
brought about by the Republican
party, and he closed his speech
with a plea for the support of the
Republican candidates in the No
vember elections.
Mr. McClain was introduced as
the man who had fathered and
earnestly supported the appropria
tion bill for New Beaver field. As
the time of the party was limited
Mr. McClain was able only to thank
the students for the enthusiastic
reception tendered them. The
party then left for Bellefonte from
which point they continued their
tour of the state.

that the work is very much more
encouraging than at the beginning
of the last college year when this
