INTERESTING REPORT
of.cheyene RODEO
Robt. F. Riley and J. E. Jones
returned recently from a trip to
northwestern United States where
they attended the Frontier Round-
up in Cheyene, Wyo. This affair is
one of the most outstanding
events held in the nation.
There were about 2,700 cars
frem all parts of the United
States, 107 being from Texas, not
to mention train and bus loads of
visitors that poured into Cheyene,
Mr. Riley reported. The special
train from (Denver, Colo., carried
600 passengers, one of which was
Wendell Willkie, Republican nom-
inee for President of the United
States. The train was met by
stage coaches, when they paraded
through the streets, forming »
very colorful spectacle.
The rodeo is one of the largest
and fastest Mr. Riley had evet
seen and was to be compared only
to a large three-ring circus, he
said.
On July 21 Mr. Riley and Mr.
Jones drove through parts of the
Rocky Mountains, stopping to
make snowballs and compare the
texture of the snow to that of the
winter snow in Texas.
Mr. Riley became ill on the
first, day of their return trip and
they travelled 920 miles in 19 hours
to reach Dallas, where Mr. Riley
went through a clinic.
After their return ot Teague,
Mr. Riley was confined to his bed
for several days, but ib now at
his position at the First National
Bank, feeling quite normal.
Mr. and-MFre. Roy Turner are
the parents of a baby daughter,
born on Wednesday, July 31, at
the Davidson Sanitarium.
Mr. and Mrs. S. A. Posejr of
Freer, Texas, spent several weeks
with relatives in Teague, leaving
their son, Sidney, for a month’s
visit.

It would take columns and
columns to begin to tell you what
a wonderful vacation we had.
Athalia G. and your writer went
to San Antonio and visited the
Ben Simms family and saw the
sights. We had never been to San
Antonio before and there was
plenty for us to see. Let’s see
whether we can remember.

Loyal that we are, the Alamo
headed our list of ‘must sees.” We
are probably different from every-
one (so is everyone else, for that
matter) but standing in that
sanctum of Texas Liberty, we
found it hard to believe that a
vital and death dealing battle had
aver been fought in a place so
small and so peacefully, quiet.
Hard to believe that those wall's
and floors were marked by bullets
and that they had once sheltered
our world famed Texas heroes.
We thought the monument
in the center of Alamo Pla:
front of the alamo, was
beautiful—erected to honor
dead, but there was no peace
about it. ,, , i,

We loved the missions, especial-
ly San Jose, (in spite of the fact
that the stairs to the tower nearly
killed us.) The timeless silhou-
ettes of them against the cloud
banked sky was so lovely. We
cannot understand how tourists
can heedlessly enter the missions—
wilfully destroying their sanctity
with loud spoken words and
senseless pencil scrawls. What
pleasure could one get from de-
facing te crumbling wall, nearly
immortal, with a black smudged
name asd address?

But enough! Of course we
visited Bracken ridge, White Mu-
seum, the Zoo—one of the most
attractive we’ve ever seen—the
now stadium and the Sunken Gar-
dens. We had seen many pictures
of the Gardens, all of which do
them rank injustice. Whether one
climbs high and looks out over the
garden, catching the sun’t reflec-
tion in the water, surrounded by
lilly pads and fragile flowers—or
whether one stands on the low
bridge and looks at the bluff or
the Japanese tea garden, the view
is unsurpassably lovely. Truly a
pity that everyone hasn’t seen
this breath-taking spot.
