Garland spared no money or
patience with this train, doing
most of the work himself The
front of the engine was cast for
him in a Fort Worth machine
shop The upholstering of the
seats, which have foam rubber
on them, were d ne by him The

own well equipped machine shop
at his home at 1321 Jefferson
His original idea was to nut the
train in the park across from
his home
He has been careful to watch
every detail from the Safety
standpoint, because he knows his
young riders are not always
thinking and he doesn't want
them to get their foot or hand
in the wrong place where it
would be hurt.
Garland ran a train in Cam-
eron Park a good while before
this. However, he did not own it,
but he has bought the track
from the former owner and is
planning to buy some of the oth-
er imnrovements. The train was
a wider gauge and had to be
cut down for his new engine.
This is the second miniature
train Garland has built The

A. H. “Smokey” Garland is ■
a man who "lives and breathes”
railroading. At age 68 he is still
very active In running the new
diesel engines between the towns gj™
throughout Texas for the Katy. VI
The last four years he has been
budding a small steam engine
in his "spare” time. It is now
about finished and Wacoans will
have an opportunity to see it fl
and even ride in one of the rail W
cars he built to go with it. He
is setting it up to run in Cam-
eron Park on the spot where he
formerly ran another one.
Between double shifts and
"odd" shifts, which he says is
very much part of railroading,
he has built this steam engine
and three cars over a four-year
period and at a cost of around
three thousand dollars, not to
mention the cost of his time.
Mrs. Jessie Elliott announces
the opening of her “Studio of
Creative Art” at 2621 North 18th
Street on September 17th at nine
o’clock a m. A complete line of
copper tooling, leathercraft and
textile painting supplies will be
handled. The textile paints are a
new line never before sa'd in
Waco. The colors are beautiful
blends already mixed, ideal for
those who paint at odd times for
the paint* are the same whether
one uses them within the next
hour or the next year.
At the "Studio of Creative Art"
Mrs Elliott will teach two hours
every morning and afternoon free
of charge. Instruction will be giv-
en in leathercraft, coppercraft
and textile painting from 9:00 to
'11:00 mornings and from 1:30 to
3:30 afternoons. Two evening
classes wilt be scheduled also, the
nights and time announce ' 'ater.
Those interested in en
a free six-weeks con
call Mrs. Elliott al 16. 1.
Some kind of creative art is
essential to the average human.
We must go on creating things—
great or small, lasting or fugitive,
beautiful or homely because into
each thing that takes form and
substance under the hand, there
enters some quality conceived in
the mind of the maker — some
ethereal part of the artisan —
some fragments of a drcam
brought into reality. We must
forever strive to be a creator and
make ideas grow into things un-
der our hands. Handicrafts are
an island of hope in a sen of
dbjpair, bceau • in them' man
can still exerc ' the liaison of
mind and hand in creating things
for his ow n satisfaction ar-I use
In handicrafts man asserts his
mastery over things — escapes
the fatal subservience to th* ma-
chine — confirms his human
transcendance and avoids bore-
dom, loneliness, feels the ioy of
living and creating with his
hands. Knowing crafts can be
profitable too.
All are cordially invited to the
opening on September 15th. Re
member to call 4-6154 if you arc
interested in a class.
