The magazine “West Texas
Today”, official publication of
the West Texas Chamber of
Commerce, carried an adver-
tisement in its February issue
which contined a drawing of
the ruins of Fort Griffin’s Of-
ficers’ Quarters, south of here.
Ti e drawing, by E. M. Schi-
wetz, noted Texan, appeared in
an Humble Oil & Refining Co.
ad.
The ad was titled “The Pio-
neers Came This Way”. The
story follows:
“The silent ruins of forts
across the western face of Tex-
as remind us
came this way in
timer. Danger was a way of
life . . . security was unknown,
for this was the part o'f Texas
that was swept by Indian war-
riors who gathered speed and
ferocity as they thundered to-
ward the Mexican border.
But the settlers who had
corn'd here had come to stay.
So they fought and toiled and
persevered and built the great
state of Texas.”
