Among the many attractions of the
joy plaza that caught the fancy of the
first-night patrons was Tanagara, a
European novelty that has byen
brought over'by Mr. Kennedy's agents
and had its first presentation hero last
night. On a tiny.stage scarcely over
a foot in width, human beings only
nine inches in height sang and darned
as if on a regular vaudeville stago,
it is a clever illusion and had its quota
of pleased patrons during the evening.
Mention mst’also be made of the
Follies of '23, presenting Miss Melville
’and her company of pretty girls in a
novelty electrical production in which
artistic poses enhanced by elaborate
electrical effects form the basis of the
progyam. It was an act new to Austin
and was highly appreciated by the
patrons. Noah’s Ark and Home Brew,
mirth provoking shows, also came in
for their share of patronage. Take It
by and large, the Trades Council has
brought a winner to town in the person
of tho Kennedy shows.

A most beautiful and impressive
Easter service was held Sunday eve-

Southern Presbyterian Church in the
Endeavor rooms of the church, with
Mr. Gus Crayen, retiring president, as
leader. The large room, with crack-
ling fire in the fireplace, and dec-
orated, with Easter lilies and blua-
bonnets, made a pretty, setting for
the installation service of the newly
elected officers. Rev. W. R, ML.ter,
pastor of the chur h conducted the
installation service, installing into of-
fice the following: President, Mias
Lillian Hildinger; vice-pi osident. Miss
Bertha Casey; recording secretary.
Miss Annie Gem Felder; correspond-
ing secretary, Miss Kittle Shands;
treasurer, Mr. Charles Sparenberg.
The committee chairmen were also
installed at this service. Preceding
the installation service, a short pro-
gram was given. Miss Bertha Casey
told a story setting forth the signifi-
cance of the Easter lily; Migs Bennie
Mae Bass gave a short talk on "Our
Inheritance in Christ;" and Mr. Gus

The grand carnival—the trades union
festival- opened last night in a blaze
of multicolored lights and flaming
colors. Thousands of Austin residents
saw and enjoyed the many novel at-
tractions that the Con T. Kennedy
shows are presenting under the aus-
pices of the Trades Council. Mr. Ken-
nedy and his staff extended themselves
to entertain the first-night visitors,
and the boys of J he council were very
much in evidence as ticket collectors
of th various shows.
The festival entrance Is at Sixth
Street and. East Avenue and extends
to the Southern Pacific tracks, and the
arrangement of the midway is such
that the visitor may take in various
attractions with a minimum of dis-
comfort. Despite the threatening
weather, from an early hour the
grounds were thronged with laughing.
Jostling crowds, intent on finding his
or her particular brand of entertain-
ment, and the tiled horses of the
merry-go-round—ths is vouched for
by those who know*—had been bedded
down for the night before the crowds
uf merrymakers thought of the word
home. In a statement made this
morning by Mr. Ladd, chairman of the
amusement committee, he is quoted as
saying that tho Kennedy shows more
than met their expectations and that
the crowds apparently found the keen-
ninety days after adjournment of th
1 gislntur e.
Tho governor also approved these
bills: Changing the names of tho state
normal colleges to "State Teacher Col-
logo"; creating independent school dis-
trict In Burnet county; providing for
refund of taxes paid on marl, gravel
and sand paid by any town or city.
The governor filed without his sig-
nature nine bills, mostly local meas-
ures. One of the general bills filed
provide® that textbook companies oper-.
ating in Texas shall pay a gro8s re-
ceipts tax. _______

"Heavens! What Industry!” she
exclaimed as she made out his fami-

overshadowed them.
Bert looked up, his face grim.
"I suppose you think it’sea come-
down for me to be washing cars," hb
said rudely, "but I don’t care what
you think and you'd better clear out
before you get splashed."
"You needn’t take my head off!”
Nora retorted, (limbing dexterously
into one of the cleaved cars,” and I’m
not going to clear out, thank you!”
She looked down at him from her
point of vantage with a gay smile
that simply refused to be squelhed.
"But just what’s the idea?" she pur-
sued as Bert stubbornly averted his
head and went on' with his wur!:. "Aro
you doing penance or something?'’
He dashed his wetcloth to the floor
and came up to her.
