Drifters Easily Spotted.
"Wait till the first norther,” laughed the
army sergeant. “Then we will commence
to get the ‘snow birds.’ What? Oh, of
course, the drifters, I mean, who try to hit
the army for a winter berth. We generally
spot ’em. What we want, and are getting
fast, are the first-class Texas boys, sturdy
lads, ambitious for travel and education be-
fore settling down.”
At the same time it was said that Texas
boys “stack up” with any in the United
States in mental and physical excellence.
“While approximately only 25 per cent of the

For the school boy, college youths,

who appreciates a good timepiece.
A good watch is a faithful friend, and
it’s the sort of friend every man, wo-

dependable companion. We’ve been
selling watches for years and we know
just what it takes to make them de-

We should be very glad to have a talk
with you on the subject and to show
you our great stock, than which there
is nothing better in the south.
With the close of the harvesting season,
Texas boys, anxious for education and trav-
el, have commenced their annual descent on
Uncle Sam’s recruiting stations and as a
result every branch of the national defense
is profiting by many strong, healthy, am-
bitious young men. Enlistments of the
past week in East Texas have proved al-
most record-breakers for both army and

It has taken its place as one of the
established institutions of the South,
has the No-Tsu-Oh celebration given
each year in Houston. This year the
dates are November 10 to 15.
The No-Tsu-Oh is now fifteen years
old. It has grown to huge proportions.
It is spectacular, one of the most spec-
tacular entertainments in the country,
and it is entertaining and instructive.
The thing about this celebration that
appeals to the people of the State,
and especially to those who reside
within three hundred miles of Hous-
ton, is the fact that it is given each
year for their especial benefit and en-
tertainment.
It is not a money-making scheme,
not by any means. As a matter of
fact, the average Houston merchant
might as well close his doors during
No-Tsu-Oh week and give his sales
forces a vacation, for all the business
they ever do.
It is Houston’s method of entertain-
ing the people in her territory. The
people of Houston feel that they owe a
great deal to the people of the tribu-
tary territory. And once each year
they invite these people to become
their guests. Those who have attend-
ed former celebrations of the kind in
Houston—and who is it within a radius
of 300 miles who has not?—can testify
that Houston knows how to entertain
her guests.
It is a week of frolic and recreation.
Every man and woman in Houston is
expected to entertain. Dull care is
sent away and a good time is enjoyed
for a week.
Now, while it is a frolic, it is clean.
There is nothing that ever happens
at the No-Tsu-Oh that would cause a
refined, modest lady to blush. Every-
body, however, is expected to be
human and all are expected to act as
real humans should act.
And they do, when they go to the
Houston No-Tsu-Oh. They get out of
the old shell and shake themselves.
They laugh and make merry and the
bloom of youth comes back to their
cheeks. There is a real life glow and
a real life spirit. One does not know
just how human he is, gorhgy human
all bther hmn are, ltithey have
mingled together on the streets of
No-Tsu-Oh.
There are never any strangers in
No-Tsu-Oh. Though there will be one
hundred to one hundred and fifty thou-
sand men and women and children
thronging the streets and buildings on
the night of the big spectacular pa-
rade, which is Tuesday, November 11,
every one of them when they rub up !
against each other will feel that they
are acquainted.
Then, in the midst of it the band
starts up and the sidewalks are clear-
ed and the boys and the girls, the men
and the women, whirl away in the
mazes of the waltz.
This is something entirely new in
the way of an entertainment—the
sidewalk dance. Elaborate prepara-
tions have been made for this feature.
The committee in charge of this has
secured the broadest sidewalks in the
downtown portion of the city. They
have arranged for orchestras and
throughout the day and the evening
the music wall start and the dance
will begin. ~
It will not cost the visitor a cent.
He and his partner may dance to their
hearts’ content. If they do not hap-
pen to be accompanied by a partner,
there will be one within arms’ reach.
There will be none of the tangos or
anything that will offend. It will be
clean. Officers will be on the ground
to enforce regulations that will keep
these dances clean.
There will be such dances at half a
dozen places on the sidewalks, and at
the same time in a dozen or more
halls in the downtown district there
will be dances. Everybody is welcome.
Everybody, in fact, is urged to be pres-
ent. There is but one qualification—
you must be a lady and gentleman.
