1 an pianist, whs heard in a splendidly lial-

I.ady of the Lake I otivent. This was one

I This wns Mr. Henry's eeeond appearance
In the vicinity of Sun Antoulo, and he
•found his old friends, and new found
friends w»re sprinkled through the stu

The charm of this pianist lies in the
virility of tone, his Intelligent nuance and
true musical discretion of Interpretive
power. Ills Haeh is t'.achlst (he lines the
pedal sparingly): his Urnhuia is llrahius
int. aud on through the lung list,
It may lie said that by sentliueut and
temperament he Is peculiarly fitted as ou

lustrate hla explanation with the tone pic-
ture of varying sentiment and majestic
grief. True to modern acceptation, Iheh
i pianist made no pause between the three
luovemcuts of this sonata.
The thre; Chopin numbers deserve espe-
| clnl mention, as each received most cartful
delineation in style. In the I'relnde, Op.

not escape the critic. In Etude, op ib,

while the Polonaise. Op. 40, No. '-' w'as

The "Dancing Marionette," his own com

with fascinating melody. The applause

"The Kcflcrtlons In the Water" (Dehna-

Hon. . .
"Ten Men From Texas'' is Ihe title given
Mr. Holiand'a'ndilrcKs, but the title bare-
ly scratches the soil of the story of high
public spirit which Mr, Holland tells.
I{fginniug early In January, the Hol-
land Company spent approximately .fllD,-
oiN* iu six weeks In advertising Texas
and the other Southwestern States—but
chiefly Texas—in Chicago, Detroit aud
New Vork. In this campaign, the com-
pany used the Tribune aud the News In
Chicago; the Free Press and the News in
Detroit, aud the Times, the World, the
Sun aud the Globe in New Vork. In addi-
tion to full page and flvo-coiumn adver-
tisements in these newspapers, the com-
pany circularized «very advertising agency
in each ot the three cities at Intervals of
two days. . ,
The copy used was essentially mora
of an advertisement of Texas as a trade
territory than of the Holland publications,
those inagaslnes being "played down,
while the territory ltaelf was played up.
The first advertisement said "Ten Men
From Texas" would be In the elty
throughout Hie week to explain anything
anyone might wish to know about Texas
aa a trade territory. And tho ten meo
• umprisecl specialist* in different lines-
farm machinery, automobile and acces-
sories. the other manufactured articles
marketed throughout Texas, inquiries.
. , ncernlng each particular line were re-
ferred to the specialist in that line, and
Texas was advertised in a w«y no see-
tiou of the country ever has been ad-
vertised in the centers of manufactory
and of foreign advertising.
Mr. Holland will use charts In explain-
ing thp campaign in detail at the lunch-
eon. "Advertising for Mexicau and Latin-
American Trade" will be the subject of a
discussion led by the K1 Paso group.
Major General James G. Ilartjord. com-
mander of Csmp Travis and of the -nd
Division, has accepted an invitation to at-
tend the luncheon and probably will
speak briefly.
J. H. Payne, first vice president of tne
State organization, and l)r. Bpurgeon Bell
of the University of Texas will be the
speakers at this morning's session, begin-
ning at 10 o'clock. Contending thnt the
advertisement Is one of the greatest educa-
tional institutions of the day. Mr. 1'ayue
will discuss the subject. "The Advertising
Man's Burden." l>r. Bell will speak on
•Advertising as an Investment," and a
round table discussion on newspaper ad-
vertising will be led by the Houston Ad-
vertislyg Club.
The ministers of San Antonio have been
invited to attend the afternoon session,
when the Kev. Dr. Floyd Foe of El Faso
will di.M uss the subject. (Thy Greatest Ad-
vertiser Inclusive or Church Advertising."
Frank T. Crittenden of Fort Worth will
speak on "The Ft hies of Advertising.'' and

The wives and daughters of the dlee-
gates were taken for an automobile ride

inu the Alamo, tho mission^ and the parks,
and a similar trip has been arranged for

FIGHT FOR HONEST PUBLICITY

deceptive or misleading, shall be guilty of
u misdemeanor."
Senator Ilertzberg called attention to
the iact that ihe Federal Uovernwout loug
ago took legal preemptions against dlshon
est advertising wh< u Uobkreaa enacted
laws against using the mails io detraud,
through either letter or pamphlets or other
uieaiia. providing punishment by a fine of
not more than $1,000 or Imprisonment for
not inorj than five years, or both.
Public sentiment must be crystallized
In favor of 'hu bill if it is to pass, Sen-
ator Hertaberg said. He said his experi-
ence had been that a bill Is allowed to die
on tho calendar, Is killed or passed by
only one bottle unless the Legislature
knows "who Is behind It and the reasons
lor its being introduced.'
The law wLl bens!it four distinct classes,
which taken together make np all the peo-
j pie. aud this fact should be clearly pre-
| Men ted to the publle. the speaker said.
These daises are: First, the advertising
agency engaged iu tho writing and plac |
ing of copy; second, the man who has |
! something to advertise, tho merchant and
j manufacturer; thirii. the newspaper, tie
magazine and the farm and trade journal,
because with dishonest advertising elim
luted the public will believe what It reads
and therefore will read the* advertisements
more th«in it does today, and fourth, tho
public, because it can have confidence in
the advertising it reads.
It. Clarence Jones of San Antonio is
chairman of a committee appointed by
Lowry Martin of Coraicana. president of
the Associated Clubs, to place the bill be
fore the publle throughout the State aud
crystallize sentiment in its favor. Other
members of this committee are: David
Bchlen of Beaumont. Kuf P. March of El
l'aao, B. .T. Koeuier of Dallas. F. G. Hun-
tress of San Antonio, J. B. Simpson of
Dallas and K. V. Holland of Dallas.
Clarence W'olters, general manager of the
Victoria Chamber of Commerce, who is a
candidate for the legislature, told the
conference he would support the honest
advertising law in the House, If nominated
and elected.
A round tabe dlscosslon on vigilance, led
by It. Clarence Jones, president of the As-
sociated Advertising Clubs of San Anto-
nio, followed the address by Senator
Ilertzberg, with which it was closely
linked.
Speakers from nearly nil of the 17 cl'iei
represented told what Is being done iu
their own communities to do away with the
"fly-by-night, scheme advertising man."
whose only desire is to "get the money,"
and who in the past has done so without
rci.dering any service to the advertiser.
However, the vigilance committee of the
Associated Advertising Clubs of El Faso
are busy and the "fly-by-nlghts" are leav-
ing that city almost as fast as they get
there. Kuf IV March and A. K. Millicau told
the conference.
William Broekhousen and L. E, Baldwin
told of personal experience In vigilance
W< k in San Antonio.
One way to further combat the "fly-by-
nights" 1s to educate the Job printers of
small towns, 8. I). Watson, publisher of a
weekly newspaper at Han Beulto, said. Mr.
Watson said he knew of one case, where a
Job printer In Ban Benito did the printing
for one of the schemes, the so-called "ad-
vertising" to be circulated In either San
Antonio or Houston (he did not recall
which). Employing printers In the city in
which the publication u.is to be circulated
had turned down the Job."
Among others who spoke during the
round table discussion were: Harold Kay
ton aud V. L. ('arson of San Antonio, J. II
Payne and J. Bt Simpson of Dallas, David
Sehlen of Beaumont, Stanley Kerr of Cor
sbana, L. F. McKay of Ttmiple and T. M.
bapplngton of Waco.
The discussion developed two suggestions
which were referred to the resolutions com-
mittee for actlou today : (1) That provision
