“Names of Texas Pioneers,” were
given in answer to roll call by mem-
bers of the Wednesday Study club
when Mrs. Clias. Stokes was hostess
Wednesday, Oct. 2.
“Some Bits of Early Texas His-
tory,” was the general outline of the
lesson, which was one of much in-
.terest and enjoyment. “The Mis-
sions,” a pet topic to all Texans, were
discussed by the leader, Mrs. N. B.
Taylor. “The Rose Window of San
Jose” was described as one of the
many beauties of mission architec-
ture. “Many legends ^concerning the
missions add to their interest and
charm,” said Mrs. Taylor, who also
cited the poet that lots cf Texas mis-
sions are in a state of decay because
of wooden structure, while those
around San Antonio retain their
original appearance, being made of
stone.
“Life in Texas before 1836,” in-
cluding escapades between many na-
tionalities and innumerable hardships
relative to crude living conditions,
was the subject of Mrs, Jack White.
| “Poetry based on Texas History
[ before 1836,” is almost devoid of
j artistic merit, though it is valuable
j as on indication of the fine moral
character, high ethical ideals and
patriotic fervor of the people in those
early days, according to Mr.s. Harry
Easters, who reviewed that subject.
For the most part the early poetry
is extremely sentimental and moral-
istic echoing the thought and style
of English poets. Imitative poetry is
always secondary and insignificant.
We shall find that it was not until
much later that Texas contributed
anything significant to the body of
American poetry, and that was in
the ballads and songs representative
of the cowboy and other local types.
Mrs. H. J. Abney read “Bluebon-
nets” and other poems of collected
Texas verse by Hilton R. Greer.
Musical numbers included composi-
tions by Thurlow Lieurence. Piano
solo “By the Waters of Minneton-
ka,” Mrs. C. C. Abney. Vocal num-

The city will have a truck in the
business section of the city Friday
morning to haul off the loose dirt in
front of business houses. See that
the street and gutter in front of your
place of business is piled up and
ready when the truck comes around.
The streets and gutters are dirty
and a little effort on the part of each
business house will make quite an
improvement in the appearance of
the business section. If your next
door neighbor forgets, remind him to
sweep in front of his house early
Friday morning.

SEVEN OF ONE
And a Half Dozen of
the Other
That’s the difference be-
tween using the laundry
and relying on any method
of home-washing, even
though you don’t actually
do the work, means trouble
and worry and a day each
week practically lost. And
if you do the washing your-
self, it’s wearing on your
health.
Seven days a week if you
use the laundry—six days
if you don’t. So, between
seven of one and a half doz-
en of the other*—take your
choice! Then call us.
