and as n result all previous engagements

programme was changed, and all our people
inted in the one grand purpose--that Of
giving to the brave and patriotic Texas
volunteers the enthusiastic ovation they so
well deserved. There was nothing else
talked about. It was the theme OF CONVEX
sation at all the hotels, the business houses
and the public resorts. and who can tell
tha heart pictures produced In private
homes by the heralded announcement that
some missing member OF the family circle
would soon smile again on the loved ones
he had so recently parted from? Who can
measure the depth of feeling with which
