Letter From

Dear Reader
Sen Antonio, Tuesday.-YOu can't
imagine how beautiful it is down here.
There are 50 many beautiful parks,
and great crowds are found in them
every day. The San Antonio river
winds through the town and on either
bank Of the river electric lights-red,
white. and green. are attached To the
tree trunks, and at night It looks like
fairy land.
The city seems to be on a boom. at
least there is number Of buildings
going up, and lot of paving being
done. / had always thought the birds
came iouth in winter. but they surely
don't come here, for | haven't seen
any but blackbirds and sparrows since
came.
Miss Eva Miller left yesterday for
fort Worth. / surely did enjoy her
visit We were going somewhere all
the time, and she learned a great
deal about this historic old town.
Miss Ruth Sims, who formerly lived
near Mexico. is here visiting her sis
ter, Mrs. Hagelstein. / met a fine
man the other day who married a
Bocnville girl and cousin Of Mrs.
Horace Barks. His name ia Watson.
There are many Catholics Schools
here, and most of the richest people
are Catholics. When one. makes a
purchase in a store, if it is only ten
cent handkerchief, the clerk will say,
Where shall l have it sentf' If you
see woman carrying a bundle, you
can be sure she is tourist.
The Mexicans do all the work on
the streets, and the newsboys are lit
tie Mexicans. They have Xmas.
Tree for them every year, and last
year they planted a good sized one in
Alamo Plaza, and they are going to
use it permanently. | suggested to
some Of the Elks that they do that
and they hooted at the idea, but was
right, for it can be done. The neg
roes carry all their bundles on their
heads instead Of in their arms.
found st. Louis Republic yes
terday in the public library, and it
had Joy Kistler's picture in it. I en-
joyed the paper as much as "a letter
from home."
DR.. Carl Pasqueth sent me his pic
ture taken in the snow, with the an
nouncement that it was ten degrees
below. Now whenever | get too warm
l go look at the picture, and cool off
at once.

The house was gaily decorated with
cupids, hearts, and arrows. Games
in accord with the day were played.
Much fun was created by blind fold
ing the guests and allowing them to
clip their fortunes, Suspended from
"a crimson ribbon were small bags,
each containing some article which
formed a basis for a rhymed fortune
written upon a cupid's dart attached
to the bag. A guessing contest whose
answers were things our grandmoth-
ers never knew" made the guests
some Of their blessings. The prize, a
beautifully carved paper knife. was
won by Mr.. Rich. A closed box con-
tanning three articles, one Of utility,
one Of sentiment and one Of adorn-
ment, was offered to the contents Of
the box. Miss Wells conducted the
contest and as each guest was allow
ed to ask one question concerning each
article she afforded much merriment
by her witty and evasive answers.
Mrs. Strunk proved to be the best
guesser, and was awarded the box.
A salad course was served, and after
parting game Of "My Grandmoth-
er's Cat" the guests took reluctant
leave. Mrs. Hougland was assisted
by her corps Of South Side teachers,
