COTTON PARADE TO Be
BIGGER AND BETTER
Farmers Throughout Central
Texas Will Start Cotton Pal.
ace With Monster Parade.

Waco, Texas .-Hundreds of farmers
throughout Central Texas are already
making inquiries in regard to the mon
ster cotton parade that will be held on
the morning of the opening day of the
exposition. Saturday, Nov. 4.
While the cotton parade last year,
headed by Governor Ferguson driving
four big mules. was admitted by all TIC
be the largest cotton parade that has
ever been held In the south. it is now
believed by those in charge of that
event that the parade this year will be
much larger. The parade and the pur
chase of large quantity of the cotton
at advantageous prices have been
source of great pleasure to the farr
ers. II is one OF their big days at the
exposition. 1t is the day when the di
rectors OF the Cotton Palace and the
people of Waco take occasion to pay
tribute to the farmers for their admir-
able ability in making McLeEnaE
county famous throughout the world
for its unsurpassed agricultural output
More bales Of cotton, more tons OF
cotton seed, more fine mules. and more
smiling and contented farmers will be
In the big cotton parade than have
ever before been seen in any parade in
any city in the world. 1t will be worth
travelling many miles to see.

who believes in 1t and who will rigid
ly select only the best music. And
where neighborhood groups have been
singing the same fine music. any great
gathering Of people would find every
body ready to take part in choral sing
ing. This would make community
music a reality. and would doubtless
SO foster the love of the art as even
tually to affect the whole musical stu
alton. Anyone who has ever had per-
sonal experience Of bringing fine
music to those who cannot afford to

pie are as keen for the best as are

Yes. TO both Of your questions. The

the Gregorian calendar but 1t does not
appear to have passed beyond its sec
