CLTY'S SUNSHINE
THEME OF TALK AT
AID CLUB LUNCHEON
Tourist Asked Weather Bu-
reau About Climate Here
and Then Got on Train.

San Antonio'S dry. sunny climate
canot be- emphasized too much in max
ing a bid for the tourist trade. Such
is the observation of tourist who has
been 10 PRACTICAL, every winter resort
of any consequence in the country.
At the luncheon of the Advertising
Club Monday noon in the japanese tea
room of the Wolff & Marx Company,
members OF the Tourist Club told how
they had been induced to come TO San
Antonio to spend the winter and Sug-
gested ways in which other tourists
might be attracted. Besides the
tourists there were present several ex-
ccutives of Texas newspapers, some
of whom made brief comments on San
AntOniO'S climate,
The thing that induced me to spend
the winter in San Antonio" said Sam
Griffin. retired newspaper publisher OF
Iowa. was the dry, sunny climate. My
wife and for many years past have
spent the colder months of the year in
either California or Florida. There was
no comfort for us in Florida because
of the dampncss of the atmosphere. We
liked California very little better. One
day when we were trying to decide
where to spend the winter. we happened
to notice an advertisement with the
caption. The sun is shining in San
Antonio
That advertisement called us to, in

vestigate the San Antonio climate. We
went to the weather bureau in our home
town TO ascertain whether there was
much rainfall in San Antonio. The re-
suit was that we packed our trunks
and took the next train south for San
Antonio. We have been here TWO
months and like it fine"
Mr.. Griffin said that the establish
ment of n tourist clubroom was a step
in the right direction because some peo-
pie who spend the winter in San An
tionio may not care 10 play golf or go
fishing. There are many, he said, who
would much rather play checkers or
pitch hOrseshOeS.
Ralph Durkee. publicity director of
the Chamber of Commerce, told the
tourists that they would find much
better recreational and entertainment
facilities when they return next year.
He said that the Chamber of Commerce
intends to provide large, airy tourist
quarters where visitors may lounge and
make themselves comfortable.
A. l.. Shuman, advertising manager
Of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram and
president of the National Association
Of Newspaper Executives, said that he
always rejoiced when he had the OPP
portunity to visit San Antonio and that
he intended TO come here more often
in the future.
The meeting was presided over by
William Brockhousen. president of the
San Antonio Advertising Club, who
briefly described how the advertising
men assisted the Chamber of Commerce
in preparing the publicity campaign now
running in northern newspapers.

WILL PARLIAMENT
FINANCE MARRIAGE
OF DUKE OF YORK?
Custom Entities Kings Son
to Bonus, But Will
He Get 1t?

London, Jan. 23.-The coming mar
riage Of the Duke Of York TO Lady
Elizabeth DOwnes-Lyon, daughter OF
the Earl of StrathmorC. brings before
the British people question which has
not arisen in many years but, III times
past, has been a point of difference, and
sometimes of bitter feeling, between the
crown and Parliament. This question
is the financing Of younger member OF
the royal family.
The Prince of Wales has his own cs-
tates, appertaining TO his title. which
are sufficient for his support. Princess
Mary married one of the richest men
in the kingdom, Viscount Lasceles, so
there was no difficulty in her case. al
though King George had prccedents
aplenty for going 10 Parliament for Il
money grant if he had thought it necCS-
sary TO do 50.
The kings Youngest sons in start
ing households of their own. must have
subsidies appropriate to their stations
in life, and Parliament either must
make grants for them. or their father
must finance them from his own for
tune.
Although King Georges wealth is a
matter of gueSswork. he probably might
well afford 10 launch his sons in life.
financially. but cUStomm, stron- IN
England, entities him 10 expect the ma
tional excheQuCr 10 provide for them.
Custom forbids the kings sons 10
work for a living except in such en-
ployment as the army or navy. where
the nav is insignificant. 1t also COM
pels them 10 live up 10 their posi-
tons.
The embarras,in. duty fell on Queen
Victoria Of approaching Parliament for
grants for her younger children and, be-
cause she remained so lOnS on the
throne, asking something for her grand
children. the daughters of King Ed
ward. On every question there was
opposition in Parliament, which irTi-
tated the queen. Even in those days
there were radical members of the
House of Commons. who insisted on
asking what these minor members Of
the royal family did for the nation to
earn their lavish upkeep.
With labor members constituting the
second party in the lower house Of
Parliament and with more than a mil
lion unemployed in the country, any
proposal to finance the Duke of York
on any princely scale. either in the
form of a lump sum or an annuity, is
certain to bring on a disagreeable de-
bate.
The duke has no great fortune of his
own. nor has his bride-to-bc. whose
family wealth is mostly in tradition and
castles, and, even for the latter. there
is a very poor market tf11y, there be-
ing far more castles on sale than buy

Pitiable Case Comes
to Attention of
Salvation Army Corps

A most pitiable case was recently
investigated by Ensign Lawrence of
the Salvation Army in his work in a
neighboring city. Ensign Lawrence
was notified that a man and his wife.
both blind were in hard circum-
stances, and he went to the home,
finding that the woman who had sup
ported her blind husband for some
time, had herself gone blind and that
both were at the time being taken
care of by man who had four chill
dren and was receiving but $3.50 a
week. This man had supported them
on this meagre salary for three weeks
before the Salvation Army heard of
the case. Arrangements have been
made by Mr.. Lawrence whereby they
will be taken care of and will later
receive treatment at a hospital.
