NEW BUILDING
.FORCATHOL|CS
NEAR B0ERNE
Will Give Barbecue August
IL to Help Raise
fands.
oUTGRoW OLD ONE
Structure Built in 1860
No Longer Found
Adequate.

A big barbecue, which will be fea-
tured throughout the day with enter
tainment of all kinds, will be held
at the fair grounds in Boerne on Sun
day, August II, according TO an an
nouncement from the barbecue COM
mittee of the Catholic church OF
Boerne. The proceeds of the barbecue
will go to the building fund of the
new Catholic church, now being con-
structed just outside of Boerne.
The entertainment will start prompt
ly at 10 o'clock and will continue
throughout the day. The San Antonio
Postoffice Band, consisting of 40
pieces, will furnish music. Among
the entertainment features are included
horse racing and a baseball game.
Following the morning entertain
ment, the barbecue will be served at
noon. Those who attend will be given
until o'clock TO eat and then the
afternoon entertainment will begin. A
large attendance is expected from
Boerne and the surrounding country,
in addition to large number of peo-
pie who are expected to go there
from San Antonio.
All Are Invited.
The admission ticket, the price of
which is so cents for adults and %
cents for children, entities the holder
to the barbecue dinner and all enter
tainment features. Although for the
benefit of a Catholic church, the bar
becue committee wishes to make it
clear that all are invited, irrespective
Of their religion.
The site selected for the new church
is adjoining that upon which the old
one stands, just outside of Boerne.
The cornerstone was laid some weeks
ago by Father Floury, who built the
first Catholic church in Boerne in the
year 1850. This house of worship
was only 2Ox50 feet. The constantly
increasing population of Boerne neces-
states the building of new church.
The new structure is built on the same
style as the old Spanish mission and
stands high on a hill which overlooks
the town.
While visiting the church at the
time of the dedication services, Father
Floury. WHO is now in charge of the
Catholic orphanage for boys at Gal
weston, expressed his delight t being
on the spot and assisting in the ded-
icatios of new church on the iden-
tica spot where he erected his first
church there many years ago.
Members of the barbecue committee
announced that at the completion Of
the new church. which will be in
about 90 days, it will be one OF the
finest and most beautiful buildings in
Boerne and something of which the en-
tire citizenship of Boe~ne will be justly
proud.

BIG DAIRY CONFERENCE
Sap Urges Dairymen In This Terri
tory To Attend.

The National Dairy Exposition and
Worlds Dairy Congress TO be held
in Syracuse, n. Y, Philadelphia. Pa,
and Washington, ID. c.. early in
October of this year should be of
particular interest to San Antonio
and surrounding territory, according
to II. NJ. Madison, general farm
and immigration agent of the S. A..
& A. L. The largest dairy in the
world is located at Falfurrias, and
throughout this section the dairy
industry is one of the most important
sources of revenue, he said.
The S. A. & A. T.. has prepared
and is sending out circular letters
to dairymen within its territory
calling their attention to these meet
ings and urging them to attend
where practicable. 1t states that the
road will cooperate with them and
secure the best rates possible for
those who wish to attend.
Mr.. Madison said that butter
shipments over the s. A. & A. r.
have increased from S260,OOO to
100000 in the last five years. Ship
ments of cream have increased from
100000 to 100000 during the same
period. This does not take into
consideration the large amount of
dairy products carried to market by
trucks or hauled by other carriers
in this territory. No part of the
country is so favorably adapted to
the dairy industry as this section OF
Texas, according to Mr.. Madison.
The Worlds Dairy Congress will
be the largest and most important
gathering ever held anywhere in the
world TO discuss problems connect
ed with the dairy industry. Repre-
sentatives will be present from Can
ada, Mexico. and all the leading ma
tons of South America, Europe an,
Asia. The purpose is to promot,
the interests of the industr,
throughout the world by an exchang,
of experience and information from
one country TO another.
The program has been arranged (,
interest four different groups
Technical group, consisting of teach
ers, investigators and engineers; in
dustry and economics group, consist
ing of breeders and handlers of dair,
products; regulation and contro
group, consisting of national. stat
and municipal officials; and healt
group, composed of public healtl
officers.

EIGHT HOUR DAY TO
GIVE MORE MEXTCANS
WORK IN STEEL MILLS
Industry Expected to Take
Laborers From This
District.

The granting of the eight-hour day
to employees of the steel industries
will take a large number of Mexican
laborers from San Antonio, according
to Frank r. Griffin, district passen-
ger agent of the NJ. X. & I. The
factories of the East are looking more
and more to Mexico for their laborers,
he said, and most Of them are secured
from the agencies in San Antonio.
Mr.. Griffin expressed the opinion
that this practice was good thing
for San Antonio. There is always a
large number of unemployed Mexican
laborers here, he said. and most of
these sent to other places return after
they have saved n little money.
