OYSTERS OF POINT
ISABEL ARE WORLD
BEATERS, DECLARES

William E. Porter, well known bank
er of Houston and an oyster connois-
seur Of international repute. has been
cpending several days the past week in
close communion with the oysters at
Point Isabel and declares that they are
world heaters" Mr.. Porter left Hous-
ton ten days ago on vacation trip to
Mexico, and decided to inspect the Rio
Grande Valley, section of the state
he had never visited. Having heard Of
the superior qualities Of Point Isabel
oysters-famous as the only "all-the-
year-around" oysters in the world he
availed himself of the opportunity Of
getting better acquainted with the va
riety. and has stayed with them eve
since, merely getting away from Point
Isabel occasionally for brief trips
around the Valley.
The trip which Mr.. Porter contem-
plated when he left Houston has been
delayed day after day while Mr.. Porter
looked upon the oysters while they were
fresh. He admitted this morning that it
may be week or ten days before he
can get away. but proposes to return at
the earliest opportunity.
George Bailey Of the Houston Post
learned Of Mr.. Porter's sojourn in the
Rio Grande Valley. and gave the fol-
lowing details in his column yesterday:
william +. Porter. now visiting in
Brownsville. sends US a picture postal
Of the international bridge. on the
other end Of which lies the little Mexi
can city Of Matamoros. Mr.. Porter Is
spending most of his time down there in
Matamoros, where the soft harmonies
Of Mexican music enthrall him. He
mentions a Matamoros dinner og ven
ison, wild turkey and quail with at. Of
Chateau Bouillac to wash itNdown. Ma
tamoros is the town in which we were
able to locate, but not see, the old
familiar brass rail. We saw where 1t
was. but il was completely covered up
with feet. A bon vivant like Bill Por-
ter will enjoy the change Of fare which
Matamoros supplies. but he will never
find anything there to equal the fine
soda pop which Houstonians have in
such superabundance."
