date the audience. We have always
held the coronation in the largest
theater available. but it invariably
happened that all the advantageous
seats were sold out long before the day
Of the event and all but those who APP
piled at the very opening day of the
ticket sale found it impossible to oh
tain seats.
The Order of the Alamo is pleased
to announce that these difficulties
have been largely obviated this year,
as we are already fully assured of the
use Of the new municipal auditorium
for the staging of this. San Antonios
most spectacular social exhibition. The
Order has, in the past. also been con-
siderably hampered by lack of stage
space for proper arrangement and
setting for this production, but with
the spacious stage Of the new audito'
rum available, this years spectacle
promises TO be the most brilliant in
our history.
president William Fordtran has
not yet completed the selection of all
his committees. but all the important
chairmanships have been filled and the
coronation committee is already hard
at work blocking out its preliminary
plans for the occasion. The staging
Of this exhibition has always involved
an immense amount of work and a
great sacrifice Of time on the part Of
those in charge and the great increase
in the scope Of the performance this
year will tax our resources Of time and
ability 10 the utmost, but the board Of
directors and committees are able and
enthusiastic and we look forward 10
Fiesta Week with the expectation Of
seeing a spectacle Of a magnificence
hitherto unequaled in the history Of
San Antonio

was enjoyed by all.
At late hour friends took leave
for their homes and as they departed
the love light seemed to shine forth
from their hearts to tell us good by.
The old as well as the young seem
ed to enjoy this day. There were
many grandfathers and grandmothers
present and we pray that each one
has felt that we did our best TO enter
tain them in a kind way.
We are proud of the interest that
was taken by those who do not attend
