PLAYGROUND

Many years ago even
b before Texas was
under the flag of the
United States, Port
Isabel was a resort
famed even in the Old
Country for its climate
and its beaches.
Dons of Spain and
Mexico came here year
after year not only for
pleasure but for health.
The fishing at Port
Isabel IS considered the
worlds finest. Pres
ident H ardin e and
many statesmen of
America and Europe
have fished here for the
king of all fish, the
Silver Tarpon. No
place offers a greater
variety, think Of this:
trout, pike, reddish,
jackfish, pompano o,
sheepshead, croaker,
mullet. mackerel, rib
bon fish, porpoise and
giant Jewish often
weighing 600 pounds.
Plenty Of oysters.
shrimps and crabs. All
OF these and many
others may be found
in the Bay, Pass or
Gulf ... Come try it.

GROWTH

You have seen great
cities grow | m
overnight, you have
often said, II could
have bought that lot
for a few hundred dol
lars, now it is worth
thousands" or "If |
had started business
there a few years ago
it would have been
worth a fortune to-
day." We truthfully
believe that Port Isabel
will be, in the next 5
years, the most talked
Of city in the United
States. Nature has
given it more than its
share. Port Isabel is
just started d. You
should know more
about it. We will be
pleased to furnish you
information with no
bligatio n on your
part.

Opportunity
Years ago, before
civil strife and war,
Port Isabel was
the most important
port south of New
Orleans. War left
it in ruins, but de-
mand and coopera-
ton are rebuilding
a far o import
ant city than was
ever dreamed Of be-
fore.
This is no idle
statement; it is but
the truth. Nothing
can stop Port Isa-
bel. If tomorrow
every man, woman
and child should
leave and the city
should burn to the
ground, it would
rise again. No truer
test Of its greatness
can be found than
the fact that even
though it was laid
in ruins, it has risen
again, until today
it is being watched
by the entire ma
ton.

WHAT he needed was friend with whom

the things dear to his Tartar mind; horses,
poetry, perhaps a stirring retelling of former,
epic deeds Of prowess i. and less than
spears toss away dwelled the Abdah. City
bred, he-and they country-bred; yet men Of
his own race.
They could not avoid speaking to him on af-
fairs Of local administration. Otherwise when
ever ne met them, there was none to wish him
the decent time of day. For there was his
covenant with Ali Hassan that silence meant
safety, and the latter's order to his tribe:
peace I have sworn. Peace shall keep.
hate him. Let silence be about him like
cloak"
So there was none even to give him q friendly
look with the exception Of Khaizaran, the
priests gray-haired wife, who occasionally
would look at him as if to say, II am sorry for
you"
And then one day there was an end to silence,
II not to hate, when TO the valley came a russell
haired girl whose name was Kothra, which
means Born-in-a-Gr Place
Here, in her name you have the giSt Of her
story.
For had she been city bred or country bred,
hers would have been proper MosleEn name
Ayesha or Miriam or belize, Zemzem. But she
was wilderness bred, belonging to one Of the
small scattered clans that cared for neither
trade nor husbandry; that Summer and Winter
with sky serene and sunny or the snow thud-
ding down In binding eddies, roamed through
the steppes and hills.
KOthra, whose parents were dead, had been
following her clans fortalnes-and, presently

from the Abdah Valley, tornado overlook

sprained and swollen; her body q mass OF cuts
and bruises. He carried her to his home, gave
her food and shelter, bandaged her wounds:
and IL was the law Of the steppe that, wait and

after be captive to his sword. his slave If he
wished, or wife-whatever way his fancy hap

But"

you not understand our Tartar tongue? No,
no, moi"
A few days later she was up and about hob
bling ON two sticks through the village streets,
where the AbdaH women-since gossip Is quick
blown wide blown from house to house-stared
after her and made audible comment.
what can he see in her?" shrilly demanded
the mother of three unmarried daughters
"Allah-what Is she with her airs and graces
but whelp Of the wilderness?" cried Kha!zaran
who should have been tolerant and kindly,
being an old woman and the priests wife.
Kothra heard. She did not mind. She was
indeed rather pleased at the wOmen's envy and
jealousy. She smiled-was still smiling when,
turning the corner of the mosque, she found
herself confronted by Mehmet Var, who had
come to the valley to see about taxes.

poured out his heart to her and had told her
about the Grand Khans warning and the
covenant Of silence. Now they saw each other;
they were alone seemed hidden from the worlds
turmoil in the little copse behind the mosque
and is it not strange that, Is quickly
as love had come to Ali HasSan, so quickly love
came to Mehmet Var?
"By the prophet" he thought, .Hbut this is
one whose face is like bafning sweet melody of
SPRING. And, being the sort of man with
whom to see was to feel, to feel was to act or,
at least, to speak, he had held out q OBTAINING
hand as she was about to pass and said:
There Is one thing that cannot deny"
"WhAt is this thing2" she asked.
"The matter Of your mouth, o delight"
"Eh?"
"A mouth for which o man would do great
deeds and sin great sins. And"-coming step
nearer-"One thing more"
She looked at him. Her heart drummed.

that cleared the mist Of passion from Meh-
NETS brain when he saw Ali Hassan approach

leopard might.
KOthra was frightened and yet thrilled as
she saw both mems hands reach for their sword
hilts.
"By my honor" cried the chief, ''but am
sorry that must take pretty lads life be-
cause Of Q mere woman. :"
So again, as on that morning when the Grand
Khan had appointed Mehmet Var governor.
they were about to have at each other with
CHATTER Of Ion-when again, suddenly, sharply,
both mems thoughts clicked to their sovereign
lords grim warning and again, at once, their
hands dropped away from their sword hits
and they stared at each other rather like hurt,
puzzled children.
Finally the captain spoke:
I'VE have broken our covenant Of silence.
Why not break our other covenant3"
you mean
Our covenant Of enmity, of hate"
"I cannot" came the simple reply
why not? Can we eat our hate? Can we
