It was nice to say "howdy* to so
many of our friends in Austin last
week. We walked up to the Capi-
tol building just as the sun’s last
rays flickered over the grounds
and bathed the historical statues in
a soft yellow light. Above, the
great capitol dome stood out in the
fading sunlight, and like a tiny
wraith, the statue of liberty held a-
loft the lone star in her graceful
fingers. We were thrilled to gaze
upon the beauty around us and to
know that Texas is. our native state.
'Breathes there the rnan with soul
so dead, who never to himself hath
said, this is my own, my native land*
Naturally we went to the House
of Representatives first, and though
it was after six o'clock, found our
own representative, J. Carroll Mc-
Connell on the job,?and enjoyed a
short visit with him. Rep. McCon-
nell seemed to fit quite naturally
into his surroundings and from all
reports has been making a very
good reputation for himself at the
capitol.
It was a pleasant surprise to find*
Miss Wilina Goldesberry of Strawn,
whose pretty face we have been
missing in that city, in Senator
Woodruff’s office as his private sec-
retary. Senator Woodruff assurrd
us that he was behind the Brazos
River bill 100 per cent, and that he
felt sure it would be passed in
Washington. He predicts quite a
number of condemnation suits how-
ever after the project is passed be-
fore actual work could begin. Sen-
ator Woodruff has changed quite
n bit since we saw him last. He
has lost that dejected bachelor look
and now has a charming wife to
help him solve his senatorial prob-
lems.
We also had the pleasure of
shaking the governor’s hand at the
press convention, where he was the
outstanding speaker at the opening
session. Gov. Allred did not make
a speech to the press members, he
just told some amusing experiences
since being in the governor's chair.
He was enthusiastically greeted by
press members who enjoyed his
short talk immensely.
A tour of the capitol city includ-
ed a visit to the O. Henry shrine,
and the historical old mansion of
Ex-governor Pease. The latter is a
rambling red brick home, with huge
