publication of detailed folders for
two of the Statewide system of
Texas Travel Trails.
The folders, published by the
Texas Highway Department, will
serve as guides and detail nu-
merous points of interest along
the Texas Mountain Trail in far
West Texas, and the Texas For-
est Trail in deep East Texas.
The folders will lead travelers
through picturesque landscapes,
by historic sites and to colorful
cities and towns on the two of-
ficial State trails.
Connally announced the new
Statewide system of trails last
January. Each county erected
special Travel Trail signs along
the 10 official trail routes.
The Mountain Trail folder guid-

region of Texas, where 90 peaks
thrust above a mile high. The
route goes past the nation’s new-
est national park, to be developed
in the Guadalupe Mountains, and
to Davis Mountains State Park.

Dramatically .she told the story |
of Elijah, of his dejection as he
sat under the Juniper tree, sure
that he was the only one left
serving God. But God said “Eli- .
jah what are you doing here” and
' sent him forth to the better en-
vironment of Horeb where there
was work to be done.
“How do you cure the blues?”
she asked. “Our better environ-
ment can be the church. Elijah
lived simply, prayed earnestly for
direction and worked. His remedy
for Juniper tree blues can be ours
today.”
Mrs. Sid Hoffman, president,
announced June 21 as official
Pinafore Day at HemisFair. AU
; members of Texas Auxiliaries at-
! tending are asked to wear uni-
! forms and carry umbrellas since
they will be bareheaded. There
will be an umbrella parade.
Mrs. Bryan Miller presented
service pins to Mrs. Elizabeth
Wright and Mrs. Lee Cook.
J. P. Huey said there would
be many things the organization
can do when the new addition is
finished. The landscaping has not
been taken care of and the Aux-
iliary Room will need furnish-
ings. The biggest problem though
will be the increased bed service
and it is likely that special train-
ing will be available to volun-
teers to help this area.
Mrs. Laud Howell installed the
officers. Each was given a candle
which she held before her as she
took her place. The president’s
candle was cheery red like
her uniform. All other candles
were green, signifying growth. In
well chosen words Mrs. Howel)
addressed each officer and each
accepted her office by saying, “I
will”. Mrs. Sid Hoffman, out-
going president, lighted her can-
dles. It was a beautiful and im
pressive ceremony.
The new officers are Mrs. For-
est Woods, president; Mrs. Bow-
en Williamson, president-elect:
Mrs. Don Davis, Mrs. Obe McCol-
lum and Mrs. Roy Caldwell, vice
I presidents, ‘Mrs. Sid Hoffman,
Mrs. W, C. Dowdy, secretaries;
Mrs. Paul Scott, treasurer; Mrs.
Peck Graves, historian; Mrs.
James Walker, parliamentarian:
Mrs. Paul Young, auditor and
Mrs. Bob Dale, Snack Bar chair-
nan.
Flo Yesses for this meeting were
mes. Obe McCallum, W. B. Me-
allum and W. C. Dowdy.
