K K T ITH its all-year-round bathing, excellent climate, magnificent brick-paved boulevard and ce-
W ment promenade, 4%2 miles in length, overlooking the Gulf of Mexico; wonderful 20-mile,
। .....-3 cool, dustless speedway along the beach to the end of the island; amusements of all kinds,
including bathing, fishing, boating, hunting, tennis, golfing and motoring, is it surprising that peo-
ple coming to Galveston from other parts of the United States and the world refer to Galveston as
“The Treasure Island of America”? It is only the untraveled citizen born and reared in Galveston
who takes our wonderful actualities and potentialities as a matter of course. It is only the man who
has never had an opportunity to compare Galveston with other cities, or Texas with other lands, or
the restless soul who would not be content anywhere, who can find it within his heart to “knock.”

A SIDE from being a city in which the trained mind or trained hand finds it’s greatest reward, Galveston is an ideal
A place to LIVE. With it’s 44 churches, eleven schools, modern police and fire departments, splendid parks and
public buildings, including one of the finest hospitals, medical colleges and libraries in the South, Galveston is a city
uncommonly blessed.
