Crippled Children
To Get Better Care
tii'actors of the Texas Society for
Crippled Children met in Dallas last
week to lay plans for a greatly ex-
panded program including, the es-
tablishment in Dallas of a convales-
cent home, according to Dr. Sam i
Whitley of Commerce, President of 1
the Society. The proposed home is
to be in the vicinity of the new

The entire Centennial of Statehood
program will be Radicated to the
more than three quarters of a million
Texas' sons and daughters who have
served, are serving and will serve in
the combat units of the present War.
It will commemorate 100 years as a
state. It will be devoted to the hap-
piness of the people with particular
emphasis on the improvement of ag-
riculture and rural life, ar j to a ren-
naisance of interest in the country's
history. Many thousands of our Tex-
as youth are already sleeping be-
ncatn sea and sod. iMany thousands
more will join this heroic brother-
hood. They have unsheathed their
bright blades in freedoms name. It
is the fervent prayer that the cen--
tennial will be a service to the coun-
try, as pure, as unselfish, and as per-
manent in its benefits as that which
has characterized the service of our
aoldiery in their response tc the call
of their country. Their response in
which they offered and gave their
all. Greater love hath no man.

viously have had little or no oppor
tunity for education.
"Although several chapters of the
Society have provided special class
es and schools for handicapped chil-
dren, the prime work of the Society
has been in aiding children in naed
of medical attention and rehabilita-
tion," Dr. Whitley said. "With class-
rooms under State supervision, the
work of the Society will be multipli-
ed in locating and preparing these
children so that they will be able to
take advantage of this now opportun
ity."
The hill, as drafted by the Society
and passed by the 49th Legislature
provides that any child of educable
mind, six to 17 years of age, whose
physical handicaps are such that he
■cannot be educated in regular school
classes be furnished transportation
and education in special classes.
Classes may be established in any
community where there are five or
more of these exceptional children.
In districts where there is not a suf-
ficient number for the organization
of a special class, exceptional chil-
dren may be transferred to a dis-
trict where the special services are
provided.

The Texas Bluebonnet is poison-

Under Texas Skies
By A. Garland Adair, Curator of
History, Texas Memorial Museum
In the year 1845, during the
months of Jul J arid August, 61 depu
ties, representing the organized
countries of the Lone Star Republic,
met at Austin to act on annexation
of Texas to the Union, the Drafting
of the first state constitution, and
the re-location of the capitol at Aus-
tin.
They wrought well. They approv-
ed annexation. They wrote the first
state constitution. They developed
,the plan for elections by which the
sovereign citizens of Texas later cast
their votes on these subjects. And
ft;iowing this convention the capi-
toj has remained in Austin for the
fi st century of Texas statehood.
So important has the part of Aus-
tin in the history of the state that
it has been decided to leave to an
Austih Centennial Commission the
spjnsorship of the observance to take
p.ace at the capitol during the month
pi February, 1946, which will be an
even hundred years from the date
that the first state government was
Oiganized and the first United States
flag flown officially above the Tex-
as capitol. Headquarters for the Aus-
tin unit are now in the Texas Mem-
