Texas Day At
Woman's Club
Mrs. L. F. Manning was hos
toss 1o the Atlanta Womans
Club on March 7. The dub
met in the Mallard Room of
the Kickapoo Lodge for the
Annual Texas Day Program.
During the business session
plans were made for several
club members to attend the
Key District Convention at Pa
lis on March 14-1.~>. The libra-
ry chairman, Mrs. L. L. Dal-
rymple reported thai the move
of the Atlanta Public Library
to the new civic building was
completed. She stated lhat the
library has increased in mem-
bership since the move. Mrs.
Dalrymple also reported that
the new card catalog had ar-
rived and stressed its impor-
tance to the library.
The Federation Counsellor,
Mrs. P., H. Hudspeth, called
the club's attention to the "In
Memory Of" page in the Mar.
issue of "The Texas Club Wo-
man." Two former Atlanta
Womans Club members are lis
ted: Mrs. J. Orlando Hawkins
and Mrs. Ralph Hudspeth.
Against a backdrop of n
large Texas flag, the Texas
Day program was introduced

Heritage Department Chair.
man. Three Cub Scouts, in un-
iform, led the club in the
pledge of allegiance to the
flag of the United States and
the flag of Texas. The Cub
Scouts were Max Sanillin, son
of Mr. and Mrs. Max (Pete)
Sandlin, and Tom and PaUl
Arnold, sons of Dr. and Mrs
Paul J. Arnold.
Mrs. Arnold introduced Mrs
F. P. Ellis, who gave a most
clever review of the book
"Snide Lights on Texas His-
tory." Her book review was il-
lustrated with original flash
cards and posters.
Mrs. Arnold gave a brief
skelch of the author, Ananias
Twist. He was born and edu-
cated. He entered Tumbleweed
Texas State Teachers College
and after picking up all the
degrees he could find there he
was finally forced to go to
woi k. Twist did not serve with
distinction in the army. He
married early and his travels
took him to such widely seal-,
tered places as Dallas and Ft
Worth. Twist is the author of
17 books and 9 articles, none
of which has ever been pub-
lished. This study grew out of
the author's deep and abiding
interest and need for money.
Mrs. Klli ;' review of the
book was delightful. The book
is a satire on Texas. Twist
Picnics are wonderful,
but—as you drive to and
from the fun, we hope
you'll remember this —
bad accidents happen in
flood weather, too.
Be careful—going and coming—the life ycu save ir.ny be your ov.'r!

says the history of Texas l e-
gins at the beginning. Then he
proceeds to tell all about Tex-
as history. Some of the high-
lights follow:
The good Indians of Texas
are the Tay Haws, Honky
Tonks, Wacos, Tobaccostore &
Waxy Hatchets. The bad In-
dians are the Commences, Upa
tchus and the Cowawavs. The
conquisting conquistadors led
by Cora Nada, Cabaret de Va-
cuum and La Salle Hepatica,
searched for the seven cities ol
Gold: Midland, Odessa, Hous-
ton, Fort Worth, Kilgore, Dal-
las and Amarillo.
The author gives equally ac-
curate information about Tex-
as up to the present. He sees
ahead for Texas more history
and more Texas. He sees high
ways as ribbons of beauty, tied
in fine knots in the cities. lie
says Texas will always have
some water when it rains. He
sees employment for a good
man if he is the kind of man
an employer wants. Twist says
Texas will continue to have
weather.
At the conclusion of the re-
view, the author, Ananias
Twist, was revealed as the pen
name of Marguerite Potter,
Ph.D. and William Nunn, Ph.D
of the history department of
TCU. The publisher feels this
book will provide the reader
with the best and most satis-
fying laugh he has enjoyed in
many a moon. The Atlanta
Woman's Club agrees with the
publisher.
