ther who has brought up to man-
hood a boy who can gain such
testimony from his fellows, and
have it borne out • and prov-
en in every act of his life, has,
without doubt, performed- well
her Heaven-appointed 1 ask and
can well rejoice in her son. I
tender you my most sincere res-
pect and love, just in the full
measure in which ‘our’ boy has
gained them.
“His record I consider truly
remarkable, and I know he owes
more than he or I can realize to
his mother. The way in which
fee came to our school and went
straight to the heart /of things
and people is a noble augury of
what he will make of life.I wish
you could have known the help
and comfort he was in all the
trials and hard work of the
commencement time. 'He was
always there, always ready ; nev-
physically, mentally and morally,
and he made a fine appearance
on the stage, too ;5 straight and
ready; acting Franio to the life
laughing; speaking his part as
naturally as if talking to his
friends, and making us all as
proud of him as we could be.
Of course, you know, he gradu-
ated with honor, his grades be-
ing among the highest in the,,
class; conduct perfect, and in-
fluence in the school wonderful.
He was assistant treasurer of the
class and general helper in chief.
The commencement was the big-
gest and most successful we have
ever had, and you may be sure
yo*ur boy bore-his part worthily
and well.”

HARBOR CITT * ARANSAS PASS
There is a better feeling in Aransas Pass towards Harbor. City and In-
gleside. More lots at Ingleside and Harbor City have been sold in Aransas
Pass than in any other town; these have been sold to people on the ground
who made their own selections. Harbor City and Aransas Pass are more
than neighbors; they are pratically units of one big proposition, and the devel-
opment of either helps the other also.
We have made large reservations at Harbor City for terminal and indus-
trial sites which cannot be had at Aransas Pass without great cost. Most fac-
tories require a donated site and bonus. You cannot have oil refineries in
Aransas Pass because of the fire risk and the large area required for tank farms.
We think we have the proper location on 12 feet-of water for oil refineries. We have sub-
mitted a proposition to the government committee for making Harbor City the terminus of their'
proposed pipe line from Oklahoma and for their 20,000-barrel refinery. We may, not get it, but
some company will build a refinery around this port soon. If they decide on Aransas Pass we
will do our part to land it. if any industry wants to come to either place we will be ready to
work hard to land it.
Aransas Pass needs the road to Harbor City as much .as .Harbor City... needs-ih. It needs
the fine beach at Harbor City when Ihis road is completed; we want.you to feel that Harbor City
is ybur resort. We want to show you what we have to ofier.
