LOCAL si PERSONAL
-The new booklet “Texas” re-
cently issued by the passenger
department of the San Antonio
and Aransas Pass railway, is in
much demand as it shows the
new deep water harbor and envi-
ronments better than any publi-
cation ever produced by the de-
partment. The Chamber of Com-
merce has received about 1,000
and those desiring one can obtain
the same by calling on or writing
the Secretary, Marion Adams.
The concise statements regarding
the city of Aransas Pass and the
official United States coast and
geodetic survey map make it es-
pecially desirable to send away to
your friends who might become
interested in this section of the
Gulf coast. ,

as a European war. Cattle are
plentiful and fat and prices are
high and as a consequence the
money stringency manifest in the
cotton belt is not felt in that sec-
tion. '
