In the death of Col. Henry
Exall, Texas has lost its master
optimist. His life was a tremen-
dous answer to the pessimist,
the doubter and the indifferent.
His body returns to dust, but
his spirit will lead the pioneers
of progress for generations to
come and his life stands as a
beacon light to hope and a chal-
lenge to despair. He was more
than a builder—he was a creator
of human purposes and an or-
ganizer of mankind. He was
one of the most kingly men that
America ever produced and he
crowned his life with the jewels
of self-sacrifice. He loved every-
body and his magnetic personali-
ty swung men around him.
His titanic nature shook the
stats. Hi3 life is one of the
state's greatest heritages. He
taught lessons in citizenship
that made patriotis common and
benevolence popular. His iron
courage, sublime faith and magic
enthusiasm lifted him into an al-
itude of greatness that made
ds iife little les3 than a miracle,
lis iron courage, sublime faith
3nd magic enthusiasm lifted him
into an altitude of greeteess thatv
rjiade his life little less than a'
rlAcIe. He is gone, kut we can
ail !lwell in the reflection of his
glory, warm in the glow of his
iul and walk in the pathway
il uminated by the powerful rays
oj his mighty life-
Texas has had none of the Ex-
a! I type to come before and none
W 11 follow. He was in a class
bj himself.

Iroad whose citizens are most

Invest Texas Money in Texas.
The passing of one of our
largest industrial concerns from
Texas should serve to emphasize
the importance of investing Tex-
as money in Texas properties.
We have the business geniuses
suffiqiensly powerful to burst
ope#'' new pathways of progress,
but fnany of our financial chief-
tains look askanoe upon Texas
rities unless it is a vendor’s
it will draw money like a cart
horse.
The spirit of ownshership of
industrp does not abound in local
financial circles. Our builders
are compelled to sell in a forsign
market, but with a title goes the
birthright of industry and the
passing of opportunity to become
a powerful factor in the world’s
trade. If our money- only had
