Peeler, says: "He IS an industrial and social exponent, as applied to the development of trade conditions of international reputation. In apprecia- tion of his ability along these lines, he was placed upon the National Pay Roll by the great Military Ruler of our sister Republic. He has served as a Presidential Toastmaster. is a University (Texas) graduate and a retired bank president, and for 18 years has been a close student of industrial development and has dedicated his life to this work." The Standard Blue Book Publications bear the endorsement of some one thousand commercial organizations, business men, commercial institutions and banking houses throughout the United States. Correspondence solicited. The Standard Blue Book of Texas Object, Plan and Effectiveness of the Standard Bine Book Publications By A. J. PEELER Author, Owner and Publisher After several months of pleasant labor, intermingled with most agreeable associations, we submit without an apology the Standard Blue Book of Texas, Edition de Luxe of Dallas and Trade Territory. During the last five years we have completed and issued separate and exclusive Editions de Luxe of the Standard Blue Book on the States of Oklahoma, Arkansas and Tennessee; Houston, Texas; Beaumont, Texas; East Texas; including this book on Dallas, Texas, and Trade Territory, probably the strongest works ever issued on the commercial, social and intellectual progress of any states or cities in the American Union. Our plan of bringing together and blending the commercial conditions of a community and state into a happy, entertaining and attractive volume is original and un que. and we believe to be the most effective and powerful method of presenting the actual conditions o5 a state or a country to the world. THE ADVERTISING SECTION The Advertising Section is positively limited so as to enable the work to go through the mails at a reasonable expense, reaching the marts of trade and the centers of population throughout the United States and European countries, and admits only such persons, firms or corporations as can establish a record for integrity and honesty and whose express purposes are clearly and substantially trustworthy and honest. Thorough investigations are specifically made in each and every instance as regards both the advertiser and the advertisement. Standing behind this section is the written guarantee of A. J. Peeler & Co., the publishers, and the assurance that individual investigation has been made with unfaltering exactness and that every person contained in this section, from an advertising standpoint, is deserving of public confidence. The advertising section of the Standard Blue Book publications is simply the channel of com- munication between honest persons engaged in straightforward business pursuits upon a basis of recti- tude, valid declarations and substantiated facts. It will be our constant aim and ambition to hold this department to the high commercial con- fidence and prestige it has enjoyed in the past. THE MATERIAL SELECTED The material selected herein exploiting the commercial representation of the respective cities included herein has been properly and duly submitted by us to their various Commercial Clubs, Boards of Trade and Chambers of Commerce for approval, and meritorious citizenship has been first and fore- most considered. Our best effort has been made to give the world a good, clean, reliable, trustworthy publi- cation. FREE FROM PAID PHOTOS AND -WRITE-UPS." The Standard Blue Book of Texas I 1 SOCIAL SECTION Our Standard Blue Book publications are fashioned after the Blue Books issued by the United Slates Government on trade conditions, blended with the improved idea of the Social Blue Book of Euro- pean countries with harmonious perfection. The social section of the Standard Blue Book of Texas, Edition de Luxe of Dallas and Trade Terri- tory, like all of our other State and National publications, is held primarily above a money consideration, and meritorious citizenship will be first and foremost considered. Every personal illustration contained in the work of prominent club, musical, literary, social, professional and commercial leaders of the State will be selected under the advice of an advisory board, and the pretentious and mediocre will be excluded. We will eliminate from the Standard Blue Book publications, with but rare exceptions, personal sketches of the living and under no circumstances indulge in "write-ups" and cheap and extravagant flattery, reserving the right only to preserve historical data in perpetuating some distinguished pioneer citizen. There will be no space rates charged for any personal photographic illustration in any of the Standard Blue Book publications, but all photographs and engravings must be furnished without cost to publishers to insure insertion. We will properly and justly recognize unselfish and patriotic assistance given us in making this work a success in behalf of civic, social and industrial pride in the State's best interest by dedicating a conspicuous part in the Blue Book for the enrollment of such names of the citizens of Texas to whom honors are meritoriously due. COMMANDING INFLUENCE The rapid industrial, educational and social development of Imperial Texas demands the production in permanent form, from time to time, of a correct account of the statistical progress, com- mercial and social advantages and club life of its various cities, portraying therein the names and faces of their men and women that have assisted materially in the general welfare and progress of the country and whose lives have stood for the highest order of enlightened progress. We believe this feature alone gives the work a commanding influence before the American people. CONFIDENCE OF FOREIGN CAPITAL It will be observed that we have brought into the work the personality of many of the citizens, because in so doing we wished to make plain and fully exploit our views upon a subject to which we have given years of experience and thought. We believe, to encourage a better class of permanent citizenship and to gain the confidence of foreign capital and interest it in our prolific opportunities, it is just as neces- sary to show the refinement and stability of a community as it is to give statistical data setting out strictly the commercial advantages. STATE RECORD AND FAMILY SOUVENIR Then again, outside of all business considerations, this work in years to come will be prized be- yond a money value as a State record and family souvenir, giving the living a lasting pleasure in com- memorating the names and faces of those loved ones long since passed away to the Great Beyond, and serving as a tribute of respect to those who have done their part faithfully and well in the race and pro- gress of human life. The Standard Blue Book of Texas WORTHY OF REPRESENTATION In the compilation of this work we have faithfully and honestly tried to give everyone worthy of representation in the cities of this State treated upon in this edition, a place in this book. We have extended a personal invitation to every eligible citizen to help us make the Standard Blue Book of Texas, Edition de Luxe of Dallas and Trade Territory, the greatest work of its kind ever issued, and we are pleased to say that we have had a strong support along these lines and have no hesitation in saying that we present to the public the most representative work of its kind ever issued on this trade territory. INDISPENSABLE TO THE HOME We have incorporated in this work such matters as to make it indispensable to the home as a constant reference book, and it will there occupy the same relative position as the city directory does in the business world, as well as financial and social guide book. This work will be invaluable lo the merchant, the hanker, the manufacturer and business house of every nature as the only direct, permanent, reliable method in reaching the wealth and culture of a community. POWERFUL ADVERTISING MEDIUM It is the only possible way in which an advertisement can reach the banking and bond houses, stock exchanges and the commercial institutions of this and other States, and the drawing rooms and libraries of the wealthy, and be made lasting and perpetual. It will increase trade and enhance property Values. The medium and plan bears the endorsements of one thousand commercial organizations, merchants' associations, ad clubs, banking houses and busi- ness men throughout the United States, including the unqualified support evidenced by written testi- monials from every commercial organization and business men's club and merchants' association from three of your adjoining states. AS AN AUTHORITY This work is accepted as an authority and as a reliable guide by bond brokers, banking institu- tions, public service corporations, the homeseeker, investor, tourist, and capitalist throughout the United States and will be a powerful medium in upbuilding the community, introducing one section of the State, their people and industries to the other and in placing business interests in touch with capital seeking investment. It can readily be seen that we have diverged from all stereotyped methods in the plan and preparation of this work and have blazed out unaided through virgin forests in hope of new discover- ies in ideas and methods, seeking to bring together, if possible, a happy combination of the social and poetic side of life, intermingled and blended with the prosaic conditions of commercialism and wealth into a happy union, a crystallized charm of entertaining, reflection and study as well as a peerless and most powerful advertising medium. DEDICATION—SUCCESS IS DUE If we have achieved any measure of success we want to take this opportunity to say that our success is due in part to the useful, unselfish and progressive citizens, corporations and business firms of this section of Texas, whose names are found in the classification of prominent business men in the first The Standard Blue Book of Texas I 5 part of this volume; also to J. R. Babcock and J, W. Register, the courteous and able Secretaries respectively of the Dallas Chamber of Commerce and Commercial Club of Mineral Wells, to whom this book is dedicated. Without this aid and unqualified support, zeal and unselfish patriotic devotion to their State sections such an undertaking would have been, on our part, the wildest folly. UNLIMITED AND MATCHLESS RESOURCES We do not deem it important to go into a full detailed account of the contents of this volume, as the book will speak for itself, but there is no getting around these important facts that Dallas and Trade Territory with her extensive diversified farming interests and great agricultural resources, her many and great facilities of railroad and deep water transportation, with her increasing manufacturing enter- prises, is causing the world to sit up and take notice of the marvelous resources of North Texas and her great metropolis. It is a well-known fact that the cities of Texas, on the completion of the great Panama Canal, will be amply prepared to take care of themselves in the foreign trade and enjoy their pro rata benefits now annually amounting to five and a quarter billion dollars, and will materially assist in increasing that trade. DALLAS AND TRADE TERRITORY It has also been our pleasure to show in this volume that Dallas and her trade territory is in the heart of one of the richest agricultural countries on Earth and is in the center of population of Texas with over one-third of the population of the entire State living within a radius of one hundred miles; that Dallas and her trade territory is the principal beneficiary of the great cotton crop of Texas (includ- ing value of cotton seed, amounting last year to over $225,348,000.00, an average of 20 per cent of the world product of 27 per cent of the crop of the United States;) that Dallas is the banking center of Texas and the Great Southwest and is able to take care of the demands of Trade, home industry and assist honest capital; the State with over 1,110 banks with individual deposits of over $200,000,000.00, gives Dallas and trade territory a commanding position among her sister cities of the United States; that Dallas is the principal city of a surrounding territory whose manufactured products annually exceed $20,000,000.00 THE TRUTH IS GOOD ENOUGH It is our purpose to do our part in putting the world in touch with all of these facts and the great possibilities of capital seeking profitable investment, and tell the world that the truth is good enough jot Dallas and her trade territory. We are going to show the world that Dallas with her population of 100,000 has less competition, more money per capita, prosperity and opportunites than any city of like size on the American continent, and that its natural conditions and wonderful resources could easily support a city of one-half million population. The throbbing and pulsating heart of the greatest and wealthiest undeveloped territory of raw material and matchless resources of any State on the American continent now desires to take advantage of her material and favorable trade conditions and claim her proper place among her sister States and cities of the American Union. Her position is enviable and almost invulnerable. The Standard Blue Book of Texas 17 The State of Texas Texas, an Empire within itself, now has the honor of being the first state of the American Union in point of value of her principal farming crop, aggregating three hundred and sixty-four million one hundred and ten thousand dollars, forcing Illinois to the second place. Texas is now in the flower of her development, historically speaking, the Territory of Texas seceded from Mexico in 1836, the climax of which was brought about by Gen. Sam Houston at the MR. E. P. TURNER General Passenger and Ticket Agent. T. & P. Ry. MR. W. G. CRUSH General Passenger Agent. M. K. & T. Ry. Co. ot Texas Battle of San Jacinto with six hundred men conquering Gen. Santa Anna 'The Napoleon of the South- west" with his army of six thousand Mexicans. Texas has owed allegiance to six governments and has been under as many flags. There have waved over her in token of sovereignty the Fleur-de-lis of France, the Royal Banner of Spain, the Snake and Eagle of the Mexican Republic, the Lone Star of the Republic of Texas, the Stars and Stripes of the American Union and the Stars and Bars of the Southern Confederacy. Her history is attractive and romantic, dating back to the inception of the older states. A European Colony was founded on her soil in the seventeenth century, on the banks of the Lavaca River was established the first European Colony in Texas where a fort was erected, and known as St. Louis. The Standard Blue Book of Texas 19 Texas has 274,000 square miles in area. Out of the vast acreage of land every state could be carved and each state having its products, advantages and possibilities, the variety of climate, soil and conditions being such as to give Texas every range in the field of agriculture, stock raising and mineral resources. In order to give you a more exact idea of its exact size, we call your attention to this fact: if Texas were a great trap door, hinged on the state of Louisiana and we could turn it over, it would cover the Gulf States, part of Arkansas, Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina and all of South Carolina, and then a small portion of it would lap over into the Atlantic Ocean ; furthermore, placing the population of the world at one billion five hundred million people, you could place the entire population in Texas, giving a ten acre lot to each head of the family and there would still remain fifty thousand vacant lots. Its longest distance from north to south is the same as from New York to Chicago, its greatest distance from East to West is the same as from Shreveport, Louisiana, to Richmond, Virginia. No one can make a mistake by coming to Texas; society is wholesome, its lands are fertile and can be bought reasonable. The "black belt" is probably the most fertile portion of Texas, of which Dallas and Trade Territory is in the center. East Texas has its unlimited supply of iron ore and an abundance of fertile lands whereon can be grown all kinds of fruit and tobacco, and containing thousands of acres of virgin forests. West Texas has her thriving cities and great cattle industry, including the great "Panhandle Country," new and wonderfully promising in its agricultural developments. North Texas with its rich soil and diversified farming produces nearly everything under the sun, and South Texas with her oil, rice, truck farming and tropical fruits insures great possibilities for its future development.

Cranfill The Standard Blue Book of Texas 23 Dallas, the Metropolis of the Southw est A Good l^lace to Live Dallas is a City of elegant homes, splendid churches, well equipped schools and unsurpassed social conditions. It offers that rare combination of opportunities to enjoy health, wealth and happi- ness, the three jewels of man's existence. It is therefore a most ideal place to live. With her many and varied industrial institutions and the continual and increasing growth, Dallas is ever affording new and splendid opportunities for men wealth bent, and in this day of push and energy no ambitious man cares to live where he cannot make money. Wealth alone is of little account unless its possessor also enjoys health and happiness. Socially Dallas has a welcome for representatives of every respectable stratum of humanity. She has not her Ghetto nor her Chinatown, nor has she the sensation-mad gilded autocrats that make gay Gotham go round in a giddy whirl, but she has that great middle class of citizenry whose social environments and whose home lives make the American family life the best in the world. Some of the things that make Dallas a good place to live are: Churches of every denomination, a splendid system of public schools, four colleges, several high-class preparatory schools, unexcelled social clubs, all kinds of fraternal organizations, half a dozen theaters, several parks and playgrounds, numerous charitable organizations, beautiful and exclusive residence sections, good street car service, gas, well lighted streets, high-class hotels and boarding houses, fine hospitals and sanitariums, a low tax rate and the best form of municipal government in the world. • Not less than $2,076,000 is invested in buildings, and lots, equipment of Dallas colleges, acade- mies and schools, public and private. About 25,000 students of all ages are enrolled in the educational institutions of Dallas, 16,596 of whom are in the public schools. GEOGRAPHY, CLIMATE AND HEALTH. There is no more important item in life of any individual than health. There is nothing so menacing to a large community as the carelessness of the few, when many may be affected by it. Dallas is unusually protected, not only by location and climate conditions, but by a commission form of Munici- pal government, whose watchword is the welfare of the city from every standpoint. Conditions ccn- ducive to good health are as carefully guarded as those of any other department of the city government. The health department is equipped with an efficient corps of competent inspectors whose duties ?re to see that all ordinances relating to the general health are rigidly observed. By reason of the ideal geographical location and climatic conditions Dallas has never had an epidemic, and during many years with loosely enforced health laws, the death rate has been unusually low. With an efficient Board of Health such as is now enjoyed by the city, the conditions have been very much improved, with brighter prospects for the future health of the metropolis of the Southwest. Dallas lies in an undulating country at the head of navigation on the Trinity River which flows Southeast through the middle of the City. The normal level of the river at the foot of Commerce Street is 420 feet above the sea. Oak Cliff on the hills of the West rises 75 feet higher and East Dallas has as much as 90 feet advantage. The City's longest levels lie North and South The atmosphere is dry and exhilarating. The highest summer temperature has been 1 16 degrees (August, 1909), and the lowest 10 degrees below zero (February, 1899). The mean annual temperature for years has been 65 degrees. There is never a time when the wind is not moving and the average throughout the year is about 10 miles an hour. The average annual rainfall is 35 inches. The Standard Blue Book of Texas 25 The Standard Blue Book of Texas 27 CIVIC AND RELIGIOUS LIFE. It is estimated that 40,000 persons in Dallas are church members. There are 82 churches and chapels for white persons and 27 churches for negroes, a total of 109 places for public worship. Growing out of church work are two rescue homes for women, three settlement homes, six public nurseries and day homes, three orphanages, one Catholic sanitarium, one Baptist sanitarium, three special disease sanitariums, one Children's hospital, one colored hospital, four medical colleges and a number of de- nominationally maintained schools by night and by day. The Young Men's Christian Association has a $175,000 building and 3,200 members with six secretaries in charge of the work. The Young Women's Christian Association has its quarters and a membership of more than two hundred young working women. The Public Library costing $150,000 has more than 15,000 volumes. Handsome homes are owned and maintained by the Elks, Dallas Columbian, Tennis, Golf Turners Swiss, Texas Art League, Wah Hoo, Daughtery Lake, Fin and Feather, Trinity Rod and Gun and Eagles Clubs. PARKS AND PLEASURE RESORTS. No other city in the Southwest is so well equipped with places of outdoor amusement as is Dallas. There are some seven or eight parks and playgrounds owned by the city and comprising several hundred acres as well as a dozen or more large privately owned parks and pleasure resorts. Within recent years the park system of the City has been greatly developed. Starting with the City Park of 16 acres, as a nuclues. the city has within a few years added Fair Park of 127 acres, Marsalis or Forest Park in Oak Cliff with 36 acres, and Oak Lawn Park in North Dallas with about 28 acres. In addition to these large park properties there have also been bought and equipped several public playgrounds. Each section of the city is equipped with its own park. East Dallas has the mammoth Fair Park of 127 acres and with improvements valued at $500,000. This is the chief amusement park of the Southwest. In it are entertained the Fair visitors during two weeks each year and for the balance of the year the place is thrown open for the benefit of the public. It is a second Coney Island or White CITY. The City Park is the beauty spot of the city. It is located in South Dallas on Ervay, Gano and Park streets and is a delightful retreat for seekers of fresh air on warm days. For the Oak Cliff section the city has recently acquired at a cost of $15,000 the Marsalis Park of 36 acres in South Oak Cliff. It is a natural beauty spot and is being shaped up by a landscape gardener. PUBLIC PLAYGROUNDS. Dallas is making rapid progress in the development of a play ground system. Trinity Play Park is the best playground in the State and the peer of any in the South. It is in three divisions, the older boys, older girls and children each having their separate play space which are equipped with the best steel apparatus — flying and traveling rings, horizontal and parallel bars, vertical and inclined ladders and poles, teeter ladder, swings, giant strides, see-saws and slide. Besides there are two basket ball and volley ball outfits, and for the boys an eight-lap running track and pole vaulting and jumping pits. The shelter house contains eight shower baths, locker room, office, etc. The Standard Blue Book of Texas 29 EDUCATIONAL FACILITIES. As an educational center Dallas ranks with the largest and best cities of the South, with a free school system far superior to any city in the Southwest. The city is equipped with nineteen modern brick and stone school buildings, exceeding $1,200,000 in value; 330 teachers are employed and more than 15.000 pupils are enrolled. The cost of maintenance is more than $300,000 annually. A fine high school building has just been completed at a cost of $200,000. In addition to the public schools of Dallas there are four colleges, four seminaries for young ladies, two medical universities, one college of Pharmacy, two Dental colleges, two conservatories of music, two boys' academies and two free kindergarten schools. There are also two training schools of the highest order in the two rescue homes for young girls. The total value of all school property, both public and private, in the City of Dallas exceeds $2,000,000, and there is now knocking at the door of the city other educational institutions of such magnitude as to guarantee for the City of Dallas facilities equal to those enjoyed by older educational centers of the North and East. JOBBING CENTER OF SOUTHWEST. Dallas is conceded, even by her rivals to be the greatest jobbing point in the Southwest. The fact that she does enjoy such enormous jobbing trade has been given as the reason for her metropolitan appearance. Located in the center of the black waxy land, the richest farming country in the world and de- clared by President Roosevelt to be the Garden of the Lord, Dallas has within a radius of 100 miles more than two million thrifty people who buy their supplies through Dallas. The total value of the jobbing business for 1910 was more than $130,000,000, an increase over 1909 of almost $20,000,000. Practically every branch of commerce is represented here by a wholesale house and many larger firms of the East and North have found it advantageous to place large branch houses here. Being the center of a rich farming country Dallas' largest business for years has been that of farm implements and machinery. In this line Dallas leads the World, as she does in the manufacture of harness and saddlery. Practically every manufacturing concern of any note in the implement, machinery and vehicle line has Dallas the distributing point for the Southwest and many of the large concerns have their main offices here. With the trade territory rapidly filling up with thrifty and intelligent people from the North and East, it is confidently expected that the increase in business done through Dallas jobbing houses during the year 1911 will far exceed the increases shown in the past. Many Northern and Eastern firms, which have formerly handled their trade from distant points through traveling salesmen, have recognized the necessity of opening branch houses in Dallas in order to be nearer the trade. Their traveling salesmen still cover the territory as in former years, but the proximity of their branch houses give them a decided advantage of other firms not so situated. With the establishment of branch houses at Dallas and carrying large stocks of goods in warehouses they have been able to increase their business from twenty-five to fifty per cent, by reason of their nearness to the trade. Thus the motto of the present day successful business men "get close to the trade" is being exemplified by the up-to-date method of Dallas jobbers. TRAFFIC CENTER OF THE SOUTHWEST. Why? Dallas is located in the center of that most populous, progressive and productive section of the State known as the Black Land Belt, in which grain of all kinds, cotton, fruits, berries and vege- tables are grown in profusion; it has more jobbing and manufacturing establishments than any other The Standard Blue Book of Texas 3 1 city in the Southwest. It is served by Nine Trunk Line Railroad systems, the lines of which radiate in seventeen different directions furnishing through fast train service from all the principal markets of the North, East and West, and from Gulf Ports in connection with the Steamship Companies operating to and from Atlantic seaports. It has Special Merchandise Car Service over all railroads out of the city, so arranged that shipments made by our Jobbers and Manufacturers may be delivered at their various points of destination within a radius of 300 miles without delay. It has two Electric Interurban lines, the trains of which arrive and depart every hour, handle mail, express, baggage and freight, serving adjacent territory on the West to Fort Worth and on the North to Sherman and Denison, enabling merchants to telephone their orders to Dallas and obtain delivery of their goods the same day. It has the Dallas Terminal Railway and Union Depot Company which operates a Belt Line around the City (upon which most desirable sites for locating additional manufacturing plants may be found) furnishing track facilities for numerous manufacturing plants and rendering switching service to and from connec- tions with the several railroads entering the city. It has the Trinity River which, by a system of locks and dams now nearing completion, will in the near future be navigable through to the Gulf of Mexico, furnishing a through water route for our products to the Atlantic Seaboard and insuring a basis for much lower rates for freight. New transportation facilities, now in hand when completed will place Dallas in direct communication with one thousand miles of new territory, increasing of facilities for making prompt delivery at seventy-five additional cities and towns. DALLAS A MANUFACTURING CENTER. Dallas has always been the manufacturing center of the Southwest though held back for years by reason of the fact that adequate freight rates could not be secured that would enable its plants to compete even in the immediate territory with outside manufacturing concerns and by local prejudice against home industries. Under the more favorable conditions which have been brought about the development has been rapid in recent years. Dallas now has 760 different productive industries with a capital of more than $20,000,000 invested. Two hundred and sixty-four of these are large plants, employing 6,189 mechanics and laborers. The average wages are $2.96 a day for skilled laborers and $1.75 for common laborers. The development of the manufacture interest of Dallas within the past five years may be exhibited in tabular form as follows: 1905 1910 Number of Industries 247 760 Capital Invested $10,891,089 $28,000,000 Total Output $15,627,667 $45,368,615 Total Number of Employes 4,275 9,100 Annual Pay Roll $ 2,587,353 $ 4,775,000 Dallas now has oil and natural gas for producing power, the advent of which has made coal cheaper, so that fuel for manufacturing purposes can be had here at rates that are as reasonable as they are most anywhere else in the country. There are at present prospects of the brightest nature that will eventually give Dallas an electric power at a price to manufacturing plants of one-sixth the present cost. This in connection with the opening of the Trinity River to navigation during the coming fall will give water rates on all incoming raw materials, thereby giving Dallas a decided advantage over all other Texas cities as a desirable location for manufacturing concerns. With the growth of Dallas during the past five years and the wonderful development of the trade territory surrounding Dallas, there is not a more inviting field on the continent to day for the investment of capital in productive industries and Texas is just beginning to grow. The Standard Blue Book of Texas 33 The Standard Blue Book of Texas 35 PUBLICATION CENTER OF THE SOUTHWEST. As a publication center Dallas has led the entire South for a great many years. There are at present seventy publications printed here, including three daily newspapers, three semi-weeklies, twenty- three weeklies, five semi-monthlies, thirty monthlies and three quarterlies. These periodicals cover practically every field of endeavor in North Texas, from the daily newspapers with their unexcelled news service to the many trade journals carrying valuable infomation to their subscribers. The Dallas News is the leading morning daily of the South and in addition to carrying a full Associated Press report, has a State news service that exceeds that of any other newspaper of the United States. The News maintains a corps of staff correspondents over the entire country and spares no expense in getting the State news when it is news. In addition to the daily news there is published a semi-weekly which has a large circulation among the farmers and rural districts. The Semi-Weekly News is devoted to the interests of the farmers and stock raisers of Texas. Of the evening papers the Dallas Times Herald is the older publication and has an extensive circulation in every part of the city, together with a substantial out-of-town circulation. The Times- Herald carries the complete afternoon Associated Press report and as a local daily paper is regarded as the best afternoon paper in the Southwest. The Dallas Dispatch has a wide circulation in the City of Dallas, carries the Scripps-McRea report and is an aggressive and enterprising evening paper in all matters of vital interest to the City of Dallas. DALLAS A FINANCIAL CENTER. In banking circles Dallas has the largest bank in the State of Texas with total resources of over 13 1-2 million and deposits of over 10 1-2 million. The combined resources of the seven banks of Dallas aggregate $37,408,814.00; total deposits run over 27 1-2 millions. The banking situation in Dallas is a fair barometer of the business of the city. Her clearings run over a million dollars daily and this is accounted for perhaps by the fact that Dallas is the largest inland cotton market. Over a million bales of cotton are bought and sold in Dallas each year. These figures based on the last official call, March 7th, 191 1, shows in a concise and definite way the resources and equipment of Dallas banks for taking care of the enormous volume of business of the city and surrounding country. There is probably no city in the United States with more substantial banking concerns, per capita, and no city where sound industrial enterprises are more quickly financed and more cordially welcomed. TRINITY RIVER NAVIGATION. Prior to 1878 the Trinity River was regularly navigated six to eight months in the year, nearly four-fifths of the distance from its mouth to Dallas. The river not having been improved, its natural condition did not permit such character of navigation as could compete with rail transportation. The Government has entered upon a plan to put in a sufficient number of locks and dams to permit boats drawing six feet to be able to run every day in the year. These boats will carry cargoes of four to six hundred tons dead weight. The capacity of the river will be sufficient to handle more than ten million tons of freight, or estimating by boat loads, fully twenty thousand annually. It will be a great highway of commerce and will exercise a dominating influence in the establishment and con- trol of freight rates South of the Missouri and West of the Mississippi Rivers. The Standard Blue Book of Texas 37 The Standard Blue Book of Texas 39 The United States Engineers have estimated the improvements to cost about $5,500,000. Of this amount there has already been appropriated and provided about $1,000,000 for the construction and completion of five locks and dams and for clearing the river of timber obstructions. The present Congress will appropriate and provide for three more locks and dams and further improving the channel and maintenance about $800,000 more. STATE FAIR OF TEXAS. There is probably no institution in the United States which has such an important bearing on the city in which it is located as does the State Fair of Texas. Located in The City of Dallas within easy reach by electric lines of all parts of the city; the grounds and improvements owned by the city and under the control of the Park Board, with the exception of thirty days each year, which time is allotted to the State Fair Association, the grounds are used the entire year for a public park, the equal of which is not to be found in the entire South. The grounds comprise 127 acres with improvements costing $550,000, not includmg the $100,000 coliseum. The grounds with the present improvements was turned over to the City of Dallas, without compensation, by the State Fair Association, in 1906. The Association in making this magnificent gift to the City of Dallas further agreed that from the profits accruing from the State Fair each year, there would be no dividends declared, but all such profits would be expended for permanent improve- ments on new buildings and beautifying the grounds of the Fair Park. Here each year for sixteen days, the greatest Fair in the United States is held and the Agriculture exhibits, together with the live stock, poultry and other exhibits have in the past few years exceeded that of any fair in the World with the exception of the International Exposition held at Chicago, St. Louis and Paris. More than $80,000 is given away in prizes and premiums each year, and each annual Fair is greater than the preceding one. Under the able management of President E. J. Kiest, Secretary Sydney Smith, the State Fair of Texas promises greater things for the future than has been given to the public in the past. THE TRADE TERRITORY. Dallas has a territory lying tributary to it which is the richest agriculture section in the world. Its soil took the first prize at the Paris Exposition for chemical fertility and general productiveness. This territory known as the black waxy land belt of Texas is producing the wealth which has made Dallas great. In a circle of 100 miles radius of which Dallas is the center, there is 8' ( of the area of the State of Texas; 30.3' f of the rated business houses of the State; 34.2', 7 of the assessed valuation of the State; 30'^'( of the railroad mileage of the State; 42.4' ,' of the population. In this radius there is 1 1,013,251 acres of land under cultivation on which is grown one-fifth of the cotton crop of the United States. In this circle there are 1 ,257 cities, towns and villages, comprising 42 of the 246 counties of the State. Such is the trade territory of Dallas, known as the Garden spot of the Southwest. A more comprehensive idea of the value of this territory may be gained by a glance at the enor- mous business done through the Dallas wholesale houses, a large portion of which is confined to the 100 mile radius. In the year 1905 the wholesale business done by Dallas houses amounted to $67,365,000, while during the year 1910 the figures reached the stupendous sum of $131,600,000, showing an increase in five years of $63,285,000, or almost 100' , .

Field, Cornelius and Newsome preceded Dr. J. L. Carter as health officer of Dallas. The community, then small and correspondingly careless of its sanitary details, maintained a health department consisting of a meagerly salaried officer without aids or equipment. During the terms of Dr. Carter sanitary in- structors were employed, a crematory erected and a two-3tory frame buildmg on South Lamar Street was used as a hospital, then the only such institution in the city, public or private. • Dr. W. I.. Wilson succeeded Dr. Carter in 1890 and continued the plans of sanitary supervision without notable change, the same being true of the administration of Dr. C. M. Rosser, who agitated the need of a new city hospital during his term as health officer without securing its settlement. Dr. V. P. Armstrong was more fortunate in this particular. The present city hospital, though too remote from the city's center, was a great improvement over the unsuitable structure of former years, but must inevitably give way to a modern building suitable and more accessible. During the incumbency of Dr. Armstrong the office of sanitary inspector was abolished by the City and the work was aggressively carried on by Dr. Armstrong, very much in person. The Standard Blue Book of Texas 43 DR. MARTIN E. TABER BISHOP ALEXANDER CHARLES GARRETT President St. Marys College, Dallas. Texas Dr. J. H. Florence was then elected and shortly given an assistant in the person of Dr. Lindsey Smith, and this enabled the city to assume care of pauper cases not transferred to the hospital. During this period a detention point, now grown into the Union Hospital, for smallpox, was established. Dr. J. H. Smart held the office for two terms, and Dr. T. B. Fisher is the present occupant. HOSPITALS Dr. H. K. Leake, with his associates Drs. A. C. Graham and W. B. Brooks, established the first private hospital here in 1891 for 20 beds, opposite the City Park, and three years later, upon the present site, corner Canton and Pearl, a building to which an equal addition has been made was erected and has been since operated In 1897 Drs. Rosser and Milliken opened a private hospital on Elm Street called "The Hermitage," thus adding to the hospital facilities of the city. A growing city demanded enlarged hospital facilities, and upon the initiative of Drs. S. Eagon and J. S. Letcher the Dallas Medical and Surgical Society took action asking the co-operation of Bishop Dunn in securing the institution built and conducted since 1898 as St. Pauls Sanitarium capacity 100. The names of these two medical men can never be disassociated from this institution for it was largely through the diplomatic relation of one and the untiring energy of the other that it was established. Later The Good Samaritan Hospital was founded by Dr. C. M. Rosser, was owned and conducted by him until transferred by sale to the Directors of the Texas Baptist Memorial Sanitarium in 1905. Upon these grounds, with additions thereto, the Baptist Sanitarium now stands, and the original building is used as a nurses' home, and has been in operation about two years. Other hospitals established are: The Marsalis, the property of Dr. J. H. Reuss; The Polyclinic, the property of Dr. S. E. Milliken (discontinued): The Briggs Sanitarium for tuberculosis cases, lost by fire; and the needs of the colored population has been met by the Bluitt's .Sanitarium The Standard Blue Book of Texas 45 MEDICAL SCHOOLS Two medical colleges are maintained in Dallas; Baylor University College of Medicine and the Southwestern University Medical College, a department of Baylor University at Waco of the Baptist denomination, the other a department of the Methodist L'niversity of Texas. The earliest effort to organize Medical School in Dallas was at a meeting in the Oriental Hotel in 1899. At this meeting Dr. J. M. Pace, S. E. Milliken, R. H. Chilton, C. H. Sherman, C. M. Rosser, andH. L. McLaurin took part, though no charter was procured, and the matter was dropped for the time being, when in 1900 C. M.Rosser took the initiative and pushed the movement to successful culmination. In 1900 Dr. C. M. Rosser, who by that and subsequent acts became the chief founder of the first medical college in Dallas, induced Chas. Steinmann. Ben E. Cabell, President Commercial Club and Mayor respectively, and Hon. W. J. Moroney to issue a call for the Doctors of Dallas to organize a Medical College, which was done and conducted under a charter to the University of Dallas until it became by agreement with the trustees of Baylor University its Medical Department. It is now located on the Baptist Hospital grounds, corner College and Junius Streets, and under the management of the efficient Dean, Dr. E. H. Cary. The Southwestern University Medical College was subsequently formed by a number of Dallas physicians, Drs. R. W. Baird, J. B. Shelmire, and J. B. Smoot, and others, headed by Dr. Jno. 0. McReynolds, who has since been Dean of the faculty. These institutions, since their organization, have maintained free clinics for the treatment of the worthy poor, a feature only at intervals properly given attention. The first of its kind was established by Dr. H. W.Wandlers in his private offices in 1896, but it only rendered service to cases of eye, ear, nose and throat trouble, the same being true of the North Texas Charity Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat Hospital clinic promoted by Dr. M. E. Taber, with-the assistance of the Sisters of St. Pauls Sanitarium some years later. BOARDS OF HEALTH During the administration of Mayor Curtice P. Smith a board of health was inaugurated with Dr. J. M. Pace as its President. Other members were: Drs. C. M. Rosser, T. B. Fisher, and E. M. Reardon. The present board consists of: Drs. H. K. Leake, President; 0. M. Marchman, Miles J. Duncan, E. Aronson and Col. C. E. Moss. CITY CHEMISTS L. Meyers Connor was twenty years and more city chemist. The office was abolished, but re-established with J. Connor Chism, and now Dr. Landon C. Moore with his assistants look after the details of that department. Appropriately here we may mention men who have been identified with the development of medicine, and now lamented and remembered by many living: Drs. Morten, E. L. Thompson, J. S. Letchem, J. L. Carter, W. L. Wilson, Ben C. Taber, J. W. Crowdus, Wm. Newsome, W. S. Sutton, S. D. Thruston,J. D. Parsons, R. H. Chilton, A. M. Elmore, S. W. Mcjunkin, Pleasant Gray, R. Pope, Dr. Elliott and the venerable and scholarly Dr. T. H. Stout. During these years Medical progress has been aided by the scientific atmosphere created and kept by the various medical societies which have been in existence with more or less regularity throughout but let us not forget the labors of those faithful men who have practiced here many years, among whom are: Drs. R. W. Allen, J. M. Fort, H. L. McLaurin, E. J. Reeves, and Theo. L. Arnold, one of the first Eye and Ear Specialists in North Texas. The Standard Blue Book of Texas 47 (,'.

Worth. The first three lines, together with the Dallas Electric Light and Power Company, have been under the general management of the Stone & Webster Management Association since September 30, 1902, with Edward T. Moore, Local Manager; E. J. Emerson, Superintendent of Railways, and J. C. Woodsome, Superintendent of Lighting. The present city mileage, including the Oak Cliff line, is approximately seventy-five miles; of this total the first three companies mentioned above operate about sixty-one miles. The companies own 158 passenger cars, having an average length of 40 feet, as follows: 55 open, 14 semi-convertible and 89 closed cars. Forty-three of the closed cars are equipped for prepayment operation, which has been successfully used on several of the lines since November, 1909. The monthy pay roll ranges from $25,000 to $28,000 per month. An average of about sixty cars is operated on a basis of 18 hours per car per day The maximum number operated at one time during 1910 was 123. During 1910 the companies carried 18,465, 184 fare passengers and 4,144,592 transfer and free passengers, making a total of 22,609,776 carried. During this period the company's trainmen operated 3,385,000 car miles, of which 3,249,000 was passenger mileage. The above total car mileage was operated in 433,769 car hours. All city lines are operated with a five cent fare and universal transfer system, which permits of a maximum ride on a single fare of a trifle over 1 6 miles, and half-fare tickets are issued to school children. In addition to the Northern Texas Traction Company, the Texas Traction Company operating an inter- urban from Dallas to Denison also enters the city over the local Company's tracks on Commerce Street. The power for operating the railway lines is supplied from the plant of the Dallas Electris Light & Power Company, located at the foot of Griffin Street, west of the M. K. & T. Railway tracks, where the company owns nine and three-fourths acres. The power plant buildings occupy approximately 30,000 square feet. Improvements and additions have been made continually since the company came under its present management until it now has a generating capacity of 5,800 kilowatts. The boiler equipment consists of fifteen high pressure boilers, having an aggregate of 6,990 horse-power. There are four re- ciprocating steam engines, totaling 4,040 horse-power and two Curtis General Electric Steam Turbines, having a combined capacity of 5,000 horse-power, or a grand total of 9,040 horse-power in steam engines. These engines drive six electric generators with total capacity of 5,800 kilowatts, as above stated. Oil is used exclusively as boiler fuel, the tank cars coming direct from the oil wells to the company's spur track from which the oil is transferred by pipe lines to the two storage reservoirs, having a combined capacity of 175,000 gallons. The daily consumption of oil is from 28,000 to 30,000 gallons, depending on the station load. The company has its own artesian water system, one of the wells reaching the Paluxy strata. In addition to the main generating station, (which includes a sub of 1,000 kilowatts,) the company has a sub-station on Commerce Street of 1,040 kilowatts capacity, furnishing power for both the lighting and railway departments. The maximum main station load during 1910 was about 7,600 kilowatts. The distributing system of the Dallas Electric Light & Power Company covers the entire city, in some cases extending for a considerable distance beyond the city limits. The Company employs at the present time from 1 50 to 200 men in its operating departments, and the monthly pay roll ranges from $12,000 to $15,000. Over twenty horses, two automobiles and two motor cycles are required to take care of the outside work. The company is now serving 12,100 revenue customers and has over 13,000 meters connected to its lines. Current is furnished for 930 municipal and about 550 commercial The Standard Blue Book of Texas 51 arc lamps, and the equivalent of about 217.000 in 16 candle power incandescent lights. Power is sup- plied to about 860 motors having a capacity of 6,400 horse-power. The company has over 900 distributing transformers on its system, with a combined capacity of 8,000 kilowatts. The total con- nected load of all revenue customers is 16,900 kilowatts. During the year 1910 the output from the main generating station was approximately 25,000.000 kilowatt hours, or over 2,000,000 kilowatt hours per month. In addition to the power generated . 643,000 kilowatt hours were purchased from the Dallas Ice Factory, Light & Power Company for use by the Railway Department during the evening rush hours. STATEMENT REGARDING STONE & WEBSTER. FOR THE STANDARD BLUE BOOK. The Stone & Webster Management Association of Boston, Massachusetts, manage the companies which operate street railway systems in Dallas, El Paso, Ft. Worth. Galveston and Houston, and furnish electric lighting in Dallas, El Paso and Galveston. They also operate an interurban line between Dallas and Fort Worth and have under construction an interurban line between Galveston and Houston, which is expected to start operation about the end of 19] 1. These companies employ about two thousand men and operate about 300 miles of equivalent single track in Texas. Their power stations have a combined capacity of about 25,000 horse-power. These properties represent many millions of dollars invested in Texas, their securities being held by several thousand persons in various parts of the United States, Canada and Europe, including Texas itself. They require an annual expenditure of from two million dollars a year upwards in new money to take care of extensions called for by the growth of the city in which the company operates. In the way of new development, the announcement has been made that interurban lines are to be constructed between Fort Worth and Cleburne and between Dallas and Waxahachie. The combined financial statement of these Texas properties for the calendar year 1910 was as follows: Gross earnings $4,865,769.82 Operating Expenses $2,883,266,03 Net Earnings $1,982,503.79 Interest Charges and Taxes 845,308.02 Balance $1,137,195.77 Bond Sinking Fund 88,576.23 Balance $1,048,619.54 Dividends 640,671.00 Balance $407,948.54 The bonds and stocks of these public service companies present a very safe and stable form of investment. Stone & Webster believing that the people of Texas should be interested in securing such an investment, offer the bonds and stocks of their Texas companies for sale to the investing public in Texas, and they have a department in the Wilson Building in Dallas for the sole purpose of handling these securities for Texas investors.

Today there are between 17,000 and 18,000 telephones in the service of 95,000 people. The Southwestern Telegraph & Telephone Co. provides the means by which any one in the city may speak to practically any one else. Thirty years ago there were no telephones in Dallas. Twenty-nine years ago there were exactly forty. Now there is an instrument for every si.x and a fraction of the people and the general use has given an added value to the service rendered every individual. The country and the company grew together. The local system and the city are twins in ad- vancement. Little Rock, Galveston and Houston had telephone facilities before ever a dollar was spent in swinging wires over the Dallas housetops. The work of installing the local system commenced in 1881, and in 1897 the records of the company showed 1,000 subscribers. In 1898 it was announced that this city stood first in the territory of the Southwestern Company in the use of the telephone. Since then the growth has been beyond expectations, and Dallas has advanced from an overgrown town into a full fledged city. Few of the original "Telephone Men" are left. As wonderful a change has come over the service as has come over the city. In 1902 when J. E. Farnsworth was made General Manager of the Southwestern Company general offices were established in this city. Once a newspaper man at Austin, Mr. Farnsworth had entered the office of the auditor of the telephone company, afterwards became auditor and then division super- intendent with jurisdiction over north Texas. His appointment to the central position unified the Southwestern Company. Within a short time the telephone structure was crowded and it was recommended that an addi- tional story be added. Two were placed instead, as if in an extra generosity of space, but every inch of room was quickly utilized. At the resignation of J. E. Caldwell in 1904 Mr. H. J. Pettengill, who had previously been Vice President, was elevated to the highest executive place and J. E. Farnsworth was made Vice President and General Manager. Within a short time Mr. Pettengill gave up his other telephone interests to come to Texas and to Dallas to give his entire time and energy to the operation of the Southwestern Telegraph & Telephone Company. By that move the company was made to stand alone an integral part of the great system of allied corporations. Meanwhile, as business grew by leaps and bounds, six buildings were required to accommodate the employes in the various departments of the Southwestern Telegraph & Telephone Company in Dallas. The 850 men and women in this one city on the pay roll of the corporation were cramped in their work. Branch exchanges were being established or had been opened in different cities, and the total number of subscribers served by the Southwestern Company increased to 200,000. A ten story steel building, planned to support six additional stories, is to be raised in Dallas. It will incorporate every facility for the support of the service and the development of the system. From it will radiate, perhaps, 18,000 local lines and 150 double tracks for the voice to afford communication with the cities around about, in a radius of 2,000 miles In the structure whole floors will be given over to the comfort and convenience of the employes. There will be cafes for the use of both the young women and the men employed in the intricate detail of the work.

WILLIAM E. WHITE The people of Dallas have expressed a palpable desire for musical culture in the liberal patronage they have accorded to the many great artists and fine musical organizations who have visited them. In several instances they have distinguished themselves. In 1902, for the opening of the Confed- erate Reunion, Ignace Jan Paderewski, the great pianist, played to an audience which ranked second only in point of numbers to any before whom he had appeared in his previous career, and for which he received $4,500. In 1904, the German Singing Societies of the State held their 25th Jubilee Saengerfest in Dallas, augmenting their own large aggregation of singers by the Chicago Orchestra and a company of soloist singers, with Rosenbecker as conductor and Marcella Sembrich, the great prima donna, as the chief center of attraction. Mme. Sembrich sang to thousands of enthusiastic listeners and received $6,500 for her two appearances. The receipts for the three concerts reached the sum of $21,000. In 1905, on April 21, San Jacinto Day, the Metropolitan Opera House Company, with Hertz as conductor, and Fremsted, Dippel, Van Rooy and Blass in principal roles, presented the wonderful religio-musico-drama, Parsifal, the last flower to burst into bloom from the brain of the world-genius Richard Wagner, to an audience that taxed the capacity of the house, all seats on the lower floor selling for $1 0.00 and the receipts amounting to approximately $1 1 ,000, although it was a holy day with many — that of Good Friday. For the success of these noteworthy events honor and praise must be awarded to a few zealous and enthusiastic men who gave freely their time and efforts aided by public-spirited citizens who gave their financial guarantee. In the summer of '89 a Comic Opera Season was inaugurated in Oak Cliff and continued for several seasons, the MacCollin Company doing good work, giving such operas as Fra Diavolo, Bohemian Girl, etc. (this feature having been revived in late years and wonderfully improved); the Lake Cliff Park, with its modern summer theatre. The Casino, being the home of as good comic opera as can be found throughout the land, the better class of composers, such as Gilbert and Sullivan, Victor Herbert, and Reginald DeKoven being presented. From the beginning there have been musical clubs and societies, there bemg in exi:tence today several Choral Clubs for women's voices and the same for men's voices, besides Glee Clubs and German and Swiss Singing Societies. From among this number the Ladies' St. Cecelia Choral Club, through its indomitable and continuous energies, were instrumental in bringing about many of the best musical entertainments, and in its eleven years of work spent, conservatively speaking, $40,000 in that cause. In evidence of artistic discrimination as to the paramount value of a good instrument in any musical consideration, it may be stated that in Dallas and Texas there are more than the pro-rata of Steinway pianos, that work of art which is the result of generations of inherited inventive and musical geniuc — the Steinway Parlor Grand — lending grace to homes innumerable. The various churches are making noticeable progress in their musical efforts and nearly all are equipped with pipe organs of standard build and ample compass. The new Scottish Rite Cathedral will in the near future install an instrument toco.st $15,000, and the First Presbyterian Church likewise one to cost $10,000. The teachers of music in Dallas, though mentioned last are not considered least. To the con- trary, a large proportion of these praiseworthy achievements are due to their influence and work. All branches of music are successfully taught there being a number of teachers of undisputed ability who have studied in the musical centers of the East and abroad and who give the best of their live; to their work. The Pupils' Recital is of frequent occurrence, chronicled in the daily press. The Standard Blue Book of Texas 67 In the public schools a Supervisor of Music is employed and the rudiments of music are taught. In pursuance of the reminiscent character of this article it seems in place to recall the names of our always welcome visitors, the musical artists, and the attendant hours of celestial transport engendered by their gift which is "of the Grace of God. " Beginning with the brass band, the refinement of which was initiated by Patrick Gilmore and who was the first to visit Dallas, followed by Liberati Inness, Seventh Regiment under Cappa, Sousa, Banda Rossa. Orchestras and String Quartettes: Boston Quintette, Mendelssohn Quintette, Spanish Octette, Chicago Orchestra under Rosenbecker, Damrosch, Theo. Thomas. Stock, and Pittsburgh Orchestra under Pauer. Grand Opera Companies: Emma Abbott English Opera Company, Emma Juch Grand Opera Company, Savage English Opera Company, Lombard! Italian, Metropolitan, Bessie Abbott. Singers: Myron Whitney, Campanini, De Vera, Clara Loiuse Kellog, Scalchi, Alice Verlet, De Lu;san, Dippel, Schumann-Heink, Nevada, Melba, Nordica, Gilibert, Calve, Blanche Marchesi. Violinists: Camilla Urso, Remenji, Musin, DeSeve, Leonora Jackson, Petschnikoff, Ysaye, Kubelik. Pianists: Sher- wood, Perry, Zeisler, Rive-King, MacDowell, Hofmann, DePachmann, Carreno, Paderewski. In con- clusion it is fitting to say that the late Mrs. Alice Parsons Fitzgerald through the medium of Beau Monde took a staunch position for the best in music and held to it from the beginning to the end, her generous words of commendation inspiring many to greater and better efforts. 1 .1. o.

Texas The Standard Blue Book of Texas 73 Social and Club Life in Dallas Dallas has many things of which to be proud, but she has nothing which can excel her Social and Club Life — the delightful medium for the meeting of refined and cultured men and women. During the season social events fairly tread on each other. Her three daily papers chronicle each event worthy of notice, and she has a weekly paper devoted to the social affairs of the town alone. There are card clubs almost every day in the week, and the card enthusiast can choose his own game. Bridge Whist, however, has the largest following. The schools and churches all reflect the cultured citizenship of Dallas, and she could rightly be called the city of Beautiful Homes; her driveways are the delight of automobilists and are the talk of this entire section of the State. Dallas' Literary Clubs are among the best in the State, their members taking part in all move- ments for the advancement of women and holding offices in the State and National organizations. Their programmes which are of the highest order stimulate literary work of the best nature. The Country Club has excellent facilities for outdoor pleasures and is one of Dallas' prides. In its Club Life Dallas Women are workers, and accomplish much. Its City Federation has probably done more in its fourteen years of existence than the City Federation of any city in the South. They are also doing much toward making Dallas a "City Beautiful" in every respect. The Dallas Free Kindergarten Association was organized in 1900, and is a second Hull House, with its Mothers' Meetings, its Boys' Clubs, its Social Club, its Young Girls' Club, its Sewing School and its Cooking School. The Dallas Mothers' Council are doing everything in their power to bring about a closer relation- ship between teacher and pupil, and bringing attractions to the city that will be of benefit to the mind of the young. The Mothers have appointed themselves a Board of Censors over the moving picture shows of the town, condemning the darkened halls, and allowing only the very cleanest of pic- tures to be shown in their town. The Daughters of the American Revolution and the Daughters of the Confederacy have large, growing, and earnest memberships, and these two patriotic societies are closely allied with the state organizations for the encouragement of patriotism. Dallas is also known as the home of many beautiful women, and in no place in the entire United States can one find a city where in a walk of a few blocks down the street one meets so many beauti- ful women and girls. Dallas is also known as the visiting girl's paradise: her life is brilliant and spectacular. All the high class New York Operas and theatrical bills are presented to well filled houses in Dallas. In fact what can be said of Dallas can be generally accepted as to society in the principal cities of the State. DALLAS FEDERATION OF WOMEN'S CLUBS Mrs. P. P.

Treasurer Mrs. W. K. Hill. 3rd Vice President Membership 1.000 The City Federation is in its 14th year; the officers are elected from the delegates sent from the individual clubs, but the active work is done by fourteen standing committees, who are appointed yearly from the full membership; namely Juvenile Court, Playgrounds and Social Centre, Club Extension, Water Filtration, Civics, Kindergarten Press, Municipal, River and Harbors, Child Labor and Compulsory Education, Fire Prevention, Tag Day. Empty Stocking, and Social Committee. Through these committees a police matron was procured and became one of the city officials, having been in office six years. A Probation Officer was employed and paid by the Juvenile Court Committee two years, when the city and county established the office in the Court House and now pays all costs of the office. The city now pays an assistant Probation Officer. The City Federation was active in procuring the Juvenile Court in Dallas, and helped finance the movement that was made by the Women of Texas, to establish a State Industrial Home for Juveniles at Gatesville.

In February of each year the Federation has a Tag Day and in this way realizes funds for the different interests. The Free Kindergarten Association has done magnificent work in Dallas for many years past, and received yearly one-third of the Tag Day receipts toward building a neighborhood house, which they expect to begin during the present year. There has been much Excellent work done by the other committees in their respective lines. The Fire Prevention Committee is a new one, just appointed by the President, and they expect to make a record for the Federation this year. The Tag Day receipts and disbursements are audited by the Chamber of Commerce each February, signed by the President and Secretary of that body and sent to the city officials for their endorsement. The Federation is now using all its influence to have $25,000 bonds sold by the city commissions, that have been voted for the purpose of establishing a Detention Home for Juveniles in the City of Dallas. TEXAS CONGRESS OF MOTHERS. The Texas Congress of Mothers and Parent-Teacher Association was organized by Mrs. J. N. Porter, in Dallas, October 19th, 1909. Each organization in the State having any department bearing upon this subject appointed delegates, and the Mayors of each city in Texas were invited. The result was an enthusiastic meeting and the forming of a strong organization: Mrs. J. N. Porter was elected President. During the first year 150 clubs became a part of the State organization and the member- ship increased to more than 5,000. As a result of this organization twenty Parent and Teachers County Conferences have been held by County Chairman of Congress extension, and the Governor of Texas issued a proclamation to the effect that the second Sunday in May of each year should be observed as "Mothers' Day," and the State Fair of Texas for two successive years has observed "Mothers' Congress Day. " A constantly increasing membership, a greater demand for literature and aid in organizing local clubs attest to the growing appreciation of the work of the Congress. There are no complexities in the organization, nor in its appeal. Child welfare forms the burden of every program, and the con- stant endeavor is to understand childhood and to come to know better how to provide for its best de- velopment, physically, mentally and spiritually.

It also maintains a Neighborhood house, where many branches of Social Settlement work are carried on. Here the teachers live in a simple, wholesome way, ready to give a helping hand to all who come and go in the highways and hedges, and to encourage and uplift humanity. They are neighbors and friends in the truest sense. The Association supports three Free Kindergartens. The one in South Dallas, opposite the Cotton Mills, has eighty-five children enrolled, and in connection with the kindergarten work there is a Day Nursery where babies and young children are kept from 7 a. m. to 6 p. m. while their mothers work. They are given warm lunch at noon, and milk is served at 10 a. m. and 3 p. m.. and the Matron attends to their baths and naps with care and regularity. There is an enrollment of 90 children in the East Dallas Kindergarten. There are 106 children enrolled in the Clara Chaison Kindergarten.

The Standard Blue Book uf Texas 95 ALICE PARSONS FITZGERALD (Deceased) It is not fitting that we close this section of the Standard Blue Book in its edition de luxe of Dallas, without giving some space to the memory of Mrs. Alice Parsons Fitzgerald, founder of Beau Monde, and wife of Hugh Nugent Fitzgerald, of the Dallas Times Herald, as the City of Dallas suffered an irreparable loss in the death of this most wonderful woman. She was indeed a wonderful woman, with all the graces of womanly womanlmess. coupled with her ability in the field of art and journalism. Nature gave her that rare thing, the imagery powers of a poet, the temperament and personality of an artist, with a well poised business head. She believed in the forward march of civilization, in the great uplift movement for humanity, and saw in the future the dawn of the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of Man. Fifteen years ago she founded Beau Monde, which was assured of success from the start, as it could not be otherwise with her powers as a trained journalist, a well known and able critic, and her belief in a God-given mission, and that this was her mission. It was her creation, and no human being in all the years of her career dictated or was permitted to dictate its po''<:y- Under her guiding hand, analytical mind, and splendidly equipped pen, this journal which she conceived and made a power, ever championed, and still champions, what she believed to be the best for the advancement of home and state, and re- mains an indestructible monument to her ability and her goodness. Mrs. Fitzgerald departed this life on Tuesday, December 13th, 1910, and though she is no longer in the midst of her friends her spirit still lingers, and her work still lives, and prospers, and will continue to live and do good, indeed a monument worth while. Alineral Wells, Texas THE SOUTH'S GREATEST HEALTH AND PLEASURE RESORT Mineral Wells is in a class to itself as an all-the-year-round Health and Pleasure resort - it is some- thing different and better. For a quarter of a century it has been popular as a health resort, it has more tourists and health seekers annually than any city of its size in the world. The number having passed the hundred and fifty thousand mark several years ago. The city is situated in the mountains of West Texas, at an altitude of 1400 feet, where malaria and climatic diseases are unknown. The scenery in and around Mineral Wells is as picturesque and beautiful as Nature ever placed before the eye. The resident population is about 6,000, and the city is modern in every way, having concrete side- walks and crossings, street cars, electric and gas lights, parks, golf grounds, many beautiful homes, churches, modern schools, clubs, stores, banks, office buildings, etc. There are seventy-five hotels and boarding houses, with ample accommodations for 10,000 guests, and the rates are lower than in any first-class resort city in America. The public drinking pavilions and bath houses recently built are the largest and best equipped buildings of their kind on earth. The waters from the thirty or forty different "wells" which is used is all clear as crystal, sparkling, and pleasant to the taste, which makes it, aside from its wonderful medicinal properties, the purest and best drinking water on earth. The chemical analysis of each of the wells is differeni, hence the great value of the waters in treating different diseases. Mineral Wells has the greatest variety of life giving mineral waters in this country; it has been tested and thoroughly tested, for a quarter of a century, in the treatment of many thousands of chronic cases of Rheumatism, Insomnia, Nervousness, Constipation, Bright's Disease, Diabetes, Female Dis- orders, and all forms of Kidney, Liver, Bladder and Stomach Troubles, and the great number of cures credited to the waters has made it famous as "The Best Water on Earth." Physicians throughout the country endorse the waters and send thousands of patients here to take the hot mineral baths and drink the waters. The bathing facilities here are the best in the South. However, the best general results are obtained by drinl^ing the waters fresh at (he wells. A well known peculiarity of the water is that it destroys the desire for alcoholic stimulants. Recent discoveries show unmistakable proof that the waters are radio-active, in addition to having the properties that make them the world's greatest and best solvent for uric acid. Hundreds of solid cars of the waters are shipped to distant points in the United States annually. Total shipments for 1910 was more than 3,000,000 bottles. The water shipments from here is greater than from all the other wells and springs in Texas combined, and it is the largest mineral water shipping point in the South or Southwest The shipments of condensed water, crystals, and mineral oils, made from the natural waters, is a large and growing business. Orders are received from all parts of the United States for these by-products. As a place to spend a vacation for rest, pleasure or health, for Southern people during the Summer and early Fall months and for Northern people during the winter and early spring months, Mineral Wells is the most popular and largely patronized resort in the entire Southwest. It is a city dedicated to tourists and health seekers, and there has been provided here a combination of "good things " un- equaled by any similar resort in this country. The summer nights are always cool, and there are no mosquitoes. This, with the famous "sleepy waters," makes Mineral Wells the ideal place to rest and thoroughly enjoy a vacation. After a thorough investigation of various cities throughout the South, from Atlantic to Pacific, Chas. A. Comiskey, President of the Chicago White Sox Baseball Club, selected Mineral Wells as their training ground, and after training here for the first time in the spring of 1911 he said, "I have tried California and I have tried Mexico, but the most favored of all the spots in these two parts of the world cannot rival Mineral Wells." The words "Vacation and Mineral Wells" are linked together in the minds of countless thousands, so that they never think of going anywhere else for "repairs" or a vacation. You will always feel that you have "missed something" until you come to the "City of Radium Waters." Come now, and in the future it will be a habit with you, as with many others.

To enjoy the greatest increase from their herds it was necessary to have a range furnishing sufficient water and pasture, properly to nourish them. The combination of a warm and dry climate and a freedom from harrassing insects made a section thus favored especi- ally' attractive to the occupation of cattle raising. ^ There might be expected the greatest percentage of increase with the minimum of loss and expense of maintenance. For these reasons West Texas properly became known as the best cattle breeding country in the United States, with the Pecos and Toyah \'atleys as its most favored section. PRODUCTIVE VALLEYS — Gradually the evolution from cattle raising to farming continued, until today these val- leys stand the recognized equal of any section in the United States in point of productivity of soil, healthfulness and desirability for a home.
