ment. We are proud of our record in churches, public schools, library and Baylor University and business colleges, all of gradual growth, but always when one looks up the records and facts in town improvement the "suspension bridge" and the "Arnicable Life Insurance Building" will be unique — supreme in their respective periods.
Last, but by no means least, is the Texas Cotton Palace Association. November of 1912 will mark the third year of its existence. It is a benefit educationally, commercially and socially. Each year its autumn exposition will be more attractive. Come and see it, and see the beginning of "Greater Waco," her citizens shall greet you with words of welcome in the musical language of the great American poet, and brave Hiawatha —
Beautiful is the sun, or Strangers,
When you come so far to see us —
All our town in peace awaits yen,
All our doors stand open to you;
You shall enter all our wigwams;
For the heart's right hand we give you.
