FAIR TO OBSERVE
HISTORY OF TEXAS
UNDER SIX FLAGS
Lone Star State's Past to
Be Reviewed at Centen
nial Exposition From
June 6 to November 29
' DALLAS, (UP) Texaa. In cele
brating Its 100th anniversary with
the Texas centennial exposition June
6 through Novemuer 20, wilt observe
a unique historical record the only
state Jn the Union ever to attain
recognition of a republic, boasting
niore flags than any other state, and
having had more capitals.
The colorful background, engender
ed by the change of capital cities,
national flags and varying political
fortunes, makea a, glamorous pattern
for the Centennial celebration.
falx flags, which flew over Texas In
the years that saw the st&tc'A de
velopment from a wilderness to a
great commonwealth, will fly over
the exposition wounds.
Hall of State Unlit
' In a Texas Hall of State, now being
constructed on the exposition
grounds at a cost of $1 GOO .000, will
be housed relics of those old days
when Texana could, never be quite
sure where the capital would be when
they awoke In the morning.
In the past 350 years, six flags,
France, Spain, Mexico, Republic of
Texas, United States, and the Con
fedracy, have flown over Texas, and
he capital has been moved 15 times,
although four cities have appeared in
the capital list twice.
The flags of Spain and the United
States have flown over the "Lone
Star" state on two different occa
sions. RepoftMMiied by Spain
The Spanish banner was raised In
Texas before ttiat of the French and
later, when Rene Robert Oavaller,
Sleur de la Salle, and his followers
deserted the short-lived French col
ony on Matagorda Bay, Spain re
' possessed Texas.
The flag of the United States first
flew over Texas when the state Joined
the union, ceasing to be a republic.
Then, Texas became one of the Con
federate states, later rejoining the
union.
-Texas, alone In the union, became
a member of the United States after
being established as an Independent
republic, whose sovereignty was
recognized by Or eat Britain, the
United States, France and other
powers.
Contracted With California
Although California set up a re
public before the Mexican war. it
never attained foreign governmental
recognition, nor did It function as an
Individual political entity, and Its
"republic" lasted but a few weeks.
Vermont, before the Boston tea
party and the revolution, declared It
self a republic and refused to pay
taxes to New York, then head of the
British colonial government. How
ever, the formation of the Continen
tal Congress, the Declaration of In
dependence and other major events
of the period obscured the Vermont
republic claim, and It became one of
the 18 states.
Should the founders of the "Lone
Star" state be able to revisit their
old haunts today, they would find
them revered ahrtnea to the fires of
patriotism and Independence that
brought forth Texaa.
Visitors to the centennial wilt see
some of the largest mural decorations
ever painted in the United States.

The coffee was so swell at dinner
last night compared with what
we'd been having for months
that I asked my wife "How
come?" When she told me it was
Hills Bros. I got all set for another
spiel about the family budget.
But I piped down plenty quick
when she told mo it cost practi
cally the same as most of the
ether coffees we'd been trying.
Well, my face was red all right,
but my palate was ticklod pink.
