TEXAS SCENIC BEAUTIES SKETCHED ON TRAVELAX ROUTE Take the word of a widely known Texas artist, Guy F. Cahoon, the highways of the Lone Star State afford a variety of scenic beauties! not excelled by any other section of ! these United States. Mr. Cahoon has made travel sketches illustrat ing many parts of the world, but finds sufficient subjects at home to make him especially enthusiastic regarding the natural beauties of his own state. “In Western Texas the motoring vacationist and his family can revel in the inspiring grandeur of rugged mountains,” says Mr. Cahoon. “In Northern Texas they find long stretches of straight, smooth high way to intrigue them onward, mile after mile, over level, picturesque plains. In East Texas the traveler thrills to the peace and beauty of the wooded country as he motors through stately pines. To the south he enjoys a wealth of luxuriant, sub-tropical plant life as he travels through the palm-bordered roads of South Texas and the Gulf Coast country. Truly, a variety of scenery as wide as the range of sports and interests to which they lead.” The above illustrations were sketched by Mr. Cahoon for the Portland Cement Association and show typical scenes along the Trav elax Route. Maps showing concrete highways in Texas (The Travelauc Route) are now being distributed by the Association and may be ob tained by writing their offices at Dallas.

Among the specialties, Drug, Amer ican Ice and Celanese gained about 5 each Such issues as American Telephone, U. S. Steel, Allied Chemical and American Can were up fractionally to about a point. Some bankers with European con nections were inclined to believe that France might now decide to shelve the gold standard and that if the divorcement occurred, Belgium, Holland and Switzerland could be expected to follow’. NEW ORLEANS COTTON NEW ORLEANS, June 28.—(JP)— Cotton opened steady bi’t some what quieter than of late. First trades showed gains of 4 points, but prices turned easier dua to adverse advices on the London conference and an apparent desire to take profits.

Movie Sidelights CAPITOL A cosmopolitan, sophisticated at mosphere provides the background fcr the film which marks the rise cf blonde Bette Davis to stardom. Her tremendous success la pictures during the past year resulted in Warner Bros, giving her the star ring role in “Ex-Lady,” which shows Thursday only at the Capi tol Theatre. The story is laid in the environ ment of New York’s Bohemia— the colorful atmosphere of the ar tist colony—with other scenes laid in Havana casinos and night clubs. Against this shifting scene is play ed the story of two young people, each with a career and with ad vanced ideas which make love and marriage more of a problem to them than it is to workaday folk. QUEEN Combining the talents of a group of modernists responsible for some of the stage and screen’s most brilliant comedy successes, “Pleas ure Cruise” the new Fox comedy, comes to the Queen Theatre Thurs day for an engagement of 2 days.
