On a huge mound overlooking the city of Aleppo stood the massive citadel against which the most fierce attacks it the Christian Invaders failed. This citadel wa the rallying center for the Moslems, while Antioch to the west remained under control of the Crusaders. A wide moat surrounded it, and it could be approached only through a gigantic double gateway. Only when the Emperor Tamerlane invaded Syria late In the 14th century did this fortress fall under the battering of his siege engines. Today, the citadel serves as quarters for a French garrison.

If that is not adding insult to injury please advise me what you would regard as a hard kick in the haberdashery. Most of last year, the state gas tax amounted to from a third to a half the price of gasoline highway robbery with insult added and compounded. The little fellows never kick about taxes to any' effect, bo we listen to the big boys and regard Uncle Sam as a robber. The fact is that the federal income tax set-u- p is very fair to all but the men of wealth, but the state system is designed entirely to take from those who have not, especially the wage earner and the salaried man. The business man can usually claim, and get, exemptions, if he employs a smart tax accountant, but the lad with his little pay check gets the old gyp plenty abundant. Heck, I cant even charge up my state income tax on my state list for the boys dont regard it as a tax. I guess they are right. It isn't a tax it is an impost, a flat for the training, at government expense, of young men and women who would enter the diplomatic and civil service . . .

These are pay days. The historic interest of the west in this big Texas celebration lies in the fact that the heroes of 100 years ago who wrested the province from Mexico and established a Republic of Texas, then joined the Union ten years later paved the way for the extension of the United States to the waters of the Pacific. It is well for the people of any region to visit other sections of this great country and those who will travel afar this summer can find no more interesting vacation state to visit than Texas in its Centennial year.
