A most cordial invitation is extended your important
group to consider Houston, Texas for your next conven-

good association with one of America's fastest growing
cities where ideal and ample air-conditioned facilities
and accommodations will be at your disposal.

May we express our sincere thanks for any effort you
might be able to exert in this behalf?
