er oe RAY TLE Texans remember Sesquicentennial through festivities “Remember the Alamo!”’ echoed throughout t he halls of the mission in 1836, the turning point in the battle for independence from Mexico. i Now 150 years later, Texans celebrated their Sesquicen- tennial in a variety of ways. One activity was a cov- ered wagon train that trav- elled throughout Texas. For another, schools and busin- esses were given a holiday on April 21. “I spent my holi- day sleeping in and taking it easy,” said senior Harold Ross. Not to be left out was the abundance of souveniers. According to the ‘Dallas Morning News,”’ there were 550 products available to the stores just for the Ses- quicentennial. Some of the items included posters of famous Texans, glasses, watches, and the official Sesquicentennial Colt single action .45 caliber gun for only $7,995. Texas was not the only one celebrating a Sesquicen- tennial. Australia also had a 150th anniversary. Two Australian students spent six weeks in Garland and during that time talked to the Key Club at its weekly meeting. ‘““They were spend- Pace House Restoration A Garland Sesquicentennial!
