1934 - Sam Houston Kin In College

Here is another interesting news article from The Oklahoman, dated Oct. 28, 1934, page 56, with headlines reading: "Sam Houston's Kin In College - Great Granddaughter Is In Alva School."

Alva, Oct. 27, 1934 -- AP -- "Pretty Margaret Houston, great granddaughter of Gen. Sam Houston and grand daughter of Temple Houston, a man whose picturesque career in the southwest is perhaps surpassed only by his father's, is enrolled in Northwestern State Teachers college, Alva.

Margaret may well be proud of her family heritage and she very ably lives up to the tradition of the Houston women for loveliness. Large, limpid brown eyes, skin as fair and smooth as cream colored satin, scarlet lips that need no rouge, almost black hair -- truly one of raven's.

The Houston men are noted for their fiery temper, courage and generosity. The Houston women are just as famed for their beauty. Margaret is the daughter of Sam Houston III, on the staff of Oklahoma Military Academy, Claremore."
