ImaHoggIma and Ura Hogg. An old Texas joke. There was no Ura. No Hoosa, either. But there was a Miss Ima. And, besides being gorgeous, and the daughter of a governor, she was a great philanthropist, too.

    My grandson came in spouting that old saw yesterday after school. Had to disabuse him of it, with a grin.

    She’s pretty indeed. She got her looks from her mother, no doubt. Gov. Hogg was an eponymous name, sort of a Texas version of President Taft.
