Genlemen, remove your caps and place them over your chest, held in your right hand, facing the flag.
Ladies and gentlemen place your right hand over your left breast, facing the flag.
Non-residents will also stand, but not place their hands over their hearts, facing the flag.
"Texas, Our Texas"

And don't forget the Pledge of Allegiance to the Texas flag:
"Honor the Texas Flag. I pledge allegiance to thee, Texas, one and indivisible!"
About the only place you'll see it done nowadays is at a Texas Masonic lodge meeting.
