Its the proper thing for the federal government to raise taxes, but when GovernorMurray sees , the need-of doing the same thing for the state, then a few small fryin the newspaper field, who think they ou.t some ice, take him to task for it. aWs would like to :e, the papers get consistent, maybe it would help the nation.

There is a great deal of kick now days on the office hol .er, but the office ofparent to this great youth of ours is not elected to office by the dear people brtis ordained and selected by nature, however ail that may be, and these clays ofdepression and fear, not to mention poverty Sul strife, don't hold forth much of a ..boost for the parents. It can be affirmed that the times are doing better for thechildren than the parents saw fit to do in times of opulence, or whatever it was.

The difference between a member of congress and the man of the home is this: thesenator or congres&-man believes that to balance a budget he rust borrow some moremoney while the man of the home finds it more practical to cut out some part of thebudget that is lose essentials

There was a young man sent to congressWho made of the whole thing a great messUntil oneday the dear folksGot tired of such jokesAnd now the young man is quite jobless.

A few more Haw-Smoot tariff measures and there will be ageneral retirement, not ofcourse one that is passive,but effective never the less. It is strange to hearone always pratting about how small the world is and how im2ossible to avoidentangling alliances and yet will vote to completely wallthis country off from therest of the commercial world with a tariff that prohibits foreign trade. If theeditors and newspaper people Fzuld happen to get t heir consistency on straight and

keep it that way, they would command a much greater respect of the people,

Nothing is safe in these :Lays of depression, a scientist has now broken the atom.

Speaking of choosers, the .niftie.st little non–shoos r. wws Calyi

Dick Elam of the Wewoka Times–Democrat has at last • ,taken a stand, he is againstJustice Clark for the Supreme Court. ''his action brings a faint hope that LutherHarrison and Tom D. McKeown may yet take a definite stand on some public quo-It

Which reminds as that when the bridge across the South Lanadian River was dedicatedand named the McKeown Bridge, Ford Harrison, a bother of Lather's and a very positivecharacter wrote in his Allen paper that . the -ohoicxe of name for the bridge was themoss appropriate possible for Mc}eown had straddled every public question in thtefourth congressional district :except the South_ Qana.dian.

Some absent minded 'scientist tells us that only the female wasp- his a sting. l'he` -trouble with us is we cannot tell which is male and which female d , oo, . 'ru _ -ndisposition might ge't us into trouble.

• There was a young man named BorahVho says that he feels rather sore-sh .`For the Republican' plankAbout whiskey is rankAnd was written,no doubt, by Dumb Dora;--

not This Senator Borah isIsatiafied wi h the Republican platform a-tall.. Well, well,if

or chairman of -foreign relations committee carntot understand dilomatio language whatare we really going- to do about its phis platform-thing is just h little 'diplomat cex:;hange between the great, republican party to'the "sometimes voters and'was notintended to be understood, much less` men something..

Those` who are so- strenuously preparing to fight G verno'rs i'nooxie tart bill should-have , the prize for 'the chief optomists.- The must be expecting -some heavy" come;"The grand old republi=can propperity will take care of the situMion.

We have always known that: a Man's friends were the beet thing 1n 'this hife, butwe sure do begrudge Jimmie :Wa kter the-type of help-fu.l 'friends he possesses,' '. OUi'friends give us the "glad Hand" but we are constrained to believe their check writingarmis broken.

An exchange states that parrots now days sign instead of ouss.-If-its singing,allright but if it "crooning" we hasten to say we like the old things the best. Agood tosser now and then is helpful, bat-a arolmer is an abomination in the eight ofboth God and man.

And there are two other things we would like for some helpful soul to eliminate fromthe radi e: ' f..e ` etatio and--the ' oopyv right : amber s. °' e

We are an emotional people. Our greatest effort is extended toward thepreservation, aid and assistance of the mentally and physically unfit. Our manysystems of charitable undertakings are but a sop to the unfit, to those who underthe most favorable circumstances will never render a service to the human family.The greatest human trait is to seek the line of least- resistance in providingsustainanoe and when the necessity is removed by questionable charitable institutionsto provide for one's self the subject is weakened. Strength is engendered by anecessitous ttfs circumstance, remove it and the subject is weakened to the sameextent. `yhese times are strengthening, axe calculated to bring forth sturdycharacters.

We are enclined to desire a few ideas smeared around through our conversation withour fellow man. Just a chatter of words devoid of ideas does not make conversationalthough there is a number of our friends who seem to think id does.

There was a young lady who chatteredAbout things that were real assinineNever uttered a *b dgkt that 'een smatteredOf a thought that was real genuine.

And she died, and started. that jour ayThat laststhrough eternity;You can guess where this jaunt carried sister?Oh; Nell, that's where she ought to be.

No home I s free from danger from the ad valorem tax.And you loose your disposition as your souls with anger waxBat when yourvote can save your home and farm, too, without doubtYou simply vote against it, cause. Bill Murray itkought it out.

•You just listen to the papers as they rant with vengence vileAgainst a limitation that will save your home a while;XQd go and vote your spite against a th ing that's for your goodThen cuss yourself for doing it, while chewing of your cud.

You'd better take a fool's aviee and pat that limit onFor you'll surely wish you'd done it, when your worldly goods are gone.You better take this only ohance to give yourself a liftAnd vote to LIMIT taxes on next July the fifth.

Some rant around and say that a majority of the voters -in a school district--can-._never be prev3.Iled upon to go out and vote the extra mills for school purposes. Wethought this was a government of the majority en they rust do so, they will,donttget frightened about the people not doing so. We raise the devil about high taxes onour properties and then when we get a chance to lower them and restrict the officialspenders we dont do it. We ought to be stung. And another thing, if the presentsystem of ad valorum confistication gene of properties goes on, the schoolscannot be maintained. These :lays of stress call for a curb on things generally andsuch a constitutional limitation will save properties.

Early Morning.

The graceful Mocking Bird, in spirals gay,

Wheels to the top most tip of the yard's Blue spruce

And taxapzxkkckagxmug light heartedly welcomes the day

In a burst of song; telling its rapture profuse.

And the old Blue Jay with its raucous cry

Swings down to the lilly pone for a morning dip

And arrogantly i skkazaxits flickers a haughty eye

On each new arrival; uttering a warning quip.

And the shy brown thursb, in its furtive way

Darts in and out of the near by bush

And shuns all neighbors, both brash and gay,

Utterings itscry in a kindly. skankz Hush

And the Jenny Wren, in a voice that is glad

Sends forth a song filled with boundless gleez

That seems to say: " Row can one be sa ?

.Come, join in life's eostacy with me."

Aid the Cardinal Red bird in colors bright

Approaches the throng in a apriightly mode

And offers his song, and a beautiful sight,

To attract attention to his handsome vogue.

And a horde of sparrows, with words of abuse,

oop down in the throng and try to incite

A conflict And with manner far from being abstruse

Give their challenge to all and exhibit their might.

Then the sun come up, sending a brilliant ray

To dispel the group to their various chores,departs from this hour of play;

And eaehj ,faak1xxawaapzzttxata=xaatyAll, save the sparrows, the churlish bores.

But the sparrows stay on, in the morning's din,

To add their noise and combative dissension

To the discords aroused by the duties of men.

They just fight and dispute in eternal contention.

It should not be supposed that it habitual, this viewing the

coming of day, to one who is more addicted to repose. It was just a

chance superimposed by our penchant for "Little Orderlies"`.

Your old friend, Rufe Hoskins remarked to me, that the mightiest

pessimist is the one who provides his car with a "defroster* during

the summermonths.

The naughty little sparrow goes up the water spout

Along come the rain and drives the little devil out.

The sun comes out, and drives away the rain;

And the dirty little devil goes up the spout again.

If men possessed the apparent determination and vim of the English

sparrow there would certainly be no need of the present day charity

endeavors. Depression cuts no figure with this little warrior of the

feathered gentry. His troubles are many, and he makes many that he

could get out of,. His wants are many

The Skipper calls for volunteers

To write this colume rare

Sp we beckon oar muse and put to use

The beat of our rusty ware.

While W.W.M. is testing his luck

Hunting the festive duck

We will be* for our friend, if takes the skin

And pray we dont run. amuck.

This colume ie known throughout the state

Its excelleire is peat debate

$o we approach our subject timidly

And are prone to hesitate.

We will start our work with a desire to shirk

While Walt is far away;

And we hope no court will need report

This as libelous on him, per so.

which reminds us that perhaps the reason why no more attorneys of thestate testified in the Owens libel trial was because they were afraidthey would be asked to state the rule in Shelly's case.

According to all interested the decision and verdict in that case wasagreeable to all parties involved. Another rw: non why that was a mostremarkable case.

The eminele oil field is a great little makers it made Seminole Grantsthe richest in the world; it made the oil fraternity sit up and takenotice; it made Wall street scratch its head where it dont itch; It madethe Federal government contemplate control; •it mace a new record inproduction; it ' mate Oklahoma ithe leader of all, other states in oil; itma ^e Oklahoma the center of attention throughout the world and it lade eWEWOKA the busiest city in the state and therefore the world.

I'm darned if I know whether I am living in a home or a kennel thesedays, With a Pekingese mother and fire little Pokes that look ikeseals, it is just a dog's life for me. If I ,dot half the attention 'dice.Pokes do I would be the envy o every married man. in the neighborhood.

Ruth Elder sailed three thousand miles

With a lone man in the pit

While hubby stays in Panama

And dent seeta to mind,abit.

New Fork, and other foreign cities like Chicago and Pittsburg, mayroar their welcome to Ruth all they want to but we are going to continuenot to get excited about her. If she craves to risk her neck for alittld. transcient publicity, all well, we do not object. But we aregoing right on holding to the *of, idea that the mother in the homeis the grandest institution in this world of cure. If all the girlsleft their homes and took to flying around, wouldent this be a helluvaplace to live?

J.p ; RO:5K:lh is occupying the hu ter8e blind with W.W.M. at McAlesterlake for a short spell.

Bad Brinefield,hunter and fisherman extraordinary, said he strung abig fishworm on a hook the other day and dipped it into a jar of cornhiskey and he hardly had it in the water until there was a terrible

commotion and when he palled it out the worm had a five pound bass bythe nap of the neck just shaking the dickens out of it.

Now, since the Corporation Commission he controlled controlled the out put ofoil in the Seminole field and sent it on a decline, perhaps it willturn its attention to the boll wevtl crop in this county,

nax die, for one, kick on Pula seceding from this continent. In thefirst place Scandinavia is the only place it could go, and danged ifI want to go way over there to sell an oil leave.

The Princess of the house-hold rushed into the room' frantically lookingfor something. She said it was her lipstick and she wanted to hide itfrom mamma. Which goes 'to show that the mothers of to-day are keepingexact step with the times., It is said that the man of fifty to-dayis younger than *he of thirty five of half a century age, but thefemale of the specie is twenty five years younger and happier than ingrandmas t s time. Emancipation they call it, we call it common sense,

The young people down at Norman are revolting against a rmltita a ofsilly rules. We sympathize with thus. Somebody has the idea that is areformatory and not an institution of higher education. The policyadopted smacks of the country school. The whole country has gone toseed on laws. Proper education with obviate the necessity of many r laws.There is just one rule necessary down at the University and that isone requiring a certain high standard of scholarship. If that standardis not made by the individual student, then immediately, and withoutfear or favor, drop them from the rolls. The Young people have prideand ambition. Sooner than all others they will find that Jess andefficiency do not go together. Those worth while will make the grades,those networth while will be sent back home where they belong. A higher

class of school will be the result. By this means the student is

placed on her or his own resonsibility. If they want to stay out allnight, let them, but require the high standard to be met. They will soonfind out they met study to make the grade, The big schools of the landadopt this policy and it has met with success. O.U. is big enough nowto step into the class with Berkeley andd, Colombia. If the young peopleare invited to the university with the promise of social life, theyare gain:=; to expect to pursue it within reasonable bounds; but if theyunderstand in the beginning that a certain standard met be made, theirpride will make them meet the requirements.
