OPEKA PLAINDEALER The Child Labor Law Should Ee Remodeled. The Present System is Crowding the Streets With Big, Stout, Lazy Boys! --- VOLUN The Child Progre DR. A. Progressive Oklahoma Business Men! DR. A H. TYSON. Grand Chancellor Knights of Pythias Wawoka, Oklah The A. H. Lyson is a rising his third turn as Grant Chancellor of the Order of Knights of Pythias, of the State of Oklahoma. In a few days he will go before the grand Lodge, at Lufauka, to render to that body a report on what the Lodge has been during the past year with a general review of the work has incomplished during the at workship. It is pleasant to note that he has presented a hard worker for the Lodge and a careful watchman of the funds. No order of the Lodge among Negroes will have a better report to make throughout, and it is hoped that the meeting of the present year will be a banquet one and that new life will be installed in the work and that the growth of work from this time on will be more aggressive, more pleasant and more effective than has marked the progress on the order in the past from the time that the class of the members of the national standing of the body has come to a point where every member should take renewed interest and the greater pride in an organization which has complished so much for the race in the new state. Three years ago, Dr. Lyson was elected to the office of Grand Chancellor, at a meeting held at Chukkshi Hall for the purpose of consolidating the lodges of the Indian Territory and Oklahoma. Provisions to statehood these two sections must and separate organizations with Dr. H. W. Conrad as Grand Chancellor of the territory of Oklahoma and Dave Nutt, Grand Chancellor of Indian Territory. The two Grand lodges were consolidated and Dr. Lyson elected as Grand Chancellor. At the consolidation the new Grand Lodge had an indebtedness of $1,500 and there was not enough money in the treasury to pay the expense of the supreme Chancellor to New Orleans. The consolidation reported 35 lodges and a membership of 718, many of whom were defunct. Matters for the young or older looked gloomy. The membership was not of a class of citizens who were able to liquidate the heavy indebtedness, and knowing ones shook their hearts doubly. Assuming the other, Dr. Lyson conceived a plan of his own to make a campaign among the business and professional men of the state and to enlist their support in making a representative order of the better class of Negroes, along lines which lutherds had not been attempted by any other order in the state. His appeal found sympathizers at once and gradually the Knights of Kythaa made its way among the best people of the state until today it boasts of the strongest membership of the best Negroes of the state. It is the order of the professional man, the teacher, the business man and the best class of citizens to be found in the state of Oklahoma. The order at present hosts of a membership on 25th, with 77 lodges in the state, with many applications for membership panning. Peace and harmony prevail in the jurisdiction and the usual sessions of the order are looked forward to as fraternal gatherings on the strongest significance. There are no factional differences in the order and its subscriptions mark it as a representative gathering of intelligent men, whose general department is in above the princecy. As a social feature, it can be truthfully said that the order of Knights of Pythias is regarded as one of the highest moral standing. Furthermore it is nothing a standing that will before many more sessions make it a strong institution for the betterment of the Negro race, along lines never attempted before by secret orders, an assertion warranted by the class of its members and their ability to do what, or they decide to accomplish. April 1, 1903, the order assumed control of the endowment fund, from the supreme Lodge, and since that period they have paid all back and blindness and all claims due to date with a fish tail notice on hand or 84 552 01, is a report for quarter ending June 10, 1911. The policy of the administration is "Pythiumism for Pythiums" and this policy has been carefully followed in every instance. Wherever it is possible to extend this policy to meet the interest of this rate it has been followed to the national society State course that it may have been given to Negro press the money has been deposited in Negro banks and if at any time in the future, under the present administration further efforts can be made to foster Negro enterprises or to encourage Negro effort, along my line, of it is the purpose of the administration to carry the policy still further. It is to the hope of the administration to en- courage the efforts of the young men who are going out into the world, in search of employment in the work, in search of higher education in both old and young and to make the knights of Pythias in example of the administration. Dr Tyson is at an expoint in the has demonstrated himself where others have failed and without build the olds of the order have been in good hands in moving him entrusted to Dr Tyson. It is to be hoped that the members of the order have not been slow to appreciate what he has willingly done for them in the past and that the coming session of the Trend Lodge, at Enfield, will give him the consideration due a man who has demonstrated an ability to handle only the affairs of others but who has also demonstrated that he is thoroughly capable of handling his own of affairs in a masterly manner. As a presiding officer he has been a credit to the organization. As manager of then business affairs he has done a service that is the highest testimonial of his ability to do things and to take care of emergencies. As an organizer he is without a peer in the state. Personally he has all the good qualities that should be sought in the selection of a man for an important position. The critical period in the affairs of the order has not been passed and without regard to personal pretensions and likes and dislikes the alliances of the order should be kept for another year. It hast, in the hands of an officer who is familiar with the present system of accounts and business basis. The uniform rank of the order will be in full working order within another year as a staff of officers and also have been appointed. An encouraging feature of which the administration feels especially proud is the fact that no lawsuits have ever been brought for the payment of claims against this order. DR. A II TYSON Grand Chancellor of the Knights of Pythias, State of Oklahoma, and Successful Physician Dr. A. H. Ison, of Wewoka, Ohio, is one of the few professional men of the new state who has made good in face of the strongest opposition, coming at a time when the avenues for the most professional man were just opening and it was up to Dr. Tyson to make a field for himself and give the way to those who might come after him. He chose the town of Wewoka and settled there in 1904, coming from the state of Iowa. He has practiced continually since locating there. As a testament to the growth of the community he has made a record that stands among the benefactions of the city, in devoting means which by the medley and loving might be assisted in a legitimate way through the choits of those who were in a position to extend favors in the way of credit and financial aid to the farmers who were opening the new country to the demands of the settlers, in consequence of those offices which were introduced by Dr. Lyons it can be said for his community that it has perhaps the most progressive settlement in the state. I am sure who have come into the country without means have made commissions of lands and stock that have placed them among the responsible man of the community and many of them are proud of their accumulations and have money to their credit in the banks. We wish to have invested their sums in the cheap banks of the section in which they live. Dr. Ivan is the organizer of the colloid Mutual Investment and trading company, of which company he is also the manager. This company has done a good business from the beginning and has amongst its patrons the best farms in Ireland and New York. The alone of the company is well stocked with good and more bonds and through the plans of the organization every kind of the firm is actually attended by three TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING, JULY 7, 1911 hardware dry goods, clothing and very most huge and small, is provided for until the crops are harvested and the accounts settled out of them. This institution is growing and has the support of the best people of the county and those who have seen its operation. As from the commercial feature referred to drive this institution gives employment to serving young men and with the growth of the plan more work will be offered and its benefits be more widely felt and appreciated. Dr. Tysone is also the organi- and presi- dent of the Wesoka Trust and Loan Company, one of the growing compi- nents of the state and also one of the greatest organizations of Negro effort and new advancement in the state. It is the nucleus of a great financial institu- tion for the young man of the race and will in time be considered among the great achievements of the Negro in Oklahoma. This institution has been of valuable s- ture to the Negro settler in that through its efforts finally have been able to get money from their own people to assist them in the development of their funds and to carry on their farming operations. This company has been able to carry long list of clients and applicants upon their books from the beginning and the business done by them has been satisfactory to both clients and stockholders since its organization In individually, Dr. Lyson has been a hard worker since he has been in the state and his practice has grown in proportion to his personal effort. His ability as a physician is recognized and his practice includes people of both sexes and among the best people in his community. In appreciation of his services his collection has been good and he has managed to make some good investments, which bring him a net income. He owns his home, a beautiful cottage in a desirable part of the city seven or eight rental houses and valuable farm property. His standing in the community is as good as any man laying there. He has the confidence of the best citizens regarded loss of race and the race may will accept him as their leader in matters where he has shown himself fitted to handle them affair. His family are of the class who command the highest respect of their neighbors and those who know them, and it can be fairly said of Dr. Iverson that he is a worthy representative of the race and its interests. 1111 MASONIC TEMPLE AT BOLEY. The Mission fraternity of the state of Oklahoma, among the Negroes, have an course of erection at Bokey Okla., a Mission hall to cost $30,000. The building is to be a three story bank stucco upon strictly modern plans. When this building is completed it will be one of the most elaborate and imposing structures to be found in my town of like size in the state of Oklahoma. It will be a monument to the ability of the Negro to organize and accomplish great results thereby. In every detail of the work the best skill and talent of the state has been brought in volume. The architects have tion and South, are of the best of their class to be found in this section and the plans for the building drawn by them have been made with a view to making an investment which would bring profit able returns as a commanded investment and at the same time the demands of a fraternal order in a growing state, where future needs must be considered. When the building is completed the Ma some maternity will have a temple that will call forth the adoration of the best people of the country, and Boky will be proud of the efforts that has made to secure this structure. It will be interesting to those who do not know, to call attention to the fact that the planning of the work of erecting a building of this type, a Masonic Temple, is not in the ordinary line of building, but belongs in a class to itself. This work demands the services of a contractor who understands this particular class of work, and the Masons have been for many years in working Mr. In. M. Cressman, a general contractor, with offices in Oklahoma City. Mr. Cressman makes the building of temples for international or domestic speciality and has a reputation along this line throughout the south west. He opinions on matters of this kind are given the highest consideration among builders. The masonry work in construction of Mr. C. F.

For Mr. Pinchum person- ally it can be said for him that he is one of the power citizens of this town, having done business in the town of Wash during the past eight years during which time he has been known as a man of clean cut business methods and a pleasant and agreeable man with whom to business. He will be pleased at any time to get in touch with those who have ties to sell or other, by telegraph or wire, if necessary.

Mr. Pancham combines the City Most Market and Grocery at Wellesley, at which place he has a patronage of the people of Clearview and the country in and around that section.

BRADLEY Justice of the Peace and Licensed Embalmer, Boley Okla Among the men who have taken the success of the town of Boley, Dr H. Boley delivers a Slate on praise and communication deserving more than a passing notice. As editor and publisher of the first paper in the town, he has done a good work for the race and the community.

The only complete electric light and power company in the United States owned, installed and operated by colorful men is located in the town of Bohio. This company operates a plant which supplies the town with light and power and it is time that has been the most of acting now and more substantial time of investment into the town of Bohio. The streets and buildings of the town are lighted by electricity from a plant of this company and the operations of the promoters of this enterprise have not been disappointed. The people of Bohio were quick to appreciate the need of such an enterprise and freely given their patronage to the new system of lighting. The success of the plan is now assured and the company will put in an order plant and manufacturer establishment as soon as it arrives on possibly be made for the new district.

MANAGER GRIFFIN Takes a Trip Into the Farming District In and Around Kingsheer County, Okla. and Crescent, Okla. The沸沸的男男 has first trip into the south west of southeast and cost of bengalsh and what he saw there is worth of note. In a general way it can be said that the most wack and progressive settlement of people we have ever not met is found in this settlement. Negroes own hundreds of acres in the very best lands and those they have in a high state of cultivation and most interesting and substantial of all we saw the fact that these people all carry amounts in banks and most of that business and pay them bills in checks upon the banks of the cities. In protecting them it helps they have limits on standing in their communities which makes it pleasant and inspiring to meet them and to enjoy their hospitality. Arriving at the hotel, the information from the hotel was given to the hotel ```markdown ``` PAUL JOL E HERIFORD, OREGON Race Foremost Educators, New Arkansas Post ig, Stout, Lazy Boys! since we have received in the state, and at a cost no higher than that in other places.

Wells, formerly of Houston, Texas, who are conducting a garment factory and are doing good business They are very industrious people. They have many lines of industry which they are teaching the people in connection with their regular work. I learned of the district conference of the Tulsa district being in session at the A. M. E. church, of which Dr. J. A Johnson is pastor. There were visiting ministers in the person of Rev. T. W. Kidd of Boley; Rev. P. F. A. R Dobbins of the Muskogee district, Rev. Burton of Wybark, P. E. L. E. Nelson of the Ft. Gibson district and many others. Rev. William Seals, P. E. of the Tulsa district, made it very pleasant for all, together with the management of the pastor, Dr. Johnson, so the conference was one of pleasure, business and success. I felt Tulsa for Guthrie, but after missing my train at Chandler, I went on to Luther, and while waiting for the Katy I called at the office of Dr James Cox, whom I had known when a small boy in Columbus, Kans., where his mother and father lived before moving to Oklahoma. Dr. Cox is making a great name and record for himself as a physician, he has a splendid practice which keeps him always on the way to relieve the sick and distressed. He has a large field in which to work.

The Wimming of the surf along the edges of walks and flower beds is an important feature and a work that requires a certain amount of skill and experience, if done with careful tools. A New Hampshire man however has developed an intelligent tool that he calls the rotary lawn W Rotary Tuff Trimmer. which contains the largest two of the grass mostly trimmed. The older consist of a long handle and a short steel mounted at the lower end. The wheel can be held stationary by means of a cotter pin, but under normal conditions it resolves. A step on the bottom of the handle crulls the groomer to press the wiper into the turf with the foot and by turning the tool along the edge of a wall the grass there can be trimmed in rapid time. GIVE THE VEGETABLES ROOM Probably More Garden Truck Runs For Wart of Being Thinred Than by Any Other Cause. Do not be afraid to thin out your plants they must not be crowded. Probably more garden stuff has been ruined for want of being thinned at the proper time than by any other cause. However that may be, one of the most puzzling things for the beginner is to find out whether any particular vegetable should be thinned or transplanted and how far apart the plants should stand afterward. He will get some help from the catalogues as to the distances, but whether he should transplant or thin is the kind of thing that is not in the book. It requires a great deal of nerve to pull up and destroy the unnecessary scrolling - more nerve than the amateur possesses. They say that a person never becomes a good gardener until he stocks his nerve to this ruthless sacrifice. A vegetable must have plenty of room to develop its best size and flavor and one to take no pride in small or compact vegetables. True it is the worst wood to corn is corn. FARM NOTES If you want a lot of birds you won't have to buy a place. Birds do not need any in their care. They are well served and they can eat a lot of food out the house and save the money. They are good companions to a pet and need blind. If they are not desired it is a great thing to know just when a plant needs water. It is not matter that it is close observation. Be careful in the other man's look and right at the bird. It is likely reported in the sections of birds and birds. Better investigate the water is a good to use little treatment to purify the fish of the interaction with the water or water and water the plants. I just crops should be planted for gather in well as vine crops, such as squinters melons etc., also tomatoes to pair apples and the like. Two essentials are necessary for the rapid maturing of vegetables—a soil made light with sand and rich with well roasted manure and a wind break. The city house wife cannot under stand why the farmers are not all rich when she considers the enormous price she pays for vegetables and fruit. A well planned garden is one that will allow us much of it as possible to be cultivated with a horse. Hooping in the garden doesn't set well with trust of us. that to plant crops that live from year to year fill the apurugus, rhubarb, strawberries and the like, at one end so that they will not interfere when we cultivate the annual vegetable Jack Johnson Goes to England With Diamonds and White Wife 1932 JACK JOHNSON, champion heavyweight pugilist, has gone to England with his diamonds and his white wife. After witnessing the coronation festivities he will appear in a London music hall and will then make a tour of Europe by auto. He took two American cars with him and a pogro chaundom to run the one belonging to his wife. Johnson will run his own car, the high powered racer that caused his arrest several times in this country. As France has practically no speed regulations for autos, he expects to "burn up" the roads of that country. Johnson and his wife traveled from New York as first class passengers. The slew of the steamboat arranged a separate (able for him and his wife, and the other passengers did not have to associate with them unless they wished to do so). Before the ship rolled Johnson and his wife posed for numerous photographers, and Johnson gravely explained that he did not expect to see living George. One of the reporters who witnessed the departure of the champion said that he was wearing only his "morning jewels, a small memorial window in his shirt front and several chunks of cut glass on his fingers." The pictures above show Johnson and his wife and a separate view of the pugilist and his famous golden stole. W. R.

The leaf roller is a little insect that in its larva stage is injurious to straw berries When your cows do not pay for their feed, it's time to change the feed or the cows To do good work the cream separator must be level and on a good soil foundation Alfalfa is one of the oldest cultivated plants the farmers of the world have knowledge of In cutting tracts of timber the owner should aim to grow a young and vigorous forest in place of the old one. If you have a patch of anything green let the chickens run on it. They will scratch up a lot of hibernating insects. The silo enables the dairyman to keep more livestock on the same number of acres and at less cost in feed and labor. Only potatoes entirely free from disease should be planted, for diseased seed will be sure to grow a diseased crop. The term "bush fruits" includes a great variety of small fruits, which are borne on low growing, upright or trailing woody stems. Every dairyman should conduct his business in such a manner that he can say to any man "I am a dairyman and I am proud of it" There is no crop which will furnish as large an amount of nutritious feed for hogs as alfalfa after it has once gotten a good growing start. The farmer who plants corn that he is not sure will grow is acting as sensibly as the man who loads a gun with ball but no powder. Every successful poultry breeder is frequently asked which breed of poultry is the best, and he as often has to say that there is no "best" breed. Provide clean, dry hay or straw or a suitable material for the nests, renew the material frequently and always when it becomes wet and soiled. Plan to raise a fine flock of general purpose standard bred birds this season. They will yield much more satisfaction and profit than a mixed flock. The liquid manure contains a large part of the nitrogen solded by the animal, and is therefor of especial value, and should be taken up by straw or other litter. A whole lot of the trouble caused by the marketing of stale eggs is caused by the lack of nests. The hen hides her nest and sometimes the eggs are not discovered for days. Bad health weak vitality of breeding stock, insufficient moisture or the lack of it in the incubator, and the lack of attention on the part of the operator is the cause of chicks dying in the shell. More broilers, squabs and capons are being demanded each year. Of course, more are also being produced, but there are plenty of good markets left for all the chicken products that can be produced Spinach is one of the best things to grow. It is better to sow it in the fall for as a rule it cannot be sown early enough in the spring to get a good start. However we have seen many fine beds of spring grown spinach. It should be borne in mind that the roots of alfalfa are fine and tender and are not liable to start well in a coarse or cloudy soil, so it is exceedingly important to put the seed bed in the very best condition, as fine as for garden seeds. Live Stock Trouble May Be Corrected by Applica- tion of Cold Water and Lo- tion of Acetate of Lead. A round, smooth tumor at the front and on the inside of the hock. It is the result of sprains, bruises or other injuries. When these injuries occur too much joint oil is secreted, causing a bulging of the ligament. Lameness seldom accompanies a bog spavin. If lameness be present other structures are certain to be affected, and some pain and heat will be noticed, together with a stiffness of the joint. Treatment consists of applications of cold water to the affected parts and a lotion made of two tablespoonfuls acetate of lead in a quart of water. A blister made of one tenspoonful binodide of mercury and four tablespoonfuls lard, rubbed in a little with the fingers, and repeated ```markdown ``` in ten days or two weeks and continued for some months, will correct the trouble. Wash the parts having received the blister twenty four hours after application. It is also advisable to tie the horse's head while the blister is on, so that he cannot bite the part. FLESH FLIES BOTHER SHEEP Flock Should Be Watched Closely, Especially In Warm, Damp Weather, to Keep Pests Away. When the sheep's wool becomes filthy and the skin irritated an ideal condition is made for the work of the maggot fly. And when the maggots get a start they create a more and more friendly harbor for their kind as they work and increase in numbers under the wool, says the Sheep Breeder. A sheep infected with maggots is a most pitiful sight, helpless against the parasites eating out its flesh until sheep dies, its life gnawed out in a most cruel manner. For the sake of humanity, if for no other reason, sheep should be saved from such suffering. These flies can do no damage if not given a suitable place to lay their eggs. Sheep should be watched carefully, especially in warm, damp weather, and dirty tug locks or other fifth clipped off and a little tar dabbed on if the skin is chafed. These maggots also get in their work under ram's horns. Indeed a ram with heavy horns lying close to his head will hardly pass through a summer without infection unless the flies are kept away by putting some tar on the ram's head. An infected sheep can be told by the fact that it refuses to eat, stands with its head down and most often by itself, and stamps its feet or ferks its head exactly as irritation by maggots would lead one to expect. The remedy is simple. Cut away the wool close. Clean out all maggots, using turpentine to wash them out. Smear the place thoroughly with tar. Then keep watch of the sheep to see that the files do not again start in the same place. Thoroughness in cleaning out the parasites is essential, for one left in will start the damage all over. The Ideal Horse Stable A well known stockman says: The Meal stable should have the horse facing north to obtain an even temperature, it should not be too large so that you keep the animal heat under control, and not have stable temperature either materially raised or lowered when half a dozen animals are either taken out or brought in. The ventilation should be perfect and as strong as possible up to the iniquitous draught point. Let the ceiling be as high as convenient, and if the wise builder has left an inch or so open around the upper edge, where the stablemen cannot stop it up all the better. Apples for Colts. Apples given in small quantities make an excellent feed for colts. There is no better way of getting on good terms with the youngsters than by quartering sweet apples and feeding to them from the hand. Pole Vaulting Requires Nerve As Well as Skill and Strength HE WILL BE THRILL AND STRONG! POLL: vaulting is a form of athletics that is a tremendous strain on the contestants. It requires strength, skill and nerve, and there is also an awful foiling when the vaulter drops after letting go of the pole that has enabled him to throw his body ten or twelve feet into the air. In the regular contest there is always a soft spot of ground prepared for lighting, but it is not always possible to strike it, and often the athlete drops on to ground that is hard and thereby receives a shock to nerves, bones and muscles that will be long remembered. Just think of jumping from a height of twelve or thirteen feet and dropping on the hard ground and you will appreciate what the pole vaulter does. Sometimes the pole breaks, and then the athlete is not always able to land on his feet, but may break a limb or cause a strain that will be serious. The above picture shows Robert Gardner of Yale competing in the intercollegiate contest at Cambridge when he tied with three others, all of whom made twelve feet. The record is 12 feet 10k inches.
