National Ass'n for ored People Hold
New York, Jan. 6.—Discrimination against the negro was the topic at the annual meeting of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People held here. Oswald G. Vallard, chairman of the board of directors of the organization, presided and was one of the principal speakers.
He protested against the recent discharge of colored employees in the federal service at Atlanta, Ga., and quoted the collector there as saying that "there was no place for a colored office holder in the South." He put the organization on record as demand ing that Secretary McAdoo declare himself on this question.
Mrs. Bell C. LaFollette, wife of Senator LaFollette, spoke against the segregation of negroes in the federal office at Washington, D. C. Charles E. Russell dwelt on similar problems said to confront the negor race.
$200,000 Santa's Gift TO A WidOW
Mortgaged Farm Saved By Bringing in of Producing Oil Well
OKMULGEE, Okla., Dec. 27.—(Special.)—An eighty acre farm in Okmulgee county with five producing wells and others being drilled was the best Christmas gift that Mrs. Lottie Hammock, a widow and seven little children found in her Christmas stocking.
E. W. Kimbley, known to the oil fraternity as "Dry Hole" Kimbley, was the Santa Clause who brought Mrs. Hammock this present which is valued now at $200,000 and is constantly increasing in value.
Mrs. Hammock's husband died some time ago leaving her an eighty acre farm heavily mortgaged. The buildings on the farm are of the poorest and the land was not good farming land. The widow struggled with the mortgage for a time but three months ago the little farm was advertised for sale under the mortgage foreclosure.
Mr. Kimbley heard of the woman's plight and talked with several other wealthy oil men. They decided to drill a test well on the land in hopes that they might strike oil and lift the family out of poverty. An injunction against the foreclosure sale was secured and the oil men who had interested themselves in the case assumed the mortgage indebtedness and put up the money to drill a test well. The first well resulted in the discovery of the now famous Booch sand pool northeast of Morris and made a fortune not only for the widow but for many other people who have oil interests in that district.
There are now five producing wells on the little farm and others are being drilled. The mortgage on the farm was paid weeks ago and when the deeds were made and given Mrs. Hammock Christmas eve she was also given a bank book with the nice little fortune of $200,000 to her credit.
Mr. Kimbley is one of the oil men of Oklahoma who has known what it meant to rise to riches after a long siege of hard luck. He drilled well af-

ter well, took lease after lease and for years failed to get a producing well. His friends in the oil fraternity finally dubbed him "Dry Hole" Kimbley and considered him a hoodoo. But "Dry Hole" Kimbley set his teeth and fought fate. And some time ago he brought in a test well that was one of the largest in the Morris field. From that time on his luck changed and he began piling up money in a phenomenal manner. He is almost a millionaire now and everything that he touches seems to turn to gold. But with his sudden rise to wealth he has not forgotten to give a helping hand to the needy.
Medical Inspection of Schools.
"Medical inspection of schools has rendered the school nurse inevitable," declares Dr. Ernest Bryant Hoag in a bulleton on "Organized Health Work" just issued by the United States bureau of education.
"Without an effective follow-up service conducted by visiting nurses, medical inspection is ineffective. Until 1908 New York City relied upon postal cards sent to parents of defective children, and was able to secure action in only 6 per cent of the cases where treatment was recommended, immediately upon placing the follow-up service in the hands of the school nurses the percentage increased to 84.
"The nurse effects what no other agency could accomplish. She not only secures action in the case at hand, but she becomes a permanent advisory influence in the homes where the visits
"By virtue of her room-to-room visitation, and her opportunities for observation, the school nurse also becomes the ideal sanitary inspector she notes temperatures, ventilation, seating cleanliness of rooms, toilers, blackboards and the clothes of children. Her hospital standards of sanitation tend to follow her fint, the schools.
"The school nurse is first and lastiant, but fon* mothers in the best methods of feeding, clothing, and caring for their children. She is received in their homes as no other official visitor could possibly be. Dr. Osler does not overstate the case when he says that the visiting nurse is 'a ministering arm everywhere.'
That the trained nurse is a good economic investment is evidenced by the fact that some of the large insurance companies find it to their interest to employ a number of them to visit the homes of policy holders, and give instructions in matters pertaining to hygiene. Department stores and fastories also find it good business to employ nurses to look after the health of thei employees and to teach them personal hygiene.
"The number of school nurses needed varies somewhat according to social conditions and according to the range of duties expected of them. We find all the way from 1,000 to 10,000 children under the care of one nurse. In New York City each nurse has from two to seven schools with a total attendance of about 4,000 children. In Philadelphia five schools and about 5,000 children are usually allotted to one nurse, while in Boston the pro-
Sayes He Dynamited
portion of nurses is almost twice as great.
"It is not improbable that the ratio will be increased until it reaches an average of one nurse for each -,000 of the school enrollment. If there were one nurse for every 2,000 pupils, about 10,000 nurses would be required in the entire United States. A nurse's room completely equipped is coming to be regarded as one of the essentials in every school building of eight or more rooms."

NORMAN, Okla., Dec. 18.—(Special.)—According to figures in the office of the Oklahoma geological survey here, the production of oil in Oklahoma during 1913 will far exceed that of any other year. While the returns are not final, they are regarded as sufficiently accurate to give a close approximation for the year. They are based largely on the returns of pipe line companies and consumption by refineries, supplemented by close estimates for the present month. Writers for the several oil and gas journals who are always close to actual facts of production are in substantial accord, with the following figures for year by months.

SOCIAL EQUALITY CONFERENCE HEARS AN OUT-BREAK FROM A NE GRO PREACHER.
Washington, Jan. 8.—Negroes were tonight urged to stop buying musical instruments and sending their children to dancing schools, and advised to spend their money for guns and military education by the Rev. I. N. Ross, pastor of a Washington negro church, speaking to a large crowd assembled to celebrate the birthday of Charles Sumner.
The preacher pleaded with the audience to prepare for war for their social, political and industrial rights: "Prepare for war in times of peace is the policy of this nation," he shouted. "It should be your policy, if you wish to break from the oppression, from the fetters of this era of new slavery."
Cries of "We are with you: that's right," greeted the speaker and the audience rose waving handkerchiefs and urging Ross to "go on." When Oswald Garrison Villard of New York vigerously dissented from Ross's advice, the preacher again rose and repeated his decision, drawing another enthusiastic outburst of approval. P. O. at Tulsa.
Springfield, Ill., Jan. 6.—In the arrest here of Samuel Turner, colored, of Denison, Texas, the police believe they have apprehended a violator of the federal patrol law. Turner was taken by officers Henry Kramer and Foster with James Robinson, colored of this city on the charge of stealing coal in the B. & O. railroad yards. When taken to police headquarters, the prisoner admitted that he had served eighteen months at Boonville, Oklahoma, for blowing a postoffice safe at Tulsa, Oklahoma a few years ago and the police say that he had not lived up to the government parol law after being released by pardon from the federal prison.
sanguine hopes of the operators at the beginning of the year.
Sufficient returns are not yet at hand to give accurately the average price of oil for the year, but it will probably be not far from 95 cents a barrel. Assuming this average price the total value of oil for the year was about 60,560,146. This amount is greater than the value of the state's total value of all our mineral products amounted to about $53,000,000 and will swell to the total value of our mineral values for 1913 enough to make Oklahoma one of the leaders in mineral production. The total value of gas, coal, cement and other mineral products will be at least as great as for last year, and therefore the total value of all our mineral products for the present year will approximate $80,000,000—Tulsa World, December 19 1913.

Romance of Great pacific oil well
New Regulation Miled to All of The Postmasters.
By far the most spectacular oil well in the world, is the Lakeview. This wonderful well "gushed" steadily for eighteen months at the rate of 30,000 barrels a day. The story of the "coming in" of the Lakeview is very vividly told by one the owners in the January Wide World.
At midnight on March 15, he states, the oil sand was entered in well No. 1, which started to "gush," but choked up in a few minutes, following which nothing was done until 7 o'clock Tuesday morning when the bailer was dropped down the hole to loosen the sand. Suddenly, during the progress of the churning, the bridge was broken up and the bailer shot up out of the hole with terrific force, lodging half way through the crown block at the top of the derrick. Until 8 o'clock on Tuesday evening when it again surged up "twenty-four gravity" oil shot out of the hole at the rate of 30,000 barrels a day. Then after being quiet for an hour and a half, the well again broke loose with greater force than ever, shooting stones the size of doubled fists, mixed with sand and oil, up through the casing, which was over six inches and a half in thickness. These missils literally wore out and cut loose the crown block and cap timbers, releasing the bailer. The well next spotted rapidly, but with a geyser-like action, through the opening, hurling the oil about 200 feet high. The spectacle on Wednesday morning was plainly visible to passengers on the train twenty-three miles east of Maricopa. During a windstorm on Wednesday afternoon the spray ruined all wearing apparel exposed at Maricopa, two miles away.
The following day the flow was measured both by the standard and independent gages, and between the hours of 11 a. m. and 3 p. m. 32,000 barrels were pumped through one six-inch and one four-inch pipe into the tanks, the oil being caught in a series of reservoirs, the last of which is of 1,000,000 barrel capacity.
On June 22, 100 days after the well was "brought in," the estimate was made that 4,000,000 barrels of oil had been produced, worth about $2,500,000. The flow had not diminished at the end of this period, and the well went on "gushing" for eighteen months. This was two years ago. At last they succeeded in capping the well, and it then went on producing in a steady and dignified manner.
Last year, in that proud and cultured New England state, which is too high-toned to think except with contempt, of such devices as the I. and R., the recall of judges, or the taking over of public utilities in furtherance of the public welfare, more than a third of the sentences to prison were of folks who hadn't the money to pay small fines.
The rich lawbreaker hired polished lawyers—if, indeed he had to go to that expense and bother of defending himself at all. But the poor devil down at the bottom of the ladder, when assessed a fine he couldn't pay, was railroaded to a musty cell and kept in the moral rot of a dungeon.
Prison reform surely needs stirring up in Massachusetts.
WHY GRIP IS DANGEROUS.
It is an Epidemic Catarrhal Fever Caused by a Bacillus that Generally Leaves the Patient Weak After the Acute Stage Has Passed.
Grip Patients Grateful to Peruna, the Expectorant Tonic.
Grip Patients Grateful to Peruna, the Expectorant Tonic.
Do not make the error of regarding grip as an exaggerated cold. There is a big difference between the two. Grip is an epidemic disease that poisons the vital organs. When a person has grip, the air passages are alive with millions of bacilli poisoning the blood. The infected person feels tired and exhausted.
Peruna is a Tonic Laxative.
It requires a good tonic laxative to keep the body of the patient as strong as possible to counteract the effect of the poisons created by the grip bacillus. An expectant tonic with some laxative qualities is the safest remedy. Such is Peruna. Beware especially of coal tar powders or tablets because they lessen the vitality of the patient. There is no specific for the grip.
Peruna has been used with good success in former grip epidemics. Indications point to the return of grip this winter. Do not fall to read the experience of former grip patients with Peruna. Mrs. Gentry Gates, 8219 First Ave., East Lake, Ala., writes: "I had a bad case of grip. I tried Peruna and it cured me. I can safely say it is a fine medicine." Mrs. Charles E. Wells, Sr., 230 South St., Delaware, Ohio, writes: "After a severe attack of la gripe I took Peruna and found it a good tonic." Ask Your Druggist for Free Perunus Lucky Day Almanac for 1914.
EVEN IN PRESENCE OF DEATH
Feminine Curiosity as to Another Woman's Wearing Apparel Had to Be Satisfied.
"Over death itself fashion rules supreme," said the woman. "I went to a funeral last week in Riverdale. I wore a new coat. I was not exactly one of the mourners, but somehow I got mixed up with the relatives and walked pretty well up toward the head of the procession. A cousin of the deceased walked just behind me. On the way into the church she leaned forward and whispered:
"Where did you get that coat?"
"I turned my head half way and told her.
"How much did you pay for it?
she asked.
"Forty-five dollars,' said I.
"I thought it cost more than that,
said' she
"Then we walked on as if nothing had happened. That is what I call discussing the fashions under difficult tles."
IS CHILD CROSS FEVERISH, SICK
Look, Mother! If tongue is coated, give "California Syrup of Figs."
Children love this "fruit laxative," and nothing else cleanses the tender stomach, liver and bowels so nicely.
A child simply will not stop playing to empty the bowels, and the result is they become tightly clogged with waste, liver gets sluggish, stomach sours, then your little one becomes cross, half-sick, feverish, don't eat, sleep or act naturally, breath is bad, system full of cold, has sore throat, stomach-ache or diarrhoea. Listen, Mother! See if tongue is coated, then give a teaspoonful of "California Syrup of Figs," and in a few hours all the constipated waste, sour bile and undigested food passes out of the system, and you have a well child again. Millions of mothers give "California Syrug of Figs" because it is perfectly harmless; children love it, and it never falls to act on the stomach, liver and bowels.
Ask at the store for a 50-cent bottle of "California Syrup of Figs," which has full directions for babies, children of all ages and for grown-ups plainly printed on the bottle. Adv.

POULTRY
DESTROY ALL AILING FOWLS
Disease Generally Attacks Most Susceptible of Flock and They Should Be Killed at Once.
Most ailing or diseased chickens or hens had better be killed than doctored. In the first place it is by far the quickest way. Again, it at once does away with any risk from contagion. Moreover a once sick hen, even if she does seem entirely recovered, seldom develops into a first class layer, and second class layers seldom pay.
There is another point, often overlooked. Disease generally attacks the weakest or most susceptible of the flock, and no flock was ever benefited by keeping in it birds of this kind when it is known they are such. It is true that now and then some trivial thing may all an otherwise strong bird, and it would be a mistake to give her no opportunity to recover. We have had cases of limberneck, humble foot or slight lameness or cold, that yielded promptly to treatment. A few drops of pain killer or other hot drink seems to work on limberneck even more quickly than on a cold, and opening the swelling and applying some cleansing healing wash has been about all we have ever found necessary for bumble foot.
WHY SOME POULTRYMEN FAIL
Lack of Thorough Investigation Before Taking Up Industry Has Been Usual Cause of Failure.
While there is a great profit in raising poultry, failure of special poultry farms is frequently reported. Lack of proper investigation before going into the enterprise has been the usual cause of lack of success. Then, too, perhaps, bad locations, lack of the necessary amount of capital, careless investment, improper choice of breeds and character of buildings had a great deal to do with the trouble.
Some of the essential features in the successful handling of a poultry farm are the development of the young stock, proper feeding, proper marketing, the right kind of labor, etc. Specialization in poultry is just
A Profitable Type.
as profitable as specialization in any other branch of agriculture. A careful account of expenses and receipts must be kept, so that a check can be made from time to time on the business. Moreover, poultry in small lots are very adaptable to people not in the best of health and particularly to women, who are adapted to the raising of farm fowls.
GRAIN NEEDED FOR POULTRY
Corn May Be Used as Food to Advantage, but It Must Be Supplemented With Something Else.
Grain is the staple food for poultry, and will be used for that purpose as long as fowls are kept on farms; but hens cannot give good results on grain alone. It is beneficial to them, says the Fruit Grower, and will be at all times relished, but the demand of the hens is such as will call for variety. In the shells of eggs, as well as their composition, are several forms of mineral matter and nitrogen, which can only be partially obtained from grain.
Even grains vary in composition and when fowls are fed on one kind for a long time, they begin to refuse it, as they may be oversupplied with the elements in the food partaken and lack the elements that are best supplied from some other source. For this reason they will accept a change of food, which is of itself an evidence that the best results from hens can only be obtained by a variety of food. Corn and wheat may be used as food with advantage, but it must be given as portion of the ration only, and not made exclusive articles of diet.

ECZEMA ITCHED AND BURNED
R. F. D. No. 8, Maryville, Tenn. "My baby, when three months old, took eczema on his face and head. His head and one side of his face were almost in a solid sore. The eczema at first was kind of a rash and then it broke out in water pimples and they would burst and looked very badly. It would itch and burn so badly that he could not rest at all and his hair just all fell out at once till his head was perfectly bald. He could not sleep at night and was very cross. "I tried remedies without any relief at all; he only got worse all the time until I used Cuticura Soap and Ointment. He had great relief the first application. He was soon cured and his hair began to grow back and now he has just beautiful fine hair and has no sign of eczema." (Signed) Mrs. H. D. Clabough, Jan. 28, 1913.

Highway Improvement
Improved Thoroughfares Tend to Prosperity of Farmers and Saving of Time Is Considerable.
Throughout the mountain region of western North Carolina the good roads sentiment has attained proportions and gathered such impetus as to sweep aside objections to expenditures for good roads, which is usually the case in all progressive movements of great moment. The movement had its inception in Asheville, North Carolina, when the Asheville and Buncombe County Good Roads association was organized by a few public spirited men who realized the loss to this beautiful mountain country by reason of lack of good roads which made it impossible for not only the people of this section, but the tourists and visitors from going from one point to another.
Immediately after the organization of this association, it raised $5,000 by subscription and regraded and macadamized the road from Asheville to Biltmore, a distance of a little more than two miles. This one piece of work in itself demonstrated to the

At the present time, macadam and sand clay roads have been and are being actively constructed throughout the entire "Land of the Sky" region in western North Carolina, there already being hundreds of miles of splendid hard surfaced roads winding about the mountains, across hills and valleys from one section to another. The immediate territory surrounding Asheville is covered with a veritable network of good roads which are of the greatest benefit to the farmers of the country and to the business people of the city, and of especial delight to the throngs of visitors both winter and summer to this most delightful all the year around resort.
Adjoining counties have caught the spirit and forces may be found building macadam and sand clay roads in all sections.

WONDERFUL GROWTH OF THE CANADIAN WEST
WONDERFUL GROWTH OF THE CANADIAN WEST
The Cities of Western Canada Reflect the Growth of the Country.
As one passes through Western Canada, taking the City of Winnipeg as a starting point, and then keeping tab on the various cities and towns that line the network of railways that cover the provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta, and covering the eyes as the gaze is bent on these it is felt that there must be "something of a country" behind it all. Then gaze any direction you like and the same view is presented. Field after field of waving grain, thousands and hundreds of thousands of them. Farm hands and laborers are at work converting the virgin prairie with more fields. Pasture land in every direction on which cattle are feeding, thriving and fattening on the grasses that are rich in both milk and beef properties, but it is unfortunate that more cattle are not seen. That, however, is correcting itself. Here we have in a large measure, the evidence of the wealth that helps to build up the cities, and it should not be forgotten that the cities themselves have as citizens, young men who have come from other parts, and brought with them the experience that has taught them to avoid the mistakes of eastern and southern cities. They also are imbued with the western spirit of enterprise, energy and push, and so Western Canada has its cities. At a banquet recently given in Chicago, a number of prominent citizens of Winnipeg were guests. Among the speakers was Mayor Deacon of Winnipeg. In speaking of the remarkable growth of that city, which in thirty years has risen from a population of 2,000 to one of 200,000, he spoke of it as being the gateway of commerce and continued:
"Now, how great that tide of commerce is you will have some conception of when I tell you that the wheat alone grown in the three prairie provinces this year is sufficient to keep a steady stream of one thousand bushels per minute continuously night and day going to the head of the lakes for three and one-half months, and in addition to that the oats and barley would supply this stream for another four months.
"The value of the grain crop alone grown in the three prairie provinces would be sufficient to build any of our great transcontinental railroads and all their equipment, everything connected with them, from ocean to ocean.
"Now, if we are able to do this with only ten per cent. of our arable land under cultivation what will our possibilities be when 288,000,000 of acres of the best land that the sun shines on is brought under the plow? Do you not see the portent of a great, vigorous, populous nation living under those sunny skies north of the 49th parallel? And if with our present development we are able to do as we are doing now, to purchase a million dollars' worth of goods from you every day of the year, what will our trade be worth when we have fully developed the country?
"Now, who shall assist us to develop this great empire that is there? Shall it be the alien races of southern Europe or shall it be men of our own blood and language? In the last three fiscal years no less than 358,000 American farmers have come into Western Canada, bringing with them goods and cash to the value of $350,000,000. And I want to say here that no man who sets foot on our shores is more entirely and heartily welcome than the agriculturist from the south.
"So long as these conditions remain I consider that this is the best guaranty that the sword will never again be drawn in anger between the two great branches of the Angl5-Saxon race. The grain crops of Western Canada in 1913 have well upheld the reputation that country has for abundant yields of all small grains.—Advertisement.

AS GREEK UNDERSTANDS IT
Student's Rendering of Shakespearean Phrase Somewhat Literal, But He Had the Idea.
A young Greek merchant of Washington, who has been taking lessons in English from a private tutor, has so far advanced that his teacher recently introduced him to the beauties—and perplexities—of Shakespeare. He was instructed to read a passage several times until he had the ideas firmly fixed in his mind and then, closing the book, to put these ideas into his own English, following as closely as his memory permitted the author's text.
He had read over a soliloquy of Othello's several times and was reproducing the Moor's somber thoughts with pretty fair approximation to the poet's words, but when he reached the last line: "Farewell, Othello's occupation's gone!" he stopped short, utterly at a loss. The original phrasing had quite escaped him. However, he had grasped the idea, for after a few seconds of frowning perplexity his brow cleared.
"Ah, I haf eet!" he exclaimed. "Eet ees this: 'So long! Othello's lost hees jop!'"—New York Evening Post.
IS EPILEPSY CONQUERED?
New Jersey Physician Said to Have Many Cures to His Credit.
Red Bank, N. J. (Special)—Advices from every direction fully confirm previous reports that the remarkable treatment for epilepsy being administered by Dr. Perkins of this city, is achieving wonderful results. Old and stubborn cases have been greatly benefitted and many patients claim to have been entirely cured.
Persons suffering from epilepsy should write at once to Dr. H. W. Perkins, Branch 49, Red Bank, N. J., for a supply of the remedy which is being distributed gratuitously—Adv.
The living skeleton wished another engagement at the museum, but the manager demurred.
"Perhaps I can work in something new," suggested the thin one.
"Well," observed the manager, "I've given you three engagements as a living skeleton; I reckon I can use you for one more if you will agree to go as a dead one." -Pulitzer's Magazine.

Now is a good time to begin cleaning up your premises for Spring.
Let we forget—the streets in the East End are simply horrible. What are you doing to make them better Mr. Property Owner?
And now since Chief Sam has been exposed, maybe his easy victims will heed the advice of the Tulsa STAR and other race papers and let him and his scheme alone.
There is a strong under current in the municipal political whirlpool which will spring a suprise a surprise on the fathers of the game this spring. Watch the prediction.
The fellow who digs a pitfall for his benefactor finally fall therein himself. There is anold saying that truth crushed to earth will rise again. Just watch developments.
Lest some be misled by impostors we desire to inform the public, that no one has ever invested one penny in this paper, as an investment, save A. J., SMITHERMAN. "Nuff Sed"
For the first time since the Mexican revolution a colored man was recently killed in Mexico, but even this one was killed by one of his countrymen, another colored man, a sentry in the rebel army.
We thank all of our friends and patrons for their kind interest and patronage during the year just closed, and we respectfully solicit your good will and continued patronage for the new year.
Gov. Cruce has issued a statement defending the democratic party for its acts during the present administration and shrewed politicians take it to mean that the governor will be a candidate for reelection next fall.
It's bad enough for a fellow to be inveterate liar, but when a fellow is a liar and a theif "too boot" and tries to hide his helish faults by unjustly assailing the character of his benefactor he is base indeed.
It's not good policy always to condemn a fellow on what "they" say about him. Give him the benefit of the doubt. Suspend judgment until you learn for yourself and you will some day be glad that you did.
Mr. Strafod D. Brodie, president of the State University at Norman, addressed the white teachers Association here last month and took up some of the same subjects discussed in the J. B. S. article which previously appeared in this paper. What do you know about that?
There is a growing demand in Tulsa for rent houses and he is a wise man who is able and will take advantage of this opportunity. 1000 houses could be rented in less than a week. People are active 1000 houses could be rented in less than a week. People are actually living in houses built with refused lumber, dry goods boxes, etc., for lack of something better.
According to reports a new paper is about to be launched. It will be strictly a religious paper devoted to the betterment of the community. Rev. J. F. Kersh will be the editor and Rev. F. E. White will be his associate. With these two War Horses behind the pen, the new paper should be a complete success.
The STAR wishes its prospective contemporary smooth-sailing all along the line.
A story is told in the Bible of a lot of fellows who one day took a woman to Christ, accusing her of a certain crime, and condemning her to death. But when the Savior had heard the testimony, he said: "Ye who are without sin, let him cast the first stone." When he looked up the women's acquiers had vanished. Every one of the rascals were guilty of the crime they wanted the woman put to death for Some of the same tribe of cussas are living in Tulsa today.
THE TULSA STAR Printing and Publishing Co., is an enterprise of Tulsa colored people having for its chief aim the betterment of our people in this community. To scaredly guard the best interest of our own people and at the same time conserve our own interest. We are here working for the people of this community and we are entitled to your support whether we get it or not; and you are entitled to as good service, quality and quantity, as the same money will affrod elsewhere. Look about you now and see if the people we are working for (and you are one of these) and see if you think they are doing their duty by us.
There are many kinds and styles of lies and various ways of telling them, but the blackest, meanest, vilest and most contemptable lie of all of them is that lie which is partially substantiated by certain circumstances or in a way corroberated by some few apparent facts. In other words, a screwed liar can take one or two admitted facts and ad to them certain circumstances, and weave a net of lies so conclusive, so convincing that he can make almost any man believe him, even against his will. Such li is the blackest of lies and they are usually told by the lowest, meanest, and most cowardly of liars.

STOMACH MISERY GAS. INDIGESTION
"Pape's Diapepsin" fixes sick, sour, gassy stomachs in five minutes.
Time it! In five minutes all stomach distress will go. No indigestion, heartburn, sourness or belching of gas, acid, or eructations of undigested food, no dizziness, bloating, or foul breath. Pape's Diapepsin is noted for its speed in regulating upset stomachs. It is the surest, quickest and most certain indigestion remedy in the whole world, and besides it is harmless.

Was It Force of Habit?
An amused smile fluttered over the features of Congressman Samuel J. Tribble of Georgia the other night when the talk topic in the lobby of a Washington hotel turned to the wonderful sayings of the kiddies. He said he was reminded of a recent incident. A fond father was taking his little six-year-old daughter to town in a motor car, and on stopping in front of a store he noticed that the drive against the strong wind had made the youngster's eyes water.
"Just a minute, Jessie," said father, wrapping a corner of his handkerchief around one finger and dabbing the little girl's eye. "Let me wipe that tear away."
"Say," was the rather amazing exclamation of Jessie, "what do you think that is—a push button?"
A GRATEFUL OLD MAN.

Among the enemies of the house fly, including fungus diseases, protozoa, nematodes, mites, spiders, the house centipede, parasitic insects, birds, and fly-catching rats, Mr. H. E. Ewing of Corvallis, Ore., describes in Entomological News a strange parasite which attaches itself to the ventral body wall of the fly. It belongs to the gamasid family, and as it feeds it hangs on in a manner nicely calculated not to throw the fly out of balance in flying.

MAKE HOUSEHOLD WORK EASY
Main Thing Is to Have the Articles Most Required Always Conven-
Sometimes it is the very little things, the things that appear most insignificant, that count for most in the making of household duties easy. To have things handy, right where they are within easy reach, is one of the things that should be the aim of every woman who must use certain utensils at every meal time.
A clever woman has devised a plan by which she avoids drying the plates. Over the sink rack, high enough so it will not interfere with anyone, has been built a plate cage, just a skeleton affair of chestnut, that has been stained to match the woodwork in the kitchen. The plates are slipped in between bars that permit them to stand upright, and as soon as they are washed and rinsed, they are placed in the cage where they drain and dry. This shortens the time of "doing" the dishes considerably. She tells me that other "cages" are to be made for other pieces of china that will help in the dish-washing problem. If you have a rack in which the knives, forks, and spoons that are in
SHELVES
Plate Cage and Knife Rack.
daily use can be slipped, and place up over the kitchen table, you will wonder how you ever could get along when they were stowed away in the dresser drawer. Three strips of one-half inch chestnut lumber, have square holes cut in them at intervals, and then they are glued together so that the holes will be opposite. These are screwed to shaped ends that in turn are fastened to the wall, and the knives, etc., are slipped in their place as soon as they come from the dish pan. One one-half inch chestnut or oak board with auger holes bored into it will do as well.
MAKE THE KITCHEN PRETTY
No Reason Why Most-Used Room In House Should Be Allowed to Look Neglected.
A woman who believes that a kitchen should be a pretty room wonders why most people do not hold the same opinion.
Of original tastes, she has devised this scheme of color and decoration for her kitchen. The walls she has had painted a bright sunshiny yellow, the woodwork and chairs a deep Prussian blue, the color of the pattern in her kitchen crockery and the cornflower pattern of her white tiled stove, which has a shining metal top.
"We are slaves to the view that a stove must be black and ugly," she says. "I got rid of this view in a visit to Holland, where I bought my pretty stove."
The windows of her kitchen are hung with sash curtains made of glass toweling barred in blue. At the center of their sills a little square bracket shelf has been attached, upon which stands a gay geranium.
Frozen Custard With Almonds.
Heat one quart of milk in double boiler. Add to this four well-beaten eggs. Stir constantly with wire egg beater until this thickens. Sweeten to taste and set aside to cool.
Take one pound of almonds, shell and blanch. Spread over a pan, add one teaspoonful of olive oil, place in a hot oven and allow them to get very brown. Cool and then put through a meat chopper. Add to custard also one-half teaspoonful of almond extract. When the custard is quite cold, freeze.
To Crisp Cereals.
I find an easy way to crisp the uncooked, ready-to-eat cereals is to place the amount required for one serving in an ordinary cornpopper and shake for a few minutes over a hot stove or lighted oil stove.

Thoughtful Wife.
A woman who had gone to a hospital to be operated upon wrote two postcards.
"Please send whichever one is appropriate afterwards," she told the nurse.
These were the cards:
"My Dear Husband: I have had the operation and am doing nicely. Will be at home in a week or two." "My Dear Husband: I have had the operation, and am sorry to tell you that I did not survive."—New York Evening Post.
Theory and Practice.
Little Beatrice was taking piano lessons and learning at the same time something of theory. Like many other children, she disliked practicing her finger exercises. One day her mother, who was working in an upstairs room, noticed a sudden lull in the playing. She looked down and saw Beatrice sitting perfectly motionless.
"Beatrice, why don't you practice?" she called down sharply.
"I am practicing, mother," replied the child with perfect self-assurance; "I'm practicing my theory."—New York Evening Post.
SELF DELUSION. Many People Decelved by Coffee.
We like to defend our indulgencies and habits even though we may be convinced of their actual harmfulness. A man can convince himself that whiskey is good for him on a cold morning, or beer on a hot summer day—when he wants the whiskey or beer. It's the same with coffee. Thousands of people suffer headache and nervousness year after year but try to persuade themselves the cause is not coffee—because they like coffee.
"While yet a child I commenced using coffee and continued it," writes a Wis. man, "until I was a regular coffee fiend. I drank it every morning and in consequence had a blinding headache nearly every afternoon.
"My folks thought it was coffee that ailed me, but I liked it and would not admit it was the cause of my trouble, so I stuck to coffee and the headaches stuck to me.
"Finally, the folks stopped buying coffee and brought home some Postum. They made it right (directions on pkg.) and told me to see what difference it would make with my head, and during that first week on Postum my old affliction did not bother me once. From that day to this we have used nothing but Postum in place of coffee — headaches are a thing of the past and the whole family is in fine health."
"Postum looks good, smells good, tastes good, is good, and does good to the whole body."
Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Read "The Road to Well-ville," in pkgs.
Postum now comes in two forms: Regular Postum—must be well boiled. Instant Postum—is a soluble powder. A teaspoonful dissolves quickly in a cup of hot water and, with cream and sugar, makes a delicious beverage instantly. Grocers sell both kinds. "There's a Reason" for Postum.

Bivalves Would Have Little Prospect of Escape if Karl Really Got Started Romancing.
"Talk of opening oysters," said old Hurricane. "why, nothing's easier, if you only know how."
"And how's how?" inquired Starlight.
"Scotch snuff," answered old Hurricane, very sententiously. "Scotch snuff. Bring a little of it ever so near their noses, and they'll sneeze their lids off."
"I know a genius," observed Karl, "who has a better plan. He spreads the bivalves in a circle, seats himself in the center, and begins spinning a yarn. Sometimes it's an adventure in Mexico, sometimes a marvelous stock operation on the exchange.
"As he proceeds, the 'natives' get interested—one by one they gape with astonishment at the tremendous whoppers which are poured forth, and as they gape my friend whips them out, peppers 'em, and swallows them." "Tha'll do," said Starlight, with a long sign. "I wish we had a bushel of the bivalves here now; they'd open easy."

TAKES OFF DANDRUFF HAIR STOPS FALLING
Girl! Try This! Makes Hair Thick,
Glossy, Fluffy, Beautiful—No
More Itching Scalp.
Within ten minutes after an application of Danderine you cannot find a single trace of dandruff or falling hair and your scalp will not itch, but what will please you most will be after a few weeks' use, when you see new hair, fine and downy at first—yes—but really new hair—growing all over the scalp.
A little Danderine immediately doubles the beauty of your hair. No difference how dull, faded, brittle and scraggy, just moisten a cloth with Danderine and carefully draw it through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. The effect is amazing—your hair will be light, fluffy and wavy, and have an appearance of abundance; an incomparable luster, softness and luxuriance.
Get a 25 cent bottle of Knowlton's Danderine from any store, and prove that your hair is as pretty and soft as any—that it has been neglected or injured by careless treatment—that's all—you surely can have beautiful hair and lots of it if you will just try a little Danderine. Adv.
God or Devil?
Commissioner Howard, chief of staff to General Bramwell Booth of the Salvation Army, tells a story with charming frankness against himself. Traveling in a country district, he had one night, with his secretary, to accept the hospitality of a peasant friend. She endeavored to make up for the narrowness of the bed by placing two boxes alongside, and on taking her visitors into the guest chamber, showed that in her mind the primitive condition of things was capable of philosophic consideration, for she pointedly remarked, "There you are. If you belong to God, you will be all right, while, if you belong to the devil, it is too good for you. Good night."

VARIOUS FOOD VALUES
(IMPORTANT MATTER UNDERST
MATED BY HOUSEKEEPER.
Dishes Served at Family Table Should Be Constitution Builders as Well as Palatable—Sweets Have a Definite Purpose.
The average housekeeper selects her food in a very careless manner. She buys coal and wood for the heat they provide and fabrics for their durability, but she gives very little thought to the efficiency of foodstuffs. She merely gets what is liked and what happens to be in the market and is easily prepared.
It is certain that in years to come, when housekeeping, or "domestic science," has taken the high position toward which it is gradually moving, each housekeeper will be compelled to have her little volume on "Food Values" on the shelf with her book of recipes, and she will consult it even more frequently than she does the other books, because she will have been taught that the importance of food lies in its energy-giving properties.
But until that time comes we must struggle along ourselves and look at the buying and cooking of foods from a readjusted point of view—one which includes the value they have as constitution builders as well as their palatable qualifications.
We must teach ourselves to choose foods wisely, regarding rather the essentials than the nonessentials, and to use discrimination in the processes of preparing them.
Say that we need so many thousand units to live and work. Well, then, our food, properly chosen and prepared, should help to supply the necessary units. You cannot make bricks without straw or bread without flour or energy without the fuel to provide it.
It would be impossible to go deeply into the food-value question in a short talk, but there is one essential which must be mentioned because of the change of view regarding it.
When we were all children we were given sweets only as a sort of reward for having eaten the plainer foods. Sweets were not looked upon as necessary, but rather as verging on the injurious. Now we have learned that sweets, far from being harmful, are beneficial and productive of energy. There are so many health-giving constituents in the ordinary pudding that it is far more advisable for the dessert of the average child than rich plies or pastries. Almost all puddings require eggs and milk, and these add a goodly number of units to the column.
There are also many delicious fruit puddings which contain many more strengthening elements than the plain fruit itself. And yet a decade of years ago the pudding would have been dealt out to the younger members of the family with a sparing and grudging hand, while they might have partaken freely of the fruit itself.
Mothers are now beginning to realize the possibilities of desserts as strength-giving factors in their children's lives.
Fruit Glace.
Phepare sections of orange free from all white skin, stem grapes, pare and quarter peaches and stick a little skewer or wooden toothpick into each. Rub butter over a large platter, using just as little as possible and make it oily, or use a little olive oil. Cook one cup each of sugar and water together for five minutes, add one-quarter teaspoonful of cream tartar and cook half an hour, or until tested in cold water, it becomes brittle. Set the saucer into a larger one of hot water and dip the pieces in until covered with the sirup. Spread on the platter and after hardening a little take out the skewers.
Bran Bread.
Set a soft sponge at night as for white bread; in the morning take two cups of bran, molisten well with cold water, and let it boil for twenty minutes. When luke-warm add this to two cups of the white sponge; also add one-half cup of molasses, one cup of raisins, two tablespoonfuls of lard, and salt unless the white sponge has already been salted. Mix stiff with white flour and knead as you would white bread. When light place in pans and raise to double its bulk; bake one hour.
Dark Nut Cake.
One cupful sugar, one-half cupful butter, one and one-half cupful milk, two cupfuls flour, one teaspoonful cream of tartar, one-half teaspoonful soda, two spoonful molasses, two eggs, cinnamon, nutmeg and one cupful chopped walnuts.

SAGE TEA AND SULPHUR DARKENS YOUR GRAY HAIR
Look Years Younger! Try Grandma's Recipe of Sage and Sulphur and Nobody Will Know.
Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compounded, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray; also ends dandruff, itching scalp and stops falling hair. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussey and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy." You will get a large bottle for about 50 cents. Everybody uses this old, famous recipe, because no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, and after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy and you look years younger. —Adv.

[Picture of a man with a mustache and a suit].
The above is the likeness of Bob Rogers, manager of the People's Theatre, who has done much to popularize the vaudeville business in Tulsa.
Mr. Rogers is surpassing any of his predecessors in the business here in giving his patrons high-class entertainment, both in the picture features and in vaudeville.
Mrs. Rogers, his wife, who, he admits, is the life of the business, with her smiles and kindness is ever ready to note the pleasure and displeasure of their patrons, and this accounts for their continued success.
